Well part 1 of the box set came out in December and it's been a while. When does Box Set 2 come out dubbed? Thanks

Whenever Viz's year-long circle-jerk comes to an end.

Yes, I'm very critical of their "business model" and "marketing strategies."

AKA, none. Anyways, this has already been like...asked a hundred times now.

Lolz, yeah, the word "none" didn't really fit there. But anyway, he means that it's probably not gonna come out ever.

At least it's starting back up for the final stretch on SyFy tonight.

It means their marketing strategy and business model is practically non-existent.

^Why continue with this thread when there's already a thread discussing Viz's lazyness.

Because Viz doesn't care one **** about their consumer base.

Look, no one knows why they haven't announced a release for Boxset 2 except for the people in charge of production and marketing at Viz. We can only speculate on their reasoning. Maybe Boxset 1 sold very badly and 90% of the product ended up being shipped back to Viz in shame. Maybe everyone else is right and Viz just hates you on a personal level. Laughing Maybe they're spooked by the recession and don't want to release anything that they don't think is a guaranteed success. Until Viz actually makes a statement on this issue one way or the other, we only have speculation to go on.

So, again, we won't find out until Viz says otherwise. All you can really do is check for updates and hope for a miracle to happen. Rolling Eyes

Considering this is VIZ, I am guessing never.

Again, read the above posts. NONE of us will know about when the second boxset will come out. We need to wait to for a statement from Viz about it.
