In May 2007 it was announced that their content would also be provided as video on demand by Internet startup ReelTime.com (worldwide except Japan).〔 As of 2002 Enoki licenses anime but sub-licenses its licenses to various distributors instead of distributing them directly. ''Anime News Network'' wrote that "They generally only license TV shows that they hope to also license to TV broadcasters such as Cartoon Network, ABC Family and Fox Kids."〔"(Enoki Films updates Licenses )." ''Anime News Network''. August 14, 2002. Retrieved on March 26, 2014.〕 Some of the anime productions that were listed on Enoki's website are under alternate names and may list characters under different names as well. In many cases, when sub-licensed to anime home video companies, the original titles and character names have been restored. Enoki's translations of episode titles and scenarios may also be different than what may be on the official release. If Enoki's series' had a separate movie or direct-to-video production, it is usually not licensed by Enoki, and the film or direct-to-video production may be licensed to a separate company than the series (as is the case with the ''Slayers'' movies and OVAs and the ''Utena'' movie). As of 2015, Enoki Films' North American division is not working anymore, since it bought its operations to an end in 2010. ==History== In 1975 Zen and Yoshi Enoki established Enoki Films Co., Ltd. in Tokyo. In 1986 the California office opened; soon afterwards Yoshi Enoki opened the American division.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Enoki Films」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
