Hmm, so that cuts out both MVM & Universal for When they cry ..

Cardcaptor Sakura announcement soon? Or has it been announce already?

They've been using those shirts for awhile now, I think it was for promoting Prisma Illya?

Yeah, it's Illya. We fell deep into that one speculation wise last year :(
 
I swear if nobody picks up Masaaki Yuasa's new films for the US I think I'll actually cry. Might end up calling for a visit back to the UK just to see them.
 
I'm assuming AL also have physical rights to these films..safe to put on the site schedule or do you guys think I should wait till it's confirmed?

I'm most excited for the Yuasa film which isn't great as my local indie place doesn't seem keen on animation films :|

Into reading the eventual review of Bakuon!! ..that show is just an oddball at times.

They would be silly not to have physical rights, best to assume they have them. For instance when Silent Voice was announced I wasn't sure whether it was just theatrical or physical but it turned out to be both.
 
And then you want to count Non Non Biyori, Shirobako, Is the Order a Rabbit?, and more Hidamari Sketch, and then you realise 10 isn't enough, besides, it's seven more titles, they've already announced three.
 
Or maybe even some more Tenchi!

Tenchi Movie collection
Tenchi Universe
Tenchi In Tokyo
Tenchi Muyo: War On Geminar

JUST GIVE ME TENCHI DAMMIT!! (Even In Tokyo...)
