I really wonder how this will be...apparently it's only going to be 12 episodes and it has enormous amounts of source material. I can't see this ending up good unless they do multiple seasons of it.

Regardless, at least we'll get reliable subs for it now.

It's confirmed to be a split 2-cour series and will probably have even more seasons if it turns out to be successful.

what's 2-cour? is that like two 12 ep seasons or...?


:) I hope for more seasons to come!

Licenses of this fall harvest getting grabbed left and right. It brings tears to my eyes... tears of joy! (not for the dubs)

Cool I hope it does well enough for them that they dub it.

I doubt it will be a free simulcast though so I'll stick to fansubs unless Crunchyroll gets it too somehow which I doubt, but meh.

Doesn't sound that interesting. I might try it out, if I'm bored enough, but I think it'd confuse me more than anything else. ^_^V

The press release says nothing about a BD version, which are the only releases that Sentai does dubs for. They went out of their way to announce that Persona 4 was getting a BD version, yet they made a conscious effort to not say anything about it for Horizon. So.. I'd doubt it.
It's too early to tell right now. They'll wait to see how well it does streaming-wise before deciding to dub it and give it a BD release, similar to how they handled Demon King Daimao.

Oohh? It looks like it might actually be good.
I wonder.

Sep 28, 2011 7:15 PM by Nachotee

good, this is one of the ones that look like the should be worth watching

Sep 28, 2011 7:08 PM by Neverarine

Right on, Sentai! I'm looking forward to watching this series.

Way too many characters to dub.
