Licensing DMC was/is a no brainer. You have a built in audience of people who have literally grown up with Dante.

Since the game has a broad appeal for both anime and non-anime fans alike, it’s a sure thing as far selling it to the North American market.

Gurren-Lagann licensing is BIG news.
Didn’t expect ADV to get it though…
