Now, if CR was able of getting the uncensored To-Love Ru Darkness 2nd season, I'd be really happy.

So everything is the Americas and U.K. + Ireland in for some shows, and even less for Australia & New Zealand. The rest of Europe and Asia got the short end of the stick here.

I'm incredibly psyched for the start of DRRR!!x2 Ten. I just hope that when the new seasons see a physical release they can all be bundled into one absurd, gloriously over-the-top box set that can justify the price tag.

The first cor of Durarara!!x2 was simulcast on AnimeLab in Australia & New Zealand, instead of Crunchyroll. Chances are, they'll have it again.

Europe is out of the loop again?
And they ask me why do I still keep downloading torrents, because of this crap.

O well, if I like the shows I can still import them later on (and Aniplex is not really helping us with that either)

Hopefully Aniplex USA finds it in their hearts to give NISA the rights for home video release...oh wait, they don't have a heart, that's right.
Guess we won't be getting a nice hardcover artbook instead of useless postcards for twice the price we'd be paying for an NISA release.

There's my obligatory rant about the prices, but seriously, this is not the note I want to leave off on for the Wagnaria!!/Working!! series.

Viewster has acquired Wagnaria!!3, Classroom Crisis and Charlotte, with regions TBC. Hopefully they'll have some other European territories too.

But, I believe these titles have been licensed through Aniplex of America, who only cover the Americas and the English-language rights for Aniplex, which would explain why none of the licenses expand beyond that. And, unfortunately for us Europeans, North American rights are the most profitable, so they'll always been given priority over Europe. The UK & Ireland just benefit from the shared language.

I very sporadically use it to preview series by watching a couple episodes before I make my buying decision. I'll subscribe for a month at the end of a season, watch everything, place my preorders and unsub. I'm not a fan of streaming for a variety of reasons and in general I'd rather not support digital models. I'm also not a thief so torrenting is out of the question anyway.

I no longer buy anything released by them on principal.

Nope, I've never made use of Crunchyroll. I abundantly visit other streaming websites instead, since they allow me simpler access to earlier anime shows, particularly ones that go back as far as the early 1990's.
