So far I'm really enjoying the English dub. Everyone seems well-cast and playing the characters well and capturing the feel of the series properly.

I never thought I would hear Cherami Leigh as a Chuuni girl, but her Nakanaka sure is something. Also, Cristina Vee as Yamai.

It's cool they got a non-binary VA as Najimi.

Also I think this is probably the biggest female role Casey Mongillo has ever had.

I don't know why the weekly release was delayed by two weeks when the dub wasn't even included.

I've re-watching the show in Neutral Spanish and I was amazed that they gave the dubbing team a lot of freedom to adapt many jokes and use some slangwords.
Also, just like in the original Japanese version, Komi's voice actress in Neutral Spanish is the same as Kaguya from Kaguya-sama while Tadano has the same actor as Asta from Black Clover as well.

Its a pretty standard cast for such a title its not terribly interesting in the casting department but it will do.

Some castings are expected (Kyle as Tadano) but I think a lot of them are pretty interesting and cool.

Is it just me or Tadano's English voice sounds kinda forceful/weird (idk how to describe it) and kinda does not fit him?

I’m beyond ecstatic to announce you can hear me as ✨Shoko Komi✨ in ✨Komi Can’t Communicate✨ This role is incredibly special to me, as someone who grew up with severe social anxiety & worked hard to overcome it. You can check the dub out on Netflix now!

Davenport as Najimi is honestly perfect casting since the snark absolutely matches.

"Hear me" - ironically, this'd be the easiest MC voice acting job since Nezuko Laughing
