Hey! I made a cool game! It's called "I poisoned half the food, so if you eat you might die!" Have a taco.

And the show's just hitting the halfway point in Japan too.

My guess is that this is a classic example of rolling the dice - taking a new property and seeing if you can run with it or not. I have no idea whether or not the series is good (anybody seen a fansub?) but one would assume that it has a chance of success if it shares the game's quality.

I've seen the fansub.. and it was pretty good.. But the fact that I was hearing japanese voices was constantly driving me crazy.

I honestly believe that if they don't get the original voice actors for this (which I doubt), the english version may by just unbearable for me

Eh. The voices for the games are mostly done by voice actors for traditional cartoons. The chances of Geneon getting the original VAs aren't too high.

Geneon has really been getting greedy lately, taking anime titles left and right. 2 big problems I have with them is that they overprice their dvds and don't make their subtitles good enough, both of which are really annoying.
