VOD Fridays – FUNimation Channel (1/1/2010)
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
We’ve made it out of the 2000s decade. Now its full steam ahead into a new decade. The anime industry went through a lot of changes in the last decade; having gone through its ups and its downs. I think the most important thing that happened here in the US was seeing anime becoming more accessible to viewers – whether it was through VOD, streaming or linear. We’re working to continue expanding and this new year we’ll unveil some new features on The FUNimation Channel. Stay tuned…
Here’s a smathering of what’s up today on Comcast On Demand:
Comcast On Demand —–> The Cutting Edge —–> FUNimation Anime
- Soul Eater eps 4-6 (back-to-back eps special)
- NANA eps 24-27
- Dragonaut eps 16-18
- Spice and Wolf eps 9-11
- D. Gray-man eps 43-45

Got any anime-related resolutions for the new year? Feel free to post them here and maybe if you say it and write it a lot, you’ll be able to make that goal. 
I resolve to run a little faster and get healthier while watching some anime. 
VOD Fridays – FUNimation Channel (12/4)
Last month was a bit of a doozy for VOD. Stuff got changed. Things went missing. Bonus eps never came to fruition 
. And to top it off, its the holidays. By now, we are hoping the dust settled in most Comcast cities and that they are receiving the anime titles.
Just to remind everyone – all anime titles under FUNimation Anime On Demand are now in one place: The Cutting Edge category. Free and PPV VOD are living together in one place, in peaceful harmony. From time to time, you will find a title from FUNimation Anime featured under the Movies/Movie Collections section. That usually happens when Comcast wants to do program stunts for a month.
Here’s what’s up on Comcast VOD:
The Cutting Edge/FUNimation Anime
- Spice and Wolf eps 6 – 8
- NANA eps 21 – 23
- Dragonaut eps 13 – 15
- HunterXHunter eps 11 – 13
- D. Gray-man eps 40 – 42
- Soul Eater eps 1 – 3 *Special back-to-back airing
- Linebarrels of Iron eps 1 – 3 *Special back-to-back airing
- xxxHolic ep 17
- Air Gear eps 13 – 14
- Negima! ep 12
- Shuffle! ep 12
- Tsubasa Chronicle eps 13 – 14
- Fruits Basket eps 17 – 18
- Solty Rei ep 11
- Ah! My Goddess eps 21 – 24
- Black Cat eps 3 – 4
- Glass Fleet eps 9 – 12
- Case Closed ep 46 – 47
SOUL EATER! Yes. Merry Christmas!

VOD Fridays – FUNimation Channel (11/13)
So its Friday the 13th and your word of the day is – TRISKAIDEKAPHOBIA. I hope you don’t have that condition because that would make your day suck. You know, I just realized there are three words within that word – “risk”, “aid” and of course “phobia”. Its a Greek root word. If you include the Greek pre-fix “tris” I guess you can say the word is made up of four words all smushed into one word to mean this one day. Gotta love the Greeks! Can you tell I’m an etymology freak? Ah, to be an English major.
And now about Spice and Wolf. It’s been pushed to air tomorrow – Saturday. A funny thing happened to one of those eps that operations was hoping to get a replacement in time but it never made it through. Let’s think lovely thoughts and hope this replacement ep is gonna make it through to operations today. Give off good vibes, please. I know its tough, but if we think positive thoughts maybe just maybe all those eps will finally air. :D
Yesterday I posted about changes to the Comcast VOD menu. Those changes happen next week but some cities have started to switch over and in some cases missing updates and episodes. Right now, I’m speaking with operations to get an ideal if some of those cities are doing anything about those missing shows. If you noticed a lot of titles missing under The Cutting Edge/FUNimation Anime section, follow the instructions in this post and I’ll try to get some answers from Comcast.
Here’s a list of what’s slated to air today on Comcast VOD:
- Dragonaut eps 1 -5 Special back-to-back
- Blassreiter eps 12-15
- Nabari no Ou eps 16-18
- Negima! ep 9
- Shuffle! ep 9
- Fruits Basket eps 15-16
- Case Closed ep 42
