We have made some recent changes to how simulcasts will be released this season. This should help with your enjoyment of them week after week. Starting today you can view a large amount of our simulcasts through the FUNimation mobile app - both free and paid versions!
For all our Elite Video Subscribers out there these simulcasts will also now be available in HD.

We have also included previous simulcast shows from past seasons in our mobile app and in HD for Elite Video Subscribers as well.
For those wondering if these videos will carry over to our new tablet app for iPad and Android tablet (Look for it around late July this year) wonder no more. They most certainly will. This tablet app will also be universal with the mobile app. Which means that if you already bought the paid version of the mobile app, you won't need to pay again for the tablet app. So don't wait until the tablet app comes out, upgrade to the mobile paid version today and get it for free on its release date!

Zensunni: "When will Sankarea be 'simul'casting? (You guys at Funimation do know the meaning of those first two syllables, right?)"
Sometimes it seems like FUNimation thinks it means "simulated broadcast" rather than "simultaneous netcast".
When will Sankarea be "simul"casting? (You guys at Funimation do know the meaning of those first two syllables, right?)
Downloaded the free app today. Will check it out.
Not much use for Nook Color owners, since the videos don't play on the mobile app.

Thanks for the information Adam.
Hopefully One Piece will go HD soon as that's my main show.
@alamarco Yes, this does start immediately. Unfortunately it does not include One Piece. Sorry.
Couple of questions:
1. When does HD streaming for simulcasts start? Immediately?
2. Does that also include One Piece being streamed in HD?
@prodegyxtinct1 I think on the one before this last live Q/A they said something about future diary coming out in 2013 spring? maybe. Not sure little blurry on the memmory XD. But sometime in 2013. Unless that was about a different anime. (doubt it but MAYBE) If so, I apologize for the false info
