The summer 2018 anime series Made in Abyss is getting its home video release handled by Sentai Filmworks in North America but the streaming side is from HIDIVE. With the home video release out and the show getting its dub streamed via HIDIVE, the folks at HIDIVE have put together a fun little bonus dubbing piece where you can see David Habold put in a bit of work. We get to see Harbold doing a little time in the booth and a very amusing remix afterward. He made is anime dubbing debut with Hitorijime My Hero with background voices and began moving on with Princess Principal after that before landing in Made in Abyss.
