==International distribution==
A number of titles that are produced by Kyoto Animation are distributed in North America such as [[Crunchyroll LLC]] (Funimation), [[ADV Films]], [[Sentai Filmworks]], [[Central Park Media]], [[Netflix]] and [[Bandai Visual|Bandai Entertainment]]. ''[[Kanon (video game)|Kanon]]'' and ''[[Air (video game)|Air]]'' were originally licensed by ADV Films but the licenses were transferred to Funimation in 2008;<ref name="Fun-license">{{cite web|url= http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2008-07-04/funimation-picks-up-over-30-former-ad-vision-titles|title=Funimation Picks Up Over 30 Former AD Vision Titles|publisher=[[Anime News Network]]|date=July 4, 2008|access-date=July 7, 2008| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20080707034228/http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2008-07-04/funimation-picks-up-over-30-former-ad-vision-titles| archive-date= 7 July 2008 | url-status= live}}</ref> whilist Bandai Entertainment previously distributed KyoAni titles such as ''[[Haruhi Suzumiya|The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya]]'', ''[[Lucky Star (manga)|Lucky Star]]'', ''[[K-On! (TV series)|K-On!]]'' and ''[[Nichijou]]''. However, Bandai Entertainment closed in 2013, and three of the four of its titles were transferred to Funimation while ''K-On!'' was moved to Sentai Filmworks where it dubbed the second season and a movie.<ref>{{cite web|title=Bandai Entertainment to Discontinue Home Video, Manga, Novel Sales|url=https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2012-08-31/bandai-entertainment-to-discontinue-home-video-manga-novel-sales|publisher=Anime News Network|access-date=August 31, 2012}}</ref> 

In Australia, where [[Crunchyroll Store Australia]] (previously known as Madman Anime) is based, they licensed a handful of KyoAni titles such as ''Clannad'', ''Hyouka'' and ''Love, Chunibyo & Other Delusions''.
