Please let this post serve as a lesson to all: Literally, no matter what you do, people will always find some reason to complain. Anyway, I don't care for this show at all, but I'm sure many are preparing their "Told you so's", victory laps, and tearing their shirts and screaming bloody murder simply because of this cast reunion. Many fans are very happy, I'd assume. So good on Funi I guess. |

I haven't really liked Nagato Yuki-chan, but I gotta give credit where credit's due. Funimation's really been surpassing my expectations and then some with their broadcast dubs.

Alex Von David is involved according to Sabat, which hints that BZ is the recording studio but that hasn't been officially revealed yet. |

From what I understand, the dub for that show was actually done before the games came out, and it was delayed until recently. Basically, it sounds like Funimation did its own dub because they didn't know who they would even need at the time. The cast for Hyperdimension Neptunia, and Bayonetta were kept pretty much intact, as was the case for various former Geneon properties, so I don't think that being cheap was the problem.
True. The announcement on Funi's site lists Okratron 5000 as the official studio with Sabat as director. Although, I would guess that such is the case so it is clear who gets to make the bigger decisions. For the sake of practicality, I would guess that BZ is doing the actual recording since it would be rather difficult and costly, to have that many actors make the LA to Dallas trip. Some of them have made that trip while some haven't, but I have to think outsourcing is the easier method on this. Last edited by Greed1914 on Thu May 28, 2015 2:19 pm; edited 1 time in total |

If they got all these people that don't work for Funimation to do it, Johnny Yong Bosch HAS to be returning because he actually does Funimation stuff.
Either way I'm SUPER excited! |

I think Johnny will return as Itsuki. I mean he must be doing something very important, or must have a full schedule to not be able to reprise him. Todd and Johnny are swell friends, and I think Todd can persuade Johnny to reprise him and in return Todd will release one of Eyeshine's members from his basement

Interesting. The announcement on Funi's site lists Sabat as the director, but this makes much more sense, and fits with how prior outsourced dubs have worked. Plus, I'm inclined to think Sabat would know what his job actually is. Also, Todd has helped out at least once when it comes to recording a Funi show in LA. Carrie Savage had a handful of lines in Fairy Tail that weren't going to be worth traveling for, so Todd recorded her at his home studio and sent it to Tyler Walker. |

Didn't care for the Yuki Nagato series but wow way to go Funimation! So I guess they're cooperating with Bang Zoom or splitting it between Texas and LA? Interesting thought just because some of Funimation's own staff is on this and we have Alex Von David alongside. Ah I'm too much of a nerd for behind the scenes stuff even when I don't particularly care for the anime

Funimation does it again. Anyone surprised should not be. Funimation has tried to get as much cast back for shows like this. At times it not possible. Best examples: Slayers and Tenchi Muyo.

I find it ironic that in almost every topic where FUNimation licenses a new show that has an existing dub cast, there's *always* at least one guy who chirps in with the ridiculous claim that "FUNi never cares about getting the original cast back", when in reality the fact is their track record for doing so is better than almost everyone else.
Heck, even Aniplex and Sentai couldn't keep a consistent dub cast between the different Fate series. Saber has been voiced by no less than four different English actresses.

OMG YES. THANK YOU. Without the original cast honestly I wouldn't even have bothered with the dub for this one. Many thanks.

I hope Johnny Yong Bosch comes back for his role of Itsuki.

At the very least, Lucien Dodge, Erika Harlacher, Kaiji Tang, Sean Chiplock, and Erin Fitzgerald (and, by extension, Amanda Miller) had all been confirmed long before the game actually came out. Erin also openly expressed interest in working on the anime. |

Very happy to hear that they went with the original cast so far. I certainly wasn't expecting this to be a broadcast dub also.
