Would be excited for this if Animax wasn't a horrible company. Bring on college drop outs who had "Drama Club" written on their VA application forms. Also, get ready for reruns because Animax knows how to get their money's worth by playing the same anime episode 10 times a day. The schedule for the whole day will probably be this and marathons of Bleach and Naruto episodes from centuries ago.

If only Animax got around to improving their lineup and their English seiyuu talent pool, they would get more viewers tuning in. They can only go so far with only subpar dubbing and excessive reruns keeping them afloat.

Pretty much the only new Animax dubs are for kids' franchises like LBX or Pretty Rhythm. All the other new shows are subtitled-only.

If they have to rerun old dubs, I wish they'd show Twin Spica, which is one of their better efforts, but I suspect the license expired.

If this is any consolation, at least you got to watch Pretty Rhythm in English whereas the show went entirely unnoticed in other countries outside of Asia.

I wonder what the English version of LBX is like, anyhow?

Ah, Twin Spica...I have interest in watching that show. I wish Animax offered simpler access for people outside of Asia that wants to watch their shows...but that's just myself living in a pipe dream.
