Its odd that Funimation didn't dub this film considering they are releasing it but instead they used the LA voice cast I would of preferred Funimation's voice actors but I'm sure the English Dub will at least be decent in the long run of everything.

It was already dubbed when FUNi licensed the film.

Oddly enough, I don't remember the promo trailers that were posted when this movie came out. And many of them are gone now. I'll have to wait for Funimation's trailers. I do remember wanting to see the movie, though, and I think I had it on my "to get" list somewhere.

Already pre-ordered, loved this movie in fansub, can't wait to finally own it and hear the dub too.

Movie to be released dub-only!

Source!

The extras are on both the DVD and Blu-ray versions.

The movie is only English and some of the extras are in Japanese.

... I wish you were joking but you aren't. Really sucks and my interest in the title is null.


I wish I'm. I checked with TRSI and was told that they were sent a note this morning. So this one looks to be EngDub only...

Sad that its (for some reason) a dub only release. Meh i'll still probably get it eventually, wasn't that high on my list to begin with and this has bumped it down a few notches, but yeah, looks/sounds like a fun film, look forward to watching it eventually.


But yeah, shame about the dub-only release though. Wonder if Funimation will comment as to why thats the case?

<sigh> Since I haven't seen the film, or trailers, or read any reviews, I wasn't in a big hurry to buy the film, but without the original audio, it's a definite no-buy. Maybe a future release will include it...
