I think whoever wrote this is just slightly disconnected from modern anime fandom...... |

Well it's a new shoot so give it a chance to grow a bit more. One has to remember they are most likely not very knowledgeable of animation from Japan and to them it's just another genre, so they will be forgiven for being a bit naive about it. The stress test will be when they show something like Ikki Tousen thinking " it's just another cartoon, what could go wrong?"
Just the fact that it's even available on our little island is a prayer answered really.

Out of the titles mentioned, I only recognised Queen's Blade; and after doing a few minutes of research, it seems that the others are relatively old, mediocre shows that were probably very cheap to buy the license for. I'll pass until something more to my taste is offered. |
