I always wonder if licenses like these make their money back… licenses for run-of-the-mill bishoujo/whatever comedies that have not really captured the interest of the fandom. Who really wants to buy Nyan-koi on DVD?

Who knows… batch licensing isn’t all that uncommon (or unlike trading baseball cards back in the day, I sometimes comically imagine).
In any case, Section23 Films doesn’t have very many titles of this genre at present, so I don’t find it too odd a license if I give them so much leeway as to expand their catalogue.
