Chatterbox - Anime & Manga

Well, at least the manga's just come out, and the localization here is absolutely awesome and full of woosleyisms.

Meanwhile, there's no English release of the manga anywhere to my knowledge. :/

@The Handle: Those were some great reactions. I would even call them "Win"

There is a Spanish release.

Yeah, those were epic reactions.

I figured as much. That's why I pointed out that there was no English release.

I still refuse to outright confirm or deny anything about my location, dammit!

Ebitennote , Joshiraku, and Kingdom

Wrong! Funi's been simulcasting that one. Aside from the use of CG half the time, not that bad.

BTW, first two eps of Aria The Scarlet Ammo are up dubbed.

By the way, the Little Busters anime event and preview just finished. For those who have Niconico premium accounts, you can probably still watch it at this link: [1]

A survey by the way was given after the short (they said it was just 15 minutes long) preview, and surprise, apparently 94% liked what they saw.

Oh, before anyone gets TOO optimistic, we're given an episode count for it too: 26. Yes, for now, Little Busters is getting only 26 episodes.

Isn't that the norm for anime?

Sweet! I've been waiting for the Aria The Scarlet Ammo dub. Sounds better than expected.

The source VN is longer than CLANNAD, and that one, even with two routes cut out and others stuck together, lasted 50 episodes.

These guys look like they are having fun..

We need a manga equivalent of Crunchyroll.

Even better.

I wonder why that didn't come up when I Googled... -__-"

Agreed. Shonen Jump Alpha's too slow, not to mention locked to Canada and the US, and only recently picked up one non-combat series because they had no other choice.

I wouldn't say no other choice (they could have just fiddled with the monthly titles to cover the empty spot until a new fighting manga came in) but given the last two fighting manga bombed, sports might be the way to go.

We could use a few more people in the SJ Alpha thread, as long as they remember we're two weeks behind the times.

I'd join in on that thread's discussion (since I'm following Cross Manage and Takama-ga-hara through Alpha), but I keep forgetting and there really isn't much talking going on on there.

That's why we need more people.

Well, they're too slow. It is sad that amateurs can do so much better!

To be fair, even if they were faster, the illegal scans go up a week before the street date, so they still wouldn't be able to outpace scanlators.

But two weeks after the street date is too much. That said, it's likely a licensing issue rather than a speed one.

Not sure what to think of this.

It aired too fast, the Japanese licensor got mad and they took away the rights to broadcast it?

Grumble teenager erotica grumble why does it even exist grumble grumble.

Symphogear season 2 comfirmed.

What happened was simple, there was an error on someone's part that made it run on TAN more than half a day before Japan, so the contract was pulled. Who knows if those shows will even stream now.
