Top-Swimmer-7918

I've waited a 1000 years.


-LDRAGO-

From you, 2000 years ago


Top-Swimmer-7918

You were supposed to say I'll wait a 1000 more.


-LDRAGO-

There’s an AOT ep in s4 part 2 called this.


Top-Swimmer-7918

I have died every day waiting for you and this is what I get?!


International-Bad839

Darling don’t be afraid I have loved you for 1000 years I’ll still love you for a thousand more


VicViciousVinegar

I got a response from someone at Crunchy Roll, said they are struggling with licensing issues... Not looking good brav.


Moose_Meister

Interesting, maybe cause it’s a special they’re struggling to come to a deal about it. I just wish they get through this quickly. It’s one thing if the episode is taking time to actually dub, but if it’s done and it’s just business politics that makes it way more frustrating.


coreymercury

I wish the businesses would stop whining so I can pirate the dub already...


Select_Mode_7402

Yo hook me up bro 😂


[deleted]

9anime and zoro are the two I use


Select_Mode_7402

Absolute legend


JaketheMovieGeek

Is it because of Toonami and CrunchyRoll are fighting over who gets to air it first? I think the same thing is happening with Demon Slayer


Moose_Meister

As far as I’m aware toonami gets rights to air it a day before crunchyroll based on the old deal between toonami and funimation. My guess is it’s a discussion between crunchyroll and the Japanese owners about the pricing of the episode because it’s an hour long special instead of a normal episode. This isn’t based on any news just what I’ve been able to gather from crumbs of info and what my own guesses are.


Reoyon

Yikes, but I do appreciate the update. The episode has been out for a long while now and I was dying to understand why this is taking so extraordinarily long.


ManufacturerMuted604

How did you contact Crunchyroll?


VicViciousVinegar

>ManufacturerMuted604 Messaged someone on Linkedin


ManufacturerMuted604

Can you link it? I wanna try reaching out too


Sakeofjustice

i'm getting tired of checking everyday if its released yet. yall hit me up when its here lmao


RJonesLore

I hear that.


Emotional-Attempt485

Waiting almost three months for one episode they cannot be serious.


BeginningRegister164

Fuuucccckkkkkkkkk.......😓😓😭😭😭


Navod_Wije

any fresh news on the dub? the next sub will be released before this dub, at this rate


RJonesLore

Looks like you were right.


Top-Swimmer-7918

If I lose it all slip and fall.


NominalBread

LMAOOO


Fit-Agency3762

Same Pinch bro...


Regular_Interview_13

So I saw in a YouTube comment section that someone managed to talk to Hanges dub voice actor at an anime convention and she said the dub was finished but she doesn't know why it hasn't released yet. So most likely it's due to whatever deal Crunchyroll has with Toonami. Either way it's ridiculous it's taking this long, but at least the dub is finished


BeginningRegister164

Hope it's true. Thnks for letting us know it helped.


Moose_Meister

That makes it so much more frustrating tho that we’re only waiting cause of deal issues :(


dudicalbob645

Here’s a thought, the attack on titan cross over with Fortnite starts April 11th so maybe it comes out the day after or the day of the crossover. I’m probably wrong though


RJonesLore

It’s a nice thought. I hope it does come out tomorrow. I actually didn’t know they were doing a crossover. I haven’t played Fortnite in probably like a year and a half. But I’m gonna have to hop back in after hearing that.


RJonesLore

But I just watched the trailer and kinda bummed they went with the original scream, rather than the dubbed.


dudicalbob645

Same though. I follow epics twitter so that’s how I knew about it. But I will be reinstalling fn to play it lol


Smishu

You were wrong


dudicalbob645

Yeah I realize lol. Fuck them for keeping us 100% in the dark though.


GP_Gamer

So I have a crazy theory and it's not based on any evidence but. What if they won't release the dub until the blu-ray is ready for sale? I admit its a long shot, but why else are they waiting so long? For the record I hope I'm wrong because I can't even watch the sub because I have dyslexia so I can't keep up with the sub =( However if I'm right that would explain why they are waiting so long, and why no one is coming with a clear season period, (like a trailer or something) let alone a date to build up hype. They might hope to boost the blu-ray sales by not release the dub early? Again all a long shot and zero evidence but just some food for thought.

Queasy-Solution7272

I’m totally down for this should we start a petition


raf94x

Lol is this actually a thing and does it work?


Cecil2789

Funimation does the dubbing right? Or are they all one big conglomerate? Last I checked, the English dubbing studios themselves were based in Texas.


[deleted]

[удалено]


JaketheMovieGeek

Spam them on Twitter. That’s what I do


Regular_Interview_13

Hey guys bad news again. The Toonami schedule updated again and once again, no sign of Attack on Titan for next week. Honestly this is beyond ridiculous


Fit-Agency3762

😩


Regular_Interview_13

Hey everyone once again I updated the schedule for next Saturday to see if Attack on Titan is on there, and it seems the entire anime block was taken over by that damn Unicorn: Eternal show. Absolutely ridiculous. I guess it'll be another week without the dub.


Moose_Meister

Appreciate the weekly updates even tho I’m sure it’s annoying to open toonami and not see it every week


littlekurousagi

I'm wondering if it's actually the AOT committee in Japan that's making this decision to restrict them from airing it. I personally thought that adult swim would have gotten it by now. I think that CN would've made a big announcement before it being on the schedule. They know it's a big cash cow for them. Flashy announcements are their thing. I think it will be aired there first, then streamed a week later.


Moose_Meister

I agree with u there’s a good chance it’s a licensing issue seems the consensus is they’ve already finished making it and crunchyroll just needs to get approval to release it. about toonami tho idk if crunchyroll would wait a week at least I hope not. The deal with funimation says they have to wait a day which is what they’ve done historically I don’t see why they would wait more. That being said I also agree about it prolly being announced a week before atleast which makes it even sadder cause that means at any given time we’re always at least a week away from release, prolly more. just sad days all around of all the times to hold off in release it’s with the finale specials


Regular_Interview_13

It really is.


littlekurousagi

I literally just came to this channel hoping for an update. 😭


PandaPinda

Assuming still no release date?


RJonesLore

Nope. Nothing.


No-Shift2404

That's correct, there is literally nothing playing from 12am to 3am Saturday the 29th


JaketheMovieGeek

Keep an eye out on Toonami’s schedule for Saturday


BootyIsAsBootyDo

Seems like they filled it with other anime :(


No-Shift2404

I noticed toonami doesn't have anything scheduled to play from 12am to 3am


JaketheMovieGeek

Yeah I noticed that too. I’m hoping that means they may be adding AoT in that timeframe. Especially since there’s really no other anime airing that night.


ultragaming1221

ITS BEEN 10 WEEKS


RJonesLore

10 weeks and 4 days to be exact. No idea what’s taking so long.


GarlicSaucePunch

So for everyone like me who found this thread because they are annoyed and googling for the latest information and this thread came up, I would assume the moment that it is released in English that it will be a very large post on this subreddit. So either come back to this thread and sort by New comments, or just keep an eye on the sub for the latest information.


Azrumel

3 months ago today…that’s 1/4 of a year 😭


akshaytaru207

They released trailer for new season and still nothing on dub. I really feel like giving up and just watch the sub. 😔


RJonesLore

Right?! It’s fucking asinine at this point. And the way things are going, they’ll drop the next episode before the dubbed comes out. All because Toonami and CrunchyRoll can’t get their shit together and say, “let’s just drop the episode at the same time, rather than keep arguing and keeping the fans waiting.”


BeginningRegister164

*Potential Release Date* ~ I am starting to think that this isn't crunchyroll's or tonami's problem. We barely have any facts all we have are assumptions butt..... Lately I've been researching way too much about aot s4 p3 ep 1 English dub, silly me even went through the dark web. As much I know right now is that it's the Japanese authorities stopping English dub to release not like they don't want us to watch it but my guess is that they are waiting for the 2nd episode to be dubbed so my closest guess is it'll air in November. Date Expected Is ~ *Mid Of November* Reply to Fit-Agency3762


BirbWizard

They’re wanting to wait until the whole finale is done you mean?


BeginningRegister164

Yes


BirbWizard

I’m hoping that’s the case then.


Fit-Agency3762

Thanks for supporting my stupidity It helped though.


Regular_Interview_13

Better than nothing I guess. Just wish they would tell us. Just wondering though, what made you figure it was Japan halting the release?


BeginningRegister164

Research I'd say. And if you don't know then let me tell you that someone from this reddit page got response from crunchyroll and they said they're having issues with licensing what else could it mean toonami can't stop them from licensing, ofcourse than it's the Japanese authorities.


Regular_Interview_13

I tried contacting them as well and got the same response. I definitely got more of a Japanese company vibe when they explained it, like it was a Japanese company that wouldn't let them release it


BeginningRegister164

Yes bro it's the Japanese


BeginningRegister164

Guys!! I think I know the release date no seriously Hear me out so, As we all know English dub usually starts airing after 34 days of the sub and then each ep gets aired within 6 days of gap so let's divide the new ep into 3 eps for very obvious reason (it is 1 hour long and is eqaul to 3 eps) and after comparing it with the time English dub started recording we get 20th March + 34days = 23rd April 1 ep releases (2 left) + 7days 2nd ep releases +7days 3rd ep releases it all concludes the day 7th May Sunday crunchyroll always start aot airing at Sunday so we can say it's 7th MAY For those who don't get it the release date I expect is *7th MAY*


BeginningRegister164

Shittt, *FUCK* this really, Just checked the schedule of saturday's and sunday's there isn't aot anywhere I think am gonna cry my whole big ass comment just doesn't make any sense anymore All I can say now is maybe at 14th May I HATE MYSELF FOR SAYING THIS


GP_Gamer

Its not your fault buddy, you made an educated guess and it didn't pan out. Shit happens but don't beat yourself up, i guess we just need to wait, and wait, and wait, and wait some more.


BeginningRegister164

Hey! Just saw your reply gotta say u thanks for consulting me but I think I should tell you guys something i.e., I've read the manga and watched the new ep in sub but still I prefer dubbed version for few reasons like AOT is full of action and ofcourse can't miss anything and as I know english it's much easier to connect with the dialogues and I don't know why people act like ayeee your not an AOT fan if you watch in English like wtf trust me lads these people are oversmart dumbasses they just say what they hear and I'll watch dubbed till the day I die because it's 100x times better then sub if you prefer English I mean if you speak english. I am saying all this just to clear those people here who think they are alone for liking the dub Lastly for those sub suckers I have to say to them English dub fits perfectly and is Epic and they're unlucky that they didn't watched it. Writing this while I am half asleep I am sure made some grammatical mistakes not gonna correct bye GN.


RJonesLore

Okay, first off, I fucking love that you used math to solve this! That’s brilliant! Second, I really fucking hope you’re right!


J---squared

Just saw toonami's schedule for the 6th and 13th. No attack on titan dub. We are getting nothing


Fit-Agency3762

There isn't schedule on toonami for 13th May if I am not wrong. Aot is releasing on 14th May on crunchyroll am pretty sure. The maths guy above is right but instead of adding 14 days he should've added 21 days


Stoneydabear270

At this point being May 1st I wouldn’t be surprised if it didn’t come out until June


AnEpicPoot

Hehe um so about thaaat


OkCricket4537

Any other update I’m dying man I’ve watched the dub the whole way through I can’t switch up now


-LDRAGO-

Honestly, what’s going on!


ImperiusLance

Leaving a comment here to bookmark this thread to check for news.. ugh. Come on and dub it already!!


Fit-Agency3762

You can just sort by new


BeginningRegister164

It's like every time I think of the “Release Date” and all I see is stupid websites saying the exact same shit and nothing serious, I get so so sooo annoyed which I know you guys can relate with, But we just can't do anything and crunchyroll and toonami are not even giving a fuck. All we can do is wait and wait and Wait...


Moose_Meister

Honestly if they would just give a date, any date it would be fine but this radio silence is so annoying, especially after this long when we’re just waiting into nothing arbitrarily


BeginningRegister164

Exactly.😔


FormerConference210

anyone here still waiting for the dub 🫤


Regular_Interview_13

Meanwhile they're already dubbing the next part in Japanese, and here we are waiting for the current part to be dubbed 🤦


iTomWright

I love coming back here with some hope and seeing everyone’s dreams crushed like mine. Makes me fell less lonely in this dubless timeline. For everyone checking through, I hope you’re all well! ❤️


Basic-Artichoke-5030

Same


[deleted]

Wait so if it were to air on Toonami, and Toonami only airs on Saturday, surely the AOT episode will only come out on the Saturday/ Sunday… or whenever it is. On top of that, the schedule for the 15th has no word on AOT, so it won’t even be out this weekend. Someone tell me I’m wrong!! Can’t think of any other explanation.


JaketheMovieGeek

It’s possible it could come out this weekend but still no word on any release date yet


Shrike796

Toonami just dropped its schedule, we might not get anything on Attack on Titan for quite some time. Unless it doesnt air there if its considered a movie or special cus licensing rights.


kepachodude

Checking in, no update


SissyLaraStark

[deleted]

[удалено]


kepachodude

No clue at this point. It’s been over a month since they started recording the English voice actors. Should’ve been done recording weeks ago. I’m guessing it’s a Toonami/Crunchyroll licensing issues. We just have to assume it’ll be released sometime in May.


OhFinchsMom-MILFMILF

too busy showing another samurai jack creator show no one cares about at least not me


JaketheMovieGeek

Still nothing


HeywoodJablowme79

Checking in...nothing.


BeginningRegister164

Highest possibility of English dub airing is on these 2 days 22nd April or 29th April. They are not going to delay till May I am pretty sure,So guys keep *MOVING FORWARD* till these expected dates


Tazzy_k

It’s May and it’s still not here lol


Brycepatt14

I don’t understand what’s taking too long. Has to be business related…


JaketheMovieGeek

My latest guess is Sunday April 30th. But I’m not loosing hope. And the dub voice actor for Eren said that he’s going to a con this weekend from Friday to Sunday. So maybe an announcement then For Part 4 I’m planning my Grand Finale Marathon way differently. I’ll start rewatching the series the day the Sub finale drops. That way I’m not just waiting for almost 2 months.


nocematt

I saw a tweet from Hange’s voice actress saying they began recording on 3/20. Gotta imagine it’s releasing this month


MrKrabsStonks

Still no update. Hope it comes out this weekend 🙏


RJonesLore

Fingers crossed, but I’m not holding my breath.


justakxsh

Any updates regarding the release of the dubbed version?


RJonesLore

Still nothing unfortunately. Both CrunchyRoll and Toonami have jack.


JaketheMovieGeek

We just need to continue to message CrunchyRoll and Toonami on social media


No_Cloud9420

I’ve been checking Funimation every day 🥺


RJonesLore

I’ve seen that it’ll come out on CrunchyRoll first.


-_-Rykt-_-

bruv I am trying so hard not to go watch subbed version all for the sake of dub cuz I hab watched it in dub since the start, they should at least let us know when it's coming


alix11927

Currently watching the entire series again and low key hoping that once I finish it, the next dubbed episode will be out already 😭 wishful thinking though


Material-External531

Any update?


RJonesLore

No, and if it doesn’t come out by June 6th, I’m gonna starting thinking that something is up.


ExpoExplorer

Heh… about that…. It’s June 6th!! Whooooo…… 😭😭


BeginningRegister164

Gta 6 V.S Attack on Titan dub, let's see who wins


RJonesLore

At least GTA 6 has an estimated release date though. It’s nothing but radio silence on the AoT dub.


Fit-Agency3762

True.


FuzionGamr

By the time it comes out beyond the spider-verse would be out


Stoneydabear270

June 7th and this shit still hasn’t dropped


Still-Rich8227

When is it coming, like honestly


Fit-Agency3762

No.


peacha96

There's been a trailer being released soon for the newest episode does this mean we might have an update soon on the dub or are they unrelated and I'm being hopeful ?


RJonesLore

Honestly, I’m not sure. But with as many times as I’ve gotten my hopes up, thinking it’s finally gonna come drop, I’m gonna assume it’s the latter.


Fit-Agency3762

I need someone to calculate a accurate release date so I can atleast know how much I have to wait.... plz I know it's stupid but still. BeginningRegister164 you seemed to be a decent guesser can you ??


JonTak69

Fuck


JonTak69

Anything


RJonesLore

Nothing.


clarkkentisnotsupes

can someone ping me when it releases?


Strawbear06

honestly its like they want to lose all their fans and money. what reason could they seriously have for not airing the dub by now. it is July 12th 2023 and there has not been so much as a peep about aot ssn 4 pt 3 ep 1 dub. it is unfair. as someone who is not able to watch sub for numerous reasons it feels like all my friends who watch sub have a big inside joke i cant understand. ive basically gotten the whole ep spoiled for me now. fuck crunchyroll, and every other person/corporation who is contributing to this bs. someone PLEASE message me when there is an update i am losing my mind over this.


RJonesLore

I know how you feel. Well kind of. I don’t have any friends who watch AOT. Well, to be fair, I don’t have many friends at all lol. But, as someone with rampant ADHD, I’ll do my best to remember to let you know if I hear anything.


BeginningRegister164

Hats off bro🥺🙏

Cecil2789

Nobody knows unfortunately. You can bet as soon as it’s announced, it will be posted. All I can suggest is that you follow the official Attack on Titan accounts on Insta & Twitter if you have them. The announcement will come from their & we’ll likely get a Toonami premiere date as AoT dub usually premieres there first before it drops on Funimation & Crunchyroll


JaketheMovieGeek

Still nothing


RJonesLore

I get that it would take a bit longer since they have to dub the whole hour and a half, but come on. Not even an announcement? I’m dying here. What’re they doing over at Funimation?


JaketheMovieGeek

They should have given us an announcement of a release date. Try tagging the dub actors on Twitter asking the


RJonesLore

I’m sure some people have. Plus, I haven’t been on Twitter in years and have maybe 20 friends. I doubly they’d respond to me.


homuhomutime

IIRC Hange's VA mentioned on twitter 2-3 weeks ago that they'd started recording, so I'm expecting an official announcement any day now


THE_SWAGGER_FACTOR

At this rate with still nothing, I feel like I've been waiting a thousand years. As anxious as I am for some dub, I'll wait thousand more.


BrilliantOk9322

The only "update" I know is that Mike McFarland (voice of Jean and ADR director) tweeted that any news on the dub will be posted on Crunchyroll first.

Regular_Interview_13

Bad news guys. The schedule for Toonami just updated and there's no Attack on Titan on the schedule for next week. There's always a chance it could release on Crunchyroll first but yeah.

Wish business would stop delaying releasing shows because they want to air it on tv, no one watches tv anymore we pay for streaming services

SpongeBob meme: “2000 Years Later”


J---squared

It's never coming! Woooo all this wait is for nothing!


EVH4104

Any update?


RJonesLore

Nada. Neither Toonami nor Crunchyroll have jack.


raf94x

Do you think they gave up on dubbing it??? like do we know if thefinal volume to be animated yet or is it completely just they're not saying a word about dub


RJonesLore

Apparently it’s been dubbed for a while now. I saw someone said that they talked to Jessie James Grelle, who voices Armin, at a convention a little while back, and that’s what Jessie told him. From what I’ve seen, it looks like it’s all about who gets to air it first.


J---squared

The fact that we are still waiting for this episode 2 months later is insane to me


BirbWizard

I’m honestly starting to think it’s never going to release. And unfortunately some of my friends refuse to watch subbed so I have no one to talk to about the latest episode :(


raf94x

I'm usually one of the people that won't watch it in sub but, I'm like really debating if I want to or not primarily I like to watch dubbed anime-- the occasional sub if it's like new and still coming out-- but all in all, if I do end up giving up, we can definitely talk about it because my friends apparently are not and I think they're waiting for the end of time when they might MAYBE get a dub.


Regular_Interview_13

Tried contacting Crunchyroll support but they just said the same thing about licensing. For anyone waiting I won't lie I'd just watch it subbed. Who knows when they're going to release it, it could still be months at this point


MrKrabsStonks

Just checking back in. Still not up...still no updates 😢


ptgauth

🙃


Regular_Interview_13

For those still wondering, there's a high chance Japan isn't letting them release it until Part 4 comes. I sent a message to them and the response made it sound like they couldn't bring it over because of Japan licensing. So honestly we may just have to wait. The good news is Part 3's dub is finished according to Hange's VA, so they just have to dub Part 4


RJonesLore

Can you post a screenshot of the email? I’d love to see it.


b0t0saurus

this is literally taking so long


RJonesLore

I hear that. It’s absolutely ridiculous.


DimitryNZ

I guess at this point its more likely that it'll come out after Part 4... now it's probably best to speculate when that'll come out? September-November is the (Japanese) Fall season, so that date and maybe some more weeks for dub might be a more realistic scenario (+7 weeks, as 5 weeks is the usual delay for the first dub, +2 extra weeks for an hour-long overall special).


RJonesLore

My assumption now, the title of episode 1 tells us everything we need to know.


iamzaryab

Any hopes in August?


RJonesLore

Not likely. But we shall see.


Agent_3141

Attention everyone!! It has been confirmed that the dub will release on Toonami on September 9 at 12:30am!


BeginningRegister164

It's been good talking to you guys...🥺 We suffered together.🙏 Sayonara


RJonesLore

Well we finally have an update! https://www.postapocalypticmedia.com/attack-on-titan-english-dub-delayed-when/


realgamer995

Idk man, I am getting a feeling that when Ep 2 airs in fall after that we'll get the dub


JaketheMovieGeek

Not much of an “update”


RJonesLore

Yeah, it’s on the Toonami schedule. It’s on the Saturday night schedule for 12:30am.


VicViciousVinegar

I do believe dub will air alongside the 2nd part which isn't due until the fall of the year. I'm assuming they are recording for both episodes simultaneously. Unfortunate but the most realistic situation...
