Psychic Academy Liscensed

Post by inuhikarifan » Fri May 27, 2005 2:28 pm

Who on Earth would liscense Psychic Academy? The manga is awesome but the anime sucks, and not just because each episode is 9 minutes long. But no doubt they will spread it out over many DVDs and charge top dollar for it. I laugh at them- mwa ha ha ha. No-one who has done any research on it and read reviews is going to buy it. (I heard it was liscensed off of AnimeSuki.com) Does anybody know who liscensed it? And would you buy it?

I think it was Geneon -- and it will be in two volumes. I was also banging my head against the table when I heard about this.

I have seen a lot of retarded anime, but Psychic Academy is right up there among the worst. As for why it got licensed, well, the opportunity to rip off fanboys by giving them poorly drawn boobies is a powerful temptation.

The manga eventually developed a plot... if you managed to get halfway through it. The only good stuff that got animated was the rabbit-thingy.

Found it!

Tokyopop has liscensed it. They will be releasing in two volumes- the first volume is going to be released on September 13. They're going to put it with manga #9 in a box set as well.
I'm still in shock- I didn't know Tokyopop did DVDs!
I must say, my faith in Tokyopop has gone down a bit now.

Tokyopop has released anime DVDs before though their methods are quite questionable (especially the way they handled Rave Master and Initial D :? ).
