Sounds like a solid dub so far! Loving the behind the scenes clip, Searcy's face was spot on! I've never seen ABP so this is probably going to be an instant buy.

Molly Searcy is one of the names I always look for in a Sentai dub so my interest in this show has gone from "eventually" to "immediately". There'll be some fun line readings, yeah?

I was hoping that Sento be voiced by Maggie Flecknoe, but Ms. Searcy sounds good. I look forward to owning the show on BD and listening to the complete dub.

My favorite casting decision so far. Her interpretation of the character should be fun!

I hope Chris Patton and Luci Christian get in there somewhere, so i can have more FMP connections. Plus they happen to be really good VAs.

There are a few things actually:

1) The Amagi series creator Shoji Gatou also created Full Metal Panic, and was adapted into an anime by both he and Yasuhiro Takemoto at Kyoto Animation, both of which helmed the FMP sequels done by KyoAni.

2) Moffle, the mascot of the theme park, pretty much shares the exact same design of Bonta-kun, a theme park mascot in FMP Fumoffu

3) Shoji Gatou has stated that Sento Isuzu is basically a female verison of FMP's Sousuke, at least in personality.

Also, FMP was dubbed by ADV, who of course eventually dissolved into Sentai.

CHRIST!! well.... that explains her obsessions with guns and her persona is dead set serious at times. not to mention of moffle's way too much similarity of bota. either way, its highly unlikely those two will be in the english dub cast. would cause too much complications

if sentai had made patton and christian in the dub cast LET ALONE THE LEAD VAs FOR THE SERIES, you better believe that there would be those withing the otaku community that would be saying that gatou had a hand in amagi brilliant park's dub casting. just like when the dub casting for arslan was announced, people was saying the exact same thing that arakawa had a hand in its dub cast even though its not the cast. besides considering that there is the new one piece movie as well as the dubbing of the new world arc, its unlikely that christian would be able to even do any voice work for this series.
