WSJ is out on android.
Busy checking it out.
And after some consternation in regards to getting my password sorted (Please don't reroute me to the ITunes page, authentication link, that's not cricket) I think we have things sorted out. Issue is downloading, hoping Viz is enjoying my 1.90 some.
Egerly hoping this is an uptrend of Viz doing smart things for once.
EDIT: OK, it's nowhere near as fiddly as Nook is to use (and by god that was unwieldy, certainly a baffling choice for a platform for a comics publisher) it's got a few flaws chief amongst them the lack of the option to use the volume keys as page turn. Still, it's only £2 a month (I'd go the annual option but I imagine that's region locked least we wonder where ourfree money yugioh cards are at)

Eh, it's not the 80's tastic opening. I mean, I don't think Saban's that much of a shrew (Or is it Levey that'd need to poke for it).Just Passing Through said:

finally, you know the fillers that fans are sick of, well i think studios should pull a bleach and do what they do, wait like a month or 2 then continue the anime and let the manga get a head, you know.

That's exactly how Deadman Wonderland should have been done.
Blue Exorcist went off course at the last minute so that could recover but I doubt that.
Gantz went off course in the last four episodes so that can't continue.
Berserk went way off course in the TV version but thankfully could continue with the meh films.
The developers should learn from Fairy Tail, the show stopped in the middle of an arc just so it could continue being faithful to the manga by waiting.

I'm going to guess that they intended to continue with Deadman Wonderland, hence why it ended the way it did, but the sales for Deadman Wonderland were abyssmal in Japan so it's highly unlikely that it's ever going to get a second series.NormanicGrav said:
If I remember, there aren't any exact sales numbers because it didn't sell enough to rank, but it was somewhere less than 300 copies per volume, DVD+BD sales combined.

The Wildcard
First of all, I'm shocked to see Hunter x Hunter showing because no one has licensed the series in the UK so I wasn't expecting that for a long time.
I expected Steins;Gate: Fuka Ryōiki no Déjà vu to appear because of the English Subtitles available on Blu-ray release.
I noticed some AL titles on the lineup (Place Promised & Perfect Blue) which with a HD re-release seems logical.
Now to the mystery film.
- It's 110 minutes long.
- European Premiere.
- It's family friendly.
- Mystery film is not out in Japan by a few months.
- 2D traditional animation with no 3D or CGI.
List of all upcoming anime films:
- Bodacious Space Pirates: Movie
- Da Hai
- DokiDoki! Precure Movie: Mana Kekkon!!? Mirai ni Tsunagu Kibou no Dress
- Doraemon: New Nobita's Great Demon - Peko and the Exploration Party of Five
- Ghost in the Shell: ARISE Episode 2-4
- Giovanni no Shima
- Girls und Panzer: Movie
- Hunter x Hunter: The Last Mission
- Initial D Final Stage
- Kara no Kyoukai: Mirai Fukuin
- Little Witch Academia 2
- Lupin III vs Detective Conan the Movie
- Majocco Shimai no Yoyo to Nene
- Persona 3: The Movie
- Puella Magi Madoka Magica III: Rebellion
- Sakasama no Patema/Patema Inverted [Showing in Glasgow & Edinburgh]
- Studio Ghibli's Tale of Princess Kagura
- The iDOLM@STER Movie: Kagayaki no Mukougawa e
- Tiger & Bunny: The Rising
I'm ruling out Puella Magi Madoka Magica III: Rebellion since that's aimed for teenagers (12+) and is clearly not family friendly.
So I highlighted titles in blue that could be the mystery title and the ones highlighted in red are titles that fans would want to watch in the future.
But honestly the next family title out there is the next Ghibli film.

Couple of issues here
Bleach Anime just stopped, not stopped to let the Manga get ahead. Maybe it'll return, maybe they stopped it at a good spot to stop endless filler, maybe Kubo wanted it stopped as he's upped the stakes in this arc and he'd be tied down by having to write/draw stuff that would be later animated (ie can't go all out to keep it TV friendly).
Also a month or two of Manga gets you 1-3 episodes, that's why so many Anime adaptions catch up and veer off course, the original manga just can't be released faster than an army of animators can make a TV show of it.

im only saying in my opinion -
that if they have caught up with the manga and need more time for it to get a head then besides doing all these fillers like they did with bleach * they was pretty bad with the timelines in bleach* its like
do about 10 episodes of filler, then wait 6 months for the manga to get a head then start the series again,
iv heard alot of people moan about how some fillers suck so * in my opinion * this seems logical, they do this for other live action shows like dead walking, supernatural * wait a year then there back for a new season,
at least this way they can triple check everything and make the animation better and let the manga get a head,
also if they want to make fller episodes then they could show them once every 2 weeks while making the manga episodes for next seasons
