This has completely made my day
This has completely made my day
#1
At its Anime Expo panel today, Geneon announced the acquisition of three new properties: the Shana OVA, Lyrical Nanoha and Lyrical Nanoha A's, and the children's show Deltora Quest. Geneon will also be releasing a cartoon called Chop Suey Chook.

I am ecstatic! Nanoha! R1! o/[Image: faveosig.jpg]

Now if they would just have it on their website already. Really, no point in their still hiding it, all one has to do is look up the whois info on nanohadvd.com and you know who has it.
But if they don't even have more than the network solutions placeholder page up, then it's probably to early to talk about release dates. ("Tomorrow? No... um, day after tomorrow? The day after they day after tomorrow. Security? That's not a day, wait, where are you taking me. Help, come see the violence inh- eep!" Well maybe I'd better not bother them...)

MOST of the time it works that way. I can't remember the exact series, but there have been times when the company licensed the domain, but hadn't finalized the contract just yet, and they lost it to someone else.
As for the website, Id expect by Tuesday or Wednesday it'll be there. They have to come BACK from AX...
Pity they couldn't have announced this at AB when I was there... in a Chrono Halloun costume >[Image: faveosig.jpg]

Yeehah! I was wondering when they'd announce this. I asked the rep at Anime Boston about them after the panel and he confirmed to me that somebody had them, but couldn't say anything more.
Hopefully, it won't take too long before we start seeing the DVDs come out. I'm also wondering what kind of extras we might get; the R2s didn't have many.------------

What's made my day is that Right Stuf has licenced Emma. But I like well-written historical romances...
