Informed commentary: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/editori ... -adv-films]What's Happening with ADV Films
Now, if I'm reading this correctly, ADV is getting out from under the thumb of a hostile shareholder, shaking up the corporate management, and splitting the less-profitable arms off into separate businesses while keeping their core-competency mostly-intact, at the cost of its name (one of the most recognizable in North-American anime fandom). Here's hoping it works, although I can't see any reason why it shouldn't.
