It could be as early as mid 2008. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8skGY_6SReI&feature=related This video features an ADR dircctor who I'd expect to know a thing or two. The videos audio is a little hard to hear unless you have headphones so heres a few comments from the video to help you understand what is being said.
MinatoYondaime (1 month ago) so Shppuuden is coming in English in Spring?
dbznarutowarrior (1 month ago) No, what she meant I think was that they are dubbing the fillers starting November/December, and they would get to Dubbing Shippuden in the spring. Usually they are about 2-3 months ahead of what's airing (so approx 20-30 episodes ahead would be a fair guesstimate.
N00BKILLER2000 (6 days ago) when will the shippuuden episodes air??
dbznarutowarrior (5 days ago) It should be airing after the fillers are all done, so if they continue airing 2 episodes per week, Shippuden will start airing right around/on November 22, 2008. I would assume it will most likely air sooner than that, because I know VIZ wants to fly through the fillers, so there will probably be a few extra marathons. I would project it to actually air around September 2008. Just a guess though, hope that helps everyone.
