I guess this must have gotten more viewership than expected if they are going back to dub it, especially considering I've seen it on more than a few "Worst of 2024" lists.

Did not see Mikaela as Vicius coming, but curious to see how she portrays her.

If I had a nickel for every time Dani Chambers voiced a down bad busty blonde in a fantasy anime, I'd have two nickels which isn't a lot but strange it happened twice. Actually she's voicing elf female leads in two backlog dubs.

The entire cast is like a huge mix of A-list and newer names thrown together randomly.

And yet Pseudo Harem remains undubbed...

Damn it, Failure Frame, I thought I was free of you! Now I have to go back and watch some of the dub!

This show will get a German dub as well. The show was okay as it followed the manga (which I am reading) but the CGI killed it in a very bad way for me.

Crunchyroll should do more backlogs english dub for the popular anime like Skip & Loafer, Bocchi The Rock, Fuuto P.I, Pseudo Harem, Brave Bang Bravern etc.

Yay I really liked this anime. I hope there will be a second season soon, can't wait to see Vicius face when see realizes everything that is going on.

I really hope The New Gate gets dubbed also.

Despite its poor qualitative ratings, Failure Frame was actually the third most popular new title of the Summer 2024 season according to CR rankings, behind only Wistoria and Alya and well ahead of other titles which got dubbed more quickly. It's actually a bit surprising that it took this long to get dubbed.

Other series in the same popularity range as TNG (like The Strongest Magician in the Demon Lord's Army Was a Human) have gotten dubbed, so it's not out of the question.

All the titles you mention here except Bravern do have dubs already. (And the latter not having one isn't a surprise. As beloved as that title was here at ANN, it was not popular in general; both CR and TAN popularity rankings are very low.)

I feel like Toei might be holding that back.

Anime like Bocchi the rock and Skip & loafer do have dubs but only in other language like LATAM Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, as for bocchi it also have French dub

Hey all, I just checked CR and not only is the Ep1 dub up, all episodes are dubbed and available already! Seems they have been busy...Sort of wondered when I saw an ad for FF with the dub a few days ago.
