Notes
- This is Chris Edgerly, James C. Mathis III, Bumper Robinson, Jalen K. Cassell, Bill Butts, Ryan Colt Levy, Anairis Quiñones, Mela Lee Patrick Seitz and Keone Young's First anime dub at SDI Media.
- It's also Mela Lee's 2nd anime series she didn't record at Bang Zoom! Entertainment since Cannon Busters at NYAV Post in 2019.
- Sean Rohani replaced Benjamin Diskin as Shiva in Season 2, likely due to Ben not feeling comfortable voicing people of color.
- Alejandro Saab replaced Mike Haimoto as Sōji Okita and Hoteison from episode 22 onwards due to domestic abuse allegations on Mike in February of 2023.
- Likewise, Saab also replaced McKenzie Atwood as Zerofun, for unknown reasons.
