With Sentai’s penchant for picking up most of the Showgate titles each season, I’m guessing this will pop up on CR in July followed by a Sentai license.
Though FUNi is probably still in the race for this as well, since they do tend to pick up a Showgate title here and there in recent seasons.
However, this just seems to fit more in line with Sentai’s Showgate catalog titles than it does with FUNi’s Showgate catalog titles.
I guess we’ll find out when the time comes.
Meanwhile, I’ll just make a thread for it.
Yeah, I’m gonna have to agree. If anyone is more likely to license it, it would be Sentai. It just fits more along their type of show: cute girls slice of life. Yes, Funi recently streamed Miname-ke, but do ya really see them releasing it dubbed let alone getting the first three season: it’ll probably wallow in licensed/development hell like Blessing of the Campallena or Tatami Galaxy.
Viz…naw don’t see it, not Shonen/action enough.
MB…naw as well…hmm…
So yeah, Sentai it is, to go along with their other cute shows: Hidamari, A-Channel, Place to Place, etc…
I think I should probably stop posting ep. updates on this series after I watch each episode.
There’s only so many times “adorable” can be said without seeming redundant.
I haven’t gotten past the letterboxing yet, I’ve been laughing too hard…and I keep having to pause to figure out what the characters are saying in “English”.
That’s not letterboxing, that’s CINEMASCOPE. Here I was, thinking they were actually gonna make an anime with cinema style widescreen, but then I seen ep. 2.
