Good on Sentai for making these dubs. Especially for Oda Nobuna.

As for Infinite Stratos, I'll wait for the blu rays for that one. It's too popular not to get blu-rays. Which is probably why they're pulling this, to max profits for the people who can't wait.

IS2 might just be getting a dvd release now because sentai are going to get the ova and then release it on bluray


They licensed the first season from Media Factory, which is why they were able to do bluray right away and include the soundtrack. Season 2 is from TBS, which always, at least for the past several months, have a hold back on bluray releases. I can't link it at the moment, but Sentai already confirmed on Twitter that a bluray will be coming out for it later.

IS 2 on DVD....I'll have to wait until it comes out on Blu-ray because I hate to double dip and I already have IS first season on the Blu-ray, so...

Diabolik Lovers getting dub doesn't make sense to me either but whatever. The dialogue was already bad in japanese, can't imagine how much worse the dub would make it.


They used the same voice actors from the games..so it makes sense for the japanese but the dub yeah...

I`m going to get sooo much hate for this, but I don`t care. Does noone understand that vampires CAN be sadistic? Or do people only think of vampires as like the ones in Twilight? I mean for fudge`s sake, I wonder what people would do if the games ever got released outside of Japan...the anime version treats Yui way more nicer than the games do, thats for sure.

But it does surprise me that it is getting a dub though.

It's better for anime series to have an official DVD-only release here than not an official release. Technically, Blu-Ray is a form of DVD.

Yes they can but when it's done for the entirety of the series giving you absouletly no reason to care for any of the douchebags is it really worth it? I'd think not.

If Diabolik Lovers gets a dub then why doesn't Uta no Prince sama?!

I never knew Diabolik Lovers was that popular....

@Felicity: I get what you mean as I've listened to all the CDs and have heard a bit about the game, but explaining these things is useless to North American fans since most of them on here are well... ^^;; boobs > d. they have a huge problem with maso heroine but not maso heroes who likes to be stepped on by girls. Razz

to have both, UtaPri and DL, w/c are popular for their original voice actor cast to be dubbed somehow feels insulting to me... I don't know. I wish they'd cancel it. I'm really disappointed that I even took the time to make an account on here just to rant. Just give us the DVD alone or better yet, translate the game without adding any voices.

Well I actually do care for some of those "douchebags." Anyways I've said it before and I'll say it again. Each one of the brothers (who almost became sisters, but scrapped the idea because the characters appeared too manly-looking.) are based off of the 7-deadly sins. How can you make an anime or game with the 7 deadly sins appears nice?

Nobuna getting a dub has made my day. Man, I'm getting that day one.

IS2 may be DVD only for now, but didn't they get the OVAs? If they released those with the Blu Ray I'm happy to wait for it.

It's nice to see that Oda Nabuna is getting a dub. If only that was a sign of more coming. That show really needs a 2nd season. Such a massive tease of an ending. Laughing

Oh, and I didn't realise the Chunibyo was getting a Collector's Edition release.

Maybe the upcoming The Seven Deadly Sins anime and 3DS game may show us how? Laughing

I have no interest in seeing Diabolik Lovers anytime soon, but I am looking forward to seeing Nobuna Oda and, particularly, Infinite Stratos 2, since I haven't watched Season 1 of that show yet.


Eh, season 1 was a perfectly average harem series, but season 2 really doubled down on the cheesecake episodes to the point where the plot was about two episodes long. I thoroughly regret watching all of season 2.
