nice, a good cast and a good director, but who's the script writer? Really hope it's not Tatum

I figured Monica Rial would get Ginko since both her and the Japanese VA also did Himari in Penguindrum.
Third time's a charm for a solid English dub for an Ikuhara title, right? (not counting Sailor Moon)
Good luck on who ever is doing the script for this! Last edited by darkchibi07 on Thu Mar 12, 2015 2:42 pm; edited 2 times in total |

Seems like a solid cast. It's good to see Monica Rial gets a chance to be in an Ikuhara show when the rest of the cast aren't lackluster, and of course Colleen Clinkenbeard, Jamie Marchi, and J Michael Tatum are always welcomed additions.
Gao gao, Shabadadoo, and Kuma Shock. |

Good cast, though I'm kinda surprised Marchi is Lulu. Sounds more like someone Rial would voice, but I can see it. And Tatum as Life Sexy is a nice choice. Heck the Japanese voice already sounds like him.

Kinda disagree since 2 of them are already in Rolling Girls. Even Monica is back again? At least its not a blonde or red hair, then I would suspect a curse under Monica  .
Some twitter user keeps pointing out that he sees Jamie Marchi as the confirmed scriptwriter. Though I'm taking it with a grain of salt unless I'm proven wrong or correct. |

Well, you knew that was coming. So I guess we're hear an official release announcement over the summer.

A great cast without a doubt, but for some reason I am not sure all the voices will be adequate fits for the characters. I want to be proven wrong and have the dub by my preferred form to rewatch Yuri Kuma Arashi.
And I suspected all along that J. Michael Tatum was going to voice the "sexy" guy. Great choice Funimation!
Recently? You either have been living under a rock for the past 5 years or have never heard a Sentai dub. |

Yeah, I suppose it is mostly on my mind because of the recent string of broadcast dub announcements. |

Casting the most visible, openly gay voice actor in the west as a personification of the Male Gaze and straight-guy lesbian fetishism? Perfect. I love it.
I just hope we can get a reasonably faithful dub script for an Ikuhara show for once. Can't be worse than Utena's at least. |

Awesome cast. I think there's even a seiyuu that I don't recall ever seeing in the past, so that's an excellent bonus. On top of that, it's great that Colleen Clinkenbeard is back- it's been ages since I've heard from her as Erza Scarlet from Fairy Tail.
Ah, yes...The English version of Revolutionary Girl Utena...Man, those first 13 episodes of it were a serious train wreck.

Glad Josh Grelle is in this. I think he'd make a good Life Beauty. I was really hoping for a preview though so I hope that's coming soon. I also don't really like Monica as Ginko, but oh well. I think this will be a solid dub though.
