Ooh, how exciting!
These are almost all shows that I enjoyed the 1st episode of but didn't have the motivation to continue with. A good english dub almost always ropes me back in! Even better that there are multiple language options.

Jujutsu Kaisen has me extremely hype but I hope Burn the Witch happens eventually. Yes I know it's a 60 minute OVA but it's still a new title exclusive to Crunchyroll and BTW was pretty popular (I mean it's the newest piece of major Bleach content in years especially anime wise) So I refuse to believe they wouldn't dub it

Ah I always imagined Gojo with a deep voice though in my mind I kept hearing Chris Sabat.

Kaiji Tang is a good pick.

I can't say I ever imagined I'd hear Marco Diaz in an actual anime, but it actually happened.

Oh hey, Zeno Robinson's first lead role!

As for which recording studio is dubbing which series, I think Jujutsu Kaisen is a Studiopolis dub and a Million Lives is done at Bang Zoom! Studios given that Zeno hasn't done anything with Studiopolis. I also think Tonikawa could also be Bang Zoom! seeing that Zach Aguilar hasn't done anything with Studiopolis yet unless he says it's recorded at Studiopolis. Not sure which studio is doing Noblesse but my guess is Bang Zoom! cause other than God of High School (which he did at Studiopolis), Dorohedero (recorded at SDI Media/Spliced Bread), and Saint Seiya: Lost Canvas (recorded at VSI Los Angeles) the majority of Sean Chiplock's VO work is primarily at Bang Zoom!

The easiest thing to determine if it's a Studiopolis or Bang Zoom! production is on the voice actors they utilize and who's in charge of the dub. If it's a Studiopolis dub they normally utilize voice actors that Bang Zoom! doesn't use in their dubs (both non-union and especially Union) such as Nicolas Roye, Aaron LaPlante, Colleen O'Shaughnessey, Christopher Swindle, Veronica Taylor, among others, and the end credits list Jamie Simone, Suzy Goldish, and Ryan Johnston being involved in the production.

If the dub is done at Bang Zoom! normally it has Mami Okada's name listed in the credits, along with Jalen K. Cassell (who does ADR Scripting on the majority of the Bang Zoom! titles) and it's either ADR directed by Tony Oliver, Erica Mendez, Chris Cason, Alex Von David, David Vincent, Steve Cannon or whoever is ADR directing the series. Plus, you got voice actors that primarily only work at Bang Zoom! and either haven't done or don't frequently work with Studiopolis such as David Vincent, Karen Strassman, Mela Lee, Marc Diraison, Joe J. Thomas, Chris Jai Alex, Imari Williams, Rachael Lillis, Frank Todaro, Armen Taylor, Jason Marnocha, Brad Venable, John Snyder, Bill Rogers, Zach Aguilar, Ben Lepley, Ben Pronsky, Jake Eberle, Ezra Weisz, Chris Cason and Julia McIlvaine (until her debut in the Monster Girl Doctor dub).

It's actually Adam McArthur's FIRST official anime role since he mentioned he's an anime fan especially the series My Hero Academia which he wishes to be in the dub someday according to an interview, also this is Anne Yatco's FIRST anime dub recording outside of SDI Media/Spliced Bread.

Regarding the four listed above, not really. Sure, they haven't been in any Studiopolis works recently, but they've all done work with the studio, even if it's only been limited to Bleach.

Regardless of it, the majority of them don't work as often in the Studiopolis dubs (which is interesting cause the studio tends to use veteran voice actors over newcomers for their anime dubs) and just prefer working at Bang Zoom! (Mainly David Vincent, Mela Lee, Karen Strassman and Marc Diraison). Also, I don't think Mela Lee was ever involved in the Bleach dub regardless of what most people say about it as the ONLY Studiopolis anime dub she's been in was Saint Tail, even Tony Oliver hasn't been in any anime dubs recorded outside of Bang Zoom! (given that he's one of the primary ADR Directors at the studio and why I haven't seen him done any other anime VO work) as the only non Bang Zoom! dubs have been his work through Bleach and Naruto for Studiopolis and voicing Lupin at whichever studio is doing the series and the CG film.

Lastly, you don't see the likes of Veronica Taylor and Nicolas Roye appear in ANY of the Bang Zoom! dubs whatsoever.
