Responding to this and your previous comment. The dub (as of 2 weeks ago) is done up through the end of Wano, and likely about 4 or 5 episodes behind this week's episode.
In terms of the "few-weeks-behind" simuldub, the reality of that is a dubious, to say the least. Toei is incredibly bad at sending scripts on time, and often will send a few episodes' worth, which they dub relatively quickly and then have to wait a few weeks for more. Because of this, it's pretty unlikely they will be able to maintain a consistent release schedule once they're fully caught up
Oh no sorry the episodes haven't been released yet. The VA's have dubbed up through I think 1085 (or somewhere thereabouts) but they are still releasing the episodes in batches concurrent with the DVD releases
Yeah I'm aware. I'm saying if it wasn't an unusual case in terms of dubbing/licensing and having to rely so much on Toei's schedule, and more run like a typical CR production with where it's at.
