Because they're releasing it in other countries. This thread is for more than just US licenses.

Dec 28, 2013 12:03 PM by Numi

That's MangaUK, the UK branch of Manga Entertainment.

Dec 28, 2013 12:03 PM by kuuderes_shadow

if funimation has already released Highschool dxd then why is manga enertainment releasing it??

Dec 28, 2013 11:55 AM by Setsuna200

Before I wouldn't post them, but since I'm doing the all-in-one topic now I'll just toss them in.

Dec 26, 2013 4:13 PM by Florete

Do license rescues count for this thread?

Anyway, new licenses that are also on that article:
Anime Limited have Hal, as expected.

MangaUK have Robotics;Notes and the Blue Exorcist film.

Well damn, it's certainly Christmas time at FUNimation! I've been waiting to rewatch the second season as well as watch the movie in English. I hope the whole Raildex anime franchise thus far gets dubbed.

That typo was there for so long lol.

Madman* :P

Dec 23, 2013 1:16 AM by loghneckbeard

Wow I kind of failed on the uptake here.

Got all the new stuff in, will get updates soon.

Dec 23, 2013 12:31 AM by Florete

MVM is in the UK & Ireland.

I wouldn't post about licenses for other countries. Even when I do find out about them before there is a post on here.

Dec 21, 2013 12:29 AM by kuuderes_shadow

Ok i dont get what your saying. Pretty much all of those series are already available to buy, or are these just different companies releasing the same titles?

Dec 20, 2013 4:21 PM by Bluballz

As if that wasn't enough stuff to post last time, Toei have leaked that MangaUK will be releasing Dragon Ball, starting in Summer next year.
