Kaizoku is going to continue fansubbing. If they ever stop, someone else is going to pick it back up. I don't see this as the crushing blow that a lot of OP fans do, but then again, I'm not insane, either.
I was really hoping Funimation got it, honestly, they're capable of doing great work when they try and don't mess with stuff. I'm not expecting 4kids to do the same anytime soon, but hey, you never know.
Licensed stuff like Gunslinger Girl, Full Metal Alchemist, and Chrno Crusade are easy enough to find still. Considering OP is subbed up to 97 and the series goes way higher, it might be harder to track down ALL of it, but if somebody wants OP badly enough, this announcement isn't a big problem, just... a bit of a drag, is all.
