| This is so awesome, hold on, gotta set up my hammock first and get my pillows and blankets in order, and my favorite sipping drink. Most relaxing DVD boxset ever. |

| Well I must say I am happy to finally being able to get my hands on the anime series soon. I was turned onto the manga by a friend and it quickly became one of my favorites in record time. I do wish we would be getting a dub with it, along with Emma, but beggars can't be choosers as they say. So I'll enjoy Aria anyway I can get it. |

Who would want the voices butchered by the dub? (I <3 the original cast too much). No dub is no reason to complain...saves us money too  |

You make such silly assumptions. |

It can be silly for a lot of anime, but Aria is one where the voices really can't be well replicated. I've never heard a good moe dub, American voice actresses just can't high that pitch and remain cute sounding. Maybe for Akira it'd be fine, but I don't like the idea of "PROHIBITED" replaced kinshi. Doesn't flow well. |

If you meant I was assuming there'd be a dub...I was actually just responding to the previous poster who said they wished for one  |

| All of the Aria shows and OVAs are great and I'm glad it is finally coming to the States. On the issue of a dub I'm glad it is not being dubbed, I prefer dubbed anime in general, but not thin time. Not do to the voices but do to the fact that the show will not be a hit or sell overly well. I am hoping that if sub only of small market titles sell well, we will continue to see small market titles brought here. |

Some people find the less high-pitched and more realistic voices from dubs of "moe" anime to be a lot more tolerable than the Japanese voices. Depends on the person really. |
