Nagisa Momoe takes center stage as the lead! Also, Sayaka Miki gets another shot at being a magical girl!

Odd that Mami's hanging out on the sidelines as a teacher, though. spoiler[Maybe she doesn't want to lose her head again.]

What's more is that we have newer VA to join the ever-fluctuating dubbing VA family.

Yes!!! They cast a competent actress for Karin!! I hated her Japanese voice, as it grated on my ears, but I like Sarah Williams, so I'm confident she'll do a great job. I am REALLY worried about Itsuki, though. I really hope they do her justice.

It's funny, as this was the cast I imagined:
Yuna: Michelle Creber
Togo: Andrea Libman
Fu: Tabitha St. Germain
Itsuki: Claire Corlett
Karin: Madeleine Peters

Oh well. This cast seems solid, and I can't wait to watch the dub! Very Happy

Ah, Tabitha St. Germain...
It's been ages since I've heard from her in the initial season of Shakugan no Shana...

it would have been even better if they voiced each character with their respective madoka character, which one leave one character voiceless...brb... laughing.

Wow! That's... a really, really good cast.

I've really liked Xanthe Huynh ever since I first heard her as Ui in K-ON so it makes me super glad that she's getting all these lead roles. Not to mention, unlike her other lead roles, this is the real deal. She's not playing second fiddle while the rest of the cast gets involved in all the real conflict like in Blood Lad or Madoka. She is Yuki Yuna. The title girl, the hero, the undisputed MC. Can't argue about the rest of the cast either.

I can't wait to hear it for myself. Apparently Terui really enjoyed it so for now I'll just take her word for it.

*Also it's Xanthe Huynh. Not Hyunh.

And while she didn't get to do much in it her voice sounded good in Sword Art Online as Sachi.

It'll be great hearing more from Erica Mendez too, I've loved her Ryuko in Kill la Kill.

however no one have even heard from her since that season as well as the Roberta's Blood Trail OVA for Black Lagoon.

its highly possible that she have retired from VA which is ashame cause she would have done well as Fu or Yuna.

I know it's IMDB but it gives you an idea. My Little Pony and a load of other American shows.

But that price tag for four episodes. Yea it has some nice extras but $90 US dollars is really extreme. I cant see anyone buy this except for hardcore fans.

Oh, a cast of rookie/up and coming VA's, interesting. The only one I've heard is Xanthe, but I liked her Ui (plus my anime club's former president has a friend who is friends with Xanthe, so thats cool). A shame I can't afford to buy the blu rays though.
