Having now almost completed their second full year in the Australian anime industry, Hanabee Entertainment can no longer be considered newcomers to the market.

Siren Visual is a company that is all about niche anime releases, including a wealth of titles that they have exclusively brought to Australia. In that regard they have walked away with more "Australian Anime Release of the Year" awards on The Otaku's Study than any other publisher.

Madman Entertainment have managed to solidify themselves once again as the major mainstream anime publisher in the country, with a plethora of anime releases across these past 12 months, in addition to several theatrical screenings and launching Australia's largest video-on-demand service AnimeLab.
