| WHAAT!!!! And I just finished it on a low quality site!!! :( WAAAHH!!! *sob ...anyways....good for them :) |
| This is very exciting. I'm definitely picking up the first DVD as soon as possible. |
| I think I like what Bandai is doing with this series. Its only 13 eps, get the dub done & pump out those volumes! I look forward to checking out the site as well. *runs over to Amazon* "Yay!" edit: Now when the hell are they going to license Toradora! ? |
 |
| Decent serie, nothing bad at least so that's good that they liscence it. |
 |
| That was... fast. They announced the license and have a DVD and streaming out the next day. This needs to happen more often. I wonder if they're going to release dubbed DVD's later like they did with Gurren Lagann. That would be interesting to wait and see. In any event, I didn't like the show enough to want to rush out and get it on DVD, but I definitely like the speedy release; this could serve as a good business model if they also release a dub later. |

| Great news. Love how they're releasing it so quickly in the States. Hopefully this happens more often! |
| Interesting move; I wonder how this will turn out for them. If I were interested in this series -- which I'm really not -- I'd be thrilled to get such an awesomely timely DVD release. Lack of dub is probably due to Kannagi's main audience being the hardcore otaku crowd, who tend not to watch dubs anyway. |
| The R1 DVDs are subbed only. |

| Awesome. Time to buy me some DVDs. |

| Bandai is amazing. Hopefully they keep this up, what they've been doing on all levels (tv, movies, video games, etc) is great for the states. |
 |
| it's probably sub causs they can't be brothered to pay translaters, rewriters, and voice actors and anyone else they need to dub it and we are still in ressesion. |

UFSman said: it's probably sub causs they can't be brothered to pay translaters, rewriters, and voice actors and anyone else they need to dub it and we are still in ressesion. That's part of it. The thing to keep in mind is that while about every section the entertainment industry is taking blows from the recession, the anime market is probably probbably suffering more-so because compared to Hollywood films, primetime shows and video games, anime is more of a niche medium. The other thing to keep in mind is that Bandai released 2 other anime shows before Kannagi that were similar to it in terms of being popular among anime fans. Haruhi and Lucky Star and I don't think either did extraordinarily well. There have been rumors that Haruhi didn't sell that well on DVD despite its popularity, though that seems questionable aftering viewing this a few weeks ago. Though Lucky Star on the other hand seemed to do so poorly that Bandai decided to cancel the limited edition for the last DVD release. And by the time the OVA came out on DVD, Bandai decided to not go to Bang Zoom to have it dubbed. So it doesn't suprise me that Bandai decided to ultimately cancel the idea. |
| Plan to buy list. |
