Watch the guys in the marketing department try to squeeze the word "twilight" somewhere into the title.

ethan murray? who...? Vic... I love Vic but I get enough Vic from Funi. Mela... I would've preferred Kari Wahlgren(saya in blood+ hehe) or Stephanie Sheh. but hey, this still sounds good, YAY 4 vampire knight dub.

Always wanted to see Vampire Knight, so it will also be nice to hear names attatched to the dub. Notable, since this will be Mignogna's first major BZ! role, but it'll also be interesting to hear more of Lee outside of her nasty Hiyori role on BLEACH (which she does great on, even in the quieter moments). Murray, from the roles I've heard him in, seems like an odd choice looking at the character, but I never seen the show before, so I can't saying anything else beyond that.

Hehehe, gotta make that "hook" somehow. On the other hand, the comment on the acting in the PR does feel like they are making at least a connection to the franchise in spirit. Not that I can fault them or anything...

Nice to see Bang Zoom still getting work. Will Vic will be recording at home or commuting I wonder?

I'm glad we finally got news on the cast but....not so happy about Vic playing Zero. Sure he's experienced but I just cannot picture it. At all.

Well, I hope for the best when the rest of the cast is announced later.

Drat, and Zero was my favorite character too. Crying or Very sad

What a pity. Well, at least now I don't have to worry about having enough money to buy a copy...

...I am a dub fan, but Zero is so horribly miscast I will not buy this now. Crying or Very sad

I doubt it and I know they wouldn't.
If it was Twilight vs. Vampire Knight, it would be Vampire Knight.

Wow, I haven't heard of the other two VAs but Vic seems a strange choice for Zero in my mind. Oh well, good thing I watch the sub anyway.

.....

Can't say I was expecting those three gettin' cast in the lead roles...

But I ain't gonna knock the dub before I try it.

Wow...most of the posts are Vic haters...I admit I can't picture him as Zero, but then I couldn't picture Heath Ledger as the Joker, based on the other stuff he'd been in...I'm taking a wait and see stance on this...If nothing else, it's Netflix-able...

I'm a big fan of Vic and I get sick of people going "Ew, it's Vic!" because all they judge him on is FMA and he's been in over 100 shows, but they keep thinking "Ed, Ed, Ed, I did not like his Ed" and don't think about the fact that A. People do like Vic for more than just Ed, and B. People buy anime because of both the English and the Japanese dub and there are people who do like his acting.

They might actually put Vampire Knight on TV because it has recognizable actors and I'm probably going to blind buy this because I like Vic.

I agree with that :]

If you think that the Vampire Knight Dub is gonna suck, you don't even know since we haven't seen it yet. I think people need to give it a shot before they can say that
