Crunchyroll's technical response to the video quality fiasco.

It sounds like they really messed up the encoding settings and did not catch it until encoded their entire catalog.

They have been switching simulcast videos after a couple of days until they fixed the issue. It seems that the issue has been there for at least 6 months. Now that the public got wind of the issue, they are scrambling to try to fix it.

Rumors of a new Gundam being announced on March 24th.

It is called Mobile Suit Gundam Twillight Axis and will be directed by Se Jun Kim. It looks to be based off a light novel that is being serialized in Yatate Bunko.

There looks to be a new anime streaming service in the US and it looks like the site is down due to capacity. They have Legend of the Galactic Heroes exclusively there and are charging $3.99/month and are releasing it episodically with 4 episodes a week.

Wonder whether this is Sentai's attempt of a standalone streaming service. Seeing Sentai's previous work, the subs are probably not good.
