From Saishin Anime Jōhō via ANN -
The date for the release of the 2-Volume OVA for Sex Pistols manga has been decided
Gorgeous limited as well as normal editions will be on sale.
Original character “Hoikushi” will appear (CV Yusa Koji).
Ray’s Take: Uh…Well, it’s called “Love Pistols” in the US…Um…Is that like Ai Shafts? Or Grand Swords? Or Mister Rods? Oh I got one -Speartus Longinus…
Moving on…
I'm a hardcore Anime Fan and I'm proud of it. I know so many things and I've acquired so much knowledge you wouldn't believe. But my love is anime. I've been drifting in this world for so long that I don't even know what an anchor means. I've seen so many shows that I've lost count. The only thing I'm sure of myself is that I care for the lowly and disenfranchised. I hate the rich and powerful and I love what I do, or what I can do. I like anime and I don't mind watching different types of shows. I have experience in different types of Japanese animation. I would be called an "expert" in a bizzaro world. One day, I'd like to start a revolution. I love the US, pizza, beer, sashimi, Chinese food, and steak. But I love freshly baked bread more than a well-aged steak. In reality, if I were born Japanese I'd be a real, hardcore Otaku. I love to love and I can hate strongly. I'm passionate in nature and I don't mind shedding tears.

I suppose just as with Midori no Hibi conflicted with the band name Green Day, and was thus translated Midori Days, Sex Pistols would conflict with the British punk band which it refers to. Love Pistols is just comical, though.
@ moritheil – “Love Pistols” is akin to a porn title for men to watch. This manga is BL stuff and is potential masturbatory material for women so the US version name is really unsuitable for that purpose…
Well, maybe some female readers may like to have “Love Pistols”?
Midori Days is actually not that bad, considering the story can be explained in terms of Midori spending her days as…Hand puppet, Thumbalina, Rosy Palm, Fistina…Well, you know.
