16:42:55 <bay|AX|Viz> when it's available, we'll have word
16:43:22 <bay|AX|Viz> Q&A
16:44:11 <bay|AX|Viz> Q: Will the K project, will the movie and anime coming in the same season?
16:44:18 <bay|AX|Viz> A: I'm not sure of the release schedule, season 2 hasn't aired yet
16:45:08 <bay|AX|Viz> Q: Seeing the dub for crystal, who decides on the voice over dubs? Who decides on the voice?
16:45:14 <bay|AX|Viz> A: Sailormoon was a special process
16:45:17 <bay|AX|Viz> it's the same voices as classic
16:45:26 <bay|AX|Viz> we know it meant so much to fans, so we took it seriously
16:45:39 <bay|AX|Viz> and the awesome thing about sailor moon is that the mangaka is that deeply involved
16:45:50 <bay|AX|Viz> so all the auditions were sent to her for approval
16:46:52 <bay|AX|Viz> Q: Since Sailor Moon Crystal and the Sailor moon dubs recently, how long is it taking for new shows to get dubbed?
16:46:59 <bay|AX|Viz> A: There is never a set time as it's due to when the materials are available
16:47:05 <bay|AX|Viz> as company policy, we wait for the final broadcast masters
16:47:13 <bay|AX|Viz> sometimes they change scenes, sometimes they change dialogue
16:47:17 <bay|AX|Viz> so we wait for the final final cut
16:47:26 <bay|AX|Viz> sometimes it's several months, sometimes it's a year
16:47:35 <bay|AX|Viz> in the case of Crystal, ep 1 was this time last year
16:48:37 <bay|AX|Viz> Q: (missed)
16:49:45 <bay|AX|Viz> Q: How challenging has it been to get good quality masters for the bluray releases
16:49:52 <bay|AX|Viz> A: The materials can be very different per show
16:50:01 <bay|AX|Viz> Depending on age, storage
16:50:09 <bay|AX|Viz> For new series, it's been mostly formalized
16:50:26 <bay|AX|Viz> It's challenging, but I think the team likes a puzzle to solve
16:51:11 <bay|AX|Viz> Q: Do you know if the reason of the seasons of Crystal will be rebooted?
16:51:19 <bay|AX|Viz> A: No news on any episodes after 26 at this time
16:52:14 <bay|AX|Viz> Q: How long will it take to dub Boruto?
16:52:26 <bay|AX|Viz> A: TBD... we are doing a theatrical run starting this october
16:52:32 <bay|AX|Viz> we will try and get it to you as soon as possible
16:52:42 <bay|AX|Viz> we recently did naruto the last and are currently working on the dub for that
16:53:58 <bay|AX|Viz> Q: When K Missing Kings is released, will it have the same subs as the JP bd or will Viz redo the subs
16:54:02 <bay|AX|Viz> A: TBD
16:54:31 <bay|AX|Viz> Q: Spanish dubs?
16:54:37 <bay|AX|Viz> A: They are not always available
16:54:51 <bay|AX|Viz> You are dealing with rights across multiple territories
16:54:57 <bay|AX|Viz> I have no news, but there may be something coming down the pipe
16:55:40 <bay|AX|Viz> Q: The Last Naruto Movie.. when will it be on DVD?
16:55:51 <bay|AX|Viz> A: Has not been determined at this time, but look forward to it pretty soon
