They’re dubbing Chained Soldier now? I mean I’m glad, but I guess it’s for the inevitable Hulu addition, because no way in hell does that get on Toonami.

I'd appreciate the dub for Level 1 Demon Lord more if it didn't take them an entire f#$cking year to get to it. Here's hoping they don't drag their heels this much for Plus-Sized Elf.

Sentai decided to dub almost everything they touch.

Summer '23, 5/6 dubbed (only SpyRoom 2nd season wasn't, which we know didn't do well on streaming as they even dropped Spanish subs for it after having Spanish and Portuguese for S1)
Fall '23, 4/4 dubbed
Winter '24, now up to 3/5
They are yet to start on Spring '24, but they only got 2 simulcasts

With the current pace of 5 dubs on going per season, and not many simulcasts, they are catching up fast.

I was hoping we would get a dub announcement for Urusei Yatsura Season 2. It's finished now and they haven't even given us any announcement

I hope we get an English dub release for Gushing Over Magical Girls.

I am very happy that Chained Soldier is getting dubbed in English.

I also want a dub for that one. But since Qwaser of Stigmata, Redo of Healer and Immoral Guild (the most lewd titles, along Gushing Over Magical Girls, in Sentai's catalog) did not get dubs I doubt Gushing is getting one.

And Akane Mizuno, the dub for UY season is probably coming around September.

The cast for that one wouldn't be huge, but I'm honestly drawing a blank as to who could do Magia Baiser and her many sides justice vocally, even thinking outside of talent Sentai usually works with. Someone who can convincingly go from shy and self conscious, to over-excited and kinda delirious, to full bore pervert, with occasional dashes of uber domme energy, is a rather rare talent. I guess we could hope for them to pull off the same magic trick the JP audio did and find a previously unknown talent who knocks it out of the park.

Gushing Over Magical Girls actually isn't that lewd compared to most fan service animes.

Isn't really that lewd? I mean... there's a lesbian sex scene that's barely censored.

I was watching a YouTube review of it the other day, and the reviewer called it "a hentai that's somehow on TV with a really catchy and gorgeously animated opening". I realized it was pretty hard to argue otherwise.

Exactly why I'm replying to this...ugh, seriously Sentai/HiDive, thanks for disappointing TMM fans by bringing up that twitter poll asking fans in general if they wanted a dub for TMM New. Majority voted yes, but Sentai/HiDive never went anywhere it it. Honestly, it just feels really soul-crushing and draining to be a TMM fan stateside.

As for GoMG getting a dub? I can see it possibly happening eventually, but they would have to make it work with the right voice cast. Also, IIRC, isn't GoMG's anime version more lewder than the manga? (Basically how Interspecies Reviewers' anime version is more lewder than the manga version, as an example.)

+1 on this.

We FINALLY had a chance at an uncut TMM dub.....and it never happened.

No surprise they're dubbing Chained Soldier but I'm happy they're dubbing Instant Death Ability and Level 1 Demon Lord because I felt those titles were surprisingly enjoyable/underrated.

I'm guessing they'll finish the Urusei Yatsura remake dub next season.

Chained Soldier and Level 1 Demon Lord were two titles that were on my "Should I finally go ahead and start viewing these subbed or are they going to get a dub?" list. As such, I'm glad to see them here. Now I'll just have to wait for the dub to finish since I normally only do week-to-week for simulcasts.
