Probably not on Adult Swim, but I would assume Max would offer both English and Japanese options. We'll have to wait and see.

They posted the show OP:
Both Beebop and Champloo had good dubs.

Excuse me but Watanabe shows get good dubs. I prefer Bebop, Champloo and Dandy with the English VA's.
Very free jazz.

Not shocked. Anything with Adult Swim backing always ends up mediocre.
Good opening though.

I'm more surprised at you easily trusting an IGN score than I am at IGN giving that score.

I mean I'll still give it a watch but nothing with Adult Swim backing ends up well. Have people not learned from Ninja Kamui, the forced FLCL sequels and Uzumaki? Jason Demarco is a fraud.

I can't be bothered to rewatch the 30 minute video I saw discussing it, but Uzumaki's production issues likely had nothing to do with Jason or Adult Swim based on the evidence the video discussed about the info that was gathered about the production. It's one thing to not like the guy, but don't automatically assume he's the main cause of any production that goes south just because he's connected to it.

Doing a quick Google search reviews seem to range from "meh" to "far from Watanabe's best, but no bad".
Guess I'll still check it out. And the reviews are apparently based on less than half the show so it could get better (though I'd argue the vast majority of anime and manga struggles with sticking the landing....not the beginning)

You tell me to see sense….by linking to a studio that had nothing to do with the adaptation of Uzumaki, which is the one I specifically questioned you about?

Uzumaki was clearly shifted from one team to another because of project costs managed by Demarco. Time Warner funds Adult Swim. They don't have enough budget to fund a full show. Maybe a 45 minute OVA that could look incredible.You tell me to see sense….by linking to a studio that had nothing to do with the adaptation of Uzumaki, which is the one I specifically questioned you about?

To be fair to adult swim, the fact that they've managed to survive and thrive for so long under an extremely volatile WB, is impressive.
These shows are of varying quality though. The main issue with Ninja Kamui, which ended up being a solid show, was it's CGI usage.

Watched the first episode. Animation quality isn't great and the action is choppy and the camera work is erratic.
Not shocked.
At least I have Yaiba this season for some real sakuga.

I watched the first episode, the English dub is disgusting, and unfortunately since this is only available on Channel 4 here in the UK, we're fucked. I didn't find the first episode all that interesting or entertaining, but the premise is good and could develop into something more satisfying.

What's wrong with the English Dub?

Dull, flat and emotionally disconnected from the characters. In my opinion of course. You may enjoy it.

I liked it as well, but all of that cool parkour just made me want to start playing Mirror's Edge again lol.

Not sure if this is the halfway point or not with it being 4 episodes in, but I've seriously enjoyed what I've watched so far.
While it isn't an exact beat for beat masterpiece in the way that someone would see Cowboy Bebop, it definitely gives the feeling of an old quality Adult Swim show on multiple accounts.

I've hated every episode I've watched.
Everything is so on the nose my skin is coming off. Cowboy Bebop's world was very particular about its world building and was a potential future out of reach of our life time with well researched multicultism, every planet had it's own economic state. This show is set 27 years in the future but has problems from 2025. The latest episode was wrote by Dai Sato but mentions Crypto, AI and Diddy Parties.
The latest episode had a Crypto bro actually say "WOMEN DON'T KNOW ANYTHING!"
Also in the opening for the show they always have a monologue about something and said that kids took this drug despite not needed painkillers. There was an underground circuit for it... Why isn't that an episode with the younger main characters focusing on it?
Probably gonna end up Watanabe's worst show by a mile.
