| I expect Sentai to maybe license a few shows during the mid month if not later. Not bad though, I might pick up Soredemo Sekai wa Utsukushii in the future. |
 |
| This is just wishful thinking, but I would love Viz to get Ushio & Tora. They haven't licensed many anime lately so I doubt it, but I can dream... I didn't know about Animatsu yet though. I wonder how their prices compare to that of other UK distributors. |
| Expect huge license announcements from the Anime Expo this week both from titles that area ring in the summer and other shows as well. |
