Has anyone heard anything about Bokurano being licensed? I'd love to add it to my collection, but purchasing the japanese volumes is a bit... Well... My japanese sucks too much for that

You do realize this is a Anime News Site right? If Bokurano were to be licensed, this site would report that.

I mean its pretty obvious though.

I know. The first thing I did was check out this site, doh.

What I wanted to know was if there was information about a possible licensing that was not reported on-site for some reason.

Dark Horse has stated that they will license Bokurano should someone bring over the anime. If, say, FUNi were to pick up the adaption, DH would promote the original material along with it. (And should that do well, they also remarked they would give Narutaru another shot.)

This was said either on the manga sub-forum on their website or at a convention -- cannot remember which.

There are alternative options if you could read Chinese or French.

Strangely enough, those two are almost always the first two alternatives when an English version is not available. Rolling Eyes

HellKorn: Nice. I'll just have to hope for that to happen, then. Bokurano is a lot "nicer" than Narutaru anyway so... Much less gore.

Ahh yes. Sadly I opted for German instead of French in high school. If I had only known then what I do now xD
