It's good to hear we'll be seeing Straight Jacket pretty soon. July/Sept would be a decent turnaround, considering the first episode was just released on DVD in Japan last week [it's an OVA series, so I'm curious what they meant by broadcast. Is it getting a TV airing too?]. I'm guessing Manga plans to have two or more episodes to make it movie length like Karas and most of the OVA's they release are, so a 6 month wait time isn't too bad given it'll mean more episodes, and a dirt cheap price.

I was kind of hoping we'd see some license announcements, though I guess they're going to fill up most of early 2008 with boxsets of their recent TV shows, while starting up Eon Kid [I guess this is their 2nd kids anime after the 80's colour version of Astro Boy], and eventually launcging Straight Jacket. Hopefully, we'll see them announce a handful of TV series and/or some OVA/Movie coproductions in 2008.

Well my hopes of a remastered Macross Plus set are dashed again...

Tokyo Zombie...I saw an ad for this on one of my anime movies at least back in May.

I'd been looking for it too. I wonder what took so long.

I canceled my pre-order for Tokyo Zombie which was first available for ordering in August 2006.

The Tactics box set and volume 5 are listed as Feb releases at TRSI.

Did Manga's licence for the Evangelion movies expire because they are not listed on their website?
