5:43 - I don't even know what's going on here! Ooh, a big Kadokawa Pictures USA logo! And... that's it. Seriously, what the hell is going on here? Oh, cute girls on the stage. Chiyako Tasai and Yuko Abe, from Kadokawa. Call me.

This is the first time they're presenting at Anime Expo, ever. They're happy about recent licenses. They're going to update us on existing titles and then present new titles. 

Here we go:

- H2O - Footprints in the sand. 12 eps based on the eroge.

- Good Luck! Ninomiya-kun! I love this show more than you!

- Rental Magica - 24 eps. I need to watch this.

- Coo ~ Our Guardian - New title. 24 episode comedy and supernatural drama. Ooh, gender switching. Ooh, fox ears.

- Romantica ~Pure Love~ 12 episode BL comedy/ drama. Manga sold 3 million copies in Japan. 3 couples mixed together, calling it a "love diamond."

- Spice and Wolf - 13 ep series, based in Feudal Europe. Wolf spirit... wait. Why am I telling you this?

Updates on titles:

- The Girl who Leapt through Time - available August.

- Lucky Star - OVA in production now. Yay.

Oh, now Bandai Entertainment is taking the stage. What's going on here? Robert is everywhere! They're talking more about the limited theatrical release of The Girl who Leapt through Time. Someone from Ocean Studios is talking about the dub. 

Now they're doing a quiz to win prizes. There's a Haruhi body pillow. *heavy breathing*
