Anime Boston - Day 2 - Part 3 - BECK ANNOUNCED

FUNimation made the public announcement on FMP 2nd Raid, but that was completely overshadowed with the MAJOR SURPRISE for this fan. BECK!!! At the convention last year, rumor was leaked from other companies over this licence. However, FUNimation never made anything official the entire year. I predicted that the issue came out of the legal issues for the many songs, and I was planning to ask them about it. Well, they answered my question before I even asked it, and sure enough, that was indeed the problem. But they said that they worked out all the legal issues, so all the music and logo’s are completely worked out. This is going to be one awesome release!

I’ll write more about my thoughts on that later as well as the other news from FUNimation later.

  1. This is awesome. My friend and I wanted the anime badly. This news will surely raise the morale of Beck fans.

  2. My favorite part of the panel was when they turned on the video screen and it said “BECK Opening Sequence.” As soon as that came up, it was like an orgy of excitement.
