|
|
According to wiki, Funimation issued C&D orders to fansubbers this month over Evangelion 1.0
Does this mean that there is likely to be an english dub? Could it also mean a Madman release? Dare I ask... does this mean there could be special features?!
Is there anything that prevents Madman from releasing a dub of a dvd title that is already being sold in Australia? |

I would imagine there would be. It would be tied in with the licensing of the title itself, not the dub / sub. _________________ The Ghost of Zeon |

Funimation, eh? Nice.
I was thinking of picking up the local Red Ant release, however I may hang out for the Funimation version and import now though. _________________ I challenged Ash Ketchum to a Pokémon Battle.

I checked ANN and can't find any stories to back up wiki. Maybe they're just slow this time... _________________ Critical Finisher |

Also note that just because cease and desist letters were sent out, this does not mean they have the rights to release the film. However, I can't think of any instance where Funimation has sent notices out and then not announce that they had acquired the anime at a latter date. |

Seems like an odd thing to do if they don't have the license. They're probably at least looking into getting it. _________________ Critical Finisher |

I just watched the dubbed of the anime Eva 1.0 - I think the only 2 characters that used the original voice are just Shinji and Misato, everyone else was a different actor.
It feels different, I wouldn't say it's worst or better since it's pretty much a new re-telling of the Eva franchise so the new voices don't really sound that out of place.
I would say it's works within the confines of 1.0 so it's something that people who prefer the english dub would enjoy. _________________ "I just want one goddamn shower without the touchy touchy" |

For anyone who hasn't heard it, Funimation have put up the first 8 minutes of Eva. Having already watched the director's cuts of certain episodes, I was already used to the idea of Tristan MacAvery not playing Gendo, and honestly, it's hard to imagine anyone else but Spike Spencer playing Shinji. Allison Keith does sound very close to Amanda Winn Lee for Misato. Good casting. Even more so since Allison and Amanda are friends. _________________ PSN: Dartal1138

JOYGASM!!! Even tough I already have the RedAnt release the dubbed MM release has me exited like i havent seen it at all yet.
Though I will say that Ritsuko and Fuyutsukis voices tone and just the way they deliver there lines throw me out a fare bit.  _________________ Watashi Wa Nekomata

unfortunately due to money constraints I'll have to pick it up a little after release. I've been waiting a while to watch though.
I'm fine with the VA changes, cept for Ritsuko, she sounds so different, it will take some getting used too, Gendo's voice isn't as strong, it sounds a bit more gentle but still sounds fine. |
