FUNimation Acquirs Anime BACCANO!
0 comments Posted by Amber - The Gilded Pen at 2:09 PM Labels: anime, Freebies, FUNimationFUNimation has acquired the anime rendition of Ryohgo Narita's light novel series BACCANO! The series, set in 1930's prohibition America, is a compilation of several unrelated story lines that criss-cross each other but focus mainly on 'the hostage crises' aboard The Flying Pussyfoot. Classic mafias, speakeasies, immortals and alchemy. What's not to love?
Luckily for us, FUNimation has posted the first episode on their web page. For those of you who don't have patience to discover it yourself, the password is FLYINGPUSSYFOOT. What are you waiting for? Go check it out!
No news on whether-or-not the light novels will be translated into English or not, though.
Ok, I am not announcing that every publisher has quit publication or that there are no new releases this month. If I where, I doubt my eyes would be dry enough to see what I'm writing and you'd get a post full of much and letters (kinda like those IMs or Tweets you get when my cat decides to post). I'm just here to let you know that while the site is down and my computer is out for the count, I will not be able to post the new releases each month.
I'm hopping to get everything set to rights ASAP, so in the mean time: fingers crossed!
