I would assume they have a back library, so long as their licenses are current. If it can be done illegally en masse, surely they have the funding to do it.

No they don't actually have a back library for U.S. liscensed titles.  Naruto is locked to the subscription, so is Bleach's previous seasons.  Though those are the only cases I know of.  HD is also locked to subscriptions.  And about your Fairy Tail comments, I agree.  The core of the guild is pretty much on the same level as everyone, like Erza may be the strongest, but doesn't mean Natsu, Lucy or Gray suck.  It just does so many things right.  The only thing is, I'm getting dissapointed with that cat who can see the future.  This current story and last story was pretty much "Something bad is going to happen." and then you get a constant reminder "Something bad is going to happen".  For f'ks sake, I get it, you don't need a premonition every story arc!

Something more specific than random bad feelings would be useful, kinda like what she had during the Edolas arc.

I got back into Fairy Tail after Edolas arc, but the island arc and the current arc, had specific visions.  It's just annoying because it's becoming repetetive, and this is going to be the third time that she's "had a vision" of something bad happening.

Signed up for the Free Trial and from what I see, if I decide to stick with it I would only need to take the anime pass which is only $7/month.

Back catalog is alright since I only hit episode 136 on Naruto, never saw Bleach and I saw plenty of other shows to keep me interested.


Where would be the best place to watch One Piece though? They do not have it on CrunchyRoll and I hear the US version is crap.

lol yeah I guess thats what happened , but I'll give the manga a shot.

It's not so much that the U.S. version was crap, it's that the 4Kids version was crap.  Though after 4Kids realized they couldn't kidify the show they just gave it to Funimation.  Funimation has come a long ways since doing Dragon Ball Z.  I'd even give Dragon Ball Kai's dub a chance since the script is pretty accurate.  And about where to find One Piece legit, Funimation's site.  I've actually been watching Fairy Tail there to try to watch the show legitimately.  Though I'm not sure what I'm going to do after episode 50, and Crunchyroll has after episode 100.  On a semi-related note; 4Kids is bankrupt and gone.  Yugioh U.S. rights now belong to Konami and everything else of 4Kids now belongs to Saban Entertainment.  Which is probably just as bad.  Saban hasn't exactly done a good job with anime either, but times have changed.  It's a different market now and Haim did actually like anime so maybe they won't be too bad. 

Thank you very much.

thx Basil for the Autumn list~

Lame. Soriku dropped best show of last year.

I'm still incredibly far behind on anime, but I'm slowly catching up. Very slowly.
