Funimation is announcing the cast members day by day, and the English dub will premiere at Anime Central on Sunday.

Here is today's list:
Alex Moore as Suzuno Kamazuki
Aaron Dismuke as Hanzo Urushihara
Anthony Bowling as Shiro Ashiya

I'm sure Aaron will do an excellent job as Urushihara. I've yet see a character he screwed up. As far as I'm concerned, he's one of the best actors out there. I don't really care for the other two people though.

I googled Alex Moore and didn't find anything.

Lately it seems like Funimation have been bringing in some new talent (For example half the female cast in We Without Wings were new to voice acting) and I can only see that as a good thing.

Aaron Dismuke sounds like a sensible choice to play Urushihara but I can't speak for Anthony Bowling since I've only heard him in Baka and Test and here he's playing a completely different character.

I'm just waiting to see who they cast as Chiho

It doesnt sound that good but granted funimation makes such terrible trailers that can make even their best dubs sound like shit. and we only really hear maou and emi.

Honestly, I shouldn't have been so excited for this dub as to make this thread. It's not even as good as people make it out to be. The voices barely fit the characters and the comedy is just not the same. I doubt even Aaron Dismuke could save this dub from its mediocre state.

Well, even though it's not so good, I'm still buying this anime. I love Hataraku Maou-sama and I feel guilty for watching it as a fansub. If anything, buying these Blu-ray + DVD combo packs will convince the producers to make a second season.

It actually wont make any difference and wont influence them either way. Animators dont give two fucks about the dvd sales over here.

I saw a bit of the first episode. Everyone sounds great. Especially Josh Grelle and Tia Ballard.

Really can't wait to see the rest.

It's not often I like english dubs.
This one good.
I even liked the voice for Chi-chan, it fits her.
Voice for Emi wasn't that good, but it's ok.

Agreed. Maou and Alciel are the highlights, their banter comes across almost as good as the original.
Chi-chan is...fitting.
Emi is definitely the weak link, but she isn't that bad.

The humor translates much better than I thought it would. Their 'Ente Isla' language is pretty funny sometimes. Though the Katsu-DOOM was kind of lost..

The dub wasn't bad :3. Only thing that bothered me was Emi's lack of different expressions (she always sounded loud and angry as opposed to her having some scenes with quietness or being tired. I feel like there was a bit more variation to her japanese va.)

Other thing that annoyed me was Suzuno's voice. A bit too squeaky, but the dialect or formalness was spot on.

Ashiya, Urushihara, Maou, were good. even Sariel was pretty good.


There's my opinion, anyone else?

I'm watching this anime in dub and I must say that the voices are very fitting! 8/10 dub.
