Sony Merges Anime Streaming Businesses Under Funimation-Led Joint Venture (EXCLUSIVE)
 
Good to see Funimation taking all leadership role. With this only Asia, Germany and Austria are left to come under Funimation...
This isn't the first major venture which Funimation has toed into. Just earlier in the year, the company took fans by surprise when it bought Manga Entertainment, the leading distributor of anime in the U.K. and Ireland. This addition hugely expanded how far Funimation reached overseas, and this new joint venture doubles that. Now, Funimation will be operating in 49 countries worldwide.
