Maybe Funimation should have put out more challenging clues.  Once again people guessed the Funimation clues right and once again Funimation rescues a GONZO show previously licensed by Geneon – this time it’s Gankutsuou: The Count of Monte Cristo.

This is the final Geneon rescue that the clues seemed to obviously indicate, meaning that we will hopefully get nothing but new shows from this point on.  Again, given the track record people have had with the clues so far, it’s becoming increasinly likely that we’ll get Soul Eater and the Evangelion movie, as well as a third as of yet unknown title (which most of you hope is Toradora!, though next I’ll ask what you think it will actually be), which I have a feeling we’ll either be seeing either tomorrow or last.

Count so far:

Geneon rescues: 5
Actual new shows: 2
