Finally, NIS America picks up an anime that I must absolutely buy! Dororon Enma-kun Meeramera! (Yeah, ANN, it's "Enma-kun" not "Emma-kun"; might want to fix that)

It will be interesting to see how NISA handles all of the references in Enma-kun, as the show is filled with them.

I'm glad that KnT got licensed, I just hope that they are not released in those jumbo boxes like Toradora! was. My shelves cant hold that.

Hmm, cool. ^^ I've been interested in this series for awhile, but I had a feeling I'd like it but then become disappointed without knowledge of a DVD release. Now that KnT is going to get an official release, I'll place the series on my "watch sooner than later" list.

Interesting........I thought for some reason KnT was already licensed but now I know for sure it is.

Good deal. I have heard good things about KnT and look forward to this release.
Dororon Enma-kun...isn't that the show with dozens of remakes because it was so popular? Looks like it is packed with tons of comedy.

I'm really waiting for both for different reasons. I really enjoying the Kimi manga and I'm also a big fan of Go nagai the real God of manga

Enma-kun, eh? That's certainly a possible purchase. Although, I must ask: From the 3 episodes I watched, it seems like the fansub group was using very liberal translations, or is the show actually that vulgar? If they were using loose translations, I may not enjoy it as much if NISA uses the real ones.

NIS America does not have release details for Dororon Enma-kun Meeramera yet, but the staff hopes to have more information by next year's Anime Expo.

Wait, what? They don't know what they're gonna do with it until next AX? I hope that means they're considering dubbing it.

Was the group that did the fansubs called CoalGuys? If it was that would explain it, they seem to be a bit more liberal with their translations with am emphasis on more.

King of Hearts: Enma-kun's from Go Nagai, so I'm guessing it really is that vulgar. Real shocker that anyone is picking up something full-length from him which isn't an OAV or movie, too, since his stuff does not sell well here outside of some die-hards and Cutey Honey. Plus, it seemed more like a title Sentai or FUNi would get.

OH MY GOD KIMI NI TODOKE!!!!! I LOVE YOU NISA!!!!

*ehem* Now that I have that out of my system, I'm pre-ordering both sets of Kimi ni Todoke once the listings go up. This is the first NISA title I've actually wanted badly. I couldn't care less about Enma-kun since I'm not into its type of humor, but at least it broadens NISA's catalog even more now.

No, gg is the only group doing it. I know CoalGuys have a reputation of doing that, but I don't know if gg does. People on MAL say they did, but I don't really trust those people that much, especially when a couple of the negative comments are them just saying "gg", implying that they don't like the subs simply because of who they are.
