The Funimation simulcast of episode 2 of Kuusen Madoushi featured a very
abrupt transition at the half-way point - Kanata was in the middle of a
sentence (確かに、俺… / _tashika ni, ore..._ ) when he was cut off by the eyecatch.
His being cut off was not humorous, so it doesn't seem like it was
intentional.

Was this a production error? If so, whose fault was it - Funimation or someone
further upstream?

Was the abrupt cut to the eyecatch in the Funimation version of episode 2 of Kuusen Madoushi a production error?


Okay, yeah, the schmucks at Funimation messed this one up. The versions of
this episode that aired on [TOKYO
MX](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tokyo_Metropolitan_Television) and
[SUN](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_Television) both don't have the abrupt
cut - there's about 20 seconds of content missing. Here's a webm of the
missing content, taken from the MX raws: <http://webmshare.com/play/7D8wK>.

Basically, Kanata tells them that he's too strong for them. Misora asks what
they're going to be doing for training today. Kanata replies that they'll be
playing tag, to which they all respond in shock.

Given that this didn't happen in the versions of the show that aired in Japan,
I blame this on Funimation.
