Notes: Steve arrived just in time for Saiki K. Or so he thought!! We tried using Funimation's new site, and we culdn't get it to play the subbed version of Saiki episode 15 (perhaps they have a screwed up encode of that episode - or all episodes? - on the web UI). We switched to Gene's new Amazon Fire TV, sought and eventually found the FunimationNow app and downloaded it, and entered my account information...and the app crashed! But when we loaded it again the login had actually worked.
The search feature didn't work, though. At least, searching for "sai" and "saiki" brought back no results. Maybe the app's search is case-sensitive? We eventually found Saiki through the Genres/Comedy group, then scrolled through episodes. The "specials" default to subbed, the "episodes" to dubbed, but we were able to switch eisode 15 to Japanese language...and it finally worked!! And it only took us half an hour to get started! We may have to cut short our samplers a bit.
...
After discussion, we decided we'd spent enough time on Saiki tonight (even if we didn't actually watch it much of that time), so we'd cut that short and catch up in a later week and otherwise stick to our schedule.
