Read all about it, folks. This means no DVD for Bonds Beyond Time (honestly, someone's gonna sub it someday, anyway) and the dubs for GX Season 4, 5D's, and ZEXAL are up in the air. I don't think it will affect the card game, though. Just the anime. Thoughts? Fluffiness (talkcontribs) 22:30, March 29, 2011 (UTC)

Indeed, 4Kids had nothing to do with cards. The cards fixing was all of UDE/Konami's responsible. But the DVD will still release, since it's already released in THEATER. --FredCat 23:15, March 29, 2011 (UTC)
perhaps funimation will pick up the slack and do things right. either that or tv tokyo will just open up a us division and start producing the dubs themselves, much in the same way as konami took over US distribution of the tcg.

Oh, that's an idea. --FredCat 23:57, March 29, 2011 (UTC)
4kids conspired with funimation on this. I'm sure they aren't in good standings with Konami either right now.--Helix-king (talkcontribs) 02:43, March 30, 2011 (UTC)
my understanding of the situation as it has been documented leads me to believe that funimation may not have been aware of the backdoor deals 4kids was trying to make. if funimation plays dumb to this, they have a good shot at getting the rights to all the shows 4kids had. and as long as they learn from the mistakes 4kids made, funimation should be able to keep those distro rights, unlike 4kids.

And here, I thought 4Kids might actually do a less egregious job when the time comes to dub Zexal. Well, I hope the company that substitutes them (if any) would do a better job. --Gadjiltron (talkcontribs) 03:03, March 30, 2011 (UTC)

Well so much for the movie being released on DVD. Serves 4 Kids Right! Irohanihoheto (talkcontribs) 03:08, March 30, 2011 (UTC)

Sigh...

Guess I'm never gonna get to see the movie then.

...sigh... (and here I was hoping that 4kids would finally be able to do GX season 4, too) Karkashan (talkcontribs) 04:17, March 30, 2011 (UTC)
