Earlier today, North American anime distributor Sentai Filmworks informed press outlets that their upcoming release of Persona 4 The Animation on Blu-ray will not include the original Japanese audio dub lowering their original MSRP from $69.98 to $59.98. Fans of the series who still want to hear the Japanese dub will have to settle for the DVD version which will include both tracks in addition to Japanese episode commentary. The English version will feature the original voice actors from the PlayStation 2 title including Yuri Lowenthal and Michelle Ann Dunphy.

Press release below:
