Strong World is also a good catch, even if it'll take like five years to dub it.

and Akira... did they pick up the Geneon dub or with they do a 3rd dub for Akira? I still like the Steamline dub better, if only I still had a VHS player to watch it on anymore :P

Not a day one purchase or anything though. The rest here does nothing for me. I agree with the support for bringing Hyouka over though. I'm behind on it but have enjoyed what I've seen so far...

On another note, they even have Tenchi Universe as a complete DvD set for sale, which I have also been hoping to get my hands on.

Hyouka has seriously not been licensed yet? It's such a good series. It's better than so much of this other stuff that is being licensed.
Hyouka would be family beneficial IMO.
