Geneon's gone.... =(

Wed Apr 23, 2008, 7:14 PM
  • Mood: Rejected
  • Listening to: My teacher talking about his job
  • Reading: Nothing recently
  • Watching: myself struggle to catch-up
  • Playing: NOTHING, anymore....
  • Eating: nothing, i just finished a Totino's Pizza
  • Drinking: I had OJ with it
So, the USA's biggest Anime distributor, Geneon [link] no longer has it's Distribution, Marketing, and Advertising Branch. This radical move took place 5 pm. Friday, September 28. However, only recently has it gotten to be an obvious change since everything is on sale and no one is taking any pre-orders anymore. To those of you who kinda knew about Geneon, they were the "All-in-one" company that was once known as Pioneer. They did everything, IN HOUSE, from concept to distribution: they did it all. Now, Geneon Entertainment America is gone, and is only starting to show here in the beginning of the fiscal year;

I hate to say it but I don't know where I'd be without the beautiful wonders from Pioneer/Geneon. I was literally half couch potato growing up as a kid and it's thanks to them that so many other television company's were able to air these great shows. Now, from what I read in the official article, there wasn't anything said about them stopping any of their productions, so chances are, it's only an Advertising/Marketing & Sales/Distribution loss. This means that there's still a good chance that they will keep all the studios and artists but no longer handle any of the work their parent company, Dentsu, should be doing.

Sadly enough you'll have to follow the 3rd link from the top to find the article if you're interested in reading the details: [link]

I found a list of what they've been involved with too... [link]

So, the good news about this is that companies who are selling anything that has to do with Geneon will be getting rid of their stuff like it's a live nuke! So, by-all-means INVEST, they're collectibles now too!!

Nah, just anything cool that you might wanna see on a t-shirt. I'm seriously thinking about getting into it now since i need another source of income.
