Update from the front page:

Right Stuf's Nozomi Entertainment Licenses ARIA Anime

It's official! Right Stuf, Inc. and Nozomi Entertainment are pleased to announce the licensing of ARIA. The box set for the first season, ARIA the Animation, is scheduled for September 30, 2008, and already up for pre-order via the official series site. It will feature the entire 13-episode first season with Japanese audio and English-language subtitles, and there will be announcements about additional ARIA releases in the future!

Please stop teasing us

May Flowers
Maid Flowers
Flowers = Hana
Maid Hana
Maid in Hanaukyo 1st series?

I know I'm wrong, but I can dream of replacing my R2s someday.

good guess

I don't know why but for me each time i read this hint i have an image of Da Capo in my head.

Ignore Sianspheric. Please continue to tease us.

I've no idea what to expect for this one, none of the clues hint at anything but there are plenty of titles I want. Of course, even if this one isn't a title I care about, they licensed MariMite, so they can license a few I don't care bout and I can't complain.

That aside, with the new forum going up, I'd expect to see the announcement very soon. I'd expect it to come within the first week of May, perhaps even the first day.

So, continuing to taunt us, eh?

I am curious to see what you're going to give us next.

I'm still hoping for Souten no Ken.

Why? Because the top-most hint on the list originally had a different hint back when it was the second hint (before Maria was announced):
"This one that goes here will make people heads explode. That would be messy!"

Heads explode? That generally would be either Hokuto no Ken or Souten no Ken.

Heh. I too would like D.C.~Da Capo~, but Aria would be nice too. Regardless, of Nozomi's last three announcements (the Third, Emma, & MariMite), all three were hits with me. So the odds that it will be something I like are pretty good, I think.

Regardless, you did bring over and (after a while) release ToHeart, so I'm indebted as it is.

Alison! By any chance, are you guys trying to pull off a Bandai on us?
