Was crossing my fingers for Monica, but Caitlynn doesn't sound bad.

I'm surprised they either bothered dubbing it, Sentai are strange. Marketable shows like Space Brothers which they could get a network to air it in the US, nope. Some strange niche show, which would probably sell just as well subbed, gets a dub.

While I was prepared to eat my hat had I been incorrect, I guessed that it was Caitlynn French from the Sora clip.
Can't say I care enough about this topic to form a strong opinion (And even if I did there isn't a whole lot I can take from a 45 second clip) but she seems fine. I liked her as Masturika in Maria Holic so I already know she can handle deadpan characters just fine.
But if they marketed Space Brothers right then I could totally see it becoming popular seeing as it's a hugely enjoyable series with adult protagonists and almost zero anime tropes. But 99 episodes is a bit of risk for a show that isn't really all that popular. Plus considering Sentai saw fit to leave the honorifics alone in Kids on the Slope but cut them out in an otaku centric incest harem series like Nakaimo I can't help but wonder whether a dub for the series by them would be suitable for broadcasting on TV. |

Wow, French? From the last clip I thought for sure it was Emily Neves. Meh, I'll take it. Her Matsurika was pretty deadpan funny.

I thought Caitlynn sounded great as Leviathan from Leviathan: The Last Defense, so I think she'll fit as Shiro quite well.

Erm sorry to bust your bubble here, but No Game, No Life is a very popular commodity. It might seem strange and niche, but it is very very popular. The light novel, manga, and now anime are released here. The anime is not only being dubbed, but is even released in a very expensive collectors edition that Sentai doesn't normally do. There is a LOT more talk about this than Space Brothers. We can wish it were different, but Space Brothers isn't the huge marketing juggernaut you seem to think it is. |
