Why... would you pay $55-60 for 1-3 episodes?

Sorry, it just doesn't make sense and is just pure stupidity.


I wouldn't... I am just saying if I was going to buy something without dubs I would rather just import

Fantastic pick ups by Sentai and ADV. I'm looking forward to Ghost Hound with great excitement. Cool

Yeah... licensing titles people really wanted and bought is ****in up Anime. Right...

I guess you didn't like Clannad as much as you claimed. Dubs are more important than the anime and content that you supposedly watched, illegally. Rolling Eyes

I'm a little less happy at being asked to pay 60 bucks for half a season though. Maybe I'll wait for a sale.


You can pre-order it from TRSI for $44.99 right now.

It's three episodes a DVD for 7600yen. Given the quality I got, I consider the R2s worth the money I paid for them (nice extras, good video quality, etc). But that said, if someone really didn't want to buy ADV's version, you can get the R3 (Tawain) DVDs for much, much cheaper. But I suspect that ADV's version is the closest to what most buyers want, out of the three.

Still, what's important is buying and thereby sending money back to those who made the anime, right? The region of the DVD doesn't really matter.

I personally watched the first two eps of clannad in my anime club at college... the show was alright but not interesting enough for me to watch.

There are alot of shows like this for me, shows I wouldn't mind watching but just can't quite get into, those are the shows I watch in the background while surfing the web and what not. Since I am not a fluent speaker of Japanese I NEED and english dub, even a poor one to be able to do this. Thus atleast for me to purchace a show like Clannad I would need an english dub.

Viz has stated that they are going aren't going to dub many niche shows. Even with the DBZ money Funi won't be able to dub everything for long. If you like the show, you should buy it no matter what.

That is what subtitles are for.

I am getting sick and tired of Sentai Filmworks and them not releasing dubs. First Fist of the North Star and now Ghost Hound.

So you want them to lose money on a dub?

Hmmm, so they're not doing this through ADV, but of their own accord right? I guess they're entering their field as their own separate company??
Either way, Ghost Hound is awesome! One of the better shows of the past few years. Shame about no dub, though.

It took me five minutes to get used to subtitles. Although I am a fast reader though. Point is it isn't as difficult as most of you are claiming to watch subbed anime. 5-10 minutes tops to train your eyes.

Edit: If you aren't watching the show then what the hell are you doing?

Something like Fist of the North Star and possibly Ghost Hound is a high profile show they wouldn't lose money.

This has really got to be the most amusing reason for requiring a dub I've heard so far.

ADV will likely be handling the distribution and production just like it has with the previous Sentai Filmworks releases (Clannad, Princess Resurrection, etc).
