Written by A. H. on 28 Oct 2016



The MCM London Comic Con is now underway, with day one bringing us plenty of license announcements from distributor Anime Limited, with plenty more still to come over the course of the weekend.

After yesterday's announcement of Free! Iwatobi Swim Club in advance of the event, today saw the following titles announced on the distributor's Announcement Wall:

- Mob Psycho 100 (sub-licensed from Crunchyroll)
- Assassination Classroom Season 2 (sub-licensed from Funimation Entertainment)
- Kiss Him, Not Me!
- March Comes in Like a Lion

Outside of home video acquisitions, the distributor also confirmed that they have acquired A Silent Voice theatrically, and the film will be receiving a limited theatrical run in the UK some time between late December and early January, with more precise details to follow soon on the Anime Limited web site. You can find our review of the film from its premier at Scotland Loves Anime right here.

It's also been confirmed that new acquistion Kiss Him, Not Me will be added to the UK's simulcast line-up on Crunchyroll imminently - the show was previously locked out of the UK on the service.
