Announced last month, Broccoli emailed their fans last week in regards to their closing. There was much speculation on the survivability of anime in the United States with its decline partially due to fansubs and scanlators, and within the last few months many companies and corporations were hit even harder with the economic down turn and Broccoli turned out to be one of them.

Broccoli has just finished running several giveaways as well as selling off a large portion of their remaining items from their office and warehouse.They are currently still trying to keep some titles licensed in the US by discussing it with other publishers.

The people at Broccoli USA are wonderful people and we've enjoyed working with them in the past. This is saddening news and we wish them the best of luck in their future endevowers.
