It'd be interesting if Jun Fukuyama was there with Johnny Yong Bosch with Karen Strassman (the respective English/Japanese voices for Geass' Lelouch and Kallen)

Naruto fans will know Ryoka as the Japanese Ino.

*Sat here in the UK all alone*

That's quite a fast turn-around for a dub though.

Ryu Shoji, if it's any consolation, even though I live closer to AX than you do, I am not financially set to go there.

That was really fast, but I'm happy about it! Hope we get a cast list soon! Also, I agree it should be on Toonami if they don't have to censor it too much.

Wait how did they already get cleared to do the dub this fast? Shocked

Don't these things take around a year after it stops airing in japan?
Bah whatever. I'm glad they didn't go with a sub only release, I probably would have lost what respect i had for AOA Laughing

Don't forget that Space Dandy had a dub and sub simultaneously.

They aired Akira, and are currently airing Attack on Titan and Black Lagoon, and on top of that, I've seen [as] get away with much worse in its original productions. I say it'll be fine.

And as for the main news...

Was a dub announced before this? This seems like a sudden announcement for one lol

This seems like something that wont be easy to dub. I wonder what kinda approach they'll take with it. Im hoping it'll be good. I'm gonna have to get a ticket for this Smile

If they can dub Gurren Lagann, they can dub this.

They do if you're an american licensor. With AoA being a branch of Aniplex surely they can do things quicker, and if it's financially viable they seemingly will speed up the process.

I had wished they went for a sub-only release as it would be kinder on my wallet, but this show has proven to be a hit with americans so dubbing will make them more money (otherwise they probably wouldn't dub it).

Guess this confirms that the Q4 release of the first part of KLK by Anime Limited will be bilangual.
