I have made pseudo-tacos from ingredients one has to hand in order to sustain myself throughout tomorrow's events. To these I am looking forward somewhat.
 
Since One Punch Man is going to be butchered by Khazi as suspected, I'll be getting that from elsewhere. Other new things I'm interested in are Haikyuu and My Love Story. Some pretty good pickups though.

Looks like Madman will be the best bet for One-Punch Man. Unless Viz US are a hell of a lot better than Viz Europe.
 
One Punch man i'll pick up from the states i think. I don't trust Kaze to do a good job.
Amaburi, Oremonogatari and Food wars are guaranteed pick-ups. And Code Geass: Akito the Exiled i want to pick up, i really do, but to pick it up with kaze behind the wheel....ehhhhh.
On Anime Limited. I'll gladly take Turn A, Ninja Slayer an ping pong. So a good time to want to pick up some shows i think! Turn A has been on my list for ages

Depends if they give the project to Justin Sevakis or (the commonly used) ****** Subatomic Digital.
Justin has done Accel World and Blood Lad for them - the good ones. The rest of their crap is Subatomic.
In this scenario, Madman will probably do what they did for a lot of other VME titles (P4, K, Berserk) and import the Kaze discs though I'm afraid.
