Welcome to the November 7 edition of BellaOnline's Anime newsletter!

Over the weekend, I was alerted to the fact that Geneon USA, one of the bigger anime distributors in the United States, was withdrawing from distribution as of November 6 (yesterday). After doing some research, I wrote up an article about it, which I posted on Saturday. Normally, I post articles on Wednesdays; however, in a case such as this where it was essentially a "breaking news story," I will post a story before Wednesday.

On a lighter note, I updated the word list for the word games today with a few words related with to Spirited Away, the topic of this week's other new article.
