Wait, isn't that only half of it? Surely they didn't withhold a simulcast and then only making half of it available? Surely not.....
Oh but there's no other way to dub a show and produce it but hold it from rabid fans for two seasons. I mean Riverdale just MaGICALY appears on Netflix on a weekly basis no matter who doesn't want it.
 
It's an interesting debate because Jerome has been very vocal on Twitter in the past about how he doesn't understand why fans are moaning about the 'box set' release pattern when it works for physical releases. The reason it's great for physical is that it's delayed to begin with that way, and buying all in one lump is the most cost effective, simple way to collect content. But with streaming, being spoiler-proof and watching simultaneously unlocks the fun of participating in the worldwide debates about the content, which make content a lot more attractive, and the price is the same either way (as is the convenience really; nothing is stopping those who want to marathon regardless from waiting until they have enough episodes queued up).

With original content that's being released in a full season chunk right from the start it's fine, but with anime we need to push simulcasting as the best method if we don't want to be behind the curve all the time. If dubbing is the problem I prefer Funimation's model of releasing the subbed version then getting the dubbed simulcast up as soon as possible, but not delaying everyone for one segment of the market. Hardcore dub fans can always watch twice while they wait if they're really keen.

Surprised that there was no Gundam catalogue additions this week, think the only AU series they haven't added yet is Age and X.

I would like to see AGE. It, along with Victory and the two Build Fighter shows, are the only Gundam shows I haven't seen, and its negative reputation only makes me more interested in seeing it (in that weird way you can't explain.) Looks extremely unlikely for a physical release as well (especially in the UK!)
