Can this be true? I remember an earlier release of Slayers had a phase problem between the two channels, causing the voice and music and effects to be muted differently when piped through the mono bottleneck in my system at the time. So I would believe there is some difference between the two channels, even if there isn't much. |

Whoa, thanks S'more! Who knew in 2012 Bobobo-Bo Bo-Bobo would be back in print!
Now wouldn't it be amazing if Comedy Central would take a chance on anime by picking this and Excel Saga up...still highly unlikely, of course... |

Is it getting a new dub?

It hasn't been mentioned specifically, but I highly doubt it. They mentioned one of the reasons they bought it was because it had been run on TV. They will likely stick with that dub. |

The old CPM DVDs had those issues with sound for the Japanese audio. FUNi's DVDs have 6 or 7 episodes per disc with mono for English, stereo for Japanese (though IIRC, Season 3 also had stereo English? I could be wrong). Of course, Revolution/Evolution-R had 5.1 audio for English. I'm pretty sure these will be double-sided discs, but it's possible they'll cram 9 episodes onto each disc... unlikely though. The Lionsgate release for Speed Racer crammed 13 episodes onto each disc, and time compressed several episodes (as if the characters weren't talking so fast already). |

Well I'll be, this is something that I've been waiting to see but never did I think that this company would pick up the rights. It most certianly was because the dub was already completed but still I didn't see this coming.
Maybe the 2012 anime year can be salvaged after all. |

Why would it need a new dub? I prefer the dub that aired on Cartoon Network myself. |

So i guess we should expect to see the same treatment done with Galaxy Express 999. |

Well Galaxy Express is still a ways off. I'm sure quality control will be more thorough after this mishap.

I'm giving this a friendly little bump. More people need to know about this issue. I was planning on buying this box set myself, but now I know to wait until S'more has their stuff sorted out before I drop my cash on it. Even though I'm mainly a fan of the dub and would probably just watch it, I still believe in getting the FULL experience, particularly when the company putting the product out on sale specifically states both on their website listings and the packaging itself that it contains English subtitles. THAT my friend is false advertising.
Perhaps ANN should make this an official news article? If anyone could get in touch with the bigwigs at S'more and get an official response, it would be them. |

Lol, I don't know how PDFs you have to print out = subtitles.
EDIT: From their Facebook account: Offering our apoplogies....there was no intent to mis-lead the fans. There was a mis-communication internally and even though at least 10 people proofed the packaging, the fact the packaging incorrectly said 'sub-titled' was missed by everyone, incluiding byTOEI. As best as I understand, the series was only available in Japanese language or dubbed into English, it was never sub-titled. Galaxy Express 999 will only be available in Japense or sub-titlerd as they never did an English language version (according to TOEI) |
