Wait, Claire Corlett?! As in, Sweetie Belle from My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic Claire Corlett?! She's working on an anime now?! But isn't this an LA dub? Isn't Claire in Canada? WHOOOOOOOAAAAA.

Also Veronica Taylor's playing a lead role in an anime again. Sweet!

I'm really glad to see crunchyroll getting more and more serious with doing dubs for their shows. I hope they can keep it up even more in the future.

That's a pretty all-star cast for High School Prodigies. Is this the first time Chris Hackney has played the lead character in an anime? Now he's gone from being the Prince of Faerghus to the Japanese Prime Minister.

Claire Corlett is new to me, but seeing Colleen, Veronica Taylor, and Sarah Williams as main characters in a new anime is pretty nice.

They are. They are even producing foreign dubs(which is helping a lot in some regions like Latin America,which was lacking in dubbed anime outside of Netflix stuff lately)

Also, I still wish Crunchy would dub Yuru Camp and Place Further Than The Universe some time.

He was Basara in Testament of Sister New Devil.

I am sure they will dub them, but I am more interested on disc releases.

I'm glad to see Crunchyroll making more simuldubs and it's great to see Colleen and Veronica in more shows. I hope they'll also dub the Bookworm show. I also second they need to dub Laid Back Camp and Placed Promised and they also need to dub Given.

He was Basara in Testament of Sister New Devil.

You know, if Funi had dubbed ToSND, I would be surprised if they didn't get Josh Grelle to voice Basara. That is, given that he is basically their go-to guy for harems. However, Austin Tindle, Eric Vale, and Justin Briner have also occasionally been the main guys in harems.

Yeah, that's indeed Claire Corlett. According to her website, she's living in L.A. now so it adds up

I guess I should have been more specific. I'm mainly referring to english dubs and how far behind they have usually been from when the show aired. It seems like they are finally starting to improve on that front now which is good. We need more dubs faster and not months or years after the show aired.
