Do you think that Other Worlds, a short anime feature by Shinkai, will also see a release on this DVD?

I also thought the English performances were just fine; I've watched it several times both ways and think the dub actually has a little more emotional appeal (although it's saddled with a lack of translation of on-screen text).

As for the script changes, I once did a line-by-line comparison between the subs and the dubs. Granted, the English script isn't as tight as it could be, but it isn't that far off. Virtually every scene retains the essential meaning of the original dialogue, and I'd rather have that in a dub than a literal translation which sounds awkward in English.

Darn. You beat me to it. That is exactly my position.

Sure, there were minor script changes, but the overflowing feelings of loneliness and sadness expressed were much better conveyed to me in english than in subs. Afterall, Hoshi no Koe is all about emotion.

But I disgress. I am so excited about the DVD release of Beyond the Clouds. And I really hope ADV does the dub and turns in another magnificient performance like they did with Voices.

I am sure it will if it is good (which is a pretty rhetorical question since Shinkai-san is AWESOME!). I wonder if this one will be finished within this next year. That would be cool.
