Ookami-san has no season 2 in Japan and I believe it aired a couple of years ago so it's unlikely it'll get one.

Shana has three seasons. Season 2 should be out (dubbed, but with a different voice cast, unfortunately) December 18 on DVD/BD. The OVAs and movie are set to be released January 22. Season 3 doesn't have a release date yet.

FUNi should put up some sample dub episodes soon (if they haven't already). You could check it out and see if the dub still works for you.

The main reason they would've changed the cast is because they wanted to cut costs by dubbing in-house. Since Shana was originally dubbed by another company, getting the old voices back would've cost them more money. I still think that they should've kept the originals simply because it's weird to hear one person voice a character then have it switch to another. Here's the ANN page for the cast announcement.

Fire Flys pretty much got ya covered. As to anyotehr Slice of life and romace series to come. Its just gunna depend on if funi finds a series of that type to be profitable to them or not. Sentai has pretty much been the company to go after them types. But they have left them as sub only.

I understand what you mean. It is difficult to hav e to hear 2 diffrent VAs for a show. But really its not so bad. And as Firefly said it looks like you can view some of the eps for Season 2 to see/hear the new voices. http://www.funimation.com/shakugan-no-shana/episodes?page=3

A romance/slice of life anime you may like is Say I Love You. It's currently streaming on Crunchyroll.

I am sure it cost sentai a hell of a lot more to dub Personal 4 and K-on with original casts but continuity is important. Look at the length of time inuyasha final act took and caused 2 major characters to be voiced by new actors. I guess when they weighed it they figured it would sell close to or just as good with a new cast. The only positive I can say is funimation does an outstanding job on their in house dubs so I am sure it will be good, but still when looking at owning a set it kind of ruins it for me. As always though I will have faith and reserve judgment until I hear it.

as for slice of life/romance I really recommend Anohana, NIS is selling it. Although it may be hard to find, last I heard it was selling out quick and NIS was not going to make more of them.
