However, it seems we should know Friday who has the show. My bet is on Kadokawa Pictures USA being the group who has it. That would mean they would probably be putting it out in a similar manner to Full Metal Panic: Second Raid, which would mean ADV Films, Funimation, or both, would be involved with the dub and distribution but that's just my personal theory, your milage may vary ;).

Bandai Entertainment Nobody thought it was going to be Bandai, and they pulled off quite the coup. Now, hopefully they will be able to do this series justice. I can't wait to hear about news on this eventual release!!
