AnimeLab has set up their announcement that they’ll be bringing out the three simuldubs of the summer season on their service soon. The Australia based service is bringing on board the previous episodes that are out and new episodes are going live on Thursdays for the new series Gangsta, Prison School and Sky Wizards Academy. Further solidifying their relationship with FUNimation is that they recently brought on several of the past anime Broadcast Dub shows to the service with
- Absolute Duo
- Assassination Classroom
- Death Parade
- Maria the Virgin Witch
- PSYCHO-PASS Season 2
- The Rolling Girls
They also picked up the non-FUNimation series Sword Art Online II. Check out the previews of the new shows below!
Gangsta: In the city of Ergastulum, a shady ville filled with made men, petty thieves, prostitutes on the make, and cops on the take, there are some deeds too dirty for even its jaded inhabitants to touch. Enter the “Handymen,” Nic and Worick, who take care of the jobs no one else will handle. One day, a cop they know on the force requests their help in taking down a new gang muscling in on the territory of a top Mafia family. It seems like business (and mayhem) as usual, but the Handymen are about to find that this job is a lot more than they bargained for.
Prison School: Hachimitsu Academy, known for its strict academic standards and even stricter school code, is making a giant change this year. In the first time in school history, they are allowing boys to be admitted. As Fujino Kiyoshi starts his first day at Hachimitsu Academy he is shocked to find out that there are only 4 other guys in the entire school, making the ratio of girls to boys 200:1. And to their dismay, not one of the thousand girls will talk to them or even acknowledge them. But Kiyoshi and the guys are about to find out about the shadow student council that has been threatening the female students about interacting with male students.
Sky Wizards Academy: The story is set in a world where humanity, driven off the land by the threat of magical armored insects, now live in aerial floating cities. Thus wizards – aerial combat mages who fight the insects with magical powers – came into being.
Kanata Age is a young man who lives on the floating wizard academy city of “Misutogan.” He was once celebrated as the “Black Master Swordsman,” the elite ace of the S128 special team. However, he is now despised as the “traitor of the special team.” One day, he is assigned as the instructor of E601, a team that has suffered 10 consecutive defeats. E601 has three girls – Misora Whitale, Lecty Eisenach, and Rico Flamel – with one or two peculiar quirks.
I just don’t see Sky Wizards being dub-worthy.
For the two episodes that are out, it’s decent, but it’s that crappy kind of decent that isn’t really the fault of the dubbers, if you get the what I’m trying to say.
