That’s right! To promote a new license, they sent me this sweet, sweet lollipop. Yeah, “Save Me! Lollipop!” Wait, isn’t the original title “Mamotte! Lollipop?” “Mamotte” translates to protect, not “save.” Maybe if the original was called “Tasukete! Lollipop!” Anyway, I guess “Save Me! Lollipop” is more catchy of a title than “Protect Me! Lollipop!”
There’s been some criticism of Funimation’s license choice recently. I guess if they have money for ludicrous marketing payola (in the form of lollipops) they have money for ludicrous licenses. If you’re curious as to what the text is on the letter they sent, it’s the same as what ANN got.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I have some lollipop to eat.

Aww… That’s not fair. You promised a Loli in the title, not a lollipop.
mmmmm…lollipop
Bait and switch…^^;
IS THAT EVEN LEGAL
Yea u had me tricked big time as well. Who gives a fiack about a freaking LOLIPOP damnit? Not non-Otaku even!!!
Just you wait Hung you’ll be getting a shatload of “WHERE CAN I DOWNLOAD THIS SERIES!!!” comments very soon
I don’t see any requests for downloading this series, yet. But wow, they actually send you candies, now that’s something to die for.
I do wonder how much Funimation racks in with each license, for all I care, they ought to fire whoever is in charge of licensing crap and hire someone in our community.
Im Excited :3
