It's like you copy/paste the same thing every single time Sentai licences something and just fill in the blank with the title.
Plus, it's not like Sentai rarely dubs anime into English anymore. It's almost standard for them to do so now. They're also going back and dubbing some of their older titles into English. Back when they were a "new" company, it was understandable since they didn't have as much money, and couldn't really afford it. Now that they're more fleshed out, they can license and dub more stuff, so they can make even more money (even they realize that sub-only DVDs don't usually make as much money, but if you put less money into the product, then you have less to loose). MY POINT: I'm pretty sure they're dubbing Un-Go. As for A Channel, it's "possible". Sentai has dubbed quite a few things that I would consider "niche".

Pretty much. But it's not worth waisting your time. He pops up, doesn't read any other posts, posts this same line, then never reads the threads again.
This is the same thing he posts on just about every anime announcement from any company that doesn't dub everything.

That doesn't really help me, seeing as my DVD/Bluray player can only play region 1 and 2 DVDs. It's an option, at least, but I really need to be sure whichever new DVD/Bluray player I choose to invest in in the future can play ALL region discs instead of just some.
....I guess if any European readers out there have any brand suggestions that's easy to make region free and has a Bluray player in it to boot, I'd be more than happy to accept a few. |
He wasn't suggesting that you import the Australian version. He was simply stating that the fact that Siren has licensed it increases the likelyhood that US company has alreadylicensed it or will do so shortly.

This is great, never expected A Channel to get licensed! Great example of cute girls doing cute things with no plot, but somehow it was very enjoyable. I think what did it for me was that the friendships rang true so the sweet moments actually had some poignancy. The music was catchy and used in the right places. Guess I have to go delete my fansubs now.

I'm not familiar with the other show, but Un-Go, huh? Surprising considering how lukewarm the response to that show has been. The designwork is nice though, so maybe if the show picks up a bit I'll buy it.

Still waiting on Heroman... You'd think that one would be a no-brainer, right? |
Yes please, I've been waiting to throw my money at whoever would release this!

Sentai licenses another slice-of-life moe show that isn't Manabi Straight.... |
That would be awesome if Sentai licensed Manabi Straight. I'm glad they got A-Channel and I'm hoping they'll dub it.

Given Sentai's track records with shows with soft-yuri shows like Maria Holic, Blue Drop, Koihime Musou, Uta~Kata (and to a lesser extent, You're Under Arrest and Hidamari Sketch), odds are that deal is already signed, and they're simply waiting to announce it. I know I'd buy it anyway.

Don't forget, A Channel, you know, the show they just licensed. Though most of the yuri content is more implied undertones than any blatant yuri.

The only implied yuri undertones in A Channel is what's in your own head IMHO
Tooru is very possessive of her friend, but I never once got the feeling that it was in a sexual way. Merely a childish possessiveness. None of the other characters even come close to that, really.
Watch Yuru Yuri for implied and not so implied yuri undertones  I was initially like "oh great another ridiculous yuri fanservice show", but late into the season I finally watched a few episodes when bored and it's surprisingly cute.
Being Akarin is suffering.

Ah, my bad.
Anyway, that's good, then.

I haven't watched it yet so I wouldn't know, but yeah might as well add it to the list! And it seems like it could be a series I will enjoy (I'm a massive HidaSketch fan, so I do enjoy that kind of slice-of-life), I'll definitely consider pre-ordering it.

If you like Hidamari you'll definitely like A Channel. It's in the same slice-of-lifey vein.
