If this is going to be Anime Strike exclusive you can kiss any chance of it getting a decent release goodbye. Amazon's service is garbage.

Kengo Kawanishi (Aldnoah.Zero's Kisaki Matsuribi) as Kensaku Han

Huh?

I've said it before and I'll say it again, but ANN's references can be really brow-raising. Kawanishi Kengo is Mikazuki in Gundam: IBO and Rei in Sangatsu no Lion. Why was Aldnoah.Zero chosen? I can't even remember who that character is without looking him up! (Actually I still don't remember who that character is even after Googling.....)

EDIT: Typo'd Mika's name.

This is an NBCUniversal title meaning that Funimation will for sure get first dibs on licensing it and most likely sharing it with CR. But I have to ask, does Funi still have that deal with NBC?

Same with Nakamura Yuuichi. He's had a number of lead/main roles, even recently, why did they choose a character only Fairy Tail fans would know?

This season's Urara Meirocho is also an NBCUniversal's property, yet neither Funi nor Crunchyroll got streaming right for it. So....

Well, Fairy Tail continues to be big in the U.S., I believe, so I'll let them slide on that one. Terashima I maybe would've put Otoya from Utapri instead. But Kawanishi? Come on! Totally Mikazuki or Rei!

Seriously, Amazon is a joke for this. I like them for the "Onihei" streaming but this overall licensing strategy is horrid.
