    Sorry, but unless their channel on irc (#sonchou-fansubs on rizon) is lying, "Sonchou WILL CONTINUE to sub FMA"

    So, yeah, I did check for myself [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

    This is something i don't get about some people.

    Granted someone will just do DVD rips, but thats even wary.

    You would think when something gets licensed on R1, people will be happy that it comes out on DVD, it comes to your market, hell, FMA will even be on TV.

    But no, most are not.

    Most condem fansub groups for quiting subbing something once it gets licensed.

    Myself, i buy the DVD's i want, im not saying GO OUT AND BUY EVERY ANIME DVD.

    But if you like a series enough to go download it, complain when it gets licensed, ask for another group once a group stops it after being licensed, then why not buy the DVD's when they come out?

    This is getting quite distrubing. Its a recent trend, i assume if someone like ADV gets naruto, this will boil over into people spamming aone, and etc.

    Its a nasty new trend to not want something to get licensed, why would you not want something licensed?

    Sure you may not be able to collect fansubs of it, but who cares?

    Soon you'll get DVD video, professional sub and dub and the works.

    Some people make the argument, "well i hate dubs, so i don't buy the DVD's, its not the way the creatore wanted you to see it"

    Neither is it with english subs numnuts.

    To sum my long winded rant up, im not mad at people who love a series and make a comotion when it gets licensed, im mad at the people who once something gets licensed, continue to carry on , bad mouth groups who drop it, and so on.

    i like fan subs because i dont have enough money to buy dvds and theyre usually 30 bucks for 2-3 eps, for me i hope naruto doesnt get licensed anytime soon.

    In all honesty, Lego, the reason I hate licenses on shows I watch from fansub groups is the wait (usually a year or more) before we see anything from the company. I'll definatley buy FMA R1 DVD's, but I can't be into 31 episodes and say, "okay, next year, I'll finish it!".

    I understand where you're coming from, now see where I'm coming from.

    RE: Full Metal Licensed

    I just saw the trailers for FMA at the FUNimation site. It seems really promising. We might not half to worry about it being given the DB treatment....I hope [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

    RE: Full Metal Licensed

    The only reason they stop is that Funimation would go Metalica on their ass so anyone and everyone that has had any contact with the illigaly sub eps would be arrested and fined a huge sum of money. thats why they stop. Thye wouldn't half to stop subing naruto since it's not lisenced in the US yet, they just couldn't because they'd either be in jail or to broke to care about subing.
    no, actually, the possibility of that happening is rare. Some fansubbers will stop because they want people to buy it, others, will keep going. The companies won't lose any money anyway, and, being as they are much smarter than RIAA and Metallica, they realize that the free distribution will actually increase their sales because the people will want to support the anime creators...

    Down with RIAA hehehe, sy, had to throw that in


    Oh, and i'm not saying AKeep should continue, its their policy. I'll just get it from somewhere else and buy the DVD's later when they do come out

    RE: Full Metal Licensed

    Yeah... i dont think they stopped because of being scared of being caught... I think that's simply their morality policy....

    you can't even @find licensed anime on their channel, so that means they dont approve of fansub distribution if it's licensed regardless

    RE: Full Metal Licensed

    yeah yeah yeah. . . Well then get your own countrymen/women to do fansubs instead of putting all the pressure on us Americans who have to deal with our money grubbing companies breathing down our necks.

    The licencing of anime is part of a business industry, part of our economic system. Economic systems are dependant on something called MONEY. If you don't have it, you don't get the products. These anime series are made in Japan for Japanese TV, not for American and European markets. They know that they can make more money by selling distribution rights to companies over here, and they do. But since there isn't room on the airwaves for every anime series that gets licenced, and because most Americans wouldn't want to read their TV shows, we have to pay to see them subbed on DVD. It's part of the economic cycle of importing anime. That's the way it goes.

    I think the whole fansub system has spoiled too many people into this false belief that they have the right to have free anime. Fansubs are a privilage. These people take their own time to put these things out for free, and to avoid the risk of being caught breaking the law they stop subbing when the series gets licenced. If they feel that it's worth the risk to continue, then they're sticking their necks out for you on top of their regular efforts. And because so many people take this for granted, they get spoiled so whenever a series gets licenced and people stop fansubbing it, they get all bent out of shape when a few years back, the only way to get anime was to pay to get the videos or DVDs. Dont' be such little brats. You can't always get what you want.

    Although it sucks to have FMA licensed, I'm wondering if the FMA game on PS2 will get translated to english for a US release.

    its only been licensed for america, its still legal for me [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] so any fansubber not from the US can still sub without too much worry of being fined, altho more than likely its going to be in swedish or french etc
