As long as we get the whole Chaika experience…
I’m still torn about holding out for the potentially-cool Collector’s Edition or just getting S1 as a standalone now…
I’m with you on a S1 vs CE, I’d like to get something a little nicer than normal with this series.

They still haven’t announced a license for S2 yet, and oddly, most of the CEs have been TBS titles, so I wonder if a CE would even be possible.

Q. That Chaika trailer is SO COOL. Will we be able to hear something with the voices in it soon? Or maybe a cast announcement?
A. Chaika trailer in question:
Yes, cast announcements for Chaika the Coffin Princess are on the way! We’ve already got an idea of what we want to do with them, so it’s just a matter of scheduling them out on our end.
So, long story short: SOON!
Chaika the Coffin Princess Cast Reveal: Akari
Joanne Bonasso lends her voice to the master saboteur Akari.
Still betting on either Luci Christian, Shannon Emerick, or Carli Mosier as Chaika (and who’s left should be cast as Red Chaika)
And Brittany Karbowski should be a lock as Frederica.
I wasn’t expecting Bonasso for Akari (too many strict dubs for me, I guess0 but more of her is always a good thing.

Q. When will the video for the next Chaika character be up? I love Joanne Bonasso as Akari. Is she in any of your other shows?
A. She did great, didn’t she? A new cast reveal will be up next week. Can’t say who it will be for, but I’m sure you can figure it out. ^_~
Chaika the Coffin Princess Cast Reveal: Toru Acura
Leraldo Anzaldua prepares for battle as the voice of master saboteur Toru.
Chaika the Coffin Princess Cast Reveal: Chaika Trabant
Kira Vincent-Davis stars as Chaika Trabant, daughter to the mad king, who just happens to talk in adorably broken speech.
Well, Chaika is kinda Ruri-ish so that works out. So far my only issue is with the translation of the transformation speech; it just doesn’t sound cool, kinda “Gurren Lagann”.
Right Stuf. Message.
Chaika Shipping.
Waiting Patiently.

Casting Highlights:
The Best a Man Can Get: Blake Shepard

Red Chaika: Brittney Karbowski
Watched a bit of the dub and it’s a Chris Ayers dub and it’s serviceable. it’s pretty good. not Infinite Stratos rank S or Log Horizon Rank A, I’d rate it a solid B
Since the possibility of a CE has me holding off on this one, I haven’t yet seen it. So are we talkin’ serviceable based on ADV standards?
For example, Sentai’s Hamatora, also by Chris Ayres, is serviceable by ADV standards but IMO it’s a contender for “Sentai dub of the year” if just compared to Sentai stuff lol.
Well if they eventually do a Collector’s Edition, I’d want them to have Season 1, Avenging Battle and it’s OVA all in a Nifty Coffin Case to hold the set.
