Exactly my point-I refuse to pay $14 to see subbed only anime. No dub-no watch. |
Well don't complain when you don't get quality theatrical releases of anime. Support them getting shown, and you might get more.

I will support the movies at cinemas that get dubbed. Honestly I don’t even know what Violet Evergarden is about but being sub only doesn’t make me even care.

I’m old enough to remember when you wanted to watch anime movies you either rent Manga dubs from Blockbuster and nine times out of ten Record Town would only sell the dub VHS for like $24. So it was a rare experience if you got to see subbed anime back in those days. Most likely this is a license issue and since Netflix controls the license for the dub, Funimation probably doesn’t have the rights to the dub, just like Netflix had to make their own dub of Saiki K. And this is the sequel to a recent Kyoto Animation TV series which was burned down in an arson attack last year and your tone seems unnecessarily dismissive.

Exciting news! If this gets released near me, I'll definitely go see it. And I'm super happy that its gonna be subbed. Unlike some in this thread, I'm sub or go home.

While I hadn't seen Violet Evergarden myself yet, I'm glad that the movie will be airing in the US for people that want to see it. It does stink that it's going to be sub-only - which, if I was wanting to see this movie, would be a deal-breaker for me in theaters due to my husband refusing/unable to really pay attention to subtitles - but hopefully that won't deter people too much from trying to see it if they are really big fans of the series. The one thing I do kinda hope they'll do in the credits is add some sort of dedication or in memorial to those that had died in the KyoAni arson, although I'm not sure if Funi will have the ability/rights to do that.

As long as I don't have to drive to drive 5+ hours to see it, I'll do what I can to make it to this screening. Someone on Reddit says Funi's theatrical releases have at times been super limited. I'd like to support this release and Kyoani as much as I can.

Aha, at last we have word! I hope this gets released fairly widely, because I absolutely want to see and support this one.
