Yes, there's nothing better then the adaptation of a yaoi VN with absolutely all the romance removed. A perfect sell.

Maybe they'll leave the original pristine artwork, tho.

That was an unexpected pickup...
Perhaps Sentai thought that the interest in fujoshi has risen enough for this show to sell?

Wow...did not see that coming. Wonder if this disk will have the soundtrack in it like the Japanese one...probably not.

Not to mention its QUALITY animation which was made on a budget that makes a shoestring look respectable.

Surely this will be a top top seller for Sentai.

But seriously, I wonder if they were forced to accept this license? If it came as part of a bundle with other titles then they might not have had much of a choice.

Considering Madman announced licenses for 7 titles last month, all of which being Sentai titles except 2, DRAMAtical Murder & Hanayamata, it's possible it was packaged with Hanayamata
Since Sentai just announced this, we will probably see a license announcement for Hanayamata in the near future as well.

A license for Hanayamata? Hell yes. That show was so adorable.

By the way, good detective work with the Madman connection.

I would be ecstatic as well if Hanamayata got picked up; the artwork of the show looks marvelous. Smile
