| Gonzo Parent Part Owner of Crunchyroll 'Silent Investor' Date: 9/12/2008 | 
| GDH, parent company of the Gonzo anime studio, is a ?silent investor? in Asian entertainment site Crunchyroll, according to a Crunchyroll spokesperson.  The investment was made after a working relationship between the two companies was developed, which has included open-priced anime downloads released simultaneously with first broadcast in Japan (see ?Gonzo Adopts Open Pricing?). The investment does not entitle GDH to a board seat, and it has ?no influence or insight into Crunchyroll deals/decisions/direction,? according to the spokesperson. Crunchyroll was also funded by venture investors Venrock this year. |
