Well, hot damn! Never thought this would get dubbed. Very Happy

Loving the cast, too. Not bad at all.

I'd be a lot more excited if the price tag wasn't so high. Seems a bit much for a collection of shorts. Those episodes were, what, 5 minutes a piece?

Thats a fantastic cast! Quite a few high profile names. Vic Mignogna in a sentai dub? Love him but from my limited isn't this pretty rare for Sentai to get someone like him?

Can't wait to finally watch this once the bluray releases and hear the dub Anime smile

It's rare but not unheard of. He was in Dream Eater Merry and Coicent some years ago, and just recently reprised his role as Benawi for the Utawarerumono OVAs.

even though Vic is a big name and has been in both Funimation and Bang zoom dubs, he still has a history with the people at Sentai as his career started with ADV films, the one I'm really surprised to see is Jad Saxton, you'd think she would be out of Sentai's league since she's primarily a Funimation VA

it's not like she hasn't been in Sentai dubs before: Log Horizon and Maid-Sama.

This will be an instant buy. Good, fun comedies are hard to find nowadays.

i wish monica rial would just retire already. she's only good at one thing, cause she only has one voice. and thats as a nerd, cause she has a nasal voice. she ruined mitsuki, because all she can do is "rah rah rah"

You obviously haven't heard a lot of her voice acting. While she is better known for her higher pitched and more energetic characters, she has done several characters will deeper, lower key tones.

I'm surprised Monica Rial is voicing Yokoi. I was imagining that she would voice Gotou. Nonetheless, can't wait to watch the dub! Very Happy

Huh, well I wouldn't have expected a dub for this, but I guess the shorter run times helped keep costs down.
