Congratulations! Let us know which of the prizes you would like!

Thank you to all who have participated! It was a difficult choice choosing the winners (so much so that corynth even considered doing consolation prizes for everyone - but it just wasn't possible).

Also - we're going to be keeping the fanart thread synokoria.userboard.net/t15-va… open so it can be used in the future as a VO fan art thread.

That’s right - the Let’s Dub of Halloween Otome is complete.

Congratulations to @letsdubproject on this achievement. When we released Halloween Otome, we never expected it to get as much exposure as it did so the thought of people choosing to give voice to our characters was unbelievable. It still is. We want to once again thank you guys for putting in so much time and effort to dub our game. You’ve done an amazing job.

For those who are interested in watching it, the entire playlist of dubbed videos can be found HERE. Please support these amazingly talented and skilled people in doing what they love!

If you’re looking for a specific episode, we’ve also been keeping track of them here.
