All updated.

Can somebody please link me to the announcements on Viz's official site? I've linked the ANN articles on the source but I'd like to link to the official announcement instead. The website is region-locked, unfortunately.

Hm. Nah. That isn't worth linking.

Thank you for posting it though! : )

For whatever reason my news article about Viz acquiring original SM/Crystal was denied (Why it considered "not newsworthy"??) , but I made a thread in the SM subforums if folks want more details: http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1180729 :)

It's not newsworthy in the sense it doesn't justify a news post all to itself, as any new info regarding licenses/simulcast get posted on the threads for them.

You should have received a PM explaining why it was denied. But yes, the reason is basically what Kuuderes_Shadow has mentioned in his/her post.

Updating OP with new details. ^^

Edit: Updated!

What's weird is all the PM stated that it was not regarded as newsworthy ("Reason: Dear user,Thank you for taking the time to make this submission. Unfortunately, this cannot be published as a story as it is not newsworthy. You are welcome, however, to post this as an information thread in the Sailor Moon Crystal sub-forums.").

And whenever I try to reply, the PM system gives me an "Invalid input" error. Not sure if the system is buggy or what, it was like that 2 days ago too.

Thanks for the explanation, I was wondering about that! :)

Aniplex of America has announced at their panel at MCM expo that MVM have licensed the first 8 Kara no Kyoukai films for UK release as a collection on DVD only (apparently the Japanese don't want it released on BR elsewhere except as an import of the Japanese version). Currently slated for October.

Looks like it's a reissue. Not sure if I should add it to the list. Any idea when the license was originally acquired?

Thank you both for the info. The OP has been updated! ^_^


xHoneythief said:
Not 100% sure when it was originally acquired, but from a search it looks like Madman got it sometime in 2005.

Would the fact that it was rescued by a new licensor make it worthy of the list?


Their post says it's a reissue. I don't think it's worth mentioning here. Plus (as much as I hate using this as a reason) it really isn't a very popular anime.

But I guess this sets a precedent for future cases, should ones similar to this arise. I guess we could add the anime in question to the list if the license gets transferred or if the anime is very popular on MAL or if the anime was originally licensed (by another vendor) a very long time ago. I've worded this a bit ambiguously in order to ensure that we'll have some amount of flexibility over this. : )

If anybody has inputs about this issue, feel free to comment.

Why should popularity on MAL have anything to do with it? It doesn't change the situation at all.

I would like to say the same thing but if we do that, it'd set an inconvenient precedent all-around. For previews, it wouldn't be a problem but it'd get amplified elsewhere.

xHoneythief said:
I guess we can skip Parasite Dolls, but for future cases, could time between reissues make it relevant? I mean, if they were to re-license an anime that has been in licensing limbo for a decent amount of time (e.g. Scrapped Princess, which disappeared in 2011), would that be considered? Unlike in this case where it just jumped to a different licensor with a small time gap.

Just an idea.


Yeah. I think that is a good idea. To be honest, I think we should just decide this on a case-to-case basis, with the time elapsed being one of the important points of consideration.
