news.toonzone.net/article.php?ID=4097*bangs head on table* Sorry, it may not be that great until after the 1st games adaptation, but it does not deserve the treatment that Rockman.EXE got. V-Joe deserves better.

I don't get why people get all weirded out by that fact. The V-Joe anime is mainly comedy, and mainly comedy that plays on Joe's ignorance or stupidity or, in the more recent episodes, on Joe's unfaithfulness to Silvia.

I stopped watching at episode 5, with Gran Bruce. I just got bored of the series. When does it get interesting?

At 23 it starts to get interesting. But that's only because of Joe's fight with Alastor and the fact that ep 23 is the only episode so far that has decent action AND animation. In the episodes beyond 26, Junior actually can transform rather than faking it, and (Sexy) Silvia is also there.

I bet Geneon is getting a rude awaking on how their property is handled on KidsWB as compared to CN.

Is this 4kids licenced? I don't know who "Geneon Entertainment" is, if it's the original producer or not. I found out about this series like a year ago, so I think it's been out in Japan for awhile. Also, any idea if it will use the original character voices from the games?

Didn't we already know this? Like, months ago?
And how much of a difference does it make that the show is airing on KidsWB? I'd think the majority of the dub's quality or lack thereof would be determined by this "Geneon Entertainment" they've ordered the episodes from.

Geneon = the company formerly named Pioneer(who released most of the Tenchi Muyo series) They are also the ones who I believe funded Samurai Champloo and distributed Paranoia Agent. We heard of Geneon aquiring the rights to VJ anime ages ago, but no one thought it would go to KidsWB. Andy, the thing is people are probably miffed is that KidsWB has a history of putting strict censorship restrictions on airing anime on the block(stricter than 4Kids TV even). Not to mention, at times they don't play the episodes in cronological order(continutity out the window). I think people here probably won't make such a fuss if this was going to air on CN instead. |

Geneon is a good group. And didn't they merge with Funimation a while ago?
And I never liked Sexy Sylvia. She just isn't that sexy. :E

Pioneer/Geneon grabbed and did a decent job on a few series I have on DVD. I'll vouche for them.

Okay, a rated T for Teen game (which includes strip clubs and such) has an anime adaption that will appear on a children's block to promote the sale of the game.
I fail to see the logic in the decision.

I have no problem with normal sylvia, especially in the pink outfit, but I never liked the design on her viewtiful costume much.

On television, the animation market for teenagers is pretty much non-existant. So it's either kids or adults.
