Those two would be high on my list, too, Macron One. I didn't mention Hyouka (which is probably my number one "want" right now) because for whatever reason, I don't think NISA will ever get a KyoAni show. Not even sure why I feel that way, but I do. Obviously, the same thing would apply to Nichijou.

I'd love some company - any company - to release Zombie-Loan, but that seems more like a Maiden Japan thing than NISA.

FU*K YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ^10

Yet another nice release that makes the idea of upgrading to a Blu-ray player that much easier and less of a debate. Very Happy

but bad news oh this is nisa one thing still yet to when will dub your anime you license?

besides some of them are dub worthy to hear.


You are entitled to your opinion. From a personal perspective, the fact that NIS America does not dub their releases is a non issue for me (I watch subs exclusively, so shows that are put out without English audio are not a big deal(to be honest, I actually prefer those types of releases)).

Ironically at my local Anime Club recently we were talking about shows that hadn't been licensed yet that would be "insta-buys" if they were. My two choices were Yuruyuri and Nichijou.

I think you know what to get next NISA Laughing (assuming of course Nichijou is licensable, obviously)

You used to be cool NISA, but the only way you'll atone for this betrayal is picking up Free!.

I'm watching. There's still hope to make up for your acquisition of this braindead fanboy-pandering series.

We're not having this argument again.

YuruYuri is the PERFECT example of the "not really lesbians" kind of pointless "yuri" that some otaku anime go for. You think it sold well because of YuriHime's readers?

Once again...the only way they're going to make up for this pandering crap is by getting Free! and giving it the best damn box they ever have given to a series.

There's also the question of why you care, other than that you can't STAND the idea that people like things you don't, or that the 'wrong' people like things in general.

Anyway, Yuruyuri is 100% yuri, it just uses lesbian relationships for comedy instead of het relationships.

The girls are still lesbians.

You haven't watched the show, plain and simple, nobody who has seen Yuruyuri can use the term "fake lesbians" to describe it, go and watch it before making idiotic assumptions.

Because crap like this sells when great shows like Mondai-Ji don't.

Yes, I'm still butthurt about Mondai-Ji selling nothing SUE ME

I am not going to suffer through 13+ episodes of mindless and vapid mockery of homosexuality. I'm sorry, but I'm just not going to.

....what? How did you get that out of my statement?

The fact that they are in love with other girls is never the joke.

I'm upset that Mondaiji didn't sell better too, but that doesn't mean you should be a jackass about a show you haven't even actually watched.

Then why did you say, and I quote: "it just uses lesbian relationships for comedy..."?
