I can't watch Simpsons in english because I started watching that when I was a kid in german and I'm so used to the german voices. Pretty much everything else just feels better in english if it's an english production (except for movies with Bruce Willis, his german voice is bad ass). It's just the same with anime just that the originial language isn't english here. No big deal. I prefer swedish in TV when I'm visiting my relatives there as well. Thought it's like that for everyone and everything. | ||

Seiyuu otaku are extremely weird and seiyuu (idol in general) culture is pretty fucked up. Thank you, aside from one of the more prolific ones I dont really get why its necessary to differentiate between the assembly line i.e childish seiyuu voice.. | ||

And honestly half of Japanese voice actors have really off putting voices, so I don't understand what's with putting down dubs when I can imagine that Japanese voice actors can be just as bad. It just so happens that one can be ignorant about whether or not their voices are bad. I'm not saying that all dubs are bad. On July 30 2013 07:33 EchOne wrote: ZNF is right. Japanese VAs can be ugh terrible, and English VAs can be epic. It all depends on the money and talent that production gets a hold of for that part of the show. Yeah, that's the thing though (see Souma's post before yours). Just out of interest, can you name some examples of bad Japanese voice acting?

Like others have mentioned, VAs hired for dubs just tend to not be high quality. It's not to say english voice actors couldn't voice anime as well, it's just in general the good ones aren't hired. | ||

I think a lot of the time its more a combination of "I saw it in Japanese 1st and for some reason I don't think the English voice fits the character" and "Oh. My. God. THATs how they chose to translate that line?" Other then that it just seems like Japanese VA tend to take the job more seriously and it seems like they enjoy it more then the english ones because they deliver their lines with more passion. | ||

I think I actually just disliked the flight mode, it seemed to use that a lot. Idk it seems awesome in that vid. But I got the Normal because I like wings.

From what I've heard, while voice acting is actually a thing in Japan, most of the people who end up dubbing your average not-so-good dub are failed actors. Or something. | ||

It would be like Leonardo Dicaprio acting with Michael Cera with Cera in the lead role. Oh my ears, they hurt just remembering... | ||
