Srice posted:Going by blu-ray/dvd sales, it's definitely one of the more successful things they've had in years. Regarding the whole studio/profit things, it's more than just light novel rights. As the original publisher and part original creator, they get a piece of literally every piece of merch/airing/etc. They also fronted the most money to produce the show, therefore getting the most in return for a lot of things. Additionally they produce their own merch which they get a large share of (royalties have to go to other committee members). The final big point is that they were in charge of designing the video discs for sale, therefore they recouped the majority of proceeds instead of the video publisher (who usually gets that). There's very little out there that could be a comparison (even a lot of the other original series from various creators/studios don't have that much revenue sources going to it). It's a seriously big amount of yen heading into KyoAni from this and Chu2koi. (Kyoukai was good and Tamako not as big as the others, but not as bad as people assume based on disc sales alone).

The Devil Tesla posted:I think they just grabbed whatever Australians they could to do the voices so feels like a serviceable dub more than anything. They obviously weren't pros but it's not like the dialog was great or anything. Successfully captured the pleasant awkwardness that exists between exchange students and host families. The English voices were actually recorded by an American studio/director. The director for those voices was William Winckler, who worked on the English dubs for a lot of older Toei shows like Fist of the North Star. Voices were found by Atomic Monkey Entertainment, a talent agency linked with others in Japan (thus easy to find people in the US).
