I was expecting ADV Films to grab this series, but I never expected NuTech Digital to obtain the licence.

Wow, that's really odd. Sounds like they got it out of default, I wonder whate else they got out of KGP. Maybe things are starting to get old for them in Hentailand and they're trying to turn things around.

Odd, odd, odd.

My guess is that they are trying to diversify. They know people out there have money and are willing to spend it. OTOH, I wonder how this will affect their way of releasing the DVD's? Considering that they have been mostly porn all this time, and will release 1-2 eps per series, they better get it into their heads that releasing it the same way they release everything else is not good for business.

I'm curious to see how this all plays out.

Silly question, but are they going to use porns stars for voice actors in this one? That would be ... somewhat disturbing.

Someone posted this over at Toonzone a few weeks ago:
Quote:

NuTech News: Please Note (04:50 PM EST): Speculation is running rampant already over the NuTech news, so much that places are now listing certain titles as acquired by NuTech without any actual titles being mentioned in the press release. The press release does say "he complete library of 34 animation titles", but this is a cagey statement. Several shows under Ken Groove are aleady licensed elsewhere; Geneon has Mao Dante and Media Blasters has Genma Wars for example. It's also worth noting that a number of recent hentai announcements from NuTech Digital were for shows that were already licensed and announced by the Anime 18 line from Central Park Media. So until titles are formally announced, people should relax a little.

For starters your friend shouldn't buy the subs anyway since they are probably bootlegs and illegal. As far as a release date, it just got announced, give it some time. I'd figure giving them at least a year before they start releasingif it really has been licensed by them.

Did NuTech even dub any of their anime? As far as I'm aware, it was all subbed.

Yes. As a matter of fact, they used high-profile porn stars for their hentai titles.
