[[folder:A]]
* Animes fan have longed for Creator/{{Toonami}} to air one of Creator/SentaiFilmworks shows. So when the Toonami crew at Momocon announced that they are airing ''Manga/AkameGaKill'' in their block, fans were ''ecstatic''.
* Ah, Creator/{{FUNimation}} is dubbing ''Webcomic/AxisPowersHetalia''? Cool...Wait, they're using ''[[EverythingSoundsSexierInFrench accents?]]''
** There was also a small bout of panic when it was announced that the [[MemeticMutation Ending Theme]] was going to be changed. [[EarWorm And then the preview]] [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic for Hatafutte Parade was released...]]
** Some against type casting (mainly Creator/VicMignogna as Greece) was offset by some really great choices for [[Creator/MonicaRial Belarus]], [[Creator/ChristopherSabat Rome]], [[Creator/BrinaPalencia Chibitalia]], and [[Creator/MaxeyWhitehead Sealand]]. And then came [[Creator/JerryJewell some of]] [[Creator/JMichaelTatum the]] [[Creator/EricVale main]] [[Creator/ToddHaberkorn characters]], sending the squees to a fever pitch.
** Hetalia season four? Zippedy-doo-dah! Creator/{{FUNimation}} licensed that, season three, ''and'' the movie, all on the same day? HALLELUJAH! I'll go get the defibrillators...
** So [[Creator/HidekazHimaruya Himaruya's]] taking Christmas requests again this year? Sweet...HOLY CRAP IS THAT [[EverythingSoundsSexierInFrench FRANCE!?]] LET THE 2010 [[NakedPeopleAreFunny BLOODBATH]] BEGIN!
** In general, when a country is revealed the fandom rejoices (especially fans from said country). Fans will also rejoice if a country is added into the manga plot.
** When Himaruya returned after an 8 month haitus, there was much rejoicing done on tumblr and livejournal.
** Season 5? Great! New designs that are much closer to the manga artwork? AWESOME!
** 2014 was a year of awesome for Hetalia fans. A bi-monthly comic is running in Shonen Jump, a whole 3 years since the strips were running at a regular and constant pace. The flood of new content was overwhelming for fans. ''Then'' Hima released designs for the UK brothers, all of whom he has been hinting at since ''the beginning of the webcomics.'' Then he introduced Portugal, a character whose designs' were released a good year ago and fans have been waiting eagerly for. It really was a great year for the fandom, especially considering discussions of it dying...down of...HOLY CRAP, SEASON 6 IS HAPPENING! WOO!
** In 2016, season six is finally getting a dub! Christmas is coming early!
[[/folder]]

[[folder:B]]
* For the love of God, the ''Manga/{{Berserk}}'' anime is getting a remake?! Susumu Hirasawa is back?! OOOHHH YEAAAAH!!!
** It is now confirmed that ''Manga/{{Berserk}}'' will soon be issued in a whole new anime, [[http://en.nicoviewer.info/sm12264010 now with a short to prove it indeed]]. Fangasm ahoy!!
** Bah, they'll just do the same thing they did with the orig- wait a minute, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dL4aTvcNqKo is that the Skull Knight?]] OH. [[BigYes MY.]] [[PunctuatedForEmphasis GOD!]]
** The new ''Manga/{{Berserk}}'' anime will be made up of three films, and they all got licensed by Creator/VizMedia? Nice! But Viz is in California while the voice actors from the dub of the original anime are in New York, so they'll probably replace all the voice actors. Wait, they got all three of the main characters' voice actors back?!
** [[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2015-12-21/berserk-gets-new-anime-project-featuring-guts-as-black-swordsman/.96773 New Berserk anime depicting Guts as the Black Swordsman?!]] AND they're finally putting out a box set of the original anime on BluRay?! Praise God Hand!
* ''Manga/BlackButler'' is getting a second season, with Sebastian and Ciel gone for good? None of the cast returning? Oh WTF come on how-...Then came the day when episode one of ''Black Butler II'' premiered. Let's just say the advertising team trolled the entire fandom.
** The RelationshipVoiceActor team up for the [[Creator/JMichaelTatum dub]] [[Creator/BrinaPalencia leads]] caused a major squeefest.
* Same for the new''Manga/BlackButler'' arc, "Book of circus". The first trailer alone was enough to win back the fans who actually hated the second season. Awesome music? Checked. No mention of Alois or [[spoiler: Ciel being a demon?]] Checked. And then we had and absolutely epic curb-stomp battle in the first episode...some reviewers even say that this may be the best season of all three.
* ''Manga/BlackLagoon'' dubbed by Canadians? Oh crap, not another disastrous dub...WOAH! They had more [[ClusterFBomb F-bombs]] than the Japanese original!? In good English!? With actual, ''believable'' accents!? This is going to be fun!
* ''Manga/BlueExorcist'' is getting an English dub? Thank you, Creator/AniplexUSA! Wait...you're getting ''Creator/JohnnyYongBosch'' to play Yukio? Awesome- that's the fifth Creator/JunFukuyama role he's dubbing!
** Creator/BrycePapenbrook as Rin? Er...hold on, he was [[Manga/VampireKnight Aidou]], [[LightNovel/{{Durarara}} Kida]] and [[VideoGame/TalesOfGraces Asbel]]? Yay! Rin's in good hands!
** Creator/ChristineMarieCabanos as Shiemi? Okay, I officially love this dub!
** Man, the anime was good up until it stopped following the manga. Wait, there's a new season coming? And it's following the Impure King Arc, meaning it will potentially ignore the latter half of the first season? Sold.
* ''[[LightNovel/BodaciousSpacePirates Mini-Skirt/Bodacious Space Pirates]]''? I'm not sure about this...Oh, so [[Anime/MartianSuccessorNadesico Tatsuo]] [[Anime/StellviaOfTheUniverse Sato]] is the director? [[SincerityMode Sounds like it might be fun]]. ([[ScheduleSlip 2 years later]]) What the-- [[Creator/SentaiFilmworks Sentai's]] pre-emptively licensed this series? Sign me up!
* When the Book Adaptation of ''VideoGame/BreathOfFireIV'' came out, reactions ranged from "HOLY CRAP THEY'RE DOING SOMETHING WITH THE FRANCHISE" to "TheyChangedItNowItSucks" to "Why the hell did Capcom wait ''seven friggin' YEARS'' to license this?" (Did we mention the entire ''franchise'' had been in DevelopmentHell for approximately four years?) This was, of note, until they SAW some later scenes in the aforementioned manga--particularly [[spoiler:the scene where Soniel is decapitated by Fou-lu which is a massive TakeThat to the bowdlerisation of the scene in the game]] and [[spoiler:Cray PUNCHING [[KarmaHoudini YUNA]] SO HARD THAT HE SLAMS HIM INTO A WALL AND CRATERS IT]].
[[/folder]]

[[folder:C]]
* Why does Australia have to get remasters of ''Manga/CardCaptorSakura'' and we Americans don't?! We haven't gotten new [=DVDs=] since Creator/{{Geneon}}'s demise and it's likely the series will never be picked back up---SAY WHAT?! Creator/DiscotekMedia just got the rights to the first movie and are releasing the remastered version?! TAKE MY MONEY, DISCOTEK!!!
** [[Creator/NipponIchi NIS America]] JUST GOT THE SERIES!!! But wait! It says there's going to be a monaural edited English dub in there. They can't be referring to the atrocious {{Macekre}} that was ''[[Manga/CardCaptorSakura Card Captors]]'', right--'''THE [[Creator/{{Animax}} ANIMAX]] DUB?!?''' The one Creator/MadmanEntertainment tried to get but couldn't because it was too financially taxing?! WE LOVE YOU, NIS America!!!
* Dang it, Creator/SentaiFilmworks, how could they not give ''LightNovel/LoveChunibyoAndOtherDelusions'' an English dub, but instead give one to a barely recognized show such as Hakenden?! W-wait, what's that? THIS LISTENED TO US?! CHUNIBYO'S GETTING AN ENGLISH DUB AFTER ALL?! REJOICE!
* Bandai's dubbing ''Anime/CodeGeass''? Boooooriiiing! Wait, Creator/CrispinFreeman as Jeremiah!? Creator/YuriLowenthal as Suzaku!? '''Creator/MichaelMcConnohie''' as Emperor Charles!? Man, I'm gonna watch this!
** Creator/JohnnyYongBosch as Lelouch? Boy, talk about [[WTHCastingAgency bad casting]]...Wow, he actually pulled it off! With an even better EvilLaugh!
** We've been waiting for three years ''Creator/FUNimation'' where's ''Code Geass'' on DVD and Blu-ray? Wait, October 4, 2016, and legal streaming on their website on release day?! WOOO!
** Ironically ''averted'' with the announcement of Code Geass: Lelouch of the Revival. The immediate reaction was not rejoicing, but fear that a new season would make the well-closed anime [[JumpingTheShark jump the shark]]. It did grow a bit into hype over time however, particularly from the part of the fandom that ''doesn't'' think the ending closed well, particularly due to the fact the original writing team is back.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:D]]
* ''VisualNovel/{{Danganronpa}}'' is getting an anime! And its small but devoted fanbase cried tears of joy!
** AND NOW IT'S GETTING AN ENGLISH DUB! BY Creator/{{FUNIMATION}}! WITH A (MOSTLY) NEW ALL-STAR CAST!
* ''LightNovel/DateALive'' [[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2013-06-21/date-a-live-anime-gets-2nd-season gets a second season.]] Cue much rejoicing. Especially since the LN readers are sure that season 2 will be much better than season 1.
* ''Manga/DeathNote'' is getting dubbed, and they casted Creator/BradSwaile as Light Yagami? ...Holy crap! He really pulled off that evil laugh there!
* Wow, the ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry'' [[Anime/DevilMayCryTheAnimatedSeries anime]] is licensed in America. Let's hope ADV knows what they're- hold up, '''''Creator/ReubenLangdon as Dante?!''''' This party's gettin' crazy!
* ''Manga/DGrayMan Hallow'' is being streamed by Creator/FUNimation as part of its Summer 2016 simulcast season.
* ''Anime/DigimonFrontier'': Ayumi Miyazaki or [=AiM=] not in it? I'll pass...Wait, Kouji Wada is doing all the songs? FIRE??? WITH THE WILL!!!!!????? YES!!!!
** After Disney bought the company that dubs ''Digimon'', the very first thing announced was that they'd go dub every movie that had been made up to that point (starting with ''[[Anime/DigimonAdventure02 Revenge of Diaboromon]]''). And there was plenty of cheering.
*** But they never got a chance to dub ''[[Anime/DigimonSavers Ultimate Power! Activate Burst Mode!!]]'' or ''Digital Monster X-Evolution'', though...
** ''Anime/DigimonAdventure'' is finally being released on DVD?! After about...what?! ''Thirteen whole years''?! BANZAI!!! But wait! It's not bilingual! Well, it's better than nothing right? Hopefully we'll get the other--WHAT?! Anime/DigimonAdventure02 is gonna be released as well?! ZOMG!!! Thanks, New Video Group!!!
*** [[http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00B9LNOKM DIGIMON TAMERS IS NEXT IN THE LINEUP!!! DIGIMODIFY!!!]]
*** Netflix releasing BOTH the subbed and dubbed versions of seasons 1 and 2.
** How do you celebrate 15 years of Digimon? Five words: [[Anime/DigimonAdventure Taichi.]] [[TimeSkip Seventeen years. High school.]] Welcome back to the Adventure era, everyone.
*** Fans have been getting very excited about ''Anime/DigimonAdventureTri'' and its focus on the original team.
*** The songs "Butterfly" and "Brave Heart" are going to return in the new season!
*** Alright, the first movie was pretty cool, how will they tease the second? [[spoiler:Imperialdramon in the poster? Well, alright, Toei acknowledged the ''02'' Chosens, might as well give their lead pair a chance...wait, ''Vikemon and Rosemon?'' It's not going to be the Tai and Matt Show anymore? '''''...everyone else from Adventure may be getting their Mega forms?''''']]
*** Despite some hints at an official English dub (such as using the term "Digi-Destined" on Tri's English website), no official confirmation had been made for over a year. That is, until [[https://www.facebook.com/jeff.nimoy/posts/10154985958414689?pnref=story Jeff Nimoy announced that he would be returning to voice Tentomon]].
*** Many of the fans are disappointed that some of the characters in the dub [[TheOtherDarrin have been recasted]] due to the fact that many of the original voice actors have either retired or changed careers (particularly with Matt's voice actor being replaced with Creator/VicMignogna, who is divisive among anime fans). That is until it was announced that '''''Joshua Seth''''', the original voice actor of Tai in the ''Anime/DigimonAdventure'' series, [[http://www.awn.com/news/toei-animation-announces-voice-cast-us-release-new-digimon-feature is stated to reprise his role in the Digimon Adventures tri]]. Keep in mind that Joshua Seth was mostly critical on the voice actor pay in anime work and had mostly retired from voice acting to be a mentalist, but it did not stop him from reprising his most iconic voice role in anime due to sheer amount of fan support.
* Unless it's by Creator/OsamuTezuka, classic anime never seem to get dubbed in North Americ-wait, DID I HEAR THAT [[Anime/{{Doraemon}} DORAEMON]] IS GETTING SHOWN ON Creator/{{DISNEY XD}}? This is amazing!
** A few months before this announcement, the manga got translated into English.
** I've read that they'll do many edits to Americanize this sh-DID NOBY JUST SAY DORAYAKI IN THE FIRST EPISODE? Awesome!
* The Creator/{{FUNimation}} dub for ''Anime/DragonBallKai'' had Freeza recast and voiced by a ''male'' voice actor (Christopher Ayres) whose performance will supposedly be very faithful to the Japanese version. It's what the fandom's been waiting for ever since the ''Kai'' dub was announced.
** The creation of the "dub with Japanese music" track for the ''Anime/DragonBallZ'' season sets. The issues with "remastering" and the cropped aspect ratio harmed this somewhat.
*** Later when the ''Anime/DragonBallGT'' season sets were announced...Correct aspect ratio, less problematic remastering, removal of the ThemeTuneRap and replacing it with an English version of ''Dan Dan Kokoro Hikareteku'' sung by Creator/VicMignogna. Also, the ''Manga/DragonBall'' season sets ''finally'' (after almost '''15 years''') making the first 13 episodes available uncut and bilingual in America.
*** And of course, the fact that Funimation are now releasing the ''Dragon Boxes'' for Z. The ultimate remastered version done for the Japanese home release. And at a ''[[CrackIsCheaper much]]'' [[CrackIsCheaper cheaper price than they were in Japan]].
** And now Creator/DameonClarke is set to reprise his role as Cell in ''Kai''.
*** However, unfortunately, this news is not without it's disappointing tradeoff. Meredith [=McCoy=]'s famously sexy Android 18 vocal depiction is now gone, as she has not come back from retirement for the role. But we got Creator/ColleenClinkenbeard!
*** To the delight of several fans though, [=McCoy=] did return as No. 18 for the English dub of ''Anime/DragonBallZBattleOfGods''.
** An example from the Hungarian fanbase, which went through some zigzagging: In late 2011, news hit of a ''Dragon Ball'' show finally airing on TV, ''12 years'' after its infamous cancellation. Fans went nuts. Then it turned out it's only ''Anime/DragonBallGT''. Fans lost faith. Then they revealed the dubbing studio managed to reunite a large bulk of the original cast, save for a few very minor characters. Fans cried happy tears.
** Less than a year later, another Hungarian TV station announced that they're be re-airing ''Anime/DragonBallZ''. The hitch is that it's shown with the original dub, which was infamously shoddily retranslated from the French version and EditedForSyndication, but on the bright side, this means the brilliant former voice cast isn't getting replaced, plus the bare fact that it returns after over a decade of being off the air is more than enough of a reason to rejoice.
*** And ''another'' year thereafter, the same TV station revealed that they've bought all of the episodes and are planning to keep airing them without any breaks (previously, only the first 52 got repeated over and over). So after a 14 year wait, for the first time, the dub may be shown on television in its entirety.
** Not only has it been announced ''Kai'' will continue throughout the Buu saga, but Creator/KyleHebert has announced he's [[https://www.facebook.com/KyleHebertVO/posts/565450290167145 reprising his role as teenage Gohan]].
** The bad news: It turns out that the "Buu Saga Kai dub" [[YankTheDogsChain isn't happening]] - yet. The good news is the Japanese version of Kai's Buu saga dub is going to be officially airing in Japan [[MilestoneCelebration just in time for DBZ's 25th anniversary]], which hopefully means that the option isn't off the table just yet.
** [[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2014-05-30/dragon-ball-z-battle-of-gods-to-premiere-in-n-american-theaters-in-august/.75046 FUNIMATION IS DUBBING BATTLE OF THE GODS!]] And it's getting released in theaters!
** The English rights to ''Anime/DragonBallZResurrectionF'' were [[http://www.funimation.com/blog/2015/03/15/funimation-entertainment-announces-acquisition-of-dragon-ball-z-resurrection-f/ confirmed]] a month before the film was even released in Japan, and it's confirmed that the film will be getting a U.S. theatrical release in Summer 2015.
*** In that film, we got Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan Vegeta cue the cheers.
*** The fandom in general went bonkers especially after hearing Frieza would return, in a new form. Plus some of the supporting cast would return to get in on the action. It made so many fans happy it renewed interest in a nearly 20 year old franchise.
** [[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2015-04-28/dragon-ball-gets-1st-new-tv-anime-in-18-years-in-july/.87608 After 18 years, a new Dragon Ball anime is making its way back to television by the name]] ''Dragon Ball Super''.
*** And Future Trunks is back for his own arc? ''And'' he's going to spend an entire episode processing the differences between the grim, rough FutureBadass Gohan who mentored him before dying young and the dorky, domestic RetiredBadass Gohan who's married with a new baby?! '''''AND''''' there's Future Gohan flashbacks??!! YES, thank you! You're too kind!
*** So what's going to happen for the next arc? Another tournament this time featuring fighters and Gods of Destruction from the rest of the multiverse? Intriguing but nothing too exciting... Wait, is that Gohan wearing his Mystic outfit from the Buu Saga? Mystic Gohan has returned?! This is just getting better and better...You're kidding me, is that a '''female Super Saiyan'''? And it's a Legendary Super Saiyan at that? SQUEEEEEEEEE
* Aniplex is distributing ''LightNovel/{{Durarara}}'' in America. Dammit, they're probably not even going to bother with a dub and...Huh? They ''are'' giving it a dub? Well, they'll probably outsource it to Singapore and give everyone crappy voices and...Wait a sec - Creator/CrispinFreeman is gonna be in it? As ''[[MemeticBadass Shizuo]]!?'' THIS WILL BE THE GREATEST DUB EVER!
** Let's not forget Creator/JohnnyYongBosch as [[PsychopathicManchild Izaya]], Creator/YuriLowenthal as [[MadScientist Shinra]], Creator/PatrickSeitz as Simon, and Creator/SteveBlum as [[StraightMan Kadota]]!!
** ''Durarara!!'' is going to be on Adult Swim in June!
** Sigh, it's been 4 long years since ''LightNovel/{{Durarara}}'' aired, and they only covered the first 3 volumes, and then pure silence. Guess that's all we're gonna get... [[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2014-03-15/durarara-gets-new-tv-anime-series wait there's a second season coming soon?!?!]] AND the original cast is all coming back? [[BigYes HALLELUJAH!]]
** Creator/YenPress is releasing the original {{Light Novel}}s. ''In English''.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:E]]
* Subverted in the case of the ''Anime/EdenOfTheEast'' dub. Apparently, Oasis' label ''did'' permit Funimation to get the rights of the anime's OP, "Falling Down"...but only for the first episode.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:F]]
* The ''Manga/FairyTail'' anime is coming back, and [[Creator/AyaHirano Aya Hirano]] is staying on as Lucy, despite the fears of the fandom!!!
** At Otakon 2012, Creator/{{FUNimation}} announced that they had the rights to episodes 49-72 of ''Anime/FairyTail'', and the movie, The Priestess of the Phoenix. The best part? They literally got the go-ahead to announce those additions to Fairy Tail that morning.
** Otakon 2014, FUNI revealed a new set of voices for Part 13... wait a second, ''Michael Jones''? As in ''WebOriginal/AchievementHunter'' Michael Jones?! '''''[[RageQuit SWISS FUCKING CHEESE!]]'''''
* So they are going to do an anime of ''LightNovel/FateZero'', guess we are going to have to get used to Studio DEEN somehow messing this one up...Wait, it's not Studio DEEN? It's [[LightNovel/KaraNoKyoukai ufotable]] doing the animation and they hired the Drama CD VA's? Nice. But what about the music...Music/YukiKajiura (another person familiar with ''LightNovel/KaraNoKyoukai'', having done the haunting sound track there. Also just finishing a stint with ''Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica''). This is going to be good...
** Laconic version: ''LightNovel/FateZero'' is getting ''LightNovel/KaraNoKyoukai'' treatment. [[AwesomeArt Guess what]] [[AdaptationDistillation that]] [[CrowningMusicOfAwesome means]].
* Wait? ''LightNovel/FateZero'' airing on ''Neon Alley?'' It's getting an English dub? And they got the top [[Creator/CrispinFreeman union]]-[[Creator/KariWahlgren only]] [[Creator/JamiesonPrice voice]] [[Creator/MatthewMercer actors]] in it? '''FUCK YEAH!''' Screw TheOtherDarrin, This is gonna be awesome!
* ''LightNovel/FateZero'' was a pretty faithful and awesome adaptation. Too bad that the ones for the first two routes of ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight'' sucked and that Heaven's Feel will nev-, wait? What's that? There's gonna be a remake of Fate/Stay Night. Well I hope it doesn't turn out lik-, WAIT, Creator/{{Ufotable}} is animating? Hell yeah!
** ''Heaven's Feel movie confirmed.'' '''Unlimited Blade Works anime series confirmed.''' ALL ABOARD THE HYPE TRAIN. Woo WOO!!!
*** Heaven's Feel movie ''trilogy'' confirmed! '''This is going to be awesome.'''
* Another ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist'' anime? Sigh, you know what they did [[Anime/FullmetalAlchemist the last time]]...Hey, isn't that Ling Yao and Lan Fan?!
** Wait a sec...Creator/VicMignogna and Creator/TravisWillingham are back?! The (almost) original cast? Cue fangasm! Oh, the Risembool Rangers and the Miniskirt Army are gonna be all over this!
** They're replacing Roy Mustang's voice actor? Screw that! Wait...they've got ''Miki Shin'ichiro?!''
** Rumors that Creator/AdultSwim had 3 new anime? Eh, it's probably gonna be an attempt to troll us with more [[TimAndEricAwesomeShowGreatJob Tim & Er--]] Wait, it's confirmed that one of them's the new ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist''? YES!!!
*** Bah! They'll just shove it into 2 AM with no advertising -- Wait, it's at 12 AM? And there are ''actual ads?'' Hey, [=AS=] cares about anime after all!
** Olivier said "...passed down the Armstrong line for generations!"?! FOR THE FIRST TIME?!
** Ugh, they're probably just going to be like, "shouldn't have worried, blahblahblah..." Wait, whoa. WHOA. Did Roy just seriously hug Riza?!
** Another corny train leave...what the hell are they saying...Wait, did Ed just [[spoiler:''propose]]?!''
** Oh God, the anime isn't following the manga! Hey...wait...This is AWESOME.
** A certain faction of the fandom experienced another one with the publication of the third art book [[spoiler:and its WordOfGod pronouncement that the Roy/Riza ship is, in fact, canon. Specifically, the author said that the military's anti-fraternization law is the only thing keeping them from getting married]].
** They'll dub FMA for German release, huh? Oh well, at least you can assume they won't butcher the script, and you can always turn on the original with sub- HOLY SHIT they cast DAVID NATHAN as Roy?! THE GERMAN VOICE OF JONNY DEPP?!!!
* Man, it's been 10 years since ''LightNovel/FullMetalPanic'' had an anime, will they ever adapt the rest of the novels... [[https://www.reddit.com/r/anime/comments/3pwymh/full_metal_panic_announcement_livestream_in_10/cwatdql WHAT WHAT WHAT A NEW ANIME'S BEEN ANNOUNCED!]] ''Full Metal Panic: Vertical Shaft'' on the way! I don't know about you, but my shaft is real vertical right now!!!
[[/folder]]

[[folder:G]]
* Many fans were resigned to the belief that there would be no more ''Franchise/GhostInTheShell'' anime. Then, Production IG announced that they were working on a new ''Ghost In the Shell'' series which will be released in 2013! YES!
* Website/{{Crunchyroll}} has added ''Anime/GiantGorg'' to their Anime Catalog! AWWWWWW YEAH!
** Earlier then that, Creator/DiscotekMedia announced their aquirsation of the ''Anime/GiantGorg'' license for a North American DVD Release.
* ''Manga/{{Gintama}}''[='=]s announcement that they were going to release the Benizakura arc was a BigYes for the fandom. And then, when they decided to bring back the TV series a year later, ''everyone'' went nuts.
** On the US side of things, the fans were sad that Creator/SentaiFilmworks stopped releasing the TV series...until they eventually licensed TheMovie (which covers the [[CerebusSyndrome Benizakura arc]], from the unlicensed portion of said adaptation), with an English dub made for it. To top it off, the ADR director ''isn't'' Steven Foster. Needless to say, much joy was had at that point.
** April 2012. ''Gintama'' was gone, ending with a real closure this time despite one last attempt to troll. But fast forward to August and wait...it couldn't be...a second film with ''Sorachi'' himself involved? AND IS THAT SHIROYASHA IN THE TEASERS? Sunrise you really do care! ''But that's not all.'' The TV anime is returning with not only reruns but new episodes too!! In the 6pm Thursday slot!! Roll on October.
** When they casted Creator/YuuichiNakamura as Kintoki, fans thought it was the best casting ever, considering that the former and Creator/TomokazuSugita (who's Gintoki) are practically HeterosexualLifePartners and having these two try to grab the spotlight of the Kintoki arc would be an immense amount of trolling.
* ''Franchise/{{Gundam}}'':
** They're finally releasing the original ''Franchise/{{Gundam}}'' series in an Anime Legends pack? Well, that's good news I suppose, since the originals are long out of print. Wait, we're finally getting the Japanese audio too?! Squeee!
** "Crap, ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamAGE'' looks like it's gonna be a stupid kids' show. Wait...Music/JAMProject are doing the OP? This is gonna be awesome!" Ok...we kinda got jossed on that part.
*** But Kei Yoshikawa is now doing the music for the seires. '''[[Anime/{{Basquash}} WHICH]] [[CrowningMusicOfAwesome MEANS...]]'''
*** And you thought AGE-1 is just that, AGE-2 and AGE-3 MS have been revealed, and they're a homage to the Zeta and Double Zeta! EPIC!
*** It may not be [[Manga/MobileSuitCrossboneGundam Crossbone]] but an animated Pirate Gundam? HELL YEAH!!
** For all the flack that ''[[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSeedDestiny Gundam Seed Destiny]]'' gets, one of the biggest casting coups is that they got Creator/ShuichiIkeda (AKA Char Aznable) to play Gilbert Durandal in his first AU Gundam work (second if you count his role as [[Anime/SDGundamForce Commander Sazabi]]).
** Two years after Creator/BandaiEntertainment's downfall, Creator/{{Sunrise}} teams up with The Right Stuf to distribute the Gundam series in North America, '''including Anime/TurnAGundam'''.
*** After years of being left in Japan, Victory, X, and ZZ are coming to America! Sieg Zion!
** Man, Anime/MobileSuitGundamIronBloodedOrphans was a great series...too bad it doesn't have a dub, which kills any chance of it being shown on most US TV stations. Wait, Sunrise is working with Creator/BangZoomEntertainment to dub the series? AWESOME!
*** The series is finally airing on Toonami! But wait, there's still the slight chance that it might get censored, seeing as how dark it was for a Gundam series. Now the first promo is out, and it's a nice tribute to the promo that they did for Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing, even using the same music and having similarly campy lines. While it sucks that Peter Cullen isn't the narrator, that's a nice throwba-wait, THEY ACTUALLY SHOWED [[spoiler: MIKAZUKI EXECUTING HAEDA]]? THIS IS INCREDIBLE!
[[/folder]]

[[folder:H]]
* ''Franchise/DotHack'' has been stuck in the limbo since Creator/BandaiEntertainment got itself a "restructuring" back in the days but wait! What's this?! Creator/{{Funimation}} acquired them? They rescued it from from being stuck there? HOORAY!!!!
* ''LightNovel/{{Haganai}}'' gets an English dub? [[BigYes YES]]! Creator/JerryJewell is Kodaka? OH YEAH! Creator/JadSaxton as Sena?! Wait! She was [[LightNovel/IsThisAZombie Haruna]] and is kicking well! And Creator/AlexisTipton as Rika? SHUT THE HELL UP AND GET MY MONEH!
* Season two of ''LightNovel/HaruhiSuzumiya'' was such a let down...we didn't get any ''Vanishment'' episodes..."Endless Eight", you are officially [[FanonDiscontinuity forgotten]]. Wait, a movie...'''BASED ON ''VANISHMENT''?!!!!'''.
** Not to mention the movie appears to have art close to Season 1, as opposed to the low-quality "Manga/KOn-ification" of Season 2.
** The dub of Season 2 will be released in a boxset. Thanks [[Creator/CristinaValenzuela Cristina]]!
*** Wait, Bandai didn't just license Season 2, but also the movie?! AND ''Manga/HaruhiChan'' and ''[[Manga/HaruhiChan Nyoron Churuya-san]]''?! And they're all being dubbed?!! (cue mass applauding)
** As for the Kyon/Yuki shippers, there was much cheering, and {{Squee}}s after the whole movie. Yuki has a major crush on Kyon, [[CaughtTheHeartOnHisSleeve and the tugging of his jacket]], and her [[TheWoobie Woobie-ness]]...
** They're gonna release the 1st part of Novel 10 in the next Sneaker magazine? Pfft...*2 months later* OMG! It's true! There's a 70-page preview! [[spoiler:Ryoko is back!]]
*** While Baka-Tsuki project has been forced to stop, you can still find translations on the internet, and according to the BT forums, the Cease and Desist letter only covered the first 9 novels. It's now up to the translators to see whether they want to risk angering the lawyers.
** There'll be a spinoff anime of ''The Melancholy of Yuki Nagato''! The franchise is still alive!
* The English dub of ''Manga/{{Hellsing}} Ultimate'' got this when it was announced that pretty much all of the English cast for the TV series, including Creator/CrispinFreeman, would be returning. Rightly so, considering that, if anything, the dub of ''Ultimate'' is even better than the original series' dub.
** And in November 2011, Funimation announced they will finally dub episodes 5-8 with the same cast and crew as before. Much rejoicing indeed.
*** Plus, "''When You Start the War, Fight With Arrows, Spears and Swords!''" was one of the most popular songs from ''Hellsing'' TV. When we heard it as the ending theme to ''Hellsing Ultimate'' episode 8, we were so happy.
** Come October 28, 2014, the English dub of OVAs 9 and 10 will be released, completing the series.
* So the ''LightNovel/HighSchoolDXD'' anime is over. [[IdiotHero Issei]] defeats [[{{Jerkass}} Riser]] in an EngagementChallenge and gets the girl of his dreams (Rias) to like him. So all is well. But wait. Sirzechs and Grayfia did mention the "Vanishing Dragon" at the end. Maybe there's hope for a second season.
** Wait, a second season has been announced? ''Hell'' yeah!
** And a ''second'' OVA episode will come in 2013? ''Right after'' the first one was released in Japan?! And it's ''also'' written by [[WordOfGod Ishibumi]] [[MemeticMutation himself]]?! '''AWESOME!!!'''
** Season three has been green-lit! Only three words to describe this: '''[[Franchise/CodeGeass ALL]] [[Creator/NorioWakamoto HAIL]] [[MemeticMutation OPPAI]]!!!'''
* So Anime/HanamaruKindergarten Finally Gets a Dub?! HECK YES!
* ''Manga/HunterXHunter'' is getting a new anime? With less filler? And will adapt the Chimera Ant arc?
** It think it's time to pack it in. It's been four years, and nobody is licensing it... Wait, Viz Media announced that they are going to dub it? The show is now just one step closer to airing on Toonami!
** Don't get your hopes up. They're probably going to use the same voice actors from the mediocre dub of the 1999 anime. Wait? It's being dubbed in-house? And Creator/EricaMendez is voicing Gon? She was perfect for Gon the second we heard her in ''Manga/MagiLabyrinthOfMagic!''

* Man, ''Manga/InitialD'' will probably never get a proper adaptation...wait, Funimation got it? AND they're giving it a proper dub with the Eurobeat?
[[/folder]]

[[folder:J]]
* ''Manga/JojosBizarreAdventure'' is FINALLY getting a proper anime adaptation?! And it's coming this October?!! "YES! YES! YES! YES!"
** Whoa, hold the phone. Creator/CyberConnect2 is making a fighting game too?! And it's gonna cover all parts of the manga?! Man, Christmas must've come early this year!!
** Then, when you start watching the anime and what do you see? Okay, Dio kicked Danny, but what is this? ARAKI'S GIANT ONOMATOPOEIA ARE IN THE ANIME!!! And it becomes even more awesome when you the Ending: Roundabout, by Yes, with a really wonderful animation.
** And now [[http://wwws.warnerbros.co.jp/jojo-animation/ Part 3 is getting an anime next year]]?! WRRRRRYYYY!
*** And that's not all: Just a few days before Part 3's debut, [[http://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2014/04/02/its-official-crunchyroll-to-stream-jojos-bizarre-adventure-anime Crunchyroll announced that they'll be streaming the anime]], including ''the first season (Parts 1 and 2)''!
*** Recently, an English dub has been annouced for part 3. Gee, I wonder who will dub who here... ''Creator/MatthewMercer'' as Jotaro? Ok, that's good. ''Creator/RichardEpcar'' as Joseph? That's gonna be interessing. Wait, ''Creator/PatrickSeitz'' as DIO?! OK! Now I'm gonna see it!
*** Wait, that was just a test dub? Oh well, looks like we'll have to wait another eternity before they finally get around to-''Oh my fucking God! They just announced at Anime Expo 2015 that they're dubbing Part 1 & 2!'' Who are they getting to play-''Creator/PatrickSeitz is returning as Dio?! Creator/JohnnyYongBosch as Jonathan?! Creator/BenDiskin as Joseph?! Creator/KeithSilverstein as Speedwagon?! Creator/BrycePapenbrook as Caesar?!'' '''FUCK YEAH!!!'''
** After a quiet number of months, Part 4 was ''finally'' announced to be getting an anime adaptation on October 24th, 2015.

* ''Anime/LittleNemoAdventuresInSlumberland'' will come to Blu-Ray. They'll probably cheap out on extra content like for the DVD, but at least we can watch the movie in HD...and with Japanese audio and English subtitles? Plus, Creator/StudioGhibli's pilot will get included as a bonus feature? Goll-ee!
* Man, ''Anime/LittleWitchAcademia'' is great, but it'd be nice if they made a full series out of it. Huh, '''''THEY ARE MAKING ONE?!''''' HALLELUJAH!
* ''Manga/{{Loveless}}'' being re-released as a dub? [[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2010-12-02/media-blasters-confirms-loveless-kashimashi-dub-plans YES!]]

They just got the first season, with the [[FanNickname green jacket]] Lupin and the episodes done by Creator/HayaoMiyazaki? I don't care if it's not dubbed, this is '''awesome!'''
** Many fans jumped for joy when [[Anime/LupinIIITheWomanCalledFujikoMine a new Lupin III TV series starring Fujiko]] was announced for the Spring 2012 anime season. Over 20 years since the Anime/LupinIIIPinkJacket series ended!
*** What's more, Takeshi Koike would be doing the character designs and the style would be [[DarkerAndEdgier more in line]] with Monkey Punch's original manga.
*** And then at Otacon 2012, Creator/{{FUNimation}} announced that they were dubbing the series, with Creator/MichelleRuff reprising her role as Fujiko.
** But wait, there's more! Not only is Discotek re-releasing ''Anime/TheMysteryOfMamo'', but they're including [[http://lupinthethird.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=94:exclusive-discotek-licenses-qthe-secret-of-mamoq&catid=1:latest ALL FOUR DUBS]] of the film (Creator/{{Geneon}}, Creator/StreamlinePictures, Creator/MangaUK, and the old Creator/{{Toho}} dub) on the DVD!
** DISCOTEK GOT '''CASTLE OF CAGLIOSTRO.''' REJOICE!!!
*** Along with the Creator/StreamlinePictures and Creator/MangaEntertainment dubs of the film, '''Castle of Cagliostro''' will also include a subtitle track containing [[http://castleofcagliostro.tumblr.com/post/102600003062/1980-subtitles the original (1980) subtitle script]] for the film.
** The latest Lupin title to be picked up by Discotek: ''Jigen's Tombstome'', with the film getting an English dub to boot.
** The Blue Jacket series is not only going to be dubbed (something people worried wouldn't happen), but is going to bring back almost all the voice talent from the Red Jacket series (except Zenigata's) for a reunion!
* ''Franchise/LyricalNanoha'': Reinforce (Eins) fans cheered when it turned out that their beloved Ein would be getting more screentime in the second movie.
** Oh great, a new Nanoha manga based around card games and no magic? This is going to...Wait, is that Precia? Linith? Alicia? And they're NICE?! Wait, is that Fate? Fate and Alicia are both alive?! Cool! And they work with Lindy? Awesome!
*** Yeah, but that's not really that...Did I just see the Materials? The Florian sisters? Yuri? And the Materials and Yuri have last names now?! Holy fuck yes!
*** Hayate and her family will probably be...Reinforce Eins Yagami?! Screw the movie, this is getting awesome!
*** Yuuno's slated to actually be in this manga too? Holy damn, it's like 7arcs is trying to apologize to everyone for every perceived slight the franchise has had since A's ended almost 10 years ago.
** The announcement that the third movie was finally being brought out of DevelopmentHell was met with much fanfare.

* [[AdaptationOverdosed Another]] ''Manga/MahouSenseiNegima'' anime, huh? What, are they going with the Neo pl- THE MAGIC WORLD ARC?! ''ANIMATED ETERNAL NEGI FEVER!?''
** Kodansha takes over publishing ''Negima'' in America...hello, what's this? Re-releasing the early volumes in an omnibus edition? ''Re-translated?''
* ''Manga/MyHeroAcademia'' is getting an anime? But the manga isn't even two years old yet. They're going to cram filler in it, I just know it. Wait, Studio Bones is making the anime? Well, maybe their fillers won't be so bad.
** Man, the voice of Bakugou in the Vomic was underwhelming. Wait, Bakugou is getting a new voice actor for the anime? And it's Creator/NobuhikoOkamoto? And Creator/AoiYuki is going to be Tsuyu? Sign me up.
* Will ''LightNovel/TheIrregularAtMagicHighSchool'' ever get animated... [[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2013-10-06/mahoka-koko-no-rettosei-anime-gets-anime-with-yuichi-nakamura-saori-hayami oh wait.]] FINALLY!

* ''Anime/MagicalPrincessMinkyMomo'' is getting movie dub compilation streams on Amazon, courtesy of William Winckler Productions. Oh boy, that dub will be laughable-- wait, it's actually the old Harmony Gold dub (that never got broadcasted in the US)? Might not be so bad, although the method's outdated. Hold up, the movies will cover the ENTIRE 63-episode series without any edits if they succeed? Where do I sign up!?

* ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'': The trailer of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q94Nr363aWQ "The Last" movie]], which will be a canon movie! It basically sent thousands, if not millions of "[[PortmanteauCoupleName NaruHina]]" shippers worldwide to the hospital due to joy seizures!

* Funimation licensing ''Manga/OnePiece'' after 4Kids lost the rights. Nothing more really needs to be said here.
** The announcement that Funimation would be releasing episodes again after over a year.
** For manga readers, the news that Viz would be releasing five volumes per month starting in 2010, bringing the English edition up to speed with the Japanese one.
*** A more minor example, but many fans were happy when it was announced that professional translator Stephen Paul was hired to translate the manga for Shonen Jump Alpha.
** Holy crap! Funimation just licensed both the fifth season and...''[[Anime/OnePieceFilmStrongWorld STRONG WORLD]]''?! Funimation, all my money!!!
*** ''One Piece'' HAS NOW BEEN OFFICIALLY CONFIRMED TO JOIN Creator/AdultSwim's TOONAMI LINEUP!!!!!!!!
** Come September 30th, not only will Funimation start releasing Thriller Bark, but they're also releasing ''One Piece Film Z''! Keep it coming Funi!
* All right, so Creator/{{FUNimation}} set up a beta version of their new site and- wait, they got ''Anime/PantyAndStockingWithGarterbelt''? Nice!
** Meh, they'll probably just use Hulu to host their vid- wait, they're not using Hulu? You mean Canadians can actually watch their streams? Sweet.

** Well [[https://twitter.com/GAINAX_WEST/status/809370721793101824 this just popped up]] and- wait, did Gainax just hyped all of us up for a an exhibit and a cafe that already existed? I WANT SEASON 2 DARN I-''wait!'' there's more: there's a statement for a ''new product release''; there's some hope left!
* ''VideoGame/{{Persona 4}}'' is getting [[Anime/Persona4TheAnimation an anime]]!? And it's ''not'' going to be a [[Anime/PersonaTrinitySoul spin-off]]!? SQUEE!
** That's not all! The director is the same one who made ''Anime/AngelBeats''. ''[[ScreamsLikeALittleGirl Squeeeeeeeeeeee!]]''
** More {{Squee}} for the fact that the original seiyuus of the core 4, Creator/DaisukeNamikawa (protagonist), Creator/ShowtaroMorikubo (Yosuke), Creator/YuiHorie (Chie) and Creator/AmiKoshimizu (Yukiko) are returning. Now all we hope is that [[Creator/TomokazuSeki the]] [[Creator/RieKugimiya rest]] [[Creator/KappeiYamaguchi of the]] [[Creator/RomiPark crews]] return as well!
*** We've got [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWgTjqZcCuM confirmation]] on Creator/TomokazuSeki and Creator/KappeiYamaguchi! We're also getting [[Creator/AkemiKanda Nanako]], [[Creator/UnshoIshizuka Dojima]], and [[Creator/MitsuakiMadono Adachi]]!
*** Now we have [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sm8C57B0OTE confirmation]] on [[Creator/RieKugimiya Rise]]!
*** Aside of the confirmation of Naoto, it has now been confirmed that [[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/press-release/2011-09-27/sentai-filmworks-licenses-persona-4-the-animation this anime is to be dubbed!]]
* ''Anime/PrettyCure''. Usually, it takes a few weeks of the season actually being on the air for things to settle down. When ''Anime/HeartcatchPrettyCure'' was announced, everything began as normal. Then Creator/NanaMizuki, best known for her roles as either adorable love interests, {{Dark Magical Girl}}s or [[Anime/MagicalGirlLyricalNanoha both]], was cast as the lead. A good number of arms were laid down that day.
** The fact that one character will be orange and another green in ''Anime/SmilePrettyCure'' made the fandom overjoyed.
*** Many fans reacted this way when Yayoi Kise (Cure Peace) was revealed to be an otaku.
*** And fans reacted to her CouchGag in ''Anime/HappinessChargePrettyCure'' in a way no other cure's congratulatory message got, and they are still talking about it four months after it originally aired.
*** The ''Anime/SmilePrettyCure'' franchise has been going downhill latel-WAIT, IS THAT [[Music/MegumiHayashibara MEGUMI HAYASHIBARA]] VOICING NICO? YES!
*** Also, [[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2012-10-29/smile-precure-film-is-1st-in-franchise-to-top-box-office this movie topped the box office in Japan the week it came out?]] Let's party!
*** Creator/SabanEntertainment announced a series called ''[[http://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2013/04/13/saban-to-showcase-mahou-shoujo-gangnam-girls?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+crunchyroll%2Fanimenews+%28Latest+in+Anime+News+by+Crunchyroll!%29 Gangnam Girls]]''? Sounds like it's going to be another bad western animation girls' carto-WAIT A MINUTE! THE DESCRIPTION SAYS THAT IT IS ABOUT 5 GIRLS PROTECTING THE WORLD FROM FAIRYTALE VILLIANS! DOES THIS MEAN THAT IT'S A DUB OF SMILE PRETTY CURE? It's a "maybe".
** Many fans were disappointed when ''Anime/PrettyCureAllStars New Stage'' reduced the ''Anime/FutariWaPrettyCureMaxHeart'', ''Anime/FutariWaPrettyCureSplashStar'' and ''Anime/YesPrettyCure5GoGo'' casts to TheCameo. The first original trailer for ''New Stage 2'' has now revealed that, at the very least, the Max Heart and Yes teams will have ''much'' bigger roles than last time. You were missed, girls. [[spoiler:Sadly, only the Max Heart team got speaking roles.]]
*** Looks like ''New Stage 3'' is really ramping things up here as the first trailer shown on ''Anime/HappinessChargePrettyCure'' shows the Smile team interacting with the team they're {{Expies}} of, the Yes! team. Even more, [[spoiler:Cure Honey may be the first mainline Cure to make an appearance in a movie first instead of the series proper and Ayumi's making a combeback, too. Oh, and ''everyone's voiced.'']]
*** ''Anime/HappinessChargePrettyCure''? The title sounds so cheesy and girly! I wonder if the series will be super girly and cheesy--wait, what?! The main character is the '''BLUE cure instead of the PINK one'''?! A purple cure who has a grudge against the main character? Tons of mystery in the background? A male friend who helps fight the evil minions some of the time?! Sign us up, Toei!!
** Oh, and each episode also begins with a CouchGag where a cure from one of the previous series introduces the show!
* Dammit, ''Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica'' is being postponed indefinitely...how can can this be happen--Hang on, [[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2011-04-10/madoka-magica-anime-to-resume-on-april-21 They're going to air the final 2 episodes]] after all? '''THIS IS GOING TO BE AWESOME!!!''' and it's back-to-back, even!
** A video game for the PSP by NamcoBandai? TheProblemWithLicensedGames rears up agai- Gen Urobuchi is supervising the scenario? Creator/StudioSHAFT is still doing animation? Gekidan [=InuCurry=] is designing new witches? March can't come soon enough.
** Hey, it looks like there are going to be two {{Compilation Movie}}s of the series! [[NoExportForYou Too bad it's only going to be screened in Ja]]- what? They're going to be distributed worldwide!? That's terrific news! [[SubvertedTrope Oh wait...they're only screening in a select few areas, and at bad times too]]...[[YankTheDogsChain life's not fair]]!
** Really there will be a second, completely NEW Madoka movie? And Yuki Kaijura makes the music? And Homura for once will be the main character? This movie will ROCK!
** [[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2015-12-08/madoka-magica-concept-movie-will-be-core-of-new-project/.96224 THIRD film]] announced!

* So, Creator/NozomiEntertainment is about to announce a "mystery license". I wonder which anime...Wait, they are licensing ''Manga/RoseOfVersailles''? Does this mean the anime is ''finally'' going to be released in the US?! '''''AWWWWW YES!!!'''''
** The manga has been licensed by UdonEntertainment, at long last! This one is especially an achievement since it was deemed impossible to license because Ikeda wanted a licensing fee that no known American publisher could even think to afford.
* Ladies and gentlemen, ''Manga/RozenMaiden'' just got a new anime. [[MemeticMutation It's desu time!]]
* Hm...''Anime/RevolutionaryGirlUtena'' is getting rema-oh [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion PLATNIUM]] (almost)! Oh, but we'll never see it in America, Central Park Me-Nozomi picked it up [[{{Squee}} OH GOD AND THEY ARE ASKING ADVICE FROM FANDOM]]!

*** Subverted [[NoExportForYou in Canada]], where that segment of the fandom is instead getting completely snubbed.
** Bah, none of that matters for the Latin-Americans fans, we're getting so screwed that despite having probably the best dub, we won't even see an official releas- What do you mean that the awesome Mexican Dub is getting DVD box-sets? With the openings restored and redubbed, remastered audio and video, and the original audio with subtitles? '''''YAY!'''''

* ''Anime/SamuraiPizzaCats'' to be released DUBBED AND SUBBED in DVD. DISCOTEK, ALL MY MONEY!!!
** Sadly, Japan is getting the Box Sets earlier on than US. Take that!
** It also got an official book released, and new toys are on the horizon. All this after around 2 decades of absolutely nothing.
* This is a bit old, but...[[Creator/MediaBlasters MEDIA BLASTERS]] LICENSED THE FIRST SEASON OF [[Manga/SayonaraZetsubouSensei SAYONARA ZETSUBOU SENSEI!!!]] Finally!!! Now if only they would stop [[ScheduleSlip postponing its release]]...
* ''VideoGame/SengokuBasara'' had an animation series, and then Creator/{{FUNimation}} picks it up for dubbing. We know the disaster of ''Devil Kings'' so I guess they will dub them as Devil Ki--HOLD UP, THEY ARE DUBBING IT AS THE ORIGINAL SOURCE OF SENGOKU BASARA!?!? '''[[GratuitousEnglish PUT YA GUNZ ON!!!]]'''
** What? Creator/ReubenLangdon is not reprising his role as UsefulNotes/DateMasamune for the anime? Boo...Wait a sec, what's this?? Creator/StephanieSheh and Creator/LauraBailey as Kasuga and Oichi!? Oh the bliss of Sheh orgasming! And Bailey is probably the most perfect person to lift up the [[AmericansHateTingle American hate]] towards Ichi! This is still going to be great, even without Masamune sounding like [[VideoGame/DevilMayCry Dante]]...
*** And not only that, Creator/JohnnyYongBosch returns as Yukimura Sanada!
* ''Anime/SenkiZesshouSymphogear'' is getting a second season, okay more Creator/NanaMizuki singing and Kicking ass. Let's see the new additions to the cast: Creator/YokoHikasa and Creator/YuiHorie. Good, good. Creator/NanaMizuki and Creator/YokoHikasa IN A DUET!! [[DreamTeam ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?!]]
* Creator/{{FUNimation}} dubbing ''Manga/SgtFrog'' could be considered one of these moments, though many fans were wary of the dub using a loose translation, which could go [[{{Woolseyism}} either]] [[{{Macekre}} way]]...then it was revealed that Creator/ChristopherSabat is voicing Giroro.
** Of course, a loose translation was exactly what the ''Sgt. Frog'' anime needed, in order to offset how watered and toned down the anime production was from the original manga. To say nothing of how the implementation of it was almost sheer genius in everything from episode titles to obscure references that even the nerdiest nerds of nerdom wouldn't have expected.
** Oh and of course, the "Test Episode". WHAT IS THIS?? NATSUMI RENAMED TO NATALIE?? THE FROGS NAMES CHANGED TO BE ONE LESS SYLLABLE? PLANET WUSSIAN?! MISTER FURBOTTOM?!? WHAT ARE THEY DOING, IT'S RUINED FOREVER!! Oh wait! They listened to the fans feedback and the real series will have no transliterated name changes after all?? Hooray for Creator/{{FUNimation}}!!!!
* The new seasons of ''LightNovel/{{Slayers}}'' are being dubbed by Creator/{{FUNimation}}? Oh, great, they'll probably just end up getting ADV's cast from the movies and-WHAT? They're bringing back the voice actors from the first three TV series?! OUR PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED!
** [[TheOtherDarrin Aw, but they replaced David Moo]]. His great Xellos performance easily made up for that [[NarmCharm laughably awful]] [[Manga/OnePiece Sanji]] voice of his...Wait. Creator/MichaelSinterniklaas is the one replacing him? This might be interesting.
* Creator/{{Sunrise}} is opening a new light novel publishing imprint named "Yatate Bunko", which they will use to release projects based off of their most popular works. One of said projects? ''[[Anime/GaoGaiGar King of Braves: GaoGaiGar]] vs. Anime/{{Betterman}}! HECK YEAH!''
* ''LightNovel/SwordArtOnline'' is getting an anime release? They're going to cover up to the Fairy Dance arc? Awesome!
** And Music/YukiKajiura is composing the soundtrack. Hell yeah!
*** '''SECOND SEASON. PHANTOM BULLET. GUN GALE ONLINE. YES.'''
** Until this new series comes on, where can I watch ''Sword Art Online'' now that its run on Toonami is fini....it's on Netflix!?
** The original {{Light Novel}}s are being released in America by Creator/YenPress. No-one thought this would happen.

* ''Manga/ToLoveRu'' is already long over. What? Its got an anime called ''Motto To Love Ru''. Sweet. A couple months later, the manga announces its triumphant return, with extra plot and a double dose of fanservice. Incredible. Then its announced that there will be side chapters published in a sister magazine. Better and better. And the newest piece of news? ''To Love-ru Darkness'' is having an anime release? The one manga that was declared too hot for tv is being released on tv? YES! I AM SO WATCHING IT! Its a good day to be a ''To Love Ru'' fan.
* So [[Creator/NipponIchi NIS America]] said they were looking into dubbing at [=AX=] 2013, yawn...if they going to keep their word on... what this? They're reissuing ''LightNovel/{{Toradora}}'' with an English dub on Blu-Ray? It's being dubbed by Creator/BangZoomEntertainment, and they got some nice [[Creator/ChristineMarieCabanos voice]] [[Creator/JohnnyYongBosch actors]] [[Creator/ErikKimerer in]] [[Creator/CassandraLee the]] [[Creator/ErikaHarlacher cast]]? This is gonna be awesome!
* Man, ''Anime/{{Tsuritama}}'' is never gonna get dubbed! Sentai's just gonna give it a sub only release--WHAT?! ITS GETTING DUBBED AND A BLU-RAY?!? YAAAAY!!!

* ''LightNovel/UnbreakableMachineDoll'' is [[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2013-01-21/unbreakable-machine-doll-light-novels-get-tv-anime getting an anime adaptation?!]] '''OH YEAH!!'''

* Oh look, the ending theme to ''Anime/ValvraveTheLiberator'' will be done by Music/{{Angela}}. That'll be nice...wait, the opening theme is being done by '''Creator/TMRevolution AND Creator/NanaMizuki'''?! HOLY CRAP, THIS IS GOING TO BE AWESOME!

* ''Franchise/WhenTheyCry'':
** A lot of people were really annoyed when they heard Creator/SayakaOhara playing Beatrice for the first time on a drama CD of the second arc of ''VisualNovel/UminekoWhenTheyCry''. Her voice was too low and deep, there was no way that she could troll and cackle the way Beatrice is supposed to. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F_1QuqO4dRo Then they actually got to hear her in the anime]]. Let's put it this way - there's a reason that both of the quotes on her page are from Umineko.
** [[VisualNovel/HigurashiWhenTheyCry Higurashi Kira?]] Pfft...What a way to milk the franchise, Creator/StudioDEEN....Wa--- Wait, [[http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lkfouuplc91qggctwo1_500.jpg what!?]]
** Adding to Higurashi Kira, the latest preview for episode 3 features Mion x Keiichi. At least half the fandom (excluding Keiichi x Rena fans) squeed here.
** The trailer for the ''Kaku'' movie. Specifically, the part where Rena battled someone with a gun, wielding only a cleaver. In glorious, glorious, modern animation. It looks like the next entry of ''Higurashi'' will return to the blood and gore that we all love.
* ''Anime/WolfsRain'' is getting a full [=DVD=] [[http://operationrainfall.com/2016/11/13/funimation-wolfs-rain-february/ rerelease]]! Twelve years of waiting is over!
* ''Manga/TheWorldGodOnlyKnows''. Fans go ''absolutely crazy'' anytime one of Keima's UnwantedHarem girls appear outside their capture arcs.
** The Goddess arc is going to force Keima into looking for Goddesses residing in his old capture targets?!?! MY BODY IS READY!!!

* '''Anime/XMen''' being aired on G4 with an English dub...oh great, they're going to get Creator/MiloVentimiglia back as...wait...'''Creator/SteveBlum''' coming back as '''''ComicBook/{{Wolverine}}''''' in the X-Men anime!! [=W00T=]!!! Marvel, you have finally been redeemed in the Marvel anime project.

* ''[[Manga/TheLegendOfZelda The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass]]'' manga. Akira Himekawa, what have you done to Astrid?! Linebeck?! Or, Link and Tetra, for that matter?! OK, this is, officially, the worst Manga adaption since ''Oracle of''-- Princess Zelda goes badass spirit-form?! Screw the DS game, ''this'' should have been in ''[[VideoGame/SuperSmashBros Brawl]]''!
** Ironically, the very ''same'' plot-twist caused a Fandom Rejoice moment for the next installment of the games, ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaSpiritTracks Spirit Tracks]]''. Apparently Nintendo was running out of ideas and took a look at the Manga...except that the Game Spirit Zelda is awesome for [[AnimatedArmor completely different reasons]] than the Manga Spirit Zelda
* Goddamn Creator/{{Funimation}} pandering to lolicons and perverts by licensing the second season of ''Anime/StrikeWitches'' and ''Manga/GirlsBravo''--Wait, they also licensed ''[[Anime/RebuildOfEvangelion Eva 2.22]]'' and ''Anime/SummerWars''? I-I'M FREAKING OUT A LITTLE!
* Anime Expo 2011, big time. Licenses include ''Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica'', ''Manga/BlueExorcist'', ''VisualNovel/SteinsGate'', ''Manga/DeadmanWonderland'', the anime version of ''VisualNovel/EfAFairyTaleOfTheTwo'', ''Manga/KimiNiTodoke'', and many more! Our wallets are going to hurt very soon.
* Fall2011Anime: ''FATE/ZERO'' ANIME BY [[LightNovel/KaraNoKyoukai UFOTABLE and KALAFINA?!?!]] ''PERSONA 4''?!?! Old news, *SpitTake* THE THIRD SEASON OF ''[[LightNovel/ShakuganNoShana SHAKUGAN NO SHANA]]''!?!? THE SECOND SEASON OF ''[[Manga/ShinryakuIkaMusume SHINRYAKU IKA MUSUME]]''!?!?! A ''[[Manga/KOn K-ON]]'' MOVIE!!! FALL IS GOING TO BE AWESOME!!!
** ''Manga/FutureDiary''. That is all.
* Creator/SentaiFilmworks rescued both ''Manga/RozenMaiden'' series and will release them in a collection. That's nice, though Creator/{{Funimation}} already released them, so-- Hold the phone! They got the ''Ouverture'' [=OVAs=] too? Worth it, even with no dub-- What? They ACTUALLY GOT Creator/BangZoomEntertainment to dub them, and there will be an individual release, too? You have my respect, guys!
** The relationship between Sentai and Bang Zoom! continues with the licensing of the ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight: Unlimited Blade Works'' movie and the second season of ''Manga/KOn'', getting the old dub cast members back. Naturally, fans rejoiced.
* Well, ''LightNovel/ShakuganNoShana III'' is Creator/JCStaff's main anime this year, I guess we'll have to wait another year for ''[[LightNovel/ACertainMagicalIndex A Certain Magical Index III]]'' and ''[[Manga/ACertainScientificRailgun A Certain Scientific Railgun II]]''-- Wait, [[TheMovie A movie for]] ''[[TheMovie Index]]'' [[TheMovie is coming out this year!?]] [[BigYes YESSSSSSS!!!]]
* Creator/CartoonNetwork '''''brought back its Creator/{{Toonami}} block''''' as an AprilFoolsDay joke on Creator/AdultSwim.
** [[UpToEleven AND]] [[https://twitter.com/#!/search/%23BringBackToonami IS CONSIDERING BRINGING IT BACK!]]
** '''[[BackFromTheDead TOONAMI'S]] [[{{Uncancelled}} BACK]] [[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2012-05-16/adult-swim-brings-back-toonami-block-starting-on-may-26 BITCHES.]]'''
** A shame that older series won't be return- Is that ''Anime/EurekaSeven'' coming back for ''{{Toonami}}''? [[BigYes AWW YEAH!!!!]]
** ''''[[http://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2012/09/26-1/toonami-expands-to-six-hours It's expanded to SIX HOURS]] THE MIDNIGHT RUN IS BACK!!!''''
** A shame that Toonami doesn’t have a lot of funding for long runners right now... wait, what you say? Manga/{{Naruto}}’s coming back to Toonami? '''AND IT'S UNCUT'''?! Aww yeah!
** Toonami seriously needs to have more high-profile anime that is not ''Bleach'' or ''Narut''- Huh? They're gonna air ''Manga/SoulEater''?! [[BigYes YEEEEEEEESSSSSSSS!!!]]
** After those releases, [[ToughActToFollow it's gonna be hard to follow up with those sho-]] What? ''[[Anime/RebuildOfEvangelion Evangelion 1.11]]'' [[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2013-03-10/evangelion-1.11-to-run-on-adult-swim-toonami-block is coming to Toonami?]] That's not all. ''Anime/OnePiece'' is coming [[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2013-03-10/one-piece-to-air-on-adult-swim-toonami-block to Toonami in the near future?!]] That means that for the first time, [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome all three SJ anime will air side-by-side!]]
*** And Evangelion-2.22 is going to air!
** FREAKING SARA AND IGPX ARE BACK! Oh, and TOM 5 and a new Absolution.
** Man, with the big 3 and ''Manga/SoulEater'', what's Toonami gonna do for an encore...wait, did Toonami just pick up ''LightNovel/SwordArtOnline?'' HELL YES!
** Toonami [[http://toonami.tumblr.com/day/2013/10/25 announced]] on their tumblr that they'd be simulcasting the world premiere of ''Anime/SpaceDandy'' on January 4th. That by itself is just [[IncrediblyLamePun fine and dandy]], ButWaitTheresMore Space Dandy will be used to kick-start an ''extended'' Toonami block, airing at 11:30 PM. They really aren't kidding when they say Toonami is "building you a better cartoon show".
** So, aside for Space Dandy, what else is Toonami up to...wait, Naruto is leaving!? [[FanDumb Does Toonami really believe that idiocy about Naruto killing Toonami.....]] wait, Naruto Shippuden is going to premier WHERE IT SHOULD HAVE!?! ON TOONAMI! 2014 will be awesome!
** You know, I think Soul Eater and Sword Art are ending in March, wonder what Toonami will get to replace their soul themed, [[AwesomeMusic great soundtracked]] brilliance of English Dubbing....Manga/BlueExorcist!!!!!!
*** So, we can probably assume that Sword Art is being replaced by Blue Exorcist, but what is replacing Soul Eater....Manga/BlackLagoon!? Its truly going to become ADULT swim Toonami now
** So, Toonami is doing a whole block to promote the X-Box One? UsefulNotes/ConsoleWars Neutrality aside, this means that the block will get a money boost, so we should be prepared for anyth.....WAIT, WERE THOSE CLYDES!?
** Yawn, the wait up to Toonami on Adult Swim is so boring, nothing but reruns of Seth Mcfar....wait, what was that commercial. Is it...can it..........[[Manga/AttackOnTitan Attack on Titan....premieres its dub May 3rd.!?]]!
** Toonami is showing off for the summer with the dub for Titan and the rescueing of Beware, I wonder what they....[[EnsembleDarkhorse Cooler's]] [[UnexpectedCharacter Revenge]] is airing? Um...Cool, I guess....kind of a odd choice, but cool.
*** And for the first time ever, aired on U.S. TV with the original Japanese soundtrack!
** And speak of the Devil....Dragon Ball Z Kai is going to Toonami in the Fall!
** Toonami becomes a hundred percent, no a thousand percent more manlier with Gurren Laggan coming this August!
** Toonami's running low of Black Lagoon episodes, they will need to replace it with something new soon, but I wonder what....[[Manga/{{Hellsing}} what, it can't be....]] Something so dark....so horrifying.....Crispin Freeman.......AND FULL LENGTH! OG NARTUO BEING REPLACED TOO!
** Bad news, Toonami's later hours were cut. But don't worry, [[Anime/KillLaKill Toonami hasn't lost it's way just yet, with Kill La Kill coming!]].
** Sword Art Online 2 will air on Toonami!
** Two Sentai Programs got to air on Toonami: Akame Ga Kill AND Parasyte the Maxim!
** Wait wait....what about FLCL getting new seasons!?
** Hunter x Hunter 2011 is finally dubbed AND airing on Toonami!
** Gundam's back! Iron-Blooded Orphans is flying in.
** ONE PUUUUUUNCH! One-Punch Man is on the way!
** You expected some other series to join Toonami, '''[[Anime/JojosBizarreAdventure BUT IT WAS ME,]] [[Main/MemeticMutation DIO!]]'''.
** So, after Dragon Ball Z Kai ends, Dragon Ball Super is going to be airing in its place in January! Of course, while it's nice to see Super finally getting dubbed, it stinks that Kai's cut of the Buu Saga (aka the Final Chapters) [[NoExportForYou is getting the shaft]]... wait, what's this?! Super and DBZ Kai: The Final Chapters are airing '''[[SubvertedTrope BACK TO BACK]]'''?!!?
* Creator/DiscotekMedia is actually ''bringing over the'' ''[[Manga/GetterRobo Shin Getter Robo VS Neo Getter Robo]]'' OVA after more than a decade!? '''[[MemeticMutation F*** DINOSAURS!]]'''
** And they picked ''Anime/MazingerZ'' AND ''Anime/CuteyHoney'' as well? And we're '''finally''' going to see an uncensored version of ''Mazinger Z'' in the US??? Discotek, you rock!
* On October 20 of 2012, there is this new anime named ''Aoi Sekai no Chuushin de''. Let's see what is it about! So, it is a war between the [[{{Sega}} Segua Kingdom]] and the [[Creator/{{Nintendo}} Ninterdo Empire]]. [[UsefulNotes/ConsoleWars That sounds familiar.]] So, the protagonists is named Gia and it is based on {{Sonic the Hedgehog}}. Seems like it is going to be some crap written by Sega fanboys. [[http://i.imgur.com/19sW7.jpg Let's take a look at the characters]]. So, it is got 9 Ninterdo characters and only 5 Segua, it is getting better. Wait, a minute, that Masa dude? HOLY SHIT! IT IS AN ''VideoGame/{{EARTHBOUND}}'' CHARACTER! That anime is going to awesome!
** [[Horrible/AnimeAndManga Never mind, it's terrible]].
* Remember all those anime series based on {{Light Novel}}s? Y'know, like ''LightNovel/ACertainMagicalIndex'', ''LightNovel/{{Durarara}}'', and ''LightNovel/{{Bakemonogatari}}''? Remember how you were sad that you'd only get to read {{Fan Translation}}s of the anime's source material? Guess what happened in 2015? Light Novels are coming out in English. ''Lots'' of them.

*** So what's going to happen for the next arc? Another tournament this time featuring fighters and Gods of Destruction from the rest of the multiverse? Intriguing but nothing too exciting...[[HesBack Android 17 is back]]? And he's joining the Z Fighters for the tournament? Awesome! Wait, is that Gohan wearing his Mystic outfit from the Buu Saga? Mystic Gohan has returned?! This is just getting better and better...You're kidding me, is that a '''female Super Saiyan'''? And it's a Legendary Super Saiyan at that? SQUEEEEEEEEE

** Ironically ''averted'' with the announcement of Code Geass: Lelouch of the Revival. The immediate reaction was not rejoicing, but fear that a new season would make the well-closed anime [[JumpingTheShark jump the shark]].
