I know that Makai Senki Disgaea was an anime based on the Game Disgaea: Hour of Darkness. I have a question, hopefully someone can kindly answer.

Since the anime is now licensed, will it come to DVD? When I checked the sources on a website it stated that Disgaea (the anime) is being licensed into the TV department. Where exactly will it show and what channel?

ANN currently does not have news for this so I hope someone can answer this.

Thanks for putting this into consideration.

Well first it'll air in japan for some time. I don't live in japan and I don't know how to check for it's air times or channels so I can't help you out there.

Second, it'll probably end up here in america on dvd since it was a pretty succesfull and popular game. Just give it some time.

From the very first developer interview, I knew the anime was coming over(mentions bringing it over at the very end)

This interview also shows that the anime is licensed(not yet who, but I bet its Geneon):

Main point of the interview:

Quote:
"The Wiire: You have an anime based on Disagea, airing in Japan right now. Are there any efforts to bring that over here to the States?

Niida: Yes, we are actually working very closely with... an anime production company and we are going to bring it over here to the states hopefully by October and maybe into November, and it will be here in the States as a DVD format to begin with, but we are also looking into broadcast. Hopefully Anime Network, Adult Swim, or Cartoon Network... so it's going to be very exciting later this year."

Considering PCB Productions (Who also did the English dub of the game.) has already listed the series on their credits page as "In Development" with Geneon credited, I think that is a safe bet.
