Scheduled to release on January 30, 2024. Doesn't look like there's an English dub sadly.

Doesn't look like there's an English dub sadly.

It does say "Main Feature Audio: Dolby TrueHD: English 5.1" but I can't find information on the cast or anything so it might just be copy/pasted from other BDs.

There isn't any English cast listed on behind the voice cast either, so probably just an error on the listing.

I thought I would check back later and sure enough it's removed now. Definitely an error.

I think the issue with dubbing any music anime is the music. You either keep it in JP or dub it, neither of which is very optimal. Due to differences in industry you often aren't going to find suitable replacements of the same quality for the vocalists, and leaving it in JP is hella awkward and immersion breaking. It's a pretty big lose lose.

As someone who hasn’t yet seen it, but it’s on my list to watch, is the English dub that awesome? I generally prefer to watch anime with original audio and subs unless it’s a really solid dub job.

Afaik there's only the original Japanese dub. To be honest, I also prefer sub over dub, but I think having the option to listen in English would be super cool.
