Very nice move Sentai, why do I feel like Chris Patton is going to voice Yuuki?

After realizing Sentai's pattern on DVD and Blu-ray release, I sense a dub for Un-Go! Awesome!
It's going in my Future Anime DVD Release List! XD

Since Un-Go is getting a Bluray release that means it will be dubbed Yay!

I can't see Un-Go selling too well on the American market, But what do I know?

UN-GO is bones America(and me) loves BONES. (see : Soul eater , darker than black , full metal alchemist , and Eruka seven)

If you ask me UN-GO is kinda similar to DTB both have white haired sidekicks , both stories that place in a post destruction Japan , and both characters have a secret past involving a woman. (If my speculations about the ED are correct both character get older anx get long hair and a trench coat.)

UN-GO is a pretty good show it's more entertaining than any other mystery show we have gotten lately.

might be that alot of people in MAL community not finding both anime good but USA has huge population, certainly that a fraction of the whole population will like UN-Go or A channel might be even bigger than the MAL community. Its also allows them to give out DMCA letters to Fan subbers anyway, which i found out when i was downloading raw episodes =P

I find UN-Go good, imo. But A-Channel hmm i felt like ive seen it before =.=. But will look on it later on xD.

I'm interested in both. Heck, I am a sucker for high school comedies regarding A-Channel.

Can't wait to own A-Channel! Hope they'll dub it.

They're already licensing UN-GO? I always find it weird how quickly these things get brought over.

This won't go well, I have seen both but I know it won't go well.

Both series' are in a market flooded with this stuff in the last year, look at all the moe and detective shows in the last year.

Can't even count them on my fingers
