Houston, TX – The highly anticipated English dub for the “Bad Girl” anime, known in Japan as “Baddo Gāru,” is officially set to premiere on HIDIVE. The school comedy series, which originally debuted in Japan in July 2025, will now be available to English-speaking audiences, with the first dubbed episode streaming on October 29, 2025.
The English cast features a lineup of experienced voice actors bringing the quirky characters to life. The announcement has been met with excitement from fans eager to experience Yuu Yutani’s misguided attempts at delinquency in English.
Meet the English Voice Cast
The core cast for the “Bad Girl” English dub includes:
- Yu Yutani voiced by Luci Christian. Yuu is a first-year high school student who is inherently good but tries to act like a delinquent to catch the eye of her idol.
- Atori Mizutori voiced by Kira Vincent-Davis. Atori is the admired disciplinary committee chairman and the “madonna” of the school, the object of Yuu’s affections.
Additional cast members for the English dub will be announced as more episodes are released.
What is “Bad Girl” About?
“Bad Girl” is a school comedy based on the four-panel manga series by Nikumaru. The story follows Yuu Yutani, a diligent and good-natured first-year high school student who attends Fujigasaki Private High School. Despite her perfect attendance and excellent grades, Yuu becomes infatuated with Atori Mizutori, the esteemed head of the school’s disciplinary committee.
In a comical attempt to attract Atori’s attention and affection, Yuu decides to abandon her “good girl” persona and transform into a “bad girl.” The series humorously depicts Yuu’s often-flawed and silly antics as she tries to embody delinquency, leading to a variety of misunderstandings and heartwarming interactions with her classmates, including the eccentric members of the “Atori-sama Daisuki Club” (ADC), or “We Love Lady Atori Club.”
