"Ah! My Goddess" DVD vol.1
Contains:Episode 1~3 Release date:2005/04/22 Initial release includes: Belldandy Box(Box to hold 3 DVDs) Item code:BCBA-2183 Region code:2(Japan) Release by:Kodansha • TBS • Bandai Visual MSRP: 6000¥ I think this settles the entire argument of having to wait long. A late April R2 release puts a similar R1 release pretty close, maybe even this year. The artbox will be a really nice LE goodie, too. Truthfully, I'm a little disappointed because I'll miss my weekly AMG TV fix and a major plot turn was coming up. But I know that if I really must have it, there'll be another 5-6 groups that will spring up to take over simply to "fight The Man". And thus the entire fansubbers-bad/fansubbers-good argument can continue to turn like the rock of ages and crush us all. I really want that Belldandy artbox.

Production companies don't own their actors, and very few are in exlusive contracts. So long as the scheduling and $$$ works out, they can bring in a previous cast.
The last Media Blasters DVD I got used a number of well known Bandai and Geneon VA's. |

I hope so. I wanted Geneon since they would get Animaze again (and hopefully Wendee Lee to play Mara!  )
The OAV cast was marginal to bad. Bell was nice and sweet but nothing special, and Urd was just okay with so-so acting and a voice that didn't really fit the character. Keiichi and Skuld were ear-grating. It would be torture to sit through an entire TV series with those two voices. I did like Pamela Weidner's role as Yoriko in You're Under Arrest, but her really bad voice added to the charm and wackiness of that show and that dub. Not so here. There was nothing good about Scott Simpson's Keiichi. Why would you want to hear someone with a bad voice yelling all the time? With the Movie cast, Tony Oliver's Keiichi was one of the best anime performances I've heard to date. His acting was not constantly over-the-top or emotionless. It was the kind of acting we all pray for, and his voice fit the character to boot. I wouldn't have wanted Skuld to be turned into Tenchi Muyo's Sasami  but I enjoyed her nevertheless. The rest of the cast and voice directing was "animazing," as usual.

Seriously now and seeing as MB has announced that "they will try" to get the original VA's, maybe you could pass Scott, and Juliet's e-mail address over to MB. Every little bit helps.

That wasn't Juliet Cesario, it was Jessica Calvello. |

AND Media Blasters released Invader Zim on DVD, that cult cartoon that Nickelodeon cancelled for being too full of black humor, and one of my favorite American shows.

I don't care who licenses Ah! My Goddess, since I can watch the anime in raw Japanese. I'm just glad it got licensed sooner rather than later.
