And I made friends with someone who blogs on Vox now =D. But yeah, I'd be really happy to see Honto no Jibun even in just an anime store here, because those girls deserve it, dammit. But all we can do is wait and see.

Honto no Jibun is the one they're releasing, though, so it still holds on that point. But that may explain why I like Renai Rider better. I'unno, like I said, I don't keep up on Buono!. XD The girls are definitely profitable as hell. Every one of the Kids are talented, and Buono! makes up some of the cream of the crop, but in the US? I don't really think so... But I do believe the anime release (if it really is being licensed, which I think is currently the more likely of the two releases) will draw a lot more people to H!P. ...But will we get your standard idiotic otaku fans in the process? Eeeeugh. Let's hope this goes smoothly. :/ @Rad: True! Honto no Jibun is the one they’re releasing, though, so it still holds on that point. But that may explain why I like Renai Rider better.

I wouldn't mind seeing Buono! at the Anime Expo in L.A. over the July 4 weekend ... As for Buono! being owned by Pony Canyon, I think the anime theme is, but Buono! is a UFA trademark; there is no way that Tsunku would allow any further proprietary incursion with these three key girls. The second single, I think, is Tsunku's. Note that the first single is not being performed at Wonderful Hearts (at least not on the setlist), but that it was performed in C-ute's Sept. 30 concert at the Yokohama Blitz (and probably everywhere else on that C-utie tour). As for the US release, it would be interesting to see US reaction to it. Prediction: It won't be promoted one lick. The anime will have to carry it (just like Kusumi). I disagree on Buono! being not marketable; I think they are a great concept anmd we'll see how long Tsunku allows Pony Canyon to pull his chain. http://radicalpatriot.vox.com Hmm.
