Sankarea OADs Announced
The staff and cast of the upcoming zombie romantic comedy anime television series Sankarea will also produce a pair of exclusive OADs to be released with limited edition copies of the sixth and seventh volumes of Mitsuru Hattori’s original manga, released on June 8 and November 9 respectively. Hattori will provide the story outline for both episodes while TV series screenwriter Noboru Takagi will compose the OAD scripts. The first OAD has already been confirmed to be a prequel to the TV series story. Studio Deen’s Sankarea TV anime is scheduled to premiere in April.

You think someone will license this OVA and the TV series for the US???
I thought High School of the Dead did okay.
I finally watched that on Blu ray late last year and was impressed by the show.
I know it had a lot of fan service and there was bitching about that — what do you expect guys, and since when did so many fem-men enter the anime fandom circles??? — but the show had some fairly decent drama, good performances, and a lot of well-animated action scenes. Turned out a lot better than I expected. Fairly faithful to the manga, too.
This would seem a natural license. Teens still like cheesy horror regardless of who produces it. Some of the Japanese horror films have done decently in the US from what I gather.
