Honto no Jibun US Release
So, according to Hello! C-ute (someone added this info to ThePPN Wiki, which is where I first heard about this, then I spent about a half-hour searching online for more info), Honto no Jibun is being released in the US in February.
BUT.
I'm really skeptical about this. Apparently it's to promote the US release of the Shugo Chara anime. However...I can't find ANY INFORMATION AT ALL about Shugo Chara even being licensed in the first place. Even if it was licensed now, the anime wouldn't air for a while- so why would the theme song be released in February?
The only thing I can find that says ANYTHING about the anime being in the US is the English Wikipedia page, which categorizes the Shugo Chara article as "Cartoon Network" and "2008 Television Debuts", but it doesn't have any info about the actual licensing. The Cartoon Network site never mentions it, and a google search doesn't turn up an English official site or anything.
Also, I can't find anything official mentioning a US release of Honto no Jibun...
SO, is this all a total rumor? I want this to be true, haha. XD Except maybe the actual licensing of the anime, that can wait until it finishes in Japan, cause otherwise I'm worried the sub group will drop the series. D:
EDIT: I heard that this was apparently announced in this month's issue of Newtype USA, and I checked on the Newtype website and they do have a Buono article in the music section of the issue! I don't have access to the issue, there's no way I can get to a bookstore until the weekend (damn boarding school), BUT I'm calling up my friend who bought the issue when we went to Tokyo Kid last weekend. Hopefully she'll be home, I'll get her to check for me~

I have a copy of the issue and all they talk about is their favorite anime character and they hope to do a tour in the future.
