They can't acquire titles that have been already been acquired by another company. Funimation has the right to both titles.

Shana is stuck until the merger with Universal Pictures of Japan and Geneon Japan is complete. They renewed season 1 (confirmed on their forums) and have acquired season 2 and the OVAs.

According to Lance (Funimation rep), they are still waiting for materials for Strike Witches 2.

So... I gather that we can bet on them coming to TRSI, it's just a matter of when?

They'll be listed when ever Funimation is ready to release them.

As long as they're at it with the Shana series, they could rerelease Familiar of Zero.

Now that one you can post in this request thread.

The title preformed poorly and won't be acquired by Funimation.

Since I recently finished watching all of it, finally, and really enjoyed it, here's another request from me that will more than likely not be fulfilled but I might as well still try anyway:

Naikaku Kenryoku Hanzai Kyousei Torishimarikan Zaizen Jotaro

When it debuted back in 2006 it was lambasted as one of the worst animes of all time, but that's mainly because the first episode is truly horrific. Thankfully, the other 10 episodes tell a really fun and interesting story of dirty politicians and businessmen taking money from hard-working citizens taxes and the organization whose purpose is to stop these kinds of things from happening. These 10 episodes easily make up for the horrible start episode 1 gives it.

Also, the DVD boxset that was released in 2007 was handled in a cool way; 4 DVDs that cover all 11 episodes, one Bonus DVD that features a couple of really cool extras (a roundtable discussion featuring the staff & cast and the TV "on-air" version of episode 1), and, best of all, the entire show was given improved animation for the DVD release; that certainly explains why the "on-air" version of episode 1 is there as an extra, since it lets viewers compare the original animation with the improved DVD animation. If someone can give this show the fair shot it deserves, and probably maintain all of the extras, it's certainly TRSI/Nozomi.

Would love to see sekai Ichi hatsukoi picked up I'm hoping it will happen since junjou was already done =]

I agree with sekai ichi hatsukoi


*still hoping for Sasameki Koto to be picked up too*

In light of recent developments at Bandai, how about Turn A Gundam?
