Really cool announcements. I don't know much about many of them but the sound interesting, but I'm just really happy to hear about The Isolator's manga getting added. The art I've was really nice so I'm quite happy about this turn of events.

Good choice on Rokka. I think its got enough of a following that people will definitely be interested. Plus, anybody who doesn't want to pay PonyCan prices for the BDs can at least get a chance to read the whole story.
Murciélago is hilarious schlock. Not something I would have expected to get picked up, but its a good choice if you're a fan of over the top stuff. Big Order is one I don't get. I liked Future Diary the manga, but I thought Big Order was just future diary wanna be garbage. Glad to see more stuff in circulation tho. |

Ohhh, it is! If you want you can check out an English-translated motion comic version of the first arc here: http://mcs.ensoku.club/set/1211 And yes, Kuroko is voiced by the lovely Romi Paku!

I never watched the Rokka anime but was interested in it so may pick up the novels. Looking forward to picking up Smokin' Parade too

Very happy that Big Order got licensed, thought it wouldn't happen. Thought the anime was great despite it's few flaws, main issue was the pacing and from the comments above it sounds like the manga gets it right. Cannot wait.

Big Order sounds interesting, but reading the anime reviews I guess I can just hope the manga is better as has been said.
The Isolator doesn't sound appealing at all. I've heard good things about Rokka though, I'll have to check out the anime and pick that up if it's good. |

I also would like to see HakoMari licensed, as it sounds like a very interesting series to me. But, I'm very happy to see Rokka licensed. Really enjoyed the anime a lot, and would own it if PCUSA didn't backtrack on a SE release. So, happy I can at least collect the novels. I may eventually go in for the manga adaption of Rokka, but I'm always a bit weary when it comes to those. Mainly because I don't want to collect a manga if it won't be adapting the entire story done in the novels. SNAFU's manga is in a similar boat. And, I couldn't help but chuckle seeing Yen pick up Big Order. Unsure if the manga is a lot better than the anime, but Big Order was disappointing. |
