Suspended Indefinitely means exactly that, so it seems ADV is now in dire trouble. But it’s been rather difficult to get some concrete evidence of the facts from ADV or any reliable sources. Several retailers have reported that ADV Films has suspended indefinitely the shipments of the following anime titles:
* Shattered Angels
* Kanon
* Tokyo Majin
* Welcome to the NHK
The 4 titles mentioned above has also mysteriously vanished from the ADV website. At the ADV Sneak Peak panel at Anime Expo on Thursday afternoon, A.D. Visions co-founder Matt Greenfield acknowledged that his company had separated from its former business partner, Sojitz. What does his mean for us average anime fans out there. It means that ADV films have lost close to 90% of the newly licensed titles.
He indicated that, as a result, the status of recent titles are now “fate undetermined.” However, he did say that the company is negotiating for 23 more titles. Seriously don’t these people know any good business practices, rather then trying to acquire new titles why not consolidate what you have and try and save the sinking ship. Currently they have more money going out then coming in, and adding 23 new titles isn’t going to help…
