So. I looked at one of the Funimation forums. Someone said that they looked at a mobile app showing the Funimation schedule and noticed a DVD/Blu-Ray banner containing picture of Carla, who doesn't appear until season two. They went to ACEN 2012 and asked whether we'd be seeing season two anytime soon. The answer?
"Yes."

It's hard to get a second season for any dub these days since fans have to buy the DVD. This makes the DVD i bought worth it all. One day when I'm wealthy i may buy all the DVDs or Blu-rays. |

I'll be honest: I haven't bought any of the DVDs yet, but it's not because I don't want to, it's just that I'm waiting for Funimation to re-release the first season in more compact sets. I doubt that it'll be in one release since 48 episodes is likely too much, but I'm waiting for some 24 episode sets. If it isn't released before the first season two DVD/Blu-Ray release, I'll settle for the part 1-4 sets despite my dislike for them.

It has come to my attention that Vic Mignogna still seems to do voices for Funimation, albeit periodically. Also, I heard he's picky about voicing characters. But in the event that he's interested to be in the dub of this show (and in the event that they continue the dub), I would very much like it if he were to voice Ichiya, Hibiki, Cobra, Hughes, and/or Zancrow.

I wish Vic would just leave Viz to stay in Funimation permanently, same with Patrick, Laura, Travis, and the others. Hmm, I can see him voicing all of them except for Ichiya. Let Kyle Hebert voice him just so we can match Japan in making Aizen voice Ichiya.

Well Funimation's picked up more episodes of Fairy Tail, and the Fairy Tail movie:

So what it looks like they're doing instead is keeping it how it worked out in Japan, with "season 1" being 48 episodes, "season 2" being 24, "season 3" being 52, and "season 4" also likely being 52. Yeah, one season ends up being short, but they keep things in logical story telling blocks, and avoid ending anything in the middle of an arc. So given a choice between licensing a 24 episode block, or licensing a 74 episode block to get a release that doesn't end during an arc, they opted for the 24 episode block. Probably aided by the likelihood that when they say to the Japanese companies that they want to license season 2, the Japanese end likely thinks of that as "season 2" themselves. And since they're buying fewer episodes at a likely similar per episode price point to season 1, they go ahead and spend the money to grab and announce the rights to the movie at the same time to help keep fans of the series from being disheartened at the shorter season length. |
