| The third season is still somewhat recent. It might get a dub later this year or the next. |
 |
| My penis is confused.... I only read the very last part and clicked the spoiler.....I was essentially thinking this would be a Charlotte thread.... To say the least, I'm quite disappointed. |
| Never in history has a show with cross dressing been dubbed, and truly, a GIRL dressing in BOYISH clothing? Next you'll tell me there are sports series with girl leads or the ultimate taboo - a dubbed show with a "tomboy". |
 |
| Any show that's not airing on TV is certainly not aimed at a "mainstream audience." (There's a reason I accuse dub-haters of recycling 1990s newsgroup outdated talking points; the OP is a prime example.) TWGOK 3 wasn't "not dubbed" -- it merely hasn't been dubbed or even licensed yet, and there's plenty of reason to think Sentai will eventually pick it up. Summer convention season is approaching, and companies will be ramping up their announcements. So unless you hear Sentai say "we're never licensing this," or "we're licensing it but not dubbing it," don't count out the possibility. |

It has been dubbed and released by Sentai, though they already weren't consistent in the cast from season 1 to 2 from what I've heard, so chances of them dubbing the third seems extra low. |

| the 3rd season hasnt even been licensed yet so we most likely wont get a dub for a long time if ever at all. i assume this is because the first 2 seasons didnt sell to well in north america so sentai filmworks didnt feel that it was worth while to even try licensing and selling the third season. so unless they change their mind they likely wont be releasing it |

| It needs to be licensed for home release first. Who knows when Sentai will pick it up? But seriously, what you said is a stupid reason to not dub a show. I mean, just look at Is This a Zombie? It's kind of sad because this was actually one of Sentai's good dubs. Though if they give season 3 to Christopher Ayres, I'm fucking done. |

| This is a season that I'm legitimately worried about Sentai not dubbing. It's very true that the first 2 seasons did not sell well so if this gets dubbed at all, it won't be for A WHILE. And this season/arc was by far the best of the series in both the anime and manga. The other problem is that the Goddess arc really requires the viewer to have watched the previous seasons (you almost kind of need to read the manga to get info on some of the critical capture arcs that were glossed over too) to get any idea of what is going on. Combine that with previous sales, and it's not looking too good for Kamisama. And to the OP, the cross dressing or content really has no effect on if something will be dubbed. If it sells (especially in regards to Sentai), they'll dub it. Unfortunately, this has not sold which is a real shame. |

Sailormoon was so popular and it's last season wasn't dubbed because of the content. You will notice that if they are dubbed, they are completely changed. That was a looooooooong time ago when dubs were primarily made for airing on television first, and home sales second. Now, it's all about the uncut Blu-ray and DVD sales so content is not really as big of an issue. If it sells, they will dub it. |

VirtusSignum said: Is This A Zombie? is something completely different. The main character isn't cross dressing by choice, at first. and doesn't act like a girl while he is in dress up.. Invalid argument. You're also forgetting about Heavens Lost Property, Forte, and The movie for that series. Thus I deem your argument inaccurate and agree with everyone else that capitalism and fact that dubbing the show's third season would just not be profitable is the reason why there isn't any talk of a English dub.

VirtusSignum said: sailor moon was targeted at kids and was supposed to air on tv. twgok will NEVER air on tv and it is not targeted at kids so they are apples and oranges. you also seem to not understand how dubs are made so let me explain it to you. companies such as funimation and sentai filmworks (licensing companies) are american companies that pay the japanese companies that make anime for the right to sell their shows in north america (or whatever region the company happens to be in). these companies dub their shows to encourage people to buy the shows that way the licensing companies can make money. also 95% of the time it takes about 1 year to dub a show. twgok was licensed and dubbed by sentai filmworks and they havent even licensed by them yet which means 1 of 2 things. they plan on only licensing it later on or their north american sales of the dvds were so bad that they feel that they would not make money if they tried selling it. so if you are mad that it isnt being dubbed go buy the first 2 seasons or dont complainmattbenz99 said: VirtusSignum said: an it was an uniformed opinion.mattbenz99 said: ToriXtra said: the show aired last summer so even if it was licensed (which it isnt) the dub wouldnt even have been released yetSomehow I feel like it didn't not get a dub because of the crossdressing. joe-anime said: VirtusSignum said: This isn't specific to that anime, it just so happens to be the example I am watching.

The hypothesis of your view is that it is based on money and not selling well... |

Surprising considering it's the best season so far. Guess I assumed it was since it's listed in the dark blue color on ANN usually reserved for licensed works. Although, that only seems to be because Crunchyroll has the streaming rights. |

VirtusSignum said: You don't seem to grasp that there's a difference between a show like Sailor Moon that was dubbed for mass TV audiences and typical otaku anime like TWGOK that're dubbed for the hardcore anime fans who (theoretically) buy them on DVD and Blu-Ray. As many examples cited by others have proven, "controversial" cross-dressing and gender-bending content does not matter when it comes to dubbing anime for the core anime fanbase. What kind of agenda are you pushing here? Are you trying to prove that Western anime companies are still skittish and censorship-happy simply because one season of one show with minor genderbending content hasn't been dubbed yet? It's not 1999 anymore.It has been proven that seasons of shows were not dubbed and aired due to their graphic nature. That is what happened to Sailormoon, arguably one of the most popular and profitable animes ever... you are incorrectly assuming it has anything to do with how well the other seasons sold. The World God Only Knows seems to be pretty popular and I can't imagine it would do terrible enough sales to scrap it. Also, you speak of "seasons of shows" (plural) that were not dubbed because of their graphic nature, yet you've only mentioned Sailor Moon. Care to name any other series where later seasons weren't dubbed due to graphic/controversial content? |

VirtusSignum said: Zentasu said: Wtf did i just read? It does not make any sense. Crossdressing is very popular in US too... I spelled it out pretty clearly... several times. There is a difference between Mr. Nanny where Hulk Hogan wears a leotard and having someone dress in women's clothing and ACT LIKE A WOMAN. What part of that is too much to understand. ACTING LIKE A WOMAN... as in, if he talked, walked and displayed the mannerisms as if he was in fact a woman. Mrs. Doubtfire. It's been done in the west yo. |
VirtusSignum said: and your point is? women wearing "guy clothes" isnt taboo in north america i mean how many women wear clothes that are similar to what yui was wearing (just less fancy).mattbenz99 said: VirtusSignum said: no it isnt. that is like 2 episodes at most.Zentasu said: Wtf did i just read?

| I really doubt thats the reason, honestly. Besides, the main reason as to why the last season of Sailor Moon was never dubbed was simply because of content and that they wanted it to be age appropriate, but indeed it is true that part of the reason is due to that |

| Buncha a fail in this thread, bruh... SEASON THREE IS SET TO RELEASE IN MARCH. FULLY DUBBED. |
