Same day dub is something reserved for the big series, so people really seem to be banking on this being popular. Which is weird because it never did that well in Jump and barely got passed 100 chapters.

They’re probably hoping the “from the author of Kuroko’s Basketball” selling point carries more weight in the American anime-sphere.

I gave this episode a go on CR and oh yeah.. I pretty much liked this.. and the
Music on top of it… I was hoping for a English Dub and now there is one it’s just does not seem to be on CR… if it does not come on CR as English Dub then I am fine switching to Netflix! Let’s go! Going to watch this again tonight when I get home!

It is weird that the dub is only on Netflix and Amazon when the series is on so many streaming services.

Not true… this has happen on a lot of anime where it’s on many platforms but one or 2 has English Dub on it… I can’t remember exact titles but there are a few.

Having previously read the manga, I will say that this adaptation absolutely nailed the vibe with its audio presentation. I'm looking forward to how they handle more of the cast once they're introduced.

I was surprised yesterday when an account that posts news about dubs mention that its Neutral Spanish dub was already on Netflix, so I gave it a watch and I liked it, felt like a sort of mixture between Sakamoto Days and Detective Conan. I wasn't aware the manga was drawn by Kuroko no Basket's creator. I did really like how the animation looked.
As for its Neutral Spanish dub, it's apparently done by Remow, but sadly they didn't credit the dub voice cast, which is pretty rare these days on anime availbale on Netflix and other streaming services (except for Crunchyroll). I and some others managed to indentify some voices, but there're some that we couldn't

I gave the first episode a look and thought it was solid but a bit overstuffed. Probably will go ahead and watch some more of it and see if it levels out a bit.

Honestly I don’t think I can agree with the overstuffed part… the pace was steady to the point it maintained the main plot of the story without detachments and properly utilized the what it could fit into one episode… but that’s just me on the matter as I had watch it twice now both subs and dub.

I never said it was rare. I just found it weird how the dub is limited to select streaming services, that's all.

Looks like The English Dub is on Crunchyroll now.. Perfect.. gives me an incentive to lower or Cancel my Netflix Sub because they raising the prices again..
