So according to the ICv2 website (the article was quickly pulled), ADV Films has put their release of 37 shows/movies “on indefinite hiatus, effective immediately.” They are:

There have already been numerous factors that hinted at problems within ADV, so this isn’t that surprising. However, the article was pulled because this information is not necessarily true. It was published before the letter from ADV was even sent out, and there’s a chance that ADV has at least in part, rectified the situation. So while the possibility exists that it will be months before we see any more releases of these titles, I’m holding out hope that this really won’t be a big deal. Most disappointing is Gurren Lagann, though I was really hoping for a PPD thinpack, and I hate that NHK will be left incomplete.
I really wish it was April 1st right now and I could write this off as a big joke.
