Rick and Morty: The Anime Teases English Dub Release

Rick and Morty's anime spin-off is teasing its own English dub!

By Nick Valdez

Rick and Morty: The Anime will soon be introducing a full anime spin-off of the massively popular Adult Swim animated franchise, and the anime has teased that it will be getting an English dubbed release as well! Rick and Morty started taking fans by surprise with the debut of special anime shorts that imagined a different Rick and Morty out in the multiverse challenged with various anime ideas and settings. These shorts continued to major success, and are now being fleshed out into a full anime series now in the works for a release with Adult Swim and Max later this year. 

When Rick and Morty: The Anime was first announced, it was also surprisingly revealed that like the shorts, the full anime series would be releasing with Japanese audio and English subtitles. But it seems like there might still be an English dubbed release for the new series as when asked by a fan on social media, Jason DeMarco, Senior Vice President, Anime and Action Series/Longform at Warner Bros. Animation, Cartoon Network Studios, revealed that there would be a dubbed release for the anime as well. But as of now there are no concrete details for that potential release, naturally.
