Canaan is a must purchase for me, have had my eye on it for a long time so I can't wait for this.
I might have to pick up the new Tears to Tiara collection still on the fence a about it though.

The plot of Canaan was something of a train wreck by the end, but I'll be darned if the animation wasn't great all the way through. Definitely worth the purchase to watch in HD.

Yeah, I pretty much have no idea what the show was about by the middle, but I kept watching because I like Type-Moon designs, and it looked pretty. Some kind of wacko bio terrorism or something? Who cares, hot chicks, guns, boobs!

I'm amazed how many of you are excited about CANAAN, mostly because of the negativity in the discussion board about it. Personally the show didn't do it for me, but I'm glad people are getting something they want.

Lolz, I involuntarily let out a triumphant yell+fist pump in the air upon reading that Canaan got liscensed. I'm with everyone else who said that the series lost steam near the middle-end, but I still enjoyed it. I'll definitely be getting it.
It's a damn shame I don't a have a Blu-Ray player, though--with animation that amazing, I would've loved to see it in HD. Some day, I guess.

I have to agree with the comments about Section23 getting their stuff out waayyyy faster than Funimation. Glad to see Canaan getting a dub right out of the gate. I'll definitely be getting that and Tears to Tiara on BD.

YESSSSS!!!! Canaan! Hooray! Very excited, I didn't think this would be picked up ever, especially not by S23.

If you bought the subtitled-only half-season sets I'm willing to bet that Sentai will have an upgrade program where you can exchange your sets for not only a blu-ray upgrade but also with an added dub.

Ah, thanks for pointing that out. I am not a "no dub, no sale" person, but it's true that I become a little more selective if a title is sub-only. Considering that Kimikiss didn't rock my world, a sub-only purchase probably ain't in the cards.

FUNi announces series as soon as the ink dries. S23 announces series when they are ready to solicit to retailers. The difference being, if something like Oh Edo Rocket happened to S23, you wouldn't ever hear about it and just wait forever to even find out they had the series.

Might want to hope at this point that they released everything that they licensed.

Nice! Canaan is licensed. I watched a little bit of it. Really confusing plot, but I haven't gotten around to finishing it.
S23 a.k.a. ADV Films really gets down to business with licensing. Haha. It may look expensive now...but TheRightStuf and Best Buy will have it wayyy cheaper.
