World Screen News reports that VIZ Media has worked out a deal to release Death Note and Bleach– both anime and manga –in Italy and Germany with The Licensing Machine, a division of Panini Comics, a European comics publisher that also translates and publishes licensed works, e.g. manga.

Last time I went to Italy I kept seeing Kodomo no Omocha on TV. The time before that there was this really popular music video for a song called “Regina del Celebrita” by a group called 883, and the video featured an anime chick who was, by the way, oddly reminiscent of Lum. (Hey look! YouTube has it!)

Anyway, my point is, I look forward to crazy-ass Italian dubbing of Bleach and Death Note next time I find myself in Rome or something.
