Lots of S.A.V.E. editions and re-issues this month. But hey, we are getting Lucky Star on BLURAY! Yeah! Also, recently Funimation has started doing more Sub Only releases, so we wanted to point out that this month Shonen Hollywood, A Good Librarian, Samurai Warriors, and Yatterman Night are all Sub Only.

Also, a lot of people have been writing in asking if the Lucky Star OVA's were getting dub treatment this time around. I wrote Funi and the brand manager for Lucky Star finally got back to me:

  "As with the original Bandai release, the TV series is dubbed and the OVA will not be dubbed."

So no dub for the Lucky Star OVA's, just the TV series.

Before I order this, can you confirm that the OVA's for Lucky Star are Dubbed? As I recall, Bandai never dubbed them. Thanks!

I finally got word back from the product team at Funimation:

"As with the original Bandai release, the TV series is dubbed and the OVA will not be dubbed."

So no dub for the OVA.
