Set for release on April 12th, 2016, one of my favorite shows from the past couple of years has now revealed its English-language dub cast for it. Tonari no Seki-Kun: The Master of Killing Time is coming out on both DVD and Blu-ray and will include the clean opening and closing sequences as its extras. The dub is directed by Brittany Deans and will star:
- Monica Rial as Rumi Yokoi
- Blake Shepard as Toshinari Seki
- Andrew Love as Adachi
- Vic Mignogna as Mr. Yellow Tie
- Corey Hartzog as Uzawa
- Jad Saxton as Tomako
- Caitlynn French as Sakura
- Carolyn Medrano as Naka
- David Wald as the Narrator
The series is based on the original work of Takuma Morishige and was directed by Yuji Muto, with character design by Masae Otake. Shinji Kawai (STUDIO UNI) acted as Art Director.
Plot concept: During class, a schoolboy named Seki-kun is always creating things to entertain himself. All he cares for is creating things with an artist’s level of perfectionism and a craftsman’s attention to detail. Real dominos, shogi with original rules, a flip book with sounds…
Even Yokoi-san, who sits next to Seki-kun, always gets sucked into watching his games!
