It took a while, but I’m glad to see it finally coming in March. A relatively newish actor for Rito wasn’t what I was expecting, but the voice sounds fitting for his character and Bryn Apprill sounds good as Haruna. I’m curious to hear how Alexis Tipton will perform as Lala and Brittney Karbowski as Mikan just makes me smile. Looking forward to viewing this in English and I hope that Sentai can dub the other seasons as well as the OVAs pretty soon.

Bryn makes a fitting Haruna. I'll reserve judgment on Rito's voice until I hear more of the performance.

Nice to see that this is finally getting a dub. It originally came out during the period when Sentai was mostly just doing subtitled releases, so I'm glad to see that they are going back and revisiting some of those titles.

I dont normally check out Sentai dubs, but Alexis Tipton and Bryn Appril might change my mind on that one.

Interesting to see some Funimation-only Actors in there but I welcome it.

If it helps to finish the manga story faster, everything is good. I just hope i don't have to wait 5 years to read To Love Ru's ending.

Sentai confirmed on Twitter that they are "focused on season 1," so be sure to support the dub if you want them to continue.

Will they do trade-ins for people who already own it?

Funny thing is, I always imagined Funimation eventually picking up this series with Alexis Tipton dubbing as Lala and Karbowski as Mikan. The former obviously did not happen, but i'm kinda impressed with myself that I was right about the latter. If we get more seasons I predict Jad Saxton as Nana and Monica Rial as Momo.
