Discotek is soooo unlikely, since their forte is older stuff. AoA is unlikely as it’s a Kadokawa title and Aniplex had nothing to do with it. MB is also rather unlikely, especially since Sentai picked up QB:R and FUNi just announced Ikki Tousen licenses.
Madman, I’ve seen that you’ll eventually release Nichijou on DVD. Is there any possibility of a Blu-Ray release as well? I’d love to watch the animation at the highest quality!
Unlikely since at the moment we’re looking at a subtitled only release.[/QUOTE]
Wonderful WTK posted all the little Con/FB/tweet tidbits that have been said about this series.
Looking them all over, it definitely looks like it might be a Sentai license, and not just that, it might actually pop up in the March solicitations (Feb if David’s release list was incomplete at NekoCon).
Nichijou (My Ordinary Life) | 26 episodes
Possible North American licensor: Sentai Filmworks, …
“Could not confirm nor deny gosick and nichijou however he hinted at them having nichijou.”

14:45:50 <bay|AX|NISA> Q: Can you bring over Nichijou?
14:46:08 <bay|AX|NISA> A: I can’t say that…
14:46:11 <bay|AX|NISA> I think I know who took
14:46:17 <bay|AX|NISA> I think it was taken by someone
“Hi, I was just wondering if you guys have any idea when Nichijou - My Ordinary Life is going to be released (or if it’s ever going to be released for that matter). I’ve been waiting for news regarding that show for a long time and frankly, I’m starting to get a bit worried.”
“Hello, we are aiming for a March release at the moment but stay tuned for the official announcement.”
“Madman, I’ve seen that you’ll eventually release Nichijou on DVD. Is there any possibility of a Blu-Ray release as well? I’d love to watch the animation at the highest quality!”
“Unlikely since at the moment we’re looking at a subtitled only release.”
“no we don’t have a release date for this yet. We will know more in a few months time. If it looks like there will be no dub, then we will just release a subtitled DVD set as soon as possible.”
“Madman now that Bandai Entertainment is closing down will Gosick be sub only?”
“Nichijou as well!!??”
“If another company doesn’t pick it up and release it with a dub, then yes. Both shows [Nichijou & Gosick] were originally slated to be subtitled only anyway.”
Get ready for a marathon, because we’ve got some titles that are unfortunately going back into the depths of the anime vault. The following titles will be available on Crunchyroll until the end of this month, Sunday, August 31 at midnight Pacific Time:
