All the Titles Fit to License, 2013 Edition

We are posting this list a little early in the hopes it can be helpful to people making year end lists and the such. We’ve included all anime, manga, artbooks, light novels, and successful crowdfunding projects for the U.S. on our list. We’ll update the list as the month goes on in case companies have some holiday surprises in store.

There were nearly 200 anime licensed or rescued in 2013, pretty incredible. And almost half of those were from Sentai Filmworks.
