Move it, bucko Group: Advanced Members Posts: 714 Member No.: 2,311 Joined: Jul 20th 2004 Location: Update Profile | FUNimation posted a poll recently about what anime we would like to see released from them, and lo and behold there is an option for A REDUB OF INITIAL D. As in, no crappy nicknames or rap music. Here's the poll. |

More NEGATIVE than a black hole Group: ADMINISTRATOR Posts: 19,345 Member No.: 12,263 Joined: Sep 12th 2005 Location: Update Profile | I made quite a long comment in the poll about how it would be financially beneficial for them to put the studio time into remaking Initial D. As they said "all of Initial D", I suspect this means they are possibly soaking up the rights to Third and Fourth stages. I love FUNimation. |

Yup they're pretty damn sweet!! I also like VIZ and what they did with Death Note, to be specific, but that's another thing. | ||

Were you expecting something else? Group: Advanced Members Posts: 3,921 Member No.: 20,929 Joined: Oct 14th 2006 Location: Some place in South-East Asia | Yep. FUNi's an awesome company. I voted for a redubbed Initial D too, and it'd be awesome if all these votes did result in one. Then I could probably watch a version of First Stage on Animax that doesn't have subpar voice acting, and a version of Second Stage where some of the Japanese names aren't pronounced like "Key-oh-itchy" or "Ree-Oh-Soo-Keh" (aside from that, the Animax English dub of Second Stage is actually good). Not to mention: I could actually get to watch Third Stage and Fourth Stage on TV as well, in English. |

Just to be clear, the Animax release was JUST Filipino right? I never looked too much into it. This post has been edited by ryosuke63 on May 21 2009, 10:42 PM | ||

IDW's Corolla Rolla' Group: Advanced Members Posts: 503 Member No.: 13,208 Joined: Oct 2nd 2005 Location: [=(86)=] | Just got my vote in. I had to go with the option of a redub of Sailor Moon, too. Cars, and chicks in sailor fuku! But seriously, if it hadn't been for Sailor Moon, I wouldn't know what anime is, seeing as it was the very first series I ever saw. And then came Initial D... |

They already have distribution rights to Initial D as-is. A re-dub and release of Third, Fourth and both Battle Stages would be freaking amazing. | ||

Move it, bucko Group: Advanced Members Posts: 714 Member No.: 2,311 Joined: Jul 20th 2004 Location: Update Profile | FUNimation tends to release series in half season sets. So chances are if they do get a hold of ID it will probably be done this way (with a boxset coming later) |
