Just wondering but do you have a source for this statement? |

I am ecstatic. Nozomi just won 2008. Very few license announcements could make me more excited that this.
And each of those singles would have to sell a lot more to recoup the costs for the dub. There's just no way MariMite would meet those sale's requirements to break even, let alone make a profit.
What on earth are you talking about?

Hmmm, $50 for a 13-episode boxset. See, now that seems reasonable. Now to ponder whether to get this since I have other series to collect. In any case for us yuri fans, the series now left unlicensed are Yamibou, Blue Drop, and Candy Boy.

Just a guess, but could it be a reference to the Valentine's Day episode airing before the Christmas episode? |

And while the central relationship isn't yuri, Touka Gettan has a lot for yuri fans to like. And its by the same people who did YamiBou. spoiler[Lilith and Hazuki even make a cameo appearance in one episode]
Maybe, I've no idea. But if that's what he's complaining about, that won't be changed. Nozomi isn't going to mess with the episode order. |

Ahhh yes, Touka Gettan! That is such a freakin' odd title on every single aspect (except for character designs since those were freakin' HAWT) which pretty much confirmed it to be sub-only if it ever gets licensed. Though I have to say, when they get to the yuri, they "really" get to the yuri (well, more specifically that blonde chick who got kissed and groped by a vampire chick and latter a catgirl). |

I still like this title... I hope it does well but am saddened it will be sub only.

This is the "major licensing announcement?" Marimite is a niche title as far as the US is concerned. While I am disappointed that they did not license what I was hoping for (namely Geneon rescues), I love this series regardless and cannot wait to own it.

Well there's still a possibility for that. This is just one of the planned announcements Nozomi has for the season. There'll be more from them in the near future. |

I think that this is major in a way, Right Stuf carries some weight at least... I am sure there will be Geneon announcements it is just too soon for those perhaps.

I would probably say that by around AX2008 we might hear something about the Geneon situation - at least I hope so. |

Oh well, I have an ever growing list of PVCs to buy and I'm following several longer series, so I guess it all works out. Depressingly but it does. |

I'm on the lack of sale without a dub train. I respect that they are trying to sell at a cheaper price, but I'm one of the few that can't stand reading subs on my tiny old TV and actually like dubs with my anime. Not to say I wont consider it. If I hear even more really good things about it then I might go for it. I still think Emma was possibly the ONLY series I know that really needed a dub.

Actually, this is a Geneon rescue. Remember the leaked solicitation and the domain registration of a bunch of titles some time back? Maria-sama was one of them, and the only one to never get a formal announcement. I suspect the 4th and final clue that Shawne left over at AoD is in regards to something they've worked out with Geneon for a broader set of titles. I'm hoping, anyway. As to the license itself, I'm thrilled. Way too often these things are for titles we knew were coming and are in no way surprised, and they're too often titles I have no interest in. This time, I can't wait to get my hands on the sets. I love TRSI! |
