I stand corrected then. 
Here's hoping we don't have to wait 3 years for a home video release like with InuYasha Final Act. |

A dub seemed kind of obvious with this one. I hope they manage to get it on tv. As far as voice actors go if Blum is used I hope he is the voice of Lunatic instead of Kotetsu. His voice is a little too weak to be Kotetsu.

Imagine if they can find a spot for Kevin Conroy!

I think the name Tiger and Barnaby could work, assuming they air it on TV, because if this got put on American TV it would be an instant hit.
Except for one episode in the whole thing, kids could watch it without facing the issue of censorship. The only problem would be if they edited that episode, would it have the same impact? As soon as I see this though on dvd, its an instant buy for me. |

lol Same. I figured with how geared this show is towards Western audience appeal it stood as good a chance as anything. |

I'm honestly disappointed Funimation isn't dubbing this. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a giant Funimation fanboy or anything(Okay...I am) and I like Viz, but when I saw Kotetsu I instantly pictured Brandon Potter.
I have no other voices in mind. My problem with Steve Blum is that he's either too serious (Strait Jacket) or too silly (Gurren Lagann). I also just don't see his voice working as Kotetsu. I'll just wait and see if Viz finds somebody interesting. Troy Baker's voice is kind of low, as is Travis Willingham Barnaby, could be JYB, but honestly...again? I kind of want someone else. But if it is him, I can accept it, for it will work. I kind of wouldn't mind hearing Kate Higgins as Blue Rose. Michelle Ruff wouldn't be bad either. Laura Bailey make a fantastic Dragon Kid. Monica Rial is a good Actress, but her voice is too high for Dragon Kid Yuri Lowenthal as Origami Cyclone would be great. I'm honestly surprised that voice didn't come to my mind. OH MY GOD!! Andrew Love as Sky High, YES! A thousand times Yes! I'm kind of annoyed, because I'm almost positive it won't happen, and now you've gotten my hopes up. 
Rock Bison is where I could see Travis Willingham. He has the right voice for it. Troy Baker is who I was thinking as Lunatic. Crispan Freeman would do a good job too though. Kirk Thorton as maverick is fine. As is Luci Christian as Agnes. |

Re: the title, I don't know why people want it changed. Those who would avoid it just because of the "Bunny" in the title would probably avoid it after hearing Kotetsu call Barnaby "Bunny" in the story - and you can't work around that because it's a plot point. Plus, the title appears in the story as well ("Tiger and Bunny, over and out").
If they do promotion right people won't have misconceptions about the series, Bunny or no Bunny. |

Bunny is funny. I don't think the title should be changed at all.
As for casting, I am a Troy Baker fan. I think he could do a number of roles for this show, but my guess is that he would be absolutely hilarious as Fire Emblem. (Remember him?) |

Hey, I can dream can't I? The list I posted is obviously just that, a dream team of people I'd like in those roles. Naturally, I know some only do union work (Freeman) and some seem to only do stuff for Sentai and Section23 (Love). But those are my choices, and I'm entitled to them...dammit! 
Shoot, now I feel really bad for not mentioning Fire Emblem! Okay, but I do have some voices picked out for him as well. My choices are Chris Patton or Ethan Murray. Both of which can easily sound effeminate, as well as goofy. |

Since a number of people have listed suggestions for main characters' voice actors, I thought I might list some suggestions for a few supporting characters.
Kaede: Melissa Fahn Ben Jackson: Beau Billingslea Agnes Joubert: Mary Elizabeth-McGlynn or Cindy Robinson Jake Martinez: Bryan Massey Kriem: Karen Strassman Mr. Legend: Jamieson K. Price Samantha Taylor: Barbara Goodson |

Somehow,I'm not surprised that "Tiger & Bunny" are going to get an English language dub. There are,of course,a couple of anime that I wish would get an English language dub. One is an obscure anime called "Sci-Fi Harry." It's about a teenage boy with telekinetic powers. It's set in America and I'd wish someone would bring that to this country.
Another obscure anime I wish was brought here was "Legendz." It's also set in America. New York,to be precise. It's a "Pokemon"-type series that I wish someone would bring here. It sounds like an interesting show. I wish they'd get the lead out and bring it here already. I'd like to see it. |

Here's my speculation for VAs for Tiger and Bunny:
Wild Tiger: Steve Kramer or Steve Blum Barnaby Brooks Jr: Johnny Yong Bosch or Vic Mignogna Blue Rose: Michelle Ruff Sky High: Quentin Flynn Fire Emblem: Troy Baker or Greg Eagles Dragon Kid: Laura Bailey Rock Bison: Jamieson Price Origami Cyclone: Michael Sinterniklaas or Yuri Lowenthall Lunatic: Doug Erholtz Jake Martinez: Crispin Freeman Agnes: Mary Elizabeth McGlynn |

Alright, I can't take this anymore - you realize it's "Completely unnecessary and excessive" to use all three forms of emphasis punctuation every time you use a title. Just "quotes" or just italics are all that's necessary - not combined, and underlining is just plain weird. Somebody had to say it at some point. |
