Instead of 'airing' I should've written 'broadcasting'. That's what he actually said, my bad. He'll have most likely meant Crunchyroll. Why he specified America was slightly disappointing, I hate it when people consider America to be 'worldwide'. France has an anime/manga scene which could rival Americas from what I've read. Really? I had no idea our French friends were fans as well. I do like some of the animation from there as well, Persepolis and The Triplets of Belleville being examples. I agree it is not "fair" but it is how markets work, the bigger the market, the more likely it gets a shot at any product or service. We're spoiled here in that regard. I do hope anyone who wants to experience Senran Kagura gets the chance to do so.

Going off topic but manga in France is a really big thing iirc. There are some great titles in the French market you won't find elsewhere. They also have one of the biggest cons in Europe, Japan Expo: www.japan-expo.com/en/I believe that's been so successful they arranged to have on in the US somewhere.

Because America is the best country on Earth. /joke But its because we are the most prominent in terms of sheer country awareness. We make the biggest asses of ourselves, so we are naturally first on everyone's radar

Don't tell me Ikaruga will have to face both Yomi and her step-brother(?) on the same episode?!

Damn, the subbers giving us that plug was pretty neat of them. I highly doubt it, what television channels actually air anime in the United States these days? If I had to pick a most likely candidate, Adult Swim would probably stick it on its Toonami block. You're right, though. Even if that was the case, it'd be way too soon. Because America is the best country on Earth.

How likely are Blu-Ray releases via Funimation then? Certain 100% and Dub with a sub option is definitely 100%
