Q. Is there really going to be an English Dub of Parasyte the Maxim?
A. I guess it’s okay to say that YES, there will definitely be an English dub for Parasyte. When it releases is still up in the air due to some recent developments, but when it does you can look forward to that dub. Thanks!

[size=20]Parasyte -the maxim- to Air on Toonami This Fall[/size]
posted on 2015-07-02 12:22 EDT
Anime already streaming on Crunchyroll
Sentai Filmworks brought a truck to this year’s Anime Expo convention in Los Angeles on Thursday with an ad revealing that Parasyte -the maxim- will air on Adult Swim’s Toonami block this fall.
The 24-episode series based on Hitoshi Iwaaki’s manga premiered in October. Crunchyroll streamed the series as it aired in Japan and Sentai Filmworks licensed the series for North America, South America, the United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand.
Sentai Filmworks describes the story:
Update: Sentai Filmworks told ANN that it could not comment on the ad on the truck at this time, and asked fans to stay tuned to the Sentai Filmworks panel later on Thursday.
Update 2: The truck has since covered the section of the ad that had said that the show would air on Toonami this fall.
Dang it’s a trend, 2 shows in a row , Suck it, Funimation
