Really wish licensors would stop region blocking trailer videos......... =\ Doesn't look like anyone has uploaded the trailer to Dailymotion or some place yet.

If you're using firefox like I am, you can install an add on called proxytube which'll help you watch region blocked videos.

Thanks for the tip! I'll try it out later. EDIT: It works! Thanks~ And umm... yeah.......... Well, I'll be buying this release when it's out, but I definitely won't be watching it dubbed. =x Just my personal opinion, but with most dubs I've seen, the acting doesn't sound natural.

This is likely 1 of the biggest justifications people use for watching shows on copyright infringing sites. |

Blocking videos that are of entire episodes due to licensing restrictions I can understand. Trailers, however, I don't think should be blocked. I hate how Crunchyroll basically blocks their entire website. I can't even access the news pages from Japan! |

@GokuMew2 Voice acting is not about being natural. It's about being believable enough to fit a character. As a person who loathes comparisons between JP VAs and English VAs, I shall not make one, however, given that many Japanese VAs admit that overacting is common in the bulk of anime, it shouldn't be an issue.
After all, nobody in real life uses the Japanese displayed in a shonen anime. It would be considered rude, due to the amount of slang, abbreviations and inflection. Using copulas such as "ze" and "ore" in Japan is an indication to what kind of person you are. Although terms like "yarou" are not as harsh as the English "bastard" or "jerk" or "f*cker" they are still considered to be rude. Naturalism is the last thing you want in anime. That's precisely why I dislike any language version of Ghibli movies. Too naturalistic, but not believable in the slightest. Besides, it's a trailer. Trailers with few exceptions generally don't give the full picture of a show or movie. After all, I though GITS Innocence was an action movie back in 2003. I realized it was more of an artsy, visual composition than it was an action movie. I know from what posts I've read of yours that you're more of a Japanese fan. No problem with that. Completely respectful view. However, if you're going to judge something, at least watch a few episodes of the dub. If you don't like it, fine, whatever. You wasted your time. However, it's always best to look at something for what it is than what it is not. I know this as a semi-Catholic apologist. You always have people looking for something when it's not there or twisting the context of something. Just try it out and see for yourself. |

I've been a fan of Liebrecht ever since Darker Than Black, and seeing he hasn't been a lead role since Eden of East, I had my fingers crossed on this one. And lo and behold! |

Liebrecht sounds fantastic! Cannot wait to own Noragami, I've been anticipating this release for a while now.

I'm pretty sure it sounds great at least, but with the music overshadowing it, it's not easy to tell.

Don't want to beat the dead horse, but it's good to hear more of Jason Leibrecht. This guy deserves to be in more anime. I always felt he was great.
Too bad about this being from Bones. They suck. |

For those of you who've watched the series, I was thinking about getting it for my middle school's anime club. I can show up to PG-13 stuff, but it can't have tons of fan service or extreme violence. I've heard great things about Noragami, but is there a lot of T&A or extreme violence?
Thanks! |
