The Anime & Manga industry is without question, a widespread success across the western world. The fan-base for Anime rose exponentially in the 1990's, and has come to easily rival other big franchises such as DC, Marvel, Star Wars...etc. 

With the ever-growing popularity, fans can thank such companies as Funimation Entertainment andViz Media for releasing many of the more popular series in English. Even other series that are not officially licensed by any company, thousands of fans work to translate the newest Manga chapters and add subtitles to newest episodes and movies. All varying across different sites and fan translation websites, eager to read and watch more Anime!

So basically what i'm saying is this: Anime is extremely popular here in the west. I could keep talking about Anime and its popularity but i'll get right down to the point.

When J-Stars Victory Vs was first announced, fans were pumped with excitement and still are with all the current news regarding the game being released. The game has some of the most popular characters all from Shonen Jump series, a Manga magazine that released weekly chapters in japan, although it did run in the U.S for quite awhile but recently stopped its paperback release. 

The whole point of this is simple: we want J-Stars Victory Vs to be released in english overseas. At the same time it should be both dubbed in english by each characters respective voice actor, and given subtitle & audio options since some prefer Japanese va's.  Why namco hasn't already announced a U.S release date is shocking, those fools are practically denying a grand money-maker. This game contains all the most popular anime series (shonen) and put them into an epic fighting game! Every character both playable and support are extremely popular and well-received by fans. More than half of the characters in the game are already licensed and dubbed in english, but by different Companies. For example: Funimation own rights to One Piece, Toriko & Dragon Ball Z, while Viz owns Naruto & Bleach.

While we all know that the multiple companies owning each respective series may have issues with licensing in a situation like this, but a compromise should be made between namco and the other english networks. With the Playstation 4 dominating and leading the new video game generation, the PS3 won't be making new video games forever. This is one of the last PS3 game to be made of the ending generation, fans across North America, the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand have more than enough right to own it in english! 

In conclusion: J-Stars Victory Vs should be released in english for the thousands, if not millions of fans to enjoy. This game is basically an anime version of Super Smash Bros, but even better! Not only is namco once again disappointing countless fans by not releasing this game overseas, but they are also denying a huge profit to be made. 

Lets all spread the word! Lets all get J-Stars Victory Vs!
