User blog comment:Lemursrule/New Bleach Promo + New dub voices/@comment-1351982-20100824023957

I think they only reason for the double episodes was for WB to speed up the dvd releases and shove out more merchandise. However dubbing an episode of bleach in english takes A LOT LONGER to produce. It takes about 2-3 days to record everyone's lines(thats not including mixing, re-mixing, and voice effects) for a single episode,while in Japan it is done as original animation, which only takes about 4 hours to record a few episodes. The Amagai filler arc is only 20 episodes, there WAS NO WAY IN HELL they could record 20 episodes in 2 months. So for now I think it will just be single episodes until episode 190, by that time they will have recorded more than enough episodes to cover themselves for atleast 5 months. I have been hearing from a few VAs from the show they are recording episodes 196, 197 and 198 this week. So by the time the filler arc ends(presumedly in late January, early February) they will have recorded to at least episode 225.
