It's about time they picked up Full Metal Panic! The Second Raid.

Karakuri Kiden Hiwou Senki was licensed back at AX 2004. It got solicited in early June as Clockwork Fighters for 9/12/2006.

Oh. I guess I just didn't pay attention earlier, then.

Disgaea's missing from the license. While it was sort of leaked by a website. (Two infact. NIS America and the ADR production team) It was offically announced at AX.

I guess it is too soon to be hearing anything about the Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya novels being licenced. Sad
Come to think of it, I didn't see any Melancholy cosplayers at AX, so I guess the title still isn't well known enough.

There might have been a couple, but in a crowd of 30,000 people, I'd put money on seeing more ninjas and Death Gods than SOS members.

Oh, and I'd like to say thank you to ANN for doing this. It's very convenient and handy and I'm glad you did it.

Actually, I did see pictures of a Mikuru cosplayer and an Haruhi cosplayer on A Fan's View.

Yeah, there were plenty of Shinagami and Ninjas around, to be sure. We probably could've conquered LA if the weapons weren't peacebonded Smile

Sorry I missed 'em. I was on the lookout, too.

It's too recent. The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya came out of nowhere. No one saw this coming, except perhaps the creators, but I'm sure even they were suprised by how it took off.

I wouldn't be suprised if we get a license for both the anime and the novels within the next six months, though.

Another major convention and still nobody licensed Monster. Why isn't it licensed yet? I want to own it on DVD and see it on Adult Swim (a perfect fit) already!

*sigh* Sad

Gakuen Heaven! This is gonna be a great one. I wonder how much they're going to censor out of it.

Dang! There are no announcements concerning Ouran High School Host Club and Mushishi. I saw one episode of Ouran High School Host Club and wanted someone to go license it. My friend keeps on ranting how great Mushishi is. I have not had the chance to see it.

ADV working on the Full Metal Panic! The Second Raid and Funimation distributing it, quite interesting. After all, both companies are based in Texas.

There is a lot of great unlicensed stuff such as Ouran High School Host Club and Mushishi that should be licensed. I hope someone picks these up at a later point.

I would like those to be licensed as well. There's a lot of stuff that aren't licensed yet i'd like to see though... Haruhi,Air,Kanon,Shuffle,Futakoi and Utawarerumono are at the top of my list.
