KUMA SHOCK! We’re rolling out Phase II of our Broadcast Dubs for this season, so that means it’s time for the Yurikuma Arashi English Cast announcement! If you are familiar with Japanese, then you can kind of guess what this show is about from the title. Yes, friends, it is what you are thinking and there are TONS of artfully/strategically placed lilies to titillate your fancy.
Here’s the synopsis:
After an asteroid explosion and meteor shower lit up the sky over planet earth, strange adorable bears began to attack and devour humans. The earthlings responded with violence of their own, and in the end, a massive barrier – the Wall of Severance– was erected to separate man from bear. This fragile peace lasted until two high school girls encounter a yuri flower blooming – only to be shaken by the piercing warning of the Bear Alarm! Once again, bear and man- or bear and girl -will be pitted against each other in a deadly and mysterious showdown—brought to you buy Kunihiko Ikuhara, the director of Sailor Moon and Revolutionary Girl Utena.

Just letting you know that these Broadcast Dubs really are wonderful. Writing, timing, it’s all up there with the great ideas like toast and television. While not every show might appeal to every fan, the lvl of diversity you people have put into selecting these titles to please as many fans as possible is fantastic!
Fall 2015 saw about 28 anime & FUNImation managed to Broadcast dub about 9-10 so far & that’s not even touching the other titles you acquired for DVD. I think the total is 15/28. A+
I like how you guys put “KUMA SHOCK” on the announcement.
Definitely the strangest anime of the season but it made me want to watch it all the more. Definitely worth a shot for people who haven’t tried it yet
Sweet thank you so much Funimation now I just have to bear the wait until the home video release.
Yay can’t wait. Between Monica, Alexis, and Jamie it’ll be a huge hit, as well as Colleen and the others, can’t see anything wrong with this line up at all
Moka-saaaaaaaaaannnnnn!!!!!
Moka-san is comeback!!
THANK YOU FUNIMATION YOU ARE THE BEST!!!
