Rental Magica, Spice and Wolf, Junjou Romantica, more confirmed for U.S. release; no distributor named yet.
At their panel, the industry representatives from Kadokawa USA announced that their company now holds the North American licenses to the anime series Junjou Romantica, Spice and Wolf, Rental Magica, My Heartfelt Sympathy, Ninomiya-kun, H2O ~Footprints in the Sand~, and Coo ~ Our Guardian (Wagaya no Oinarisama.). Last month, Kadokawa USA requested that the AnimeSuki.com website remove links to the unauthorized fansubs of all six of these series, along with five others.
Generally, Kadokawa USA does not actually distribute anime in North America directly, but partners with other, more established companies. No specific distributor for any of the six series has been named yet.
Updated. The original Japanese title of Coo ~ Our Guardian is Wagaya no Oinarisama., and it was also included in Kadokawa USA's cease-and-desist letter to AnimeSuki.

Neko's Take: *Sighs* This means Wagaya no Oinarisama and Junjou Romantica will have to be put on "hold". >.<" I...dislike dubs. Personally, I wish American's would simply sub all anime, rather than dub it. But that's my personal opinion.
