    Can't wait!


    Same here I also can't wait to hear what the dub will sound like I wish Funi would upload the first two episodes dubbed before they release the DVDs I'm sooo curious.

    Nichijou and Gosick should be subs only end of story.

    but Gosick is actually based in Europe so a dub would actually make more sence XD

    but i doubt anyone could outdo the jap cast for nichijou


    Subs only are hard to find though, so if they are going to do it at least dub it so it gets put on the shelf at stores and then I can watch it subbed

    No blu ray for oreimo? sub only dvd will never be a good buy, when we can watch the anime on an stream...

    Aug 21, 2011 8:37 AM by TiagoCosta

    OMFG, I wanna watch that movieeeee, been waiting and waiting :O

    Aug 21, 2011 8:22 AM by Zexu

    Will buy Gosick if its dubbed.

    Skipping on Oreimo since I can watch it on Crunchyroll starting August 30th and the fact I hate sub-only series on DVD since its a waste of my precious money.

    Buying the Sora no Otoshimono movie along with the first two seasons.

    Aug 21, 2011 3:08 AM by Roloko

    Ah nice Gosick. And they licensed the SnO movie already? That was unexpected...

    Aug 21, 2011 1:35 AM by Ocean_Horizon

    Nichijou license ah yes good

    Slightly excited for Cute Potato Ore no Imouto. I doubt I'll buy it, but you never know. I liked it enough that, if I have the cash, I might shell out for it. Nichijou, I really hope that they don't dub it. They might, but I don't know. At least it's not riddled with Japan-only inside jokes.

    Shit tier licenses. No Shin Mazinger anywhere on that list.

    Nice licenses for the three companies.

    I am personally excited for the OreImo boxset and the ovas being included just seals the deal for me as long as it's not incredibly expensive.
