Freezing the Review (FUNImation dubbed)

O.k. the day Freezing finally comes out, two days later review time. I have to say it good. The Blu Ray/dvd box that it comes in is good, it's not the cheap cardboard that I have seen on One Piece boxes. It's a nice glossed box to hold the Blu Ray and dvd cases. the cases themselves are good the sleeves have to different images when you open the case it have a more risque image. The discs themselves are kind of plain they don't really have too much on them the Blu Ray has a nice blue and the dvd is a nice red but other than that there really isn't anything to look at. the preorder image booklet is good too, but it's not something you want to display to everyone, if you know what I mean :). Overall I thing that FUNimation did well with the box.

Now on to the series. Before I say anything else I would like to  stay that I like the dub even though what I will say is not so great about it. When I first watched it I thought that Kazuya's voice was a bit to deep compared to his Japanese  voice dub. Rana was also the same for me because when I heard it, it was a bit I don't know not like how Rana would sound I would have thought that they could have chosen a voice actress with a bit higher voice, but that's my own opinion.
Before when I was watching this in Japanese it was good even though they couldn't really pronounce the names and the things that weren't Japanese. I was really glad when I saw that FUNimation dubbed it because I would be able to hear the correct pronunciations. When I actually heard them though the way that they said the stuff was a bit off to me. Not wrong but it just had a weird sound to them. Even with the problems I have with the dub I still like how they dub, I still might cringe when I heard them say Ereinbar Set set and the names, but does not really deter me from the anime. I found it fun to watch.


Usually when I watch an anime I like to rate it. So, I would rate this anime on a scale of 1 to 10 based on its content, art,  and just how much I liked it. But also, since it is an English dubbed I'll rate it on the dubbing also

Content I would give it an 7 because the story was good and it stuck to the manga pretty well from what I have seen. My problem is that the story is not continued because even better stuff happens after words.
For the art I would give it a 10 for the great coloring and shadowing giving it the feeling of a older anime, but also giving it that new feel.

For just how much I liked it I would give it a 10 because for me personally I really love the series even though it's short.

Lastly the dubbing. In my thought process I don't think English dubs are bad. For freezing I felt they could have done better, but it was still good so I'll give it a 7.5.


The average combined score is  a 8.6 out of 10 for its content art, likability, and quality of the dub. So if you were thinking of buying it I would recommend it.
