oh my... i guess it's not that surprising though, given how much they love to license stuff like this.

Oh my...considering how...mature Queen's blade is, I'm surprised it got licensed at all.

It's because of the content, I expected it to be licensed sooner or later, and this is right up at Media Blasters' alley! Surprised

I find it very humorous that we find out about this because of a slip of the tongue on Mr. Sirabella's part. Laughing

Queens Blade looks very intriguing to me. Partly because of the premise--and partly because of the ridiculous ANN rating: people either seem to love it or hate it. Once this thing hits the realm of "affordable" I'll definitely check it out.

Cool! Legal copies of Queen's Blade! I hope they mean it will have both subs and dubs on the DVDs... I probably wont be listening to the dubs at all...

It's not the first time he has done it; this tends to happen when users of the Mania forums are chatting about the industry.

Of all the shows being released sub-only these days and Queen's Blade is getting a dub... there's a word for this, I just know there is...

Think of it as if it's just a hentai title.

The dub will probably be around that quality, lol.

I'm more excited about Ikkitousen than Queen's Blade. Glad to hear these will be dubbed.

I would say similar to the quality of the dub for Mouse, which is to say pretty bad. Yeah, Hentai level - heck, the show could almost be sold as a Kitty release!

While I don't care about either show, I actually wonder whether Queen's Blade will do well at brick and mortar stores. How did Ikki Tousen sell? I hope it turns out to be a good buy for them.
