Thrilled to see this news~! Hope Haikyuu!! gets a quality dub but even if it's not my personal taste I'm snatching up the seasons once they're re-released.

This is great news I loved Tanaka-kun, Sakamoto, and Haikyuu!!. I'm not surprised that Haikyuu!! is getting a dub its feels like its more popular in the west than Kuroko's Basketball was which sadly still remains unlicensed. I hope Sentai will at least get that one eventually even if it is a subbed only release

I don't think so. |
Me neither. How would they handle the yuri subtext? Of the shows I recognize in this list, none of them have yuri content like Flip Flappers does. Yes, it's subtle, except for the negligee scene, but it's certainly there.

Yes, Squid Girlie 2 !! It's gotta be CMC at minimum, but here's hoping for everyone. I really enjoyed the K-ON cast in different roles & the others (Takeru, Kiyomi), too.

Okay, think, think... Dave Matranga could make a solid Tobio Kageyama. And... Clint Bickham as Hinata? OOH! Chris Patton as Toru Oikawa! Yeah, that would be gold! |
I haven't seen it, but that ginger kid on the front just screams Greg Ayres to me, or is that to obvious? They should get Vic Mignogna for someone, as it looks like his type of thing.

So it's entirely possible they could do the same with Squid Girl. |
Or they could just recast everyone and dub in-house like they did for Rozen Maiden Zuruckspulen.

That's true, but in that case, I think they would probably dub both seasons with a new cast, so there would be continuity as they did with Appleseed (though that was a movie.) In the case of Rozen Maiden, it wasnt a sequel season. It was more of a remake, similar to FMA:B. While watching the other series was helpful, it wasn't required, so changes in cast wouldn't be as startling, and continuity isn't as important.
It wouldn't make sense to release season 1 with one cast, and then release season two of Squid Girl with a completely different cast. In this case, it's a direct sequel series, so continuity is more important.
Not to mention, there is the fact that some of the Squid Girl VA's have recently been in Houston. So I'd say there's an extremely good chance that even if they are doing a new dub in house, they are at least trying to get some of the main cast back.

I LOVE YOU SENTAI! So happy that Squid Girl season 2 will be dubbed! Just extra cherries on top if you can get most of the cast back!

Maybe the viewing data on Crunchyroll was better than I thought, but this show is certainly a niche taste. Japanese sales so far have averaged only 800 discs per release, and the show was pretty much ignored by the vast bulk of the anime viewing audience in the West. |
Flip Flappers certainly had its supporters! While I feel the show never atoned for its arcane storytelling, for which it now seems to have been punished, there was just enough with which to keep a limited audience's attention. If Sentai can reach the viewers who are partial to the magical girl genre and had fewer qualms with the series than me, this gamble will be worth their while.

i had lost some love for Sentai since over the last few years their dub release began to dwindle so badly ...but so glad they are coming back with a vengeance now ...Dub away Sentai ..and i love your 2 cour (out of the gate ) releases ... just wish they had a mid grade no-frills chipboard box LE release as part of their strategy
