Gonzo Stripped of Strike Witches
The second series of loli-pantsu anime Strike Witches is no longer being produced by Gonzo, and the project is being put into the hands of AIC. Recently Gonzo had been suffering from numerous economic woes; they currently have a deficit of $30 million and had planned on firing up to 75% of its employees over the next 5 years.
In the past Geneon was responsible for anime such as Welcome to the NHK, Chrno Crusade, Full Metal Panic (Season 1), Samurai 7, Gankutsuou, Seto no Hanayome (with AIC) and many others. Gonzo’s most recent popular works are Rosario + Vampire and Saki. As far as I know there has been no news if this transfer of Strike Witches will delay the release of this series.

Welcome to the N.H.K. = 2nd best series ever made. That is all.
^ Best series by Gonzo anyways xD
I actually had the urge to rewatch NHK shortly after writing this post.
Strike Witches. Mehh. No Hocchan in it! >_> LOL.
I’m not really interested in Strike Witches, but I’m sad to see the death knell for Gonzo. They produced a lot of stuff I didn’t like, but every so often they made something good.
@ Zen: I’m not a fan of strike witches either… I made this post purposely because I hate strike witches =D
I actually did watch the first episode… but… =_____=
(Or rather was forced by a dictator-ish anime club president~) but…
Too many Panty shots… too many… panty shots… just… toooooooo muuuuuuuuuch >.<
I can say I to am not a fan. Even as a guy I find the panty shots to be way over the top. To the point where I cant even get into the story.
