It's common to joke about the puritanism coming from the major-corporation side of these acquisitions, but in fact Funimation's ex-CEO Gen Fukunaga, years before Funimation was acquired by Sony, himself founded a Christian film studio and hired former Senator Rick Santorum to be CEO [0]. The two companies shared office space [1] and at least one common staff member outside of leadership. Of the venture, Santorum said in 2013, "This is a tough business, this is something that we’re stepping out, and the Devil for a long, long time has had this, these screens, for his playground and he isn’t going to give it up easily.” [2] [0] https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/answerman/2014-01-24 https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/answerman/2014-01-24 (second Q&A) [1] https://www.dallasnews.com/news/2013/08/02/rick-santorum-christian-film-studio-put-down-roots-in-flower-mound-area/ https://www.dallasnews.com/news/2013/08/02/rick-santorum-chr...
