Questions about licensed material

Post by Iznogoud »

Suzumiya Haruhi (anime) is not yet licensed in Europe.
I expect it to be licensed in France soon, even it Haruhi is only knew by the ones of us who read english blogs and watch english subs.

But the chance for the novels to be licensed for a publication in french is close to zero.

So what happens to the french translation project if the novels get licensed in the US ?

dunno why you added it here.... :roll:

But to answer your question, the answer is simple.

Unless the novel is licensed for French speaking Quebec, (which is...never)

The French project will be unaffected, in all principle upheld, i see no reason why the Big Boss should be forced to pull the French version off.

Besides, the French group have their own Japanese -> French translator i believe so, realistically even if the English version is pulled, they can still work from the original.
