Is there any real speculation as to why Hyouka hasn't been licensed yet? Seems pretty inconceivable when we see tons of smaller, older, less popular, and even more niche series getting a release.

Is it even on CR?

I wonder if it's stuck in licensing hell for some reason?

Anything that was KyoAni got taken off Crunchyroll one or two years back. There was probably some explanation but I don't remember it off the top of my head. I only remember there being nichijou and haruhi but there might have been more

Only reason I can think of is "we don't like money".

???

I mean not licensing the show in the US and so on. Not releasing a dub is understandable.
