FUNimation is pleased to announce that we will be launching three of the newly acquired simulcasts announced at New York Comic Con today! C３ , Maken-Ki!, and The Future Diary will join Guilty Crown and LASTEXILE - Fam, The Silver Wing - for a stellar season of simulcasts. You can view these now on www.funimation.com. Not familiar with these titles? Take a look below for a short synopsis on each.
C３ - From the light novel series written by Minase Hazuki, comes a story of love, action, and comedy. Yachi Haruaki is a high school boy who is naturally resistant to curses. After his father sends him a mysterious black cube, Haruaki awakes to find a nude girl named Fear standing in his kitchen. She’s the human form of the cursed black cube – and an instrument of torture! Utilizing her special abilities, Fear fights alongside Haruaki to defeat other cursed instruments and their owners.
Maken-Ki! - Based on the manga series by Takeda Hiromitsu, this romantic comedy is about Ohyama Takeru, a typical perverted teenage boy. His new school doesn’t require entrance exams, and it just turned co-ed! Unfortunately, his dreams of a happy high school life are dashed when he finds out the school is much more than it seems. All of the students wield a special item – a Maken – to unleash their magical abilities in duels! Can Takeru find a Maken that works for him? Even while trying to fit in at a new school and dealing with all kinds of girl problems?
The Future Diary - This psychological thriller, based on the manga written and illustrated by Esuno Sakae, is about Yuki, a loner who's not very good with people. He prefers to write a diary on his cell phone and talk to his imaginary friend, Deus Ex Machina – The God of Time and Space. However, Yuki soon learns that Deus is more than a figment of his imagination when he makes Yuki participate in a battle royale with eleven others. The contestants are given special diaries that can predict the future, each diary possessing unique features that give it both advantages and disadvantages. Within the next 90 days, the contestants must try to survive until there is only one left standing. The winner will become the new God of Time and Space.

Still hoping they add Shana
Haha, I love Funimation but they're wayyyy behind. You can find the Eng. subs of all of these shows up to episode 3 on google.
C3 and Maken-Ki have definitely peaked my interest.
Now if only Funi can announce some "new" One Piece volumes, I'd be set.
@ joelgundam01: I read about your problem in Tech Support. Crazy man. PM Sophie and she can fix the problem, though it might take her a little time to do it. (She's awesome but she's only human and has to sleep sometimes.
)
I'm going to start on Future Diary tonight!
Wasn't 'Shana 3' announced as well? Where's that, or did I miss something somewhere?
@SimonDaDigger
No they have it. It was mentioned on both their forums and on ANN.

I had no idea they were making a 'The Future Diary' anime, awesome! It is the best example of a yandere character in my opinion. Plot isn't the best but just the character development makes it (at least for the manga).
Looking foward to Future Diary. C3 looks cute, but I hear its fairly sub-par. And Maken-Ki! More genaric bottom of the barrel ecchi....no thanks.
But yeah overall glad to see Funi getting more new shows to stream.
DragonO if I remember right Boku was picked up by Sentai Filmworks
Nothing on Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai yet. Well at least you have C3 up and ready. I've enjoyed that one the most so far.
