They will be dubbing season 2, unless the first season really bombs sales-wise. It just might be a while before it’s released, as the Japanese release just recently finished.
i love this show so far. i cant wait to see how it ends
saw what - one - maybe two episodes at a friend’s house … this is one where i would not mind seeing some more of it . fit it in some where - along with - princess resurrection - and - Rosario + vampire.
If it bombs, it won’t because my group didn’t buy our copies. The only problem with the release is that the dub employs actors whose signatures are nigh impossible to get (and if I did manage to track 'em down, I’d have way too many other shows to get signed first).
Having all the in-game stereotypical characters dubbed was hilarious. At least, I thought so.
I’m still not entirely sure that this show really needed a 2nd season, but if it does come out, I’ll buy the dubbed version.
While I generally don’t have a problem with most dubs, regardless of how others feel about any given dub in particular, I really didn’t like this choice:
As much as I love Hilary Haag in pretty much any role she’s done that I’ve heard, I feel this was a poor choice given her vocal range.
I’ve really enjoyed S1 thus far, and the rest of the cast is pretty spot on and fun to watch (especially the Patton/Christian duo, which is always fun to hear). But man, once it hit the Shiori arc, I was pulled right out of the show due to character voice shock.
I can’t seem to think of someone vocally better for the role currently, but Hilary was definitely not it.
I’ll be adding this to my collection regardless of that fact, but kind of sad that I didn’t enjoy it as much as I could have.
Was Shiori the silent girl who locked herself in the library, or was she the other one? Which leads to another problem, that Hilary Haag played 2 major “characters”. Hearing her as another role also jarred me out of the show. Personally I was disappointed that they didn’t Fosterize this a bit more; I wouldn’t have really minded that Haag was obviously 2 major roles if they had done something to spice it up, like having her line about “my precious library” sound more like Gollum, say. But alas, that didn’t happen. Aside from the line about Oprah (which still has “teh internetz” riled up) there wasn’t really any blatant Fosterization in this 
I’ve liked this so far, no complaints, but I can see where it would get repetitive unless they really speed up the storyline for Keima to complete his contract. I mean, they can only play out so many dating sim storylines.
i liked season 1 so far, praying Season 2 comes out on VoD. and SPOILER ALERT, kinda, the character they showed at the end of episode 12 of season 1, is she like Elsie’s sister or some relation? sorry if i sound a bit noobish, i just recently got back into anime so i am not as seasoned as a lot of you guys here. i really appreciate what you guys are doing Thanks!! :cheer:
Haqua is not family related to Elsie (as far as season 2 goes), but there IS a relation.
:whistle:
ok thanks shadzar, appreciate the reply. hey can anyone tell me where anime requests are to be posted? thanks in advance
In the Suggestion Box, there’s a thread called New Anime Suggestions.
thanks Slowhand really appreciate the help. and can’t wait to see what Anime Network has next
Surely I must not be the only one to have noticed the Ergo Proxy cameo in episode 11.
Out of the four girls, I thought Shiori was annoying (and might have had a legit mental issue) but, among the selection of all those books, she sure picks good stuff :laugh:
eh Shiori wasn’t that bad, i’ve seen worse in other anime. i thought Kanon was a bit annoying, constantly needing approval on everything she does( although the bits with her tasing Keima were funny lol) any idea timeframe wise when we will see season 2 of TWGOK? oh and will Rozen Maiden Season 1 be getting reaired anytime soon? i missed the 1st season and when i watch a season 2 of an anime it is nice to know what has been happening lol. one more quick question, the person who does Shinko’s voice in Rozen Maiden sounds an awful lot like the person who does Rachel Alucard’s voice in the Blazblue video game series? is it the same person and what is her name? thanks in advance.
I believe Rozen Maiden season 1 is one of the series they tried sending as pay per view to certain cable providers, which may be why you missed it. Likely they don’t even know when or if it will be run on free VOD at this point.
thanks for the reply and i am hoping it will be on VoD, btw, you wouldn’t happen to know who does Shinko’s voice would you?
Saw the finale yesterday and what an episode for gaming geeks:
- Old Famicom, Super Famicom, Mega Drive, Turbo-Graphix and TAPE games.
- Power Glove and Power Pad.
- Excite Horse~! and bullet-hell gal games
- God of Conquest mode takes 3 years off your life.
- Played 100 hours worth of gaming in a day.
- …AND YOU.
Plus the end with Keima possibly gaming himself to death and that ridiculous song
That made this series go on the “to-buy” list. IMO, the “filler” episodes were better and funnier than the main storyline ones, which is something you don’t ever see. The first two “conquests” were great and the jokes about the stereotypes were funny but, like I said earlier, I didn’t think too much of the last two girls.
Also, top-notch dub.
Loved this show. The final episode brought a huge smile on my face. Seeing the old Video Game Systems (SEGA!!) and Keima’s steup made me wish I could have one like it :(. Also, maybe I’m in the minority here, but I loved Kanon, especially her singing
