Didn't even know they were dubbing this. Maybe I'll give it another try in English. It couldn't keep my attention tbh.

Wow, another forgotten reverse harem series getting a dub by Sentai Filmworks with the same names as more or less every other dub they've made. Then again, if I ever watch this I'm probably going to watch it with the dub anyway just like I do with most of these sorts of shows. It's not like I intend to take it seriously in the first place. The awkward, stilted and honorific laden dialogue is just another part of the experience.

It was just badly done. Apparently Felicita had a personality in the game, but the series turned her into a wet blanket and surrounded her with dull dishwater, with just the occasional morsel thrown out to keep people coming back until it's too late.

Chuck Huber? Great performer, very funny, usually Funiamtion, I wouldn't even care to guess if he could save this show. But it's nice to know Pet Girl wasn't dubbed for this.

Quote:
The franchise originated in HuneX (VitaminX Addiction) and Comfort Soft's adventure game that has sold over 50,000 copies for female players.


Interesting assumption but, you know, all because such and such is, yeah, it doesn't mean, yeah...

Anyway, the further assumption is that this series is for the female anime fans out there? Makes me feel sorry for them, honestly it does...

Chuck Huber? In a Sentai dub? And I thought Tia Ballard being in Little Busters was weird. Shocked

I guess times are tough these days, so they're taking work at any studio they can. Even if it involves driving 8 hours from Dallas to Houston to do it. Neutral

I dont know, his profile on Wikipedia says otherwise. I'm more inclined to believe that Swasey just asked if he wanted to be in this show and Huber said "sure, why not"

I think it's more like times are really good they are getting extra money on the side. Actually it's 3 hours and 30 minutes depending on which route you take.

Except it only takes about half that time to get there.

Unless that's counted as round-trip.

My mistake. As you can no doubt tell, I'm not actually from Texas. Embarassed

I think I got the 8 hours number from Emily Neves on one of the Guilty Crown commentaries. She mentioned something about it being worth her and Andrew making the trip, but they might have been talking about the round trip. Either that or I just wasn't paying that good attention, which, considering it WAS Guilty Crown, is understandable. Razz
