Re: FREE Legal Streaming Anime Master List
Just a heads-up...FUNimation has been taking down anime from their own site. Perhaps partially due to their success with the YouTube rental side of things.

FUNimation Entertainment Enters Simulcast Partnership with Fuji TV for NoitaminA Block
Anime Leader to Stream Episodes within One Hour of Japanese Television Debut
Flower Mound, TX – April 15, 2010 -- FUNimation® Entertainment is partnering with the leading and largest Japanese broadcast television network, Fuji Television Network, Inc., to simulcast anime series featured in its late-night noitaminA programming block airing in Japan on Thursday nights. The partnership gives the American anime leader rights to the online streaming and simulcast of the series in noitaminA in the U.S.
“We are excited to bring this programming to the North American audience,” said Koji Yamamoto, producer of the noitaminA block at Fuji Television, “and to bring it with FUNimation Entertainment, with which we enjoy a long and cooperative relationship.”
“This is a fantastic opportunity to work again with the formidable Fuji TV,” said Gen Fukunaga, president and CEO at FUNimation Entertainment, “particularly on the debut of a new noitaminA lineup. This highly-rated block has already launched hits like ‘Eden of the East’ and ‘Tokyo Magnitude 8.0’ and we hope to extend that success for these new series in the U.S.”
“House of the Five Leaves” will premiere on Fuji TV on early Friday morning, April 16 at 1:30 a.m. Japanese Standard Time (JST) and at 12:30 p.m. CDT Thursday, April 15, just one hour after its Japanese debut, FUNimation will deliver the first episode of the series for North American streaming via www.funimation.com.
On Thursday, April 22 at 11:45 a.m. CDT, FUNimation will stream the first episode of “The Tatami Galaxy” one hour after its Japanese premiere.
Each episode will be high-quality and contain its original Japanese dialogue accompanied by English subtitles. A new episode will be rolled out weekly at www.funimation.com as well as key video-sharing partners as both series continue their television run.
“House of the Five Leaves” is a 12 episode series produced by Manglobe and directed by Tomomi Mochizuki (OCEAN WAVES, “Ranma ½”) and adapted from the Natsume Ono samurai manga of the same name. Set in the Edo period, the series centers on a masterless samurai, Masa, and a gang of mysterious outlaws called “Five Leaves.”
The upcoming “The Tatami Galaxy” is an 11 episode adaptation of Tomihiko Morimi’s novel “Yojo-Han Shinwa Taikei.” The series is animated by MADHOUSE (SUMMER WARS, “Claymore, “Black Lagoon”) and directed by Masaaki Yuasa (“Kemonozume”, “Crayon Shin-chan”).
This month, Fuji TV is expanding the noitaminA block to one hour and announced that five new titles will be aired by the end of the year.
Visit www.funimation.com for updates on upcoming NoitaminA series.

Re: FREE Legal Streaming Anime Master List
I've been watching One Piece from the official site. Good series but the site is horrible in the way they set it up. Finding the episode is easy enough but it is a pain having to to find the next episode to watch because you need to sort the episode from the random default setting each time you want watch something. There is no way to just play the next episode in the series when you are done with the current episode you are watching like you can on hulu.

http://www.veoh.com has tons of videos that can also be downloaded. You have to install their player to download but there's no spyware or anything. Just do a custom install so you don't get the Microsoft Bing toolbar. Videos wouldn't play on my old version of WMP I have at work but it was fine in VLC.

Re: FREE Legal Streaming Anime Master List
What's the best way to watch Crunchyroll on your TV? I've got a PS3, 360, Wii and iPad. Will any of those do it well? Or is there something else that works better?

Re: FREE Legal Streaming Anime Master List
I'm not sure if this thread will be of help for you: link.
Signed up for Hulu Plus on the PS3, but most of their anime isn't available for TV streaming. So that's disappointing and I'll probably cancel after the trial period.
Seems like the best way to view Crunchyroll on TV is through a Roku box. They're around $60-$100 which isn't too bad.

Thanks. I saw that earlier today, but was hoping for more up to date info. Too bad they don't have anything set-up for the 360 or PS3.
