Non Non Biyori Nonstop | OFFICIAL TRAILER
So much for Exclusive Rights !
Just throw in the towel Sentai.
You had a good run.
When can we expect Redo of Healer on FuniRoll?
PsshhhâŚ
Since the CR/Sonymation merger hasnât happened yet, I would imagine the agreement that puts Sentai/HIDIVE titles on CR is still in effect.
I just looked at the licensing announcement. Sentai does have exclusive licensing rights to Non Non Biyori Nonstop. However, they then said in the press release:
It didnât say anything about the streaming rights being exclusiveâjust the licensing rights.
Look at it this way, wouldnât you sublicense to CR knowing youâd technically get the license for next to nothing then? and it makes sense when minus the Production costs of the BD release, any amount sold is pure profit, so ya I can totally get behind why they would do that.
Some people mistake licensing rights for streaming rights.
Looks like Iâm one of them lol
Iâm guilty as well in this case .
Though to be fair almost all of the PRâs say
The series will be available on select digital outlets in Blah, with a home video release to follow.
but only this and Redo of Healer mention exclusive rights at the start so from a reasonable point of view that could very well have meant the whole enchilada.
Though probably in Redo of Healerâs case everyone else was afraid of it .
