I think a problem with the mentioning of "British actor/actress" is that many people might have the default view of thinking a British actor/actress that lives in the U.K. There are plenty of British expats here that can do the job.

Pretty please with a cherry on top? If you get UK actors, it'll be that much easier to convince everyone who loves Downton Abbey to watch it! |

I would also like to know why I'm not getting emails from Rightstuf. I check spam often so its not on my end. Edit: I got an email today from Rightstuf asking me since I back Aria to back Emma. Hmm, I am getting emails, I looked last email I got From Rightstuf about backing Aria was last November it was thanking me for being a backer and offered me a 5% off coupon.

When I made those tweets, I should said "help fund this project".

While the kickstarter will indeed be funded, I'm less sure about the season 2 goal. Will there be a separate campaign for that if it doesn't reach its goal.

Mr Kleckner, since you're reading these comments, can you guys at Nozomi improve your video compression?
For instance, the Utena TV series looks amazing, but there's 4 episodes on a BD-50, which is a waste of space. I'm not saying to lower the bitrates and such, but you could've easily fit 2 more episodes on and not run into any issues. In fact, the disc count would lower and you'd spend less money. Plus, the disc art wasn't that good, so it didn't make up for it. The Utena movie is poorly encoded, and takes up only about 25GB of space on a 50GB disc. Why? That's using only half of the given space! (Plus, the Ikuhara commentary track was lossless when it didn't need to be- eating up bitrate) The film is visually more demanding than the TV series, so there is no reason it should have a lower bitrate (26 mbps) than the TV series (32 mbps). Aria is what makes me ask you here- I don't own it, but I've seen a scan of the disc and the file sizes, and they're way too low. You guys put 5 episodes on a BD-25 and the bitrates are too low. 12 mbps is horribly low. Plus, the dub is in 5.1? It's an upmix from the original stereo, right? So, why not just keep it as a stereo track and take that extra bitrate (4608 kbps) and add that to the video? Your Gundam releases are among the best on the market, but I think if you outsourced your work to MediaOCD (Justin Sevakis) and/or Fidelity in Motion (David Mackenzie), you could get superior work and would most likely end up printing less discs due to superior compression. You guys aren't bad at all, you're nowhere near as bad as those plebs at FUNimation, but I think with some better compressionists (or possibly outsourcing to one of the groups listed above), you can be even better. I'm saying this because I want to see Nozomi grow bigger and be able to achieve bigger and better things. Thanks. |

well if their using the same aria cast for emma, then you might change your mind. but yea!!! i mean nozumi released this series in 2008!!! it would have been a perfect chance for them to get most if not all of the cast for hellsing ultimate since some of them do have proper UK accents and it would have been a choice that every dub fan would back!!!
what does that mean!? your saying that if its successful , does it mean that right stuff/nozumi will be giving other english dub for its other licensed series via kickstarter!? and if so, which ones might be given one!? for me personally i hope its at least some of the more popular gundam titles of the 90's like turn A gundam , victory gundam and gundam zeta and current ones like reconguista in G, or at least LISTEN to the fanbase and give some of the other current G titles like build fighters & build fighters try & AGE proper dubs instead of plastering them with the atrocious crappy ass animax asia versions!!!! |

Great news in the most recent update on the Emma Kickstarter -- British actress Rhiannon Ross has joined the Headline Studio dub production team as an advisor! She is an accomplished actress and has trained at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art and Drama Centre London. Plus the Kickstarter is now fully funded and has entered stretch goal territory! YEAH!!!

I'm happy that "Emma:A Victorian Romance" is finally getting the English dub it rightfully deserves. I wholeheartedly applaud this and I look forward to watching this soon. I've often heard this was a good show,but I didn't want to watch it without an English dub. It's long overdue and I hope to see this when it comes out.
