Users will be able to find some of these licenses mentioned in the Q1 thread as well. These specific licenses have been shifted over to this quarter's thread to accommodate for the fact that happen to be licenses for new titles that are being/will be released during this season.

Just looking at its page here, Aniplex is listed in the production section so they would get dibs on the show.

Yeah I thought that too, but Funi has mostly been licensing shitty fanservice and mainstream shows so I'm too surprised they didn't get Mushishi S2.

Aniplex is releasing imports of Persona 3 movie

[url]http://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2014/04/06-1/aniplex-of-america-announces-persona-3-the-movie-release-plans[/url]

Too bad its imports which means expensive and limited quantities I hate Aniplex sometimes. Well at least I got online streams and the PSP game I just wish I could own it cause it seems that the original product has no subtitles according to CDJapan and Amazon.jp.

A major convention just happened in Australia, so there's quite a few here...

Madman Entertainment:
Akuma no Riddle
Knights of Sidonia
Date A Live II
Gundam Unicorn
Dai - Shogun - Great Revolution
A couple of these are going on their streaming service, there will be more news on that soon for the simulcast thread.


Do Madman license everything that they simulcast for physical release as well?

Discs sold poorly and just a modest novel boost tells me that there will be no second season of Noucome, sadly. Mondaiji tachi sold better on both fronts, way better on novels and yet there has been no season two. Noucome OVA comes out May 26. Enjoy it as it shall likely be the last anime you see from the series, just like the Mondaiji OVA.
