  2. Madoka Magica was licensed by Aniplex, and Kimi ni Todoke was licensed by NIS America. No word on whether either will be available for legal streaming. Aniplex tends to do dubbing, and since this was wildly popular in Japan (smashing dvd sale records with Magical Girl power!) there will most likely be a dub since it is also almost as popular here.

    However, as Aniplex has stated they'll be getting their own legal streaming channel at niconico.com (this is the English version of a streaming site from Japan), so it's possible. At the very least, they have a number of titles from the Summer season that will be available for viewing.
