by GarryGod » Fri Nov 19, 2010 9:10 pm

Videogame publisher NIS America has announced its newest anime acquisition in Working!!, which has been retitled “Wagnaria”.

The series will be released in March 2011 in a two disc DVD collection packaged as a premium set. The Working!! anime adaptation was adapted from author Karino Takatsu’s manga that first appeared in the January 2005 issue of Square Enix’s Young Gangan anthology.

Their first release was Toradora. Of course they are.
Although I don’t know about the directions at 4:51.
It’s commonly known when you look north in Japan East is to your left. Please don’t try to correct that sentence. It lasts only for a second but I wouldn’t expect a mistake like that.

It amuses me that a distributor would licence a show with an english title and then change it to something else.
Must've been a (wait for it) working title. *badum tish*

It's likely an attempt at making it sound more exotic.

Or, just possibly maybe, my original assessment is true.

I'm placing maximum weight on this. And I have a lot of weight to apply.
