"Ghastly Prince Enma Burning Up"?

That trailer really doesn't convey how insane and fanservicy that series is.

Oooo, I like Totori's English dub voice. Has anyone figured out who did her? And also it looks like the in-game CG models looked incredibly improved from Atelier Rorona; it's not all super-deformed anymore.

I've heard good things about Kimi ni Todoke. My only concern is I know the series is ongoing. Does anyone know if the anime leaves off at a good place? I'm always nervous starting an incomplete series. Sometimes they end in a solid spot and sometimes they leave me frustrated because nothing is resolved.

I hope NIS' entry into shojo anime goes well.

@ here-and-faraway: I'm a huge Kimi ni Todoke fan, so I guess anything I have to say needs to be taken with a grain of salt, but I felt the first season of KnT ended at a reasonably satisfying place and the second season very much so. Be warned, it is a very slow burn series with respect to the relationship between the two leads and some people - even those who like the show - found that frustrating.

Yikes. I really don't like 'Ghastly Prince Enma', but whatever. I enjoyed the show (particularly the 70s throwback humor and style) so I'll be purchasing this. Will be my first NIS America show to own. I hope they've fixed out whatever video issues plagued their first few releases.

After recently buying & watching BVUSA's releases of Demon Prince Enma, i'll definitely be looking forward to NISA's release of Dororon Enma-kun Meeramera when that's announced. Hopefully it'll be in a combo pack since it's currently being released on both DVD & Blu-ray in Japan & hopefully they fix the subtitle issues that are on their Blu-ray releases of Katanagatari & Arakawa Under The Bridge.

The first season is a bit abrupt but the second leaves off on a very good place.


I'm still complaining on the lack of a dub for it but I'm glad it'll be available.

If you have played Rorona with Japanese voices, then listening to the English voice-over is pretty painful, even if it's just the trailer. To me it didn't sound horrible, it just didn't seem to fit at all. To each his own. Personally I found myself laughing much more and having a better time playing with the Japanese dub when playing Rorona.

I guess Enma-kun will work because they're not dubbing it, and it wasn't likely expensive. Because that show had a rather low viewership, and Go Nagai is pretty niche in America.

I understand why there is no dub for Emma-kun. Some anime just won't dub well, but Kimi ni Todoke? It is a shame that there is no dub. Kimi ni Todoke would've made a great dub! I will still buy it, but I am disappointed that there is no dub to go with it. I do hope they widen the font a bit, the one on the trailer is just a bit too thin.
