Today marks the end of one of the most interesting companies ever to try and sell anime in the US: Bandai Visual. For a while, they have tried to sell anime at exorbitant prices. Like….19.95 for 1 episode, 39/49 for 2/3 episodes, and no dub.
That didn’t sit well with many anime fans. The only DVD I own from Bandai Visual is GARune #1. (Mainly cause I found it for 14.99 at Best Buy.
The company, which I still dub a “Stupid anime company”, has only made 1.1 Million Dollars the whole year. I believe any other company made a heck of a lot more than that, and that only proves that they acted horribly to the US fans.
Hopefully, the licenses that are liquidated(Especially GARune, Sola, and True Tears) to Bandai are still brought over.
Note- This has nothing to do with the timer. It still clicks toward the Fanime panel.
