FUNimation Entertainment Announces New Acquisitions at Anime Boston

Flower Mound, TX – April 7, 2012 - FUNimation Entertainment announced today at Anime Boston it has acquired the rights to 3 series : Jormungand, Lupin III~Mine Fujiko to Iu Onna~ and Is this A Zombie? of the Dead.

A brief synopsis for each series is listed below:

Jormungand - A ruthless arms dealer on a quixotic quest for world peace. A child soldier born into chaotic conflict. Their lives will intertwine as they journey together through the seedy underbelly of the world's arms market. An intense action-packed series that's sure to keep you on the edge of your seat! FUNimation has acquired both parts of the series. The first part will air April 2012, and the second part will air October 2012.

Lupin III ~Mine Fujiko to Iu Onna~- What happened when Lupin III met Fujiko Mine for the first time? Find out in the first new chapter of the Lupin III franchise in 25 years!

Is This A Zombie? of The Dead – Aikawa Ayumu was revived as a zombie by the cute necromancer Eucliwood Hellscythe. After the zany, madcap adventures in the first season of Is This a Zombie? ended, Ayumu thought his life might finally get back to normal, or as normal as it can be for a zombie. However, destiny has other plans for him. Some guys just can't catch a break. Watch the second season of this hilarious comedy where anything goes!

Full episodes will begin on www.niconico.com/anime & www.funimation.com during spring 2012.

I'll be sure to watch the simulcast for this.

Re: FUNimation licenses Is This a Zombie? of the Dead

I wasn't really planning to watch the second season of this despite watching all of the first as it streamed on Crunchyroll, so the fact that this one will only be on FUNimation and Nico's player confirms that I'll be passing on it. Pretty obvious pickup, though.

NicoNico should really work on that... Is there any hope?
