Here are the Placeholder websites for FUNimation's many shows, as well as their logos:

Peach Girl:
http://www.peachgirlanime.com/

xxxHolic:
http://www.xxxholiconline.com/

Tsubasa:
http://www.tsubasaonline.com/

I dont really like the Tsubasa logo..
Also, I would never be able to find these sites, as FUNi seems to be putting ...anime.com and ..online.com instead

So, by all appearances, FUNimation only has the XXXHolic movie and not the TV series.

Hm, the Tsubasa one seems to be exactly the same as the one used for the English manga version. Perhaps they had talks with Del Rey and decided it should look the same for consistency?

I do remember FUNi showing several logo ideas for this show at Otakon, with one in particular that I really liked, but this one isn't bad either. Now I just wanna see a cast list and I'll be happy.

That's what it seems like so far. But it also might be that they have not have announced the TV series.

That's what they're releasing first, anyway. If you'll recall, the XXXHolic movie was released in Japan before the series itself, too. I still think chances are pretty good FUNi already has the series. (Actually, I know they do. One of my online friends lives near Fort Worth, so she hears stuff sometimes)

And apparently they are working on A LOT of unannounced shows according to their reps lingering around. I cant wait to hear what shows!

I assume the shows they sent out C&D's for.

Well, placeholder pages should mean SOMETHING I suppose... Though I'd be happier if there was a release date for at least Tsubasa. ><

It seems that Funi is using Del Rey's logos for both Tsubasa and XXXholic. I think that's smart since the manga has been out in the US for quite some time already, so it's a good way to cross promote.

Well, for Tsubasa at least. The logo Del Rey uses for xxxholic is the original Japanese logo so it doesn't quite "belong" to them.

they also like to interchange ".tv" and ".com"

Hopefully this means they aren't all too far away. I wonder how they're gonna plan on releasing the Tsubasa series, and the Tsubasa/xxxHOLiC movies? Logic would dictate the series goes first, so that you know about the characters inovlved in the Tsubasa movie.

Hmm. It's good that they're using Del Rey's logo for cross-promotional purposes, but as a nitpicky fan it bothers me slightly that they're calling it "Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle" when the anime is just called "Tsubasa Chronicle".

BUT, it's better than doing something like removing "Chronicle" and just having "Tsubasa Reservoir", right? ;) My point is, at least "Tsubasa Chronicle" is still in there. And it's the name of the manga, and since the majority of anime keep the same name as the manga did, I don't have a problem with it.

I also like how they're going with Del Rey's logo. This way, when fans see the DVDs in stores, they'll recognize the logo and it may convinve them to check it out if they liked the TC manga. Good marketing strategy.

Awesome links. I've been looking forward greatly to seeing Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle out here since I first heard about it. Being one who is way behind on Manga, as in not current on what's out and what's not, I didn't realize the Manga was out either. :)

Probaby because it's likely an expensive license and Funi have been the ones with the money to spend lately.

I wouldn't mind if it was Funi, but I would pray that they spend a little more of that money to consider hiring NYAV Post to continue the dub.

Well, ADV hasn't been a slouch in the spending dept either. Sgt. Frog wasn't cheap either I bet. Geneon may also have some cash for AMG! S2, but they should save it for Kanon 2k6 instead imo. ;)

Back to xxxHOLiC....

Those pics look great! I wonder if the movies will be released separately. I'm not a TRC person.

They have the xxxholic.tv domain so that may be for the TV series, but who knows :) :P

Well, that and it is a Kodansha title. And the rest of Funi's aquisitions have also been Kodansha titles. Sort of makes sense to me. /shrug.

I spotted that too, had to double check to be certain myself, but it does seem very coincidental to me...
And there is no such thing as a coincidence, only "Hitsuzen", as I'm sure Yuuko would be quick to remind us.

Geneon then Bandai then Viz then ADV on my licensee wishlist for AMG S2.

Kanon re-make from either (or Media Blasters & ADV).

Geneon for the Kanon2k6 remake if not then ADV has my vote. Hey, Geneon can continue with the I've Sound (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I've_Sound) love that they've shown so far (KOTOKO, MELL).

But wouldn't you have thought that if FUNi had AMG! S2, then a C&D would have been sent already?

Well, not if the "rumors" of Media Blasters having the second season were thought to have enough of an effect I suppose.

It'd be nice if whomever does have the license would just come out and say it already -.-;

I hope not. While the xXxholic movie has length, the Tsubasa one is only 30 minutes long and definitely doesn't warrant its own DVD.

I guess they're putting the two movies on one dvd (since the movies are listed together on the website). The only way they could get me pay for the Tsubasa movie separately is if Carrie Savage voiced Sakura.
