This month's AI had a top 10 titles that have yet to be licensed. I've posted them above. Of the ones listed, Bleach, Future Boy Conan, Doraemon, and Legend of the Galatic Heroes are certainly on my list.

Bleach has already been confirmed as liscenced.

Actually, it's not confirmed officially. But that's already been addressed in annother thread. It's really hard to pick just one out of those, but I would say (much to MSP's delight) Monster. It was real close between that and Bleach, but Monster is so unique and thought-provoking.

Wha--? Where's Honey and Clover!? XD

I guess, in light of the shocking lack of Hachikuro, I'll have to go with Beck.

I was only going with what the article said, Mangafanatic.

Doraemon is implausible. It's too Japanese and far too long with several thousand episodes and several dozen movies. It would take years and years to release it all and I can't see any companies really spending that much time or effort on it. The series is around 5 times the size of Detective Conan...
Although, I suppose they could only choose to release select episodes.

Bleach is a given.

Beck will probably be licensed eventually whether or not Funimation has it like the rumors were stating awhile back.

Future Boy Conan is old but it looks like it has the Nadia or Castle in the Sky adventure feel to it. I wouldn't mind seeing this.

Monster would also be interesting.

The Hunter X Hunter anime is probably going to be licensed by Viz.

Versailles and LGH are both series I want to see, though I'd bet it unlikely due to the age of Versailles and the unconventional distribution of LGH (done via mail order)

I voted monster. But hunter x hunter is also a good series

Anime on DVD wrote:Viz Media on Bleach (09:50 AM EST): Due to the nature of the C21 Media article being a pay subscription service (the company is quite reputable in its industry), we can't quote the full article due to copyright considerations. There has been some initial confusion among folks based on hearing quotes from the European part of Viz Media but this is the quote in addition to the header that I feel is most relevant to indicating that the title is licensed: "Bleach is one of the big heavy hitters coming out of Japan, for which we have pretty big expectations. It is a very highly rated show on TV Tokyo at the moment," said John Easum, executive VP of Viz Media." And, of course, with the article title being "Japanese animÃ© and manga licensor Viz Media has acquired its first title aimed at the older teen and young adult demo." it seems to back that up as well. Bleach's manga has long been acquired and released and C21 Media doesn't exactly cover manga as breaking news.

Or am I missing something?

OK, so Viz hasn't explicitly said, "Yes, we liscenced it" yet.

ROFL, Monster, so I could actually watch it without it blowing up my computer. XD

PostPosted: **Sun Mar 19, 2006 2:43 pm**

I'de like to see Monster...It seems quite neato.

PostPosted: **Sun Mar 19, 2006 3:08 pm**

Not much of a choice So I picked Hunter X Hunter. Why do I have a bad feeling that 4kids is gonna make someones wish come true.

Oof those listed, Beck. But before that I would rather have Yakitate!! Japan.

PostPosted: **Sun Mar 19, 2006 5:34 pm**

is hoping for monster

PostPosted: **Sun Mar 19, 2006 5:46 pm**

I'd like to see Monster released soon. But not just for the US, the rest of the world also. Including Australia. (wink)

PostPosted: **Sun Mar 19, 2006 6:36 pm**

You mean nightmare..........

PostPosted: **Mon Mar 20, 2006 11:39 am**

I voted Bleach cause my bro likes it.... lol

PostPosted: **Mon Mar 20, 2006 11:49 am**

I kept saying to myself "Bleach or Monster? Bleach or Monster?"

Well, now that Bleach has been confirmed as licensed, I'm voting Monster.

PostPosted: **Mon Mar 20, 2006 7:47 pm**

I would rather they have releases in japanese with subtitles, the dubs take so much out of a show... I hope Bleach will be released uncut with the japanese/subs...

PostPosted: **Mon Mar 20, 2006 8:39 pm**

None of the above titles are any that I really care to see.

Likewise. My vote would go to something like Sailor Stars (and all the other SM specials).

PostPosted: **Mon Mar 20, 2006 9:04 pm**

I don't really know anything about the animes listed
*tosses in random vote: 'Karin'

PostPosted: **Mon Mar 20, 2006 9:07 pm**

You know what would be way better? Another season of Berserk, or five.

PostPosted: **Mon Mar 20, 2006 9:30 pm**

The lack of Air and Kanon makes me sad.... Paradise Kiss?! That bored me!

PostPosted: **Wed Mar 22, 2006 10:27 am**

AI can have some pretty funny ideas... I ONLY watched Akira because they raved on about it for about 5 issues, and I didn't even find it as good as they made it out to be :/

I know over a year ago their pics were quite different, including things like Sailor Stars and stuff in it... of course some of their picks like Hikaru no Go and One Piece have already been made
