Was Free ever a big seller in the UK?

What is happening with the Cannon Busters Kickstarter

I know its not a Manga UK kickstarter, but they're working with Makestuff as the Distro and happily tweet about the series

Was Season 1 even released over here? (No, this is a serious question as I actually dont own it yet and might have missed it....)

Seems unfair to ask about a series sales if only Season 2 is available for purchase

 

[thedoctor2016]

Ask AL.
I think it did okay. And Australia is getting it, it’s jist weird openly KyoAnis biggest recent show is getting ignored here.

No it wasn’t. FUNi did release it in america (and AUS) so it is available for manga now.

 

[Scavenger]

I was one of those suckers who bought the unfinished US release of Adventure Time, so I'll gladly double dip if Manga manages to release the complete series.

Hope we'll see a complete Regular Show release on Blu-ray too someday.

didn't expect them to leak their own stuff, guess we'll be getting a newsletter email later today or next week

And Soul Eater finally (2/12)

For real this time? If so yay! I pre-ordered it last time only to have it cancelled because Manga said they couldn't source the masters or something.

 

[thedoctor2016]

I did think Fire force would lead to it finally getting a release.

 

[Oldmario]

something interesting to note i guess, Soul Eater recentlyish (2 months ago) got re-released as a classics on the US side so i guess we'll probably start getting older anime releases that weren't released here too with this Funi/Manga merger

 

[MVM]

Aside from the non anime titles, they're all up and ready to pre-order on our site! UK Anime Store

 

[Scavenger]

I hope Manga UK isn't using Madman's authoring of Steven Universe season 1. It has framerate problems (dunno about later seasons).
