| 11:07pm | Boobs to hit R1 | | | | Really, Funimation? Dragonaut? Seriously? Was it cheap? Were you forced to pick it up as part of a package deal? Have you merely gone crazy? Slightly more interesting is probably the fact that they’ve also picked up the two Duraga series and Blassreiter, both of which have been available to watch... | | |

However,... | | |
