The Korean premiere revealed that they are planning an official Korean dub, which if you’ve tuned in to their Youtube channel before, you’ve already heard a preview of some of them (timestamp for Korean Shaw). They also released “Crack in the Ark” for the anniversary!
The anime’s key visual – Prelude to Dawn – as well as Ace’s voice actor (!), played by Takashi Matsuyama, was also revealed. In that case, Scout, besides the key Reunion members, are likely receiving voices as well.
