The Familiar of Zero (Zero no Tsukaima)

So I'm looking for the english dubbed of this anime, and I've looked everywhere. My friend told me it was REALLY good and tells me its "Epic!" I believe him but I need to see if it is "epic" Does anyone know where I can find the dubbed version?

It was licensed and never released. I think it's a Geneon title and they're not releasing anime in the US anymore.

It was far from epic, at least in my opinion... It was just another mediocre harem show to me. Epic is something you'll find in stuff like GaoGaiGar Final, Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, or Hajime no Ippo.

November 4th the Complete Box set of the series will be released at a retail price of $60. I'm glad Geneon failed & is now going through FUNi The box sets arn't $200 anymore

It was dubbed many months ago before the Geneon crisis so it was put on hold for a while. The entire dub cast that I see are young new VA's that have only done a few roles so it should be pretty refreshing if you're the type sick of hearing Wendee Lee & such.
Company is unknown but it seems to be Bang Zoom.

Sounds like you're a fan of giant robot anime J Dude, for those of us who LOVE harem shows and romance anime we've waited a very long time to see Louise.

Season 1 was good, season 2 was ok (except the very very end..which was the beginning of the end for this series imo), and season 3 is epic, horrible, mind numbing failure.

I've been looking forward to seeing this for a while. I hope it sells enough for Funimation to consider licensing the rest of the series. I'm concerned that I'll buy the first season but never be able to see the rest.

I'd rather watch Zero no Tsukaima than any of those shows

Personally, I wanted to see more Siesta and Henrietta . . . .

I think you'd like znt 3 loplop, siesta loses all self respect and sole purpose in the show is to provide maid and other various fanservice..

While I don't hate Siesta or Henrietta at all, all they're doing at this point in season 3 is getting in the way. It's just annoying actually =/

It's too bad, the first 3 or so episodes were really good. I'd rather they kept it like that.

I've been watching the third season. I just wish there was more of Siesta and Henrietta . . . . Siesta is who hooked me on the first season . . . .

The show would be better if they just got rid of Louise and made Siesta the main character

So what exactly is the plot of this show?

I just see fanart of the one girl(Louise?) everywhere.
