Animatsu & MangaUK Industry Panel Announcements at London MCM Comic Con May 2015

It’s been a year since Jerome Mazandarani, the previous head of acquisitions at Manga Entertainment UK and now CEO of his new company Animatsu Entertainment, took to the stage at the London MCM Comic Con to make announcements surrounding new anime licenses but he, along with his side-kick Andrew Hewson, were back in top form this weekend with wave-after-wave of glorious anime news – all of which you can see for yourself in our video of the panel.

The reason for this, and its something that we have mentioned before, is that Animatsu Entertainment are not only a distributor (and/or licensor) but they will also act as promoter (and licensor) for Manga Entertainment UK. In other words this formula of seeing two different brand-names but one set of people announcing titles will most likely be here to stay from now on.

No; the reason for this ‘unique announcement‘ is that Sentai Filmworks have acquired Parasyte – The Maxim for American, UK, Australian and New Zealand release; which means that Sentai Filmworks themselves will be handling the release of this show within these countries.
