Nice; it comes with the package deal also. I'm not too big of a fan of this but glad CR will able to get both.

I'm sure tons of guys will be bitching about this, even though girls accomodate fanservice shows all the time. Anime smile Can't wait to see it.

Does any else think that other than Oreimo 2, Crunchyroll has not acquired anything attractive for Spring 2012? I am hoping they can get either Gargantia or Attack on Titan. I would also love to see Yamato 2199 on CR.

While I'm stoked to watch more of this show (which I REALLY am), I am disappointed that it won't be on NicoNico like the first season. I got way more out of that show in a "group" setting than if I were to watch it alone.

I'm thinking Funimation is going for one, or both, of those.

Agreed. The niconico comments were brilliant. They've been in limbo for a while now though, so I'm excited to see this being streamed at all.

Totally stoked to watch this. Very Happy

Me too. I'm not a big fan of this genre, but I had a lot of fun watching it with the scrolling comments. It just won't be the same without them...

Excited for the show, but I, too, will miss watching this with NicoNico commentary. Did anyone archive those versions of season 1? Every episode was so funny with those comments that they left me in tears.

Niconico comments vastly enhanced the first season, but at least it's getting streamed.

Personally, I thought the show was hilarious (sometimes unintentionally) even without the comments.

How could anybody know after the first day of the regular announcement period? Crunchyroll hasn't even finished signing most of their contracts yet, judging by the number of boxes up on their Spring lineup page.

Once TAN says what their simulcast exclusives are and Sentai starts their season announcements, we'll start getting a better idea which series are going to end up on Crunchyroll and which will be ending up on Funimation.com or TheAnimeNetwork.com instead.

Would it matter if I watch the second season before the first, or should I just wait for Crunchy to get both? I recently learned of this series and would love to check it out.

I would wait on the first. The second expects you to know the returning characters already and what they've accomplished in the first season.
