It's official. Code Geass has been licensed by Bandai.

7 days away from 24 and 25 too!! .T________T Not like we didn't see it coming.... Wonder if this will affect subbing. Probably not, but still.


EDIT: From ANN, "Bandai Entertainment announced its North American acquisition of Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion, which is confirmed for an American television broadcast during 2008."

Fudge. My wonderful day of reading Harry Potter has been ruined. I don't know why but I'm starting to hate Otakon... they announced the license of Ouran by Funimation too damn you Otakon!

I was expecting it though, with all the hints of Pizza Hut and Coke Zero in the ASOS Haruhi movies.

I can't believe they want to air it though, I was sure that they'd have to think twice about it with America being to Terrorist paranoid.

Bandai is a good company though, they did an okay job on Haruhi, I hope they'll try hard to promote Geass like they did with Haruhi.

If worse comes to worse, they'll edit out any explosions or falling buildings on TV but keep them on the DVDs. I remember the Cowboy Bebop movie was postponed because of 9/11 right?

I'm Canadian but I can't help feeling uncomfortable sometimes when I see explosions in large buildings in anime and all. I don't know... :x It's just me though. Others are desensitized to this sort of stuff.

Ah, I forgot about the editing out, but a lot of the anime is sorta centralized about Terrorists.

I never really thought much about the explosions in large buildings during an anime, but it does make sense to feel a little nervous. It just never occurred to me. I only get a little uneasy when there's massive blood... and lots of corpses.

But at least Ouran was licensed AFTER the series was long over and not 7 days before the last two episodes of the first season
