I would imagine at minimum, Valvrave will be available in the UK. we got season 1, so it's silly to stop us from getting season 2. As for Kill la Kill and Magi, i can't really tell

Crunchyroll shows only Valvrave as being UK-compatible at the moment of the three. Gah! I'm guessing Daisuki will be a similar story but I hope things change before they begin.

Well Bakemonogatari wasn't available for us on Crunchyroll but is available on Daisuki. But that's down to its creators not Aniplex so that's another story.

CRUNCHYROLL NEWS FLASH:

Kill la Kill - NOT available to UK
Magi: Kingdom of Magic - NOT available to UK
Valvrave the Liberator 2nd Season - Available to UK

....
 
Welp, i don't wanna say i called it but....

We'll rest hopes that when Daisuki posts the news they can show in the UK, otherwise it'll be annoying that we won't get Kill La Kill. Especially when it's so sought after
 
Well, ****.

Can we quit this region malarkey, just get stuff on CR and be done with it?

Sure as balls ain't gonna watch it on Japanese Gheto CR (daisuki) unless that bicks it's teck the hell up, that's for damn sure
 
Has anyone heard or posted the news that Kaikisen - Return to the Sea, the first manga work by Satoshi Kon, has been released in English for the first time? It's under the name of "Tropic of the Sea" and was released a few days ago. I'm too excited.
 
As an interesting bit from TGS. Gonzo is working on an anime film for Bayonetta to release in Japanese theatres on November 23rd. Directed and Storyboarded by Fuminori Kizaki who did worked on Basilisk and Afro Samurai. I'm not too sure how this will pan out, but it's interesting none the less.

That is rather disheartening. Despite having been pretty lukewarm on the project after the early details came out, the last trailer finally sold it to me.

I swear if AoD picked it up I'ma bust some skulls.

AoD have been dead (though the content is still active) since around the same time Kaze went out of communication. I doubt they will get the rights for that show especially with Andrew's contract with Kaze is no more.

Daisuki also have Kill la Kill, and they might stream it to the UK... For 4 weeks, then realise they've set the switch wrong and then turn it off at the soruce...
 
If you have watched Evangelion 3.33, you would have noticed the
Preview for 4.0 where Unit 02 and 08 were put together fighting the Mass Production Evas. Well it looks like the preview may be legit (as 2.0 wasn't due changing 3.0 halfway through production) and the Unit 02+08 is getting a figurine.

BBFC has rated Horizon On the Middle of Nowhere Season 2 with a 15 (Episodes 8 to 13 are 12) for strong and moderate sex references, fantasy violence and injury detail.
 
When they were delayed before they both moved from 2013-09-02 to 2013-12-02.
That's a heck of a delay for the DVD. Even if they have to re-author it for some reason, that should only take a few months.
