FUNimation's new logo
http://www.funimation.com/blog/2016/01/ ... unimation/
Thoughts on the new logo/brand? They seem to go back to the purple roots without the red.

Re: FUNimation's new logo
It looks familiar. Kinda looks more like a toy company logo. Just for fun here is one of their earlier logos

Re: FUNimation's new logo
I can dig it. this'll probably be locked though because it's not really Dragonball related.
The Dragonboxes are like a middle aged woman who still looks good through simply taking good care of her skin and body with maybe a tiny bit of makeup while the Orange Bricks are like a middle aged woman who get's 50 tons of botox, makeup and plastic surgery in order to look younger and as a result looks even worse. ~ ringworm128

Re: FUNimation's new logo
Yeah, will certainly be locked.
I for one, greatly dislike it though, because it's a very boring font, and that's all it is. I hate modern logos that are nothing more than a "stylized" font.

Re: FUNimation's new logo
I liked their logo from the old days tbh.
Their previous one was fine but thus just seems overly simplistic

Re: FUNimation's new logo
Nah, the former logo was better than this. just imagine how it will look in Home Media releases.

Re: FUNimation's new logo
Looks pretty lame, way to simplistic. I hope they didn't pay the designer too much for that.

Re: FUNimation's new logo
Well, to make this Dragon Ball related, this is the logo that will appear on future DVD/Blu Ray cases of Dragon Ball footage (future movies, Super, the Kai Buu Saga, the 4 OVAs/Jump Specials, etc.)
You can go through your collection and see how much FUNimation has grown by just looking at the logo.

Re: FUNimation's new logo
I kinda like the new style and I don't see really why it'd be locked as the company dubbs the Dragon Ball franchise and has aged ties to it itself. If they done red font and a white background it would have looked better imo.
Re: FUNimation's new logo
I really actually like the old logo. I mean, it's extremely simplistic, yes, but it looks very old-school, immediately recognizable and somewhat nostalgic, like the old 4Kids! logo, which I used to see a lot when I was younger and watched Yu-Gi-Oh! I prefer simple to overly-complicated, but it still needs to have SOME defining factor, unlike this new logo.
I don't like how the new logo doesn't appear connected to any of the old ones: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qun2RtF7D9s

Re: FUNimation's new logo
I rode by a sign the other day that looked near-exactly like that eyes/noseless smile in Funi's new logo. It was either for a park or an apartment complex. I wasn't thinking to take a picture of it.

Re: FUNimation's new logo
I prefer the previous one, to be honest.
The font of the new one is way too "modern", and I really don't like the look of it.

Re: FUNimation's new logo
I don't particularly like it.
It's such a rip off of the Animatsu logo.

I didn't really like the previous one, but that looks like the logo for some random weight loss company.

Re: FUNimation's new logo
Looks boring as hell. What was wrong with the previous logos? They were actually pretty good and reminded me of oldschool anime, y'know with that star and stuff. But this doesn't even look like anything. It looks like the logo for a frozen yogurt shop.

Re: FUNimation's new logo
Why change a logo when it has become iconic in the anime industry?

Re: FUNimation's new logo
If we can discuss the FUNimation logo, I guess we can also discuss the Viz Media logo.

Re: FUNimation's new logo
I just realized there has been a Dragon Ball Z release with each new logo
