| Funimation announced that it has acquired the Save Me! Lollipop (Mamotte! Lollipop) romantic comedy anime from the Japanese publisher Kodansha. The story centers around a girl named Nina who swallows a Crystal Pearl after mistaking it for a lollipop. Two sorcerers from another world sudden appear to claim the Crystal Pearl as part of a critical trial. The two vow to protect Nina from other competing sorcerors until one or the other can safely retrieve the jewel and win the trial. Director Noriyoshi Nakamura (Dragon Slayer, My Santa) adapted this anime from Michiyo Kikuta's Mamotte! Lollipop manga, which ran in Kodansha's Nakayoshi shōjo manga magazine. The anime aired 12 episodes in Japan in 2006. Funimation plans to release the series in one DVD set in late 2008.

I hope to see this as close to the original as possible, opening and ending intact. They changed it to SAVE ME!LOLLIPOP, since, thats what Mamotte means.. So, how 'bout them apples? |
| Yeah, I got the press release for this a while ago. They sent it with a large pink lollipop attached :D Tasty ^_^ |

| I mean... No one else posted this, so I did xD Now they wont have to worry.. If it is a dub, I hope it gets a time slot on Toonami, or somewhere they have anime (for the public) @_@ |
| UPDATE: The original release date, 12/23/08, has been changed to next year. The new release date for the 2 disc release Season Set of Save Me! Lollipop has been pushed to 02/24/09. On the upside, The trailer has been put onto the Funimation site, and can be seen right here. It showcases Nina and Ichii's voices. |
