 HOLY SH*T!!! I never would've thought they'd dub this! Now I'm totally invested. 
I heard this anime was good, but for whatever reason I didn't want to watch in subbed. Also, I thought the anime was a kinda cliche that lead to no romantic hook ups. |

Oh man, even if there are no romantic hook ups, you are missing out on one of the funniest shows in the recent seasons. It is really good. |

I hope it's good. 
Lately, I've been slowly weaning myself away from high school anime because they're all the same in regards to very little romantic elements. Especially when the anime is suppose to be a romance. I'll just pretend this isn't and try to enjoy it. High school anime are a bore to me now.

Nozaki-kun is nothing like any "high school series" you've seen, most likely.
It goes out of its way to never do what you would actually expect to happen. |

Starting to really love Scott Gibbs he was amazing in NGNL and can't wait to hear him/watch the anime once the LE arrives
I know I said it in the past but I really LOVE these types of dub trailers where you get to see the VA act, really shows the effort many of them put into it and them enjoying it and adds a really neat human part to it

Speaking of NGNL, this scene of Mikorin reminds me of when Stephanie Dola (Dora?) would fantasize about Sora acting like this

I really like that smarmy take on Mikorin. This looks like it might be a fun dub. I'm hoping Terry Doty was cast as Seo. She's been in a few Sentai roles lately, and has that kind of brash personality.

Is it wrong to hope that this video is on the discs somewhere? Because I got a real kick out of Gibbs' facial expressions. XDDD

Hearing his playboy mode was nice, but I wanted to hear what he sounds like as a flustered Mikorin too.

Watching the cam on Gibbs was hilarious, seeing his face change just like Mikorin's

Agreed. I didn't think this had a chance at a dub so I'm thrilled! Now I can get my brother to watch it. |

Mikoriiiin! I've been waiting for the English cast announcements for this anime ever since Sentai announced it was getting a dub!
So far Scott Gibbs sounds great as Mikorin. I love how they made him a little more cheesy. Plus those facial expressions he makes while recording~ Though I agree with another user, I would have liked to see him as flustered Mikorin in the trailer. I can't wait for the rest of the cast! Personally I think the hardest character to predict a dub voice for would be Nozaki. I'm putting my bets on Matthew Mercer since he can have a pretty deep yet mellow voice. Keith Silverstein is another possibility. Or Sentai can pull a rug under us and get another new guy. |

>Matthew Mercer >Keith Silverstein >Sentai Yeah, not gonna happen unless they fire Scott Gibbs and start recasting. David Wald or Andrew Love would be more logical choices. J. Michael Tatum could work too if Sentai's willing to import talent from Funimation, which is more likely than you'd think (see also: Jad Saxton in Log Horizon, Tia Ballard in Little Busters). |

Mercer is in California. Can't see him doing a Sentai dub, especially as the male lead.

Ah, sorry- up until now I always thought Sentai was centered in California and associated with Bang Zoom. I didn't realize it was a Texas-centered company like Funimation. A quick Google search would have fixed that for me. My bad guys If that's the case- then I have some hope they will get some Funi voice actors. With that said- Mercer did Levi for Funimation and they even got Johnny Yong Bosch to do some shows as a main lead. So I say Mercer is still on my list for possible leads, though much much slimmer given that it's Sentai. |
