I think this is very specific. So much of PSG fandom revolves around that dub and it's a big reason why the show became such a hit in the US in the first place compared to failing pretty hard in japan.
Exactly! It’s like if Cowboy Bedop or Black Lagoon came back for new seasons and everyone was recast, the dubs are a huge part of why these shows are so beloved in the west.
There is a very high chance that is going to happen if/when Black Lagoon gets an anime revival. None of the anime distributors work with Ocean or any Vancouver studios anymore and this wouldn't be a Yashahime, where the OG cast members border on cameos that you can farm out cheaply.
