I saw that AoD post earlier, and I have to wonder...how "official" is a post on a forum? Is there a precedent for licensing being announced in this fashion? Plus, he said they'd be releasing "shows like" Girls High, Girl Meets Girl, and Ramen Girl, not necessarily those series Wink

Nice catch. Wink The word "like" can be interpreted into several different ways.

We will still be releasing more anime like Girl Meets Girl, Ranmen Girl (??) and GIRLS HIGH and alot others but it is better to play it smart.

Reminds me the president who said "I didn't take the money into my pocket." Literally.

I won't be crying if Media Blasters ends up with "anime like" instead of the actual titles mentioned, but better them than no one. I guess.

Too tired to think of anything else.

I know there is Geneon and Geneon U.S.A., but I'm pretty sure I've seen Geneon USA in titles that aren't licensed or were licensed by other people.


Well not according to the ANN database. With the exception of Muteki Kanban Musume, all anime that had Geneon Entertainment (USA), Inc. labled under production in the Japanese company section had been licensed by Genon Entertainment (USA).
