...You're joking, right? I'm a fan of ADV's actors and dubs, but the Princess Tutu dub has Fakir randomly saying he's going to "write a letter to the president" in a world with no president where the original Japanese track is silent. None of the fans I know have any clue why that's in there, my only guess is that Chris Patton was adlibbing a joke and it got accidentally left in. The Pretear dub also consistently mispronounces the main character's name (Himeno) as "Hee-MEE-no" instead of "Hee-meh-no" (although they got the same syllable pronounced right in Sasame's name).
Not to bash ADV's dubs but I think it's a stretch to say they "never make mistakes".

It's terrible that American voice actors feel there's a need to hide there identities. It makes me wonder if that detracts from the performance or potential since they could not list it in their resume or point it to other people as a proud example of their performance

I don't think its terrible, I think its funny, they were obviously trying to be artsy.
Morween. You'll notice I said "almost never" make mistakes. No ADR company is flawless. Every once in a while, an ADR dub will have mispronouced words, and line flubbs.
However, I doubt the garbled up conjuctions in Samurai Girls is unintenional. They likely were just trying to be absurd and funny, intenionally making engrish diolouge.
For example, you can say "I'd like to have a Fuji Apple" in enrgish you say "I'd like some Fuji Apple" or "Your dress looks very pretty" to "Your dress wears real nice."

Nobody answered my question?
I still didn't order the dvd now. So is these voice actors are the same ones from ADV or they only use alias?

Actually everyone has answered your question, and you stated the same thing twice. These are regular Texas VA's. They are simply using aliases.

It's nice to see that all the japanese extras appear to be on this release considering Daimao and Angel Beats were lacking. Hopefully Sentai will keep this trend.

I heard that until the main character's brother shows up, he is the only male character in this show. Does that extend to extras, like mooks and background characters too?

If any of you have the Bluray version, could you please check if this release is both region A and B? (Or if it's locked on just A?)
