Holy shit, Dr Slump TV show for the first time available with a legal English translation, hope it's the whole show. Now give us the original Dragon Quest Dai!
Edit: Hmm press release says only 500 episodes total are being added. Since Dr Slump is nearly 250 episodes, Toriko like 150, Gegege no Kitaro 100, Slam Dunk 100, and One Piece nearly 1000 episodes, I wonder how this will be distributed.

The Saintia Sho anime is awful (READ THE MANGA), so that's nothing, but we're finally getting the Hades arc there too? Alright, hope it gets dubbed also by the same dub cast.

Does this mean Slam Dunk might get a better dub?

I thought the Saintia Sho was pretty good. |

I hope that Tubi eventually gets the 2007, 1996, 1985, 1971 and 1968 iterations of GeGeGe no Kitaro. Unlikely, of course, but maybe the 2007 and 1996 versions? This has to be the most rebooted franchise in anime history. Especially impressive when you consider that it's not just a one- or two-cours reboot each time but often close to, or more than, 100 episodes.
And I'm not even counting Hakaba Kitaro which was an awesome origin story for the franchise. |

Its garbage...poorly adapted and cheap animation and recycled visuals from SS: Omega...they should let the franchise die already |

Well... considering all SS shows haven't been made in-house after Omega, it's more or less dead. |

It really sucks compared to the manga version, trying to cram like 7 volumes into 10 episodes, also not counting the poor quality art and animation. It's the Saint Seiya anime equivalent of the animated 1978 Lord of the Rings movie. Oh no, Toei, don't actually outsource it to a good animation studio like Sunrise or AIC, outsource it to GONZO instead. |

Any chance some of these could get dubbed?

Yeah, it'd be pretty cool to see the older versions of GeGeGe no Kitaro on Tubi.
Why do find them unlikely, besides the fact that they have 100 or more episodes?
Maybe. We'll just have to wait and see. Last edited by OjaruFan2 on Wed Feb 24, 2021 5:49 pm; edited 1 time in total |

The franchise is thriving quite well in manga form with many ongoing series (and apparently, the original manga is getting re-released as a "Final Edition" with touched up visuals, dialogue, and such): http://kurumadapro.com/column/detail.php?id=92 A new batch of Next Dimension chapters is coming: It's a decent time for the franchise. The anime is finally getting some love in America thanks to Netflix, which is nice. I do hope these episodes eventually get dubbed, like the OG anime was. |

I feel I should point out that it doesn't clarify which Dr. Slump is coming to Tubi: the original 1981-1986 series, or the remake from 1997-1999.
Fun fact: The original Dr. Slump was replaced in its time slot by the original Dragon Ball. I'm told there's even a preview for the first episode of Dragon Ball that aired with the final episode of "Dr. Slump [and] Arale-chan" (as the original show is actually called). Also the remake (which replaced Dragon Ball GT in its timeslot) was replaced by none other than...One Piece, although it would be a number of years before One Piece would move to its current timeslot on Sunday mornings. |

I probably shouldn't have counted the 1985 version as unlikely. For me, I'd be surprised to see the 1971 or 1968 shows simply because they are so old. I'd be more than happy to be proven wrong, though. |

Dr. Slump is going to be shown legally and with subtitles for the first time???
FINALLY! I'm just hoping that they start with the original 1980s series! |

Here's hoping the subs for Hades & Slump aren't too crappy since it's expected to have the typical Toeilation issues.
As for One Piece, it's already up and as expected, the early episodes are the 16:9 Special Edition versions that's on Crunchyroll (together with 4:3), Netflix & Pluto TV. |
