| Baseball anime Ookiku Furikabutte! licensed by FUNimation | Sat, 21 Jun 2008 |
|
US anime distributor FUNimation have continued their recent licensing spree by acquiring 2007's baseball anime Ookiku Furikabutte! (and renamed it 'Big Windup!'). The 26 episode sports anime is as highly regarded amongst baseball fans for its unique take on the psychology of team-sport as it is amongst female fans for its vaguely homoerotic subtext. As is ever the case with FUNimation's anime licenses, we wait to see whether or not it's picked up by their UK distributor Revelation Films too.
