The show has a censored and uncensored version! It is very cute, fun and sexy and has a different angle then a lot of of ecchi shows these days, takin a bit more of a sexual education route/exploring sexuality route from the start. We don't feel it fits the Kitty Label because it isn't Hentai. We have some exciting kitty need coming up soon though!

FWIW, Media Blasters https://twitter.com/Media_Blasters is following the Okusama ga Seitokaichou! (My Wife is the Student Council President) JP Twitter account https://twitter.com/anime_okusama.

The series does fit what MB has been releasing recently. It's still streaming on Crunchyroll: http://www.crunchyroll.com/my-wife-i...ncil-president.

At this point surely all we can expect from MB is Ecchi or Hentai titles right? They pretty much said as much a whiles back if I remember correctly.

I'd like to see something different though.

Knowing MB, it's probably for something full of ecchi and fanservice. For recent titles that fit the bill of something they might go after, I'm thinking about something like Isuca or Testament of Sister New Devil. But of course, seeing that I know squat about hentai being released that there's a good chance that's what they are getting.

Also, judging from the trailer that's a part of the Tweet it would appear as if it's being dubbed.

Interesting. While it's nothing outside the usual ecchi pattern with the stuff he acquires and dubs in recent times, it is noteworthy that it's a short series this time and a decent one for what it is. Though I'm not sure if it's one I would care about owning. I might give the dub a listen if they stream it on Crunchyroll like they did LvB.

Re: Media Blasters Acquires My Wife is the Student Council President

Glad to see it will be coming out here, as it was a fun show. My preference would be a Blu-ray if I were going to buy it, so hopefully that materializes. It would also have to be the uncensored version, though since it's a short format show they can probably fit both versions on disc without much issue. I don't really think I'd want to support a DVD release for this show, especially if it were to arrive on a DVD-R. Nevertheless it will be interesting to see it dubbed at the very least. As others have said it does fit Media Blasters recent licensing preferences pretty well. I'll also be tuning in for the second season, and I hope they will look to put that one out as well.

Even if it isn't exactly a heavy hitter, it's nice to see Media Blasters grabbing more shows.

I have to disagree with this; they don't have the resources to do any show justice, and if you buy DVD you're getting a burned disc.

And I'll have to disagree with your disagreement.
I've bought several of Media Blasters' recent releases and they have thoroughly done justice to those series', in my opinion. The Ladies Versus Butlers Blu-ray in particular was a fantastic release for that series aside from them not getting the omake shorts, but that was out of their control to begin with and thus can't even be counted against them.

And on the topic of DVD-R discs being used... The fact of the matter is, despite the louder complaints about it around the web at places like this forum, it's of little to no issue to me and probably most other people purchasing anime. All of the discs I've gotten are still high quality, play perfectly well, and are authored as well as any normal DVD would be. Unless you personally are really particular about that kind of thing, technically, the type of disc it's on really shouldn't matter when they're well authored and of a suitable quality, which for the most part their releases have been as of late.

Media Blasters isn't nearly as "bad" as some people these days tend to claim. And that being said, for anyone to take issue with them simply for continuing their business by licensing new shows is simply an immature stance to take, I feel.

It is, in fact, nice to see them licensing more anime, and I hope to see them get even more series' as time goes on.

Re: Media Blasters Acquires My Wife is the Student Council President

That's a rather interesting pickup there by Media Blasters. I know that they go after fanservicey stuff, but I wasn't expecting them to go get this short. In any case, it's great that MB is getting stuff and at least they are doing not just sitting on stuff like they have been doing seemingly for years even if they are resorting to using DVD-Rs and other things that deliver a lower-than-desired quality product. Not to mention, they have their own dubbing studio in New Jersey when everybody is taking a pass on dubbing stuff that has just about zero marketability potential.

Found out that Crunchyroll is actually involved in the production of "My Wife is the Student Council President".

Hide Saida (斉田秀之), who is a producer of this anime, is also a Crunchyroll staff.

So I guess Crunchyroll probably sub-license Media Blasters to release season one. And it would be also why Media Blasters don't have plan to release season two yet.

This I agree with, especially since MB tends to license shows--Yosuga no Sora and My Wife Is the Student Council President, for example--that fall outside of the envelope of other US licensors. I can't see either Sentai or Funimation, for instance, licensing such shows as these, for numerous reasons, even though they have released some ecchi titles, and for such shows as these, I am glad Media Blasters is at work.
