| I'm happy that DRRR has a chance to get more fans. |

| Adult Swim? Well, I'm not exactly surprised to see this. xD |
| Now it's going to be seen by all of the newbies, isn't it? I wouldn't be surprised if Izaya's and Shizuo's faces are as ubiquitous as Light's and Lelouch's. Also, there's probably going to be a ratings jump because of this, perhaps taking above Baccano again. Well, not that I mind. There are much worse anime out there, and this does make for a good starter series before you get into the really good but more obscure stuff. |

Of course, some people will say any dub sucks. What I find more interesting is that they choose to air it after the DVDs have all been released. |
| Good for DRRR I guess |
 |
| nice news |

| I think the dub is fine; the cast is great. |

| ^Adult Swim is a program block on Cartoon Network that airs some anime. Nice news that DRRR!! is getting on tv, now I have an excuse to rewatch it. I remember when it was airing, some people were hoping it would end up on adult swim, but I never thought it'd happen. I wonder if the show will get popular. Also, I wish they would air Baccano too...no matter how unlikely that is. ;_; |
| yay, so now more people can enjoy the great Durarara :D |
| its not even a good news. |
| I didn't even know they dubbed it. But from what I've seen, the only decent voices were Izaya's and Shinra's. Shizuo's was butchered, Mikado's was... ugh, Kida made me want to cry as a Kida fangirl. I'll end up watching it anyway, just so I can remember why I love watching subbed anime. Also, for the person who was asking, they only air it on Saturday nights/Sunday mornings. EARLY. From, I think, 11 PM to 5 AM. So I hope you like being a night owl. |
 |
| Oh, thats good~ :D |
| Sounds good |
 |
| I was curious to see what new anime Adult Swim was going to get so I am glad its DRRR and that it's going to get some new fans. Hopefully its well received. |
| YESH. |

| THATS GREAT! |
| Bleach? FMA? Inuyasha? More like Shounen Swim. |
| ....I'll give it another shot. =/ |
SurferDude said: Bleach? FMA? Inuyasha? More like Shounen Swim. LOL |
SurferDude said: Bleach? FMA? Inuyasha? More like Shounen Swim. I agree. A lot of people I know call themselves big anime fans when all they watch is that shounen crap that airs on Adult Swim... |
| Well, at least casual viewers will get to watch a superb anime, even if it is dubbed. Here's hoping that DRRR gets a second season because of this, I guess it's unlikely though ^^ |

| Well seeing that Adult Swim has shown basically the same exact lineup for the past decade it's good to see something new. I'll probably give it a rewatch to see how the dub is. If it's anything like Baccano's dub I'll enjoy it. |
| Ok™ |
| Announcement of anime being aired on Adult Swim -> Expected Panty & Stocking Well, this is interesting. |
| hrmm i wonder what the time slot will be... i dont watch anything thats on their now but i'm tempted to watch this series... |

| HELL YES. This news just made my day. Oh, and I've been watching shows on Adult Swim for a long time now, and not once has FLCL came on x_x |
| My avatar is from Kowarekake no Orgel. Please stop asking. |
| Well this is good on their part, hopefully it gets fair reception at least. |
| Looking at posts on the Internet wouldn't bother me so much if people didn't also mix up he and she. |

This is what, their 10th rerun of it straight? |

| WHAT!?!?! A good anime on Adult Swim? Haven't heard of that in a while. |
| New anime on Adult Swim is good news, now what the heck is keeping Inuyasha the Final Act off is the only question |
| My anime list |
| Wow, Adult Swim has pretty much the exact same lineup as when I used to watch it 8 years ago. At least with DRRR!! they're switching it up a little... |
| There's a separate stomach for cake~ |
| I JUST finished watching this yesterday. And it's about time they take Cowboy Bebop off. It's a great series...but when it's overplayed it gets really annoying. Anyways, at least a new anime is being put on. Cool. |
 My second attempt at a real sig. |

Crispin Freeman (Shizuo) was amazing, probably the best part about the dub. He's perfect for the role, as usual. I also thought Kida was well done, but, oh well. |
| I'm quite excited! I haven't listened to the dub yet, but I probably won't like it. Not that I think that all dubs are bad, but... I love the Japanese cast so much. I'm really excited though because hopefully Durarara will get more fans. Everyone I know who watches anime usually only watches the anime that airs on Adult Swim, none of which I've seen, so maybe this will give us something to fangirl/fanboy over together. |
 What "Adolescence" do you have? Do you remember "Childhood"? The irreplaceable one existed there. |
| Wait...its dubbed? O>O |
| well done |
| So is it going to start this Saturday? |
People are strange, when you're a stranger |
| I can't wait! I can finally look forward to it since I actually love the dubbed ver.! That and theres a chance of DRRR getting more fans :) Only if they could air more animes like DRRR,instead of reruning Cowboy Bebop like ten times cause it's getting annoying =___= |

| lol who cares |
| lucky people from the U.S. get most of the good anime dubs while other places don't get squat well i'll buy the dvd online anyway |
 |
| Finally a reason to watch Adult Swim again. Hopefully the dub is decent. |
