It’s episode 2 of Shion no Ō. Will the stalker successfully be able to kidnap Shion, or will she be saved? What else might the stalker have planned for Shion? And someone else notices that Ayumi’s playing style isn’t exactly…ladylike.
It’s the same combo as Haruhi: Kadokawa USA licenses, Bandai Entertainment to distribute.
Here is a link to the teaser trailer on the 4th Haruhi DVD.
Added Note:
If you’re gonna license an anime series, perhaps you should go register the domain before you announce it, even if it’s 15 minutes before you send out the press release (it ain’t that hard). LuckyStar.com has already been sat on since something like 1997, but luckystaranime.com was registered just today apparently - and not by Bandai Entertainment or Kadokawa USA as far as I can tell. Oops.
Added Note 2:
I should have thought of this earlier, but I should note that this announcement hasn’t been independently verified. What that means is that I haven’t seen a reputable news service independently confirm that the trailer exists, nor has Bandai officially announced (nor have I gotten DVD 4 to see for myself). All there is to verify that it’s been licensed is the trailer on YouTube.
While it certainly looks authentic (it has different subs from at least the afk release, the font type and color is consistent with a DVD sub, and it would certainly make sense to include the Haruhi scene in a trailer on the Haruhi DVD), one can’t absolutely rule out it being a hoax.
