Alright, I’m exhausted from all this anime (and all the non-anime stuff I’ve been doing), so I’m going to bed. But before I go, you should know that Canned Dogs has a post about a Japanese blogger who managed to make his way into the office of Visual Arts, the company that owns Key (the company that made the games Kanon, Air, Clannad, etc).

Sleep time now. Hope you enjoyed my six first dates for today. (If you have any thoughts/suggestions to improve them, feel free to let me know.) ♥

The ADV panel (see liveblog thread) started out with just trailers, then talked about ADV manga a bit. They’ll be announcing some new licenses over the next few months, and they’ll also be collecting Azumanga Daioh into an omnibus edition which will come in a larger trim size, which is pretty groovy.

Jumping back to anime, ADV plans to start putting out much of its new anime in a monthly fashion, starting with Air TV.

Then they announced the film Appleseed EX Machina, which is pretty interesting giving FUNimation’s announcement of Vexille by the team behind the original Appleseed flick. They also plan on putting out a bundle of a bunch of their movies, and that’s pretty much it for ADV announcements.

Edit: Just to clarify, ADV is doing production work on Appleseed EX Machina, i.e. the dubbing - Warner Home Video still presumably has the rights.
