FUNimation Reveals New Acquisition Possibilities

The “Spotlight” on FUNimation’s main page now links to a New Anime Survey listing 13 of this spring’s 40 new Japanese anime television series, presumably all titles that FUNimation is considering as acquisition possibilities. (“Basara” is presumably Sengoku Basara and not the 1998 anime series titled, simply, “Basara.”)

There are some intriguing mysteries within the selected titles. FUNimation has already announced distribution rights to current and future Gonzo productions, yet Shangri-La is listed while Arad Senki ~Slap Up Party~ isn’t. Furthermore, Bandai Entertainment has domestic distribution rights to the first Hayate the Combat Butler series while FUNimation is evidently interested in the second season.
