I sure wish there was some variety in the anime Sentai acquires. I mean does it always have to be moe, fan service, or echii type shows?

Well I'm sure not everyone hated both those anime but I'm sure the reason why some even want a eng dub included is the higher chance that a Bluray release would accompany it also. |

Nice, I was waiting for Sentai to license Amagami SS, I knew they would. But why MM!? To me that is a bad choice to try to sell to an American audience, but I guess MB did release Kanokon, and dubbed for that matter. So I guess there's a chance the contreversal shows will do good here. I wonder how Kanokon's selling anyways, obviously not too well, as they scrapped the single volume release after 1 volume, and came out with the full season set. But, why did they have to do the OVAs separately?

Am I weird in thinking that streaming numbers are those willing to pay for a dubbed DVD might be mutually exclusive to a degree? |

I can tell you, I was one of the idiots who were duped in to buying volume 1, you might think they didn't sell well, and volume 1 didn't sell well, but they were selling the complete collection at the cons earlier this year before it was actually released, and they sold out quickly at each con, I had preordered mine, so I got it before megacon, and since rightstuff is selling the complete collection for 17.99USD, they have been selling well enough to go out of stock there at least 2 times that I have noticed. and if it wasn't selling, then I don't think they would have decided to release the OVAs after that But thinking about it, maybe MB pulled the wool over our eyes, because when rightstuf originally posted the kanokon complete set on their site for preorder, it listed that it had the OVAs and token episodes, maybe they decided to spit the release up in to 2 releases instead of 1, and if you notice, they are charging more for just the 2 OVAS and the token shorts. adding the retail price for both, you get a total of 59.97USD, which is the going retail rate of a 12 to 13 episode series with extras, and possibly an OVA, and rightstufs price of both is, 40.48USD, so if anything, MB pulled a great stunt to get up to buy a show, by splitting it up in to two releases, and making us think it was a cheap release...

Man, today was a disappointing day. Not only did I miss the Rapture, I went 0 for 3 on new licenses, with these two and Funi's Zombiewhatever.
What is this I don't even? I am constantly befuddled went people complain about Sentai not dubbing things. It's like if you leadoff man reaches base on a drag bunt and you complain that he didn't hit a home run. One, leave the home run hitting to your clean up man, Funi. If these two shows would have been home runs, then Funi would have grabbed them. Two, if Sentai will turn a profit with a dub THEY WILL DUB IT. Sentai is much smarter than it's former incarnation. They run the numbers and look at the margins, and they know if a dub is a good investment. And it most cases, it's not. tl;dr version: Leave Sentai alone!
As someone who has the Minami girls as his current desktop background, I would like to second that request. |

Highschool of the Dead, Angel Beats, and Clannad would disagree with that statement. I don't think that "Funi gets first dibs" thing holds up anymore now that S23 is getting their legs back under them. |

Bandai is the clean up hitter. You don't get much better than Bandais top voice actors, like Johnny Yong Bosch, Yuri Lowenthal and Michelle Ruff |

sigh.. I could care less for dubs on shows with JP characters.. I just wish Sentai/S23 would release Blurays for sub-only shows for once, like NISA is starting to do...

Considering that Sentai has released series subtitled only in the past, I imagine that both series be only be released subtitle only as well. Considering the genre, it's possible they could be dubbed, but I don't think they will simply because of the cost of dubbing both series.
Key mentioned that both series "likely" wont be dubbed and be released subtitle only, so there is a huge chance of that happening. Sentai probably realizes to make money, they must first spend money. However, spending too much can indeed cause trouble, so they likely will only dub series that seem profitable and maybe even popular. Even though I am a English Dub fan myself, even I realize the costs of English dubs. It's not very cheap, but it all depends on the actor I suppose. Other factors are involved as well, but seeing as I am not a English dub actor, I am not really sure of all the factors myself. |
