I do appreciate how Aniplex sometimes uses the same JP promo material but with the English VA's, right down to listing them. It's equally as effective in my opinion.

This is exactly why I didn't watch the second half of War of Underworld as it was airing, because love the English dub too much switch to Japanese(unless its the games then that cause I have no choice).

I wonder if they're going to recast Agil.

No, it's the whole "POC should voice POC" thing that's resulted in so many white voice actors stepping down from playing colored characters in Western animation.

That said, I think Bang Zoom'll try to keep consistency by keeping Seitz as Agil, and maybe probably do a recast once they dub Progressive, assuming Agil even shows up in that one.

You really think people will be able to force them to change VA? Its really wishful thinking. And honestly I really dont understand the problem. His voice is perfect for Agil. Are there many black VA in the business? And even can match Seitz? Its just a voice roll its not luke a white actor get cast to play a black roll in a live series or movie. And this is anime noy Hollywood.
