LoginFunimation rescues Geneon DVD titles from limbo

For any anime fan it was a bad day when they found out Geneon USA, a sizable anime licensor went under. It left several anime series partially released and several others would probably never see the light of day in the states. As well as a huge backlog of older titles. Apparently Funimation is willing to release several of Geneon's titles.
Hopefully this means that I can finally get my hands on Second Barrage and the rest of When they Cry.

I'm glad I got all those Geneon DVDs after all.
Funi's on a roll lately.

I'd totally buy a complete box set of Master Keaton :(
(The only reason I didn't buy the singles when they were cheap was because I decided I needed Fighting Spirit instead. Now that's a show no one bought)

I was going to buy the DVDs during that Geneon sale, but my hopes and dreams were crushed when I learned Rightstuf doesn't ship to Canadian PO boxes. Oh, the humanity!

I've seen them at the Amazon Marketplace for less than $30 too.
But Rightstuf is usually where I buy my anime dvds.
Though when I do walk around in the dealer's room at conventions I tend to see them in bargain bins there...
