Apparently they announced some new R cast for the Viz dub at Katsucon: Sandy Fox as Chibiusa and Veronica Taylor as Sailor Pluto.

Flone and Ash (or, more theoretically correct, Cosmos)

That...should be intresting.

I'm excited for that. Sandy Fox does crazy really well (assuming they use her for Black Lady too):

Haruna Niekawa, main antagonist for the second arc of Durarara, possessed by an evil sword who loves humanity. Durarara episode 16 has most of her crazy, though she's also in episode 17.

Did they mention when some new episodes might be coming out?

My one, singular gripe with the dub is they're pronouncing Endymion wrong.

Hell, they flubbed the pronunciation of Mamoru and Anime too. I don't recall the Japanese dub going MA-mo-ru, but rather Mah-mor-oo. And last I checked Ah-knee-may is not how Anime is pronounced.

And it doesn't seem like they announced anything else other than the voices of Ali and An (Ali is Brian Beacock, AKA Monokuma and ToS2 Lloyd Irving. I have no clue who An's VA is though.)

I hope so because I'm the only Pokemon fan in the universe who hates Veronica Taylor.

...Then again, if she's voicing a woman and not a boy, I probably won't have the same ear bleeding problems.

Mah-mor-oo goes counter to how Japanese is vocalized, the last syllable is pretty obviously "ru"

She's Nico Robin in the 4kids dub of One Piece if that helps.

She's also Amelia in Slayers. Not a good example of a lower voiced adult woman, however.

I found this old Sailor Moon thing on a tumblr. Can anyone tell me what it says and where this might have came from? Usagi's dress is a different color and so is Dimando's cape.

It looks like it's from a children's book, it's very straightforward. It says that Sailor Moon can't transform, and the prince says this is due to the black crystal he has. He grabs her and starts to hypnotize her. Then Tuxedo Mask tells her to snap out of it, saving her.

They're short (6-7 pages) hardcover books printed by Kodansha that basically tell the anime story. I happen to have an old beat up one and here are some crappy phone camera photos

Part of me is still curious if they'll attempt the next arc assuming SMC gets a second run. I mean there's also the usual issues, especially if they try to cram stuff into a 13-ep format again, but I think the slightly more serious tone the show has over all would work well for the Infinity Arc; they've done a good job with Chibiusa so far I think, since its less about framing her as this little kid the audience might identify with, and more like someone's scared kid. It helps a lot the S story in the comic is a little more nuanced and way less up its own rear end in regards to handling the newer characters (the musicals apparently handle it well, but I don't think the Outer Senshi have even been in other materials so far besides those) and IIRC the overall plot is a lot more coherent in it.

I'd wait until the TV airing ratings are in before we completely close the book on this gigantic clusterfuck and start worrying about Digimon Tri.

With all the merchandising and how cheaply they're animated I've got to assume Crystal is making money hand over fist.

Well yeah, I never said the animation quality wasn't poo poo. I just didn't expect anything else after a year's worth of delays, a bi-weekly update schedule and a shoestring budget. I just like it for the unashamed nostalgia cash-grab that it is.

Well to be fair they did that in the manga too.

Hell they did it in the 90s series as well but since they had a bunch of other poo poo going on in that as well they just cut the poo poo and took them all at once and saved them next episode.
