I think Mary Morgan and whoever the other guy listed on ANN was might be playing the other two main characters.

No, they are additional voices it says on both their resumes for this show.

However, it gets complicated when you can't gauge the accent abilities of all the actors coming in to record. The show rocks and I can't wait til Vol. 1 comes out next month!

Is this a co-direction? It says you were directing somewhat too but is Sabat just directing you or is there something else. I'm guessing this was done at Okratron?

I also heard that Brina Palencia has a "significant role" in this, although the character was not specified. I'm guessing that she probably is Lenalee. This and Soul Eater are shows that have the best chance of getting a TV deal.

If you ever get the chance you should post the British Allen you did. It would certainly be interesting to hear.

I guess "officially" I'm directing and he's line producing, but we share the load - especially on a large show like this.

Luci Christian & Mike Sinterniklaas officially confirmed to be in the cast. Luci is on the commentary track (so I'll assume she's playing Lenalee?) and Mike is playing someone, dunno who.

I was able to find the following post at another site...

Lenalee Lee - Luci Christian
Lavi/Millennium Earl - Jason Liebrecht
Komui Lee - J Michael Tatum
Road or Lero - Cherami Leigh
Hevlaska - Wendy Powell (I expected this, given the trailer...)
Marion Cross - Chris Sabat

Care to confirm or deny, Todd?

I could believe all of those except this one. I seem to recall the Millennium Earl generally having an old man voice.

Confirming

PS - As far as double casting goes, Cherami is Road only...

Thanks for the confirmation.

I can't wait to hear this dub. I've been looking forward to it since well, forever almost.

Very excited indeed.
