I hope that Funimation does have more simuldub titles to announce, because I--like many others--am anxiously waiting to see if they are dubbing A Certain Magical Index Season Three Very Happy . I might also check out the second season of Senran Kagura, though.

Funimation tweeted this...

EDIT:
It seems like they followed up with another tweet saying they're not done with announcements. We'll see if they did pick up Index III.

Much, much better lineup than last season. Pretty much all I want to watch this season that's not Netflix or Amazon prime is getting a simuldub so that's pretty neat.

Ok, good. There have been a few times this year where a show premiered in Japan before the license announcement so it isn't so strange.

Once again the amount of simuldub titles outweighs the number of ADR Directors who're actually capable of putting out quality dubbing work and fitting casting choices on such a quick turn around status.That's always been the biggest flaw of the simuldub mentality since day one here's hoping that every ADR Director brings their A game to the table this time around.

Why you guys gotta keep us in suspense about Index III, FUNi?!

Still, the idea of the sub and dub of an anime airing at the same time is still kinda crazy to me. Both sub and dub fans will be able to converse about a new episode of an anime as it airs, and the fact that that can happen now for certain shows is crazy! And from the looks of things, they might be able to do that for the entire 12-episode run of SSSS.Gridman (which I've been calling "Quad-S Gridman", because who has the time to say the whole actual name out loud).

Wholeheartedly disagree with that assessment virtually every single simuldub has been quality since they started doing them.

Completely correct and as an additional note there are a few ADR Directors who do 2 shows at once in a season. It's really not that big of a deal.

Come on, Index III.

Though I won't be watching them, I hope Funimation can keep with their same day/week anime. If not, they should find way that won't result in a sudden pause in the middle of the season. Either way, I love Funimation for what they're doing. Very Happy

Radiant looks a show that'd be up my alley, so here's hoping the upcoming Funimation dub fixes his voice.

He sounds totally awful in the JP ver - teenage boys do NOT sound like that at all.

EDIT: ANN's encyclopedia seems to have listed Christopher Llewyn Ramirez as the voice of Seth. Assuming that this info is trustworthy, that seals the deal - I'm definitely watching the Radiant dub weekly.

EDIT 2: Director Caitlin Glass confirmed Chris as Seth. Yep, the dub is DEFINITELY going to overtake the original JP by a landslide. No doubt at all in my mind.
