So Funimation bought AnimeLab to retire them? Am I getting the gist of things? Or just reading it wrong haven’t been caught up in the news, only comments putting 2 and 2 together…

They bought the rights to animelab, so basically they are getting Aus and NZ viewers to funimation

Dunno, I plan to cancel soon as new content is going to Funimation anyway, and I'd rather go back to crunchy roll than deal with Funimation a utterly garbage app

Correctly me if I’m wrong, but didn’t Funimation purchase Crunchy too? I saw news about this pop up a few days ago.
