CR and Sony working together? Maybe this is a good sign for Funiroll.

Aniplex of America releasing a dub with a Canadian cast?
 That's definitely different.
spoiler[If I told you that I wound up predicting this with a dream English dub cast for Oreimo, you probably wouldn't believe me.] |

This was way before the CR x Funi partnership even started and they're only working together because CR co-produce Kiznaiver. Edit:Also AoA is owned by Sony Music, Funi is owned by Sony Pictures TV. |

Unfortunately, I doubt this will be more than a one-off. Kiznaiver was an Aniplex Japan production, but Crunchyroll were on the production committee. They handled the English dub, not AoA. I say it'll probably be a one-off because post FuniRoll, almost every show CR's been on the production committee of has received a Funimation "simuldub." |

It’s a shame CR being on the Production comittee couldn’t bring the price lower than $10 an episode.

Once again, a title I want to buy is released by Aniplex at an unreasonable price. I've said this before elsewhere: I spend thousands a year on anime and manga, so I'm certainly doing my part to support the industry. And I always by Collector/Limited editions. But there's no way I'm supporting Aniplex at those ridiculously high prices. The bonus content they provide does not justify the cost, in my opinion. Such a damn shame too, because they have a lot of titles that I want (Aldnoah Zero, Gurren Lagann, Sword Art, Kill la Kill - just to name a few).

Odly Lucas Gilbertsons ANN page says that he retired this year from voice acting, despite being in 2 Anime dubs this year. Also happy to see that lately we are getting more Canadian dubs. Gives some variety.

That’s a high price for only 12 episodes especially on a show that isn’t particularly good.

Someone, somewhere, loves it enough for that. The only Aniplex releases I've ever bought were both seasons of Valvrave at that price per season, and those were sub-only, because I'm that one person that loves Valvrave that much. Will do anything for my glasses boy and his ~5 minutes total of screentime. |

I liked what the show was trying to do, but by the end the spoiler[love triangles became more important than the story itself.] I will probably give the show a re-watch before I make a decision, but it will definitely be at the bottom of the list. This seems like a mid-tier release for Aniplex on a scale of Sword Art Online/Garden of Sinners at the top, Anthem of the Heart/Monogatari Second Season in the middle, and Oreshura/Nanana at the bottom. These ratings have nothing to do with the quality of the shows themeselves, but rather with release schedule, quality of the release format/presentation of the material, and cost.
I don't expect $700 set for Kiznaiver, or individual limited editions at four-per-season, one-shot-sub-only and no art box, or plastic case no-extra zombie. At the same time, I still haven't picked up Erased yet. Dammit, Aniplex. |

I'm just glad to see them give something that wasn't a massive hit, a physical release. Too many of their shows get totally ignored by them because they can't sell them at Fate or Madoka prices.

I'm a little iffy on Ocean dubs but their later dubs have been more solid so I'll give it a chance.

But I thought people were saying it wouldn't get dubbed because it isn't popular in Japan. Actually people were saying this wouldn't get released at all. Ha, yeah right. For an anime this popular in the West, it would've been a stupid decision not to release at all.

I saw the announcement on the CR website and was very disappointed when they only included Eng subs for this release. Maybe they just didn't put it on the website, maybe they'll make another release for Spanish-speaking people, but the lack of Spanish subs for this release is very annoying to me.
AoA sometimes include Spanish subs in their releases, and I usually don't mind no Spanish subs, but for some reason I felt very annoyed when they announced this BD without Spanish subs. A very honest question: is it hard or expensive or time-consuming to include Spanish subs in the shows when they already subbed the show when originally streaming? Does anyone know about this? Or do they just don't care about that? |
