HIDIVE revealed the English dub cast for Urusei Yatsura Remake recently.
https://twitter.com/HIDIVEofficial/status/1630280874942971905?s=20

Jade Kelly as Lum
Nathan Wilson as Ataru
Cat Thomas as Shinobu
Jack Stansbury as Mendo
Brianna Roberts as Sakura
John Swasey as Cherry

What I like about the Japanese cast is that they're all high-profile voice actors who are also fit for the job. Bit of a shame that HIDIVE/Sentai couldn't replicate that. But we'll see how they sound very soon.

The dub of Urusei Yatsura Remake will start airing on Wednesday, March 1, 2023, which is a lot sooner than I expected.

Before you start saying stuff like "why dub" it's because it's basically tradition for Rumiko Takahashi anime to receive dubs. Without dubs, Ranma 1/2 and Inuyasha wouldn't be half as popular as they were. And it's those dubs that introduced a generation of fans to anime.

Urusei Yatsura kind of has an ill fate with dubs. For example, the original AnimEigo dub being canceled only after 2 episodes because of poor quality, and the entire Animax dub of the original anime being lost media. Hopefully, this dub fares better.

Bravo, couldn't have said it any better. And the italian dub of the OG UY anime was really good (the adaption/translation maybe not so much, but nevermind :) another era afterall !)

I probably won't watch the dub, but I'm interested in checking it out. I did watch Inuyasha and Ranma dubbed though since you mentioned them, I think it works better for those 2.

Watched the dub 1st episode. Disappointed. Not sure whether it's the directing or the choices of Lum and Ataru's voices or both, but I'm disappointed.

Yeah, it’s just standard anime dub unfortunately. Worst part is the official subs probably suffered for the dub script. As the subs were based on the dub scripts it seems.

Watched the first episode. Not too bad, but the complete lack of Lum's signature "dawwwling!!" is honestly criminal
