MasterDias wrote:Granted, they always include a disclaimer that a C&D doesn't necessarily mean a license but I'm skeptical that they would actually bother to send one out if they weren't seriously considering the title. It would be rather pointless otherwise.

All the character's names are Japanese puns, a large dose of the humor is in split second kanji in chalk, etc. Any company that heavily localizes its licenses (and Funimation is) isn't going to touch it. Even companies experimenting with subbed-only distribution will have problems with the sheer ammount of translation shoehorned onto the screen at any given time.
It is possible Zetsubou is licensed, but I wouldn't pin anything on it.

I demand a box set priced at 40 dollars with the Geneon dub.
