Couple of follow up comments
To pimp out Nanoha more (as is my fanboy ways), I offer these:

I'm happy to report that Nanoha will finally be getting an R1 release thanks to Funimation picking up Geneon's titles. I'm stoaked.
Also, despite what you may hear on the internet, Nanoha is
not a shoujo-ai show. Its focus is on friendship and family. And giant magical blasts to the face.
And this is the main reason why Reideen the Superior is said to be 'gayer than Wing'

The reason there's so much male nudity in this show is because when they transform, their clothes rip off. When they un-transform, they're buck naked, which leads to all sorts of hilarious situations.
A bit of a shame we didn't do the industry segment after this weekend, since AX brought in a whole slew of R1 news. Bandai continues to be a stable pillar, maybe just a little stronger than before. Funimation also continues to dominate the scene, rescuing both Geneon
and ADV titles.
All hail Funimation! Our R1 Anime Kings!
