I'm sooooooo happy this is being released State-side! It might have taken a long time, but it gives me hope for other classics.

Wonderful news!

Although, it's too bad about the limited edition dvd release. Maybe they'll print more if the demand is there.. Anyhow, this will be a perfect excuse for a rewatch of my favorite series, and a good opportunity to introduce the show to some people.

It'll cost a lot, and there isn't much demand either
Plus AFAIK there is already some translation availible so less work for the producers.
And LOGH... 110 episodes: making script, hiring VA (if they would go into this area) - that would be madness and probably not even that profitable, compared to cost of making it.
True that, but one should not disregard the fact that LoGH's got much more potential than most shit that get licensed out there; not specifically aiming at Right Stuf. Hell, I wonder sometimes how brilliant it would've been if LoGH had been licensed right there and then, the period it was already in the making; west, at least western animation fans, would've been totally into the epicness had it been aired at some Adult Swim or something. Not to mention, LoGH, then, would've had a much larger fanbase than now.

You could watch that five-minute dubbed clip of eps. 51 & 52 five-hundred times and pretend they dubbed the entire series.
Nah, subs are enough. Plus, I have this hunch they wouldn't be able to match the intensity in English dubs; not to mention the fact that Right Stuf doesn't dub.

An epic announcement! I never thought in my wildest dreams that someone will release RoV in English. Hope this follows with Onii-sama e and someone licensing Orpheus no Mado manga.

My life needs classics! I've watched Lady Oscar like twice in my childhood, I don't think I remember everything about it.
I will try my best to get my hands on the box-sets when they'll be available even if they will cost a fortune!

It's not never, though it is rare. They have titles like Kare Kano, Irresponsible Captain Tylor, Boogiepop Phantom, Shingu, etc. which feature dubs.

So, most likely it won't get a dub, but it's not impossible.

EDIT: Eh, sorry, strike that. I just found this line in their press release.

"It is an honor and privilege to bring this beloved series to DVD, via Nozomi
Entertainment, and work with TMS and Viki to introduce our English-subtitled translation of the anime inspired by Ms. Ikeda’s masterwork to North American fans. ”

Though, it only took 3 decades for a licensing company to recognize its greatness.


Just so you guys know, the fellas at Rightstuf have been trying to get Rose of Versailles for some time now. Shawne Kleckner, the president of Rightstuf has been at it for literally a decade.

If you've got any interest in it, give 'em some thanks and check it out.

If I can afford it I will definitely buy it. Was about to torrent it when I saw it was getting liscensed, so I will wait. =)

If I can't afford it I'm sure it will at least go to Hulu for some time.

All the episodes are already available on Viki they seem to have that "Dear Brother" series on there too that RoV's mangaka also made.
