Almost There: Animes that are half-way to getting licensed

Posted 10-05-2008 at 10:31 AM by LordGeo
Generally, licensing anime is simple in concept: Company A goes to a licensor in Japan and gets into conversation about licensing Anime B. But there are a number of animes that are licensed, but not in the way that we normally think. There are companies that fans call "middle-men" that license anime but don't release them; instead they license them so that they can show them off to potential "traditional" licensors.

Over in North America, there are two that are...

Dissecting LordGeo's Most Wanted List: License Rescues

Posted 07-13-2008 at 01:28 PM by LordGeo
Well, we're down to only two titles left on my Most Wanted List. But before getting to those two titles I have decided to take another detour.

I had thought about doing it seperately after doing the whole Most Wanted list, but I decided to get it done right now. This list is double the size of the last detour, with 6 titles I would LOVE to...
