Strike Witches fans get out your party hats. There are two bits of good news for this series.

1) Licensed for US Release
The only concerns surround the issue of censoring due to the open depiction of 12 and 14yr old boobies. However, many sources assure fans that the pure uncensored DVD versions will be released. Look forward to the boobalicious DVDs from Funimation in early 2010.

2) Season 2 Announced
Issues concerning Studio Gonzo's health lead many to believe that the series will be presented by a different studio this time around. Perhaps JC Staff or someone. However, considering that this series is the only thing that kept Gonzo from going under last year, it's a pretty sure bet that they'll hold onto it and maintain the same quality presentation as was shown in the first season. Expect Season 2 sometime later this year.

Time for some more good ol' fashioned WWII flying mecha-loli panty action!

Also, here's an interesting note: Strike Witches is Wholesome Family Entertainment

This outstanding endorsement of what some, including this site, have mistakenly branded nothing more than a drawn out and extremely well produced exercise in ogling loli pantsu and, in the DVD editions, quite a bit more, will surely be well received by struggling Gonzo.

With their new found credentials, they can now expect to join the ranks of other wholesome children’s anime, such as Kanokon.

We do not hear if they were using the ultra-wholesome DVD version as the basis for their screenings…
I <3 you Japan. lol
