All three complete series will be released on DVD with Japanese audio, plus English subtitles, and on-screen translations.

Not bad... but these Right Stuf people really need a big-name, high-selling hit if they want to succeed. Aesthetic, atmospheric niche anime is nice, but it's the Bleaches of this world that pull in the cash to make it all economically viable (sad but true).

Who is Right Stuf? I thought they were just an internet retailer.

Aoi Hana's licensed?

I love you forever Right Stuf. I'm hoping they get Sekaiichi Hatsukoi too. Seeing as they already have Junjou Romantica.

Haven't watched those, but now I am definitely watching Hyakko.

HOLY SHIT, AOI HANA.
Now someone only needs to license the manga.

Hyakko was really good! Wish it had a sequel....
Read Aoi Hana, never watched it.

These 3 look pretty good, especially Aoi Hana.

Cool, Ristorante Paradiso is a nice series. I didn't think it would ever make it to America.
Right Stuf is awesome. I just hope they bring over Eve no Jikan someday. It seems like something they would do.

Wow Aoi Hana really? This is amazing! I would have never thought it would get licensed. I'm so happy that I'll be able to own it :D

I'm glad that Aoi Hana is getting licensed. I personally never finished it because I got bored, but it was really cute and I know that some of my friends loved it. So I'll be excited to tell them about it.

Well Hyakko is great. I just wish it had sequels.

All 3 of those anime certainly looks interesting. Good choice I guess.
