These two anime are the ones airing via video hosting sites.

THEY will be up for free views with english subtitles, but the quality.. we shouldn't expect much from it. HQ versions, well, if they are generous enough to air this one :D

From Animenewsnetwork:

GDH added that its "decision to provide its content globally in parallel with Japanese broadcast is an effort to offer equal accessibility and new viewing opportunities to fans around the world, while at the same time showcasing a legal online alternative to illegal file-sharing and downloading." GDH also emphasized that these services are for foreign viewers only; the company already has deals in place to stream its content through services within Japan.

1) I hope the subtitles can be understood and there will be few to no grammatical mistakes.
2) The quality.. I wish for somewhere around Veoh :(
3) Let's hope this will set an example of how free streaming works, GLOBALLY.

Crunchyroll is going to have some episodes.

Now this, THIS is amazing. I hope it sets the bar, because it's the wave of the future I say.

Yes, indeed.

If it succeeds, in probably less than half a decade, every anime will be freely available :D:D

For it to happen, The Tower of Druaga: the Aegis of Uruk and BLASSREITER must be of outstanding quality (not the video). They must be able to attract and make the viewers crave for more, or else, the whole idea will go to waste.

If the anime fails, the sales will fail too. It could be used as an excuse to say that online streaming doesn't work, thus reverting back to the olden days.

So, BLASSREITER and Tower of Druaga- How much the future of anime will be affected, it depends on you two, seriously.

Yeah. Well, judging from looks, they do look like they're pretty good.

I still think that idea about officials collaborating with fansub groups is a sort of good idea. If this doesn't work out, of course.

They look ok I'll have to watch them before I make a call. Too many times I judged an anime on hype and preveiws alone only to find it's just not that good.
