From episode… well, Mr Shillito didn’t mention which when he submitted it over the Twitters, but I’m presuming it’s one of the later ones.
In a curious twist of timing, NISA announced that they’ve picked up the US license for the show, even if it won’t likely see the light of day until next year. I would say it was the most surprising license of the AnimExpo weekend, but I can’t really say I expected anyone to pick up Ro-Kyu-Bu of all things (or Loups-Garous given the complete lack of positive things I’ve read about both the book and the anime). Still, it’s a Go Negai property that isn’t exactly rife with the super-robots or hyper-violence that Negai tends to be known for in the West, which I guess makes it a curious pick up if nothing else.

NISA as in Nippon Ichi? Why would they pick this show up when there are many others that are much more suited for it.

Yeah, NISA as in Nippon Ichi, and… I dunno, maybe they just feel an affinity for anything vaguely demon-worldy.

It’s from episode 12 (the final one).
I believe NISA are planning on dubbing this, so I’m hoping for a UK release. I loved this show XD
