Don't watch dubs you dirty pleb.

Any anime that has non-Japanese (Western) characters tend to benefit greatly from dubs I've found, like Baccano, Black Lagoon, Bebop, etc.


No, you're just wrong and need to have your ears cleaned. Just because those dubs barely pass as acceptable doesn't mean they hold a candle to their vastly superior counterparts.

What the. All three are great, but the last two are especially good since Baccano added American accents to anime set in America 1930s and Black Lagoon they speak English so we're spared from the horrible Engrish segments in the Japanese version.

Voice preference is also an issue Goku's voice is deeper in the dub of DBZ which I prefer and grew up listening to.

Steins Gate I vastly prefer Daru's english voice which sounds normal vs nasally fat guy stereo type. Plus Funimation did a great job of localizing it even the Japanese to English specific jokes.

I don't remember thinking about this while reading the ln. In the end of episode 11 where Hayato and Hachiman are talking and Hayato says how Yukino has changed a little and that shes no longer chasing her older sister, he doesn't really look that happy when saying that. After that he says "But that's all". Am I right to think that he means shes not chasing after her sister but instead now shes "chasing" after Hachiman like how Yukino's older sister always tells her that shes always relying on other people. I'm actually not sure so I want to hear what other people think about the meaning behind Hayato's words.


Also this is such an awesome picture

I took it as yukinon chasing after establishing herself. Being comfortable with who she is and being her own person. I don't think hayama is talking about anything romantic in that conversation

I actually do think hayama was implying something romantic because he asked hikigaya after "Haven't you realized?" and I'm sure he means haven't you realized that yukino likes you and that she changed because of you.

wtf just happened this week? why the fuck did they just completely ignore the fact that yukinon was forced to meet her mom, wtf was this running thing they did? Did I sleep for a week and dl'd a later episode? I literally had to go back after the opening to make sure the ep numbers were in the right order.

I don't think there's ever been any character of any movie, TV show, anime, game, or whatever that has, to me, been as good as Wenge Kong from Ping Pong the Animation is.

I've found that English dubs generally fail when it comes to middle school/high school series, are generally decent to good at most everything else, and excel at anything that's specifically American/European or has an "international" character set.

Discounting all the trash that was made in the 90's and very early 2000's, of course. And all the kids' shows that have been localized to hell.
Average means I'm better than half of you.

I don't mind Male voices in English dubs but generally find female voices are just worse. They don't have the spectrum that most really good female Jap VAs have so going from insanely cute to dam right terrifying isn't something you hear in dubs. Generally feel like there's less "emotion" in the few "good" dubs I've watched. I wouldn't willingly rec any dub or watch any dub over sub personally. Maybe one day when voice acting is as good or when the money put into voice acting as equivalent.

edit: Jojo is so fucking good. That OP.

One time I accidentally put on the dub when I was watching Steins Gate and from that moment on I wished I was deaf.

I would probably recommend the Ghost Stories dub over the sub, but that's a special case. Just speaking personally, I've preferred the dubs of Bebop, Yu Yu Hakusho, and the Ghibli movies. Maybe Berserk as well, but no one really cares about the anime series.

Well I finished the series! Overall I thought it was good though I didn't like the 7th movie. Some of the philosophy was way off in my opinion but they talked about some interesting stuff. Had some Buddhist themes which I don't have much familiarity with though I found it interesting. I also liked the concept of False Truths and acting on misconceptions in the 6th movie. The best philosophical episode IMO. The 5th movie was my favorite as it was for many others. Just well made overall.

I guess the logical reason for all the killings associated with Shiki ends up being that she isn't the one doing them! Though she is still crazy even if she isn't a serial killer. She is a great character don't get me wrong, but not someone I would want to be close to. She is quite the badass when fighting at least. Kokutou is pretty crazy too. I think that calling him a better Shirou is pretty accurate. He is idealistic to a fault but isn't a full blown idiot like Shirou. I find it pretty weird that his sister is in love with him. She seems unnecessary for the series overall. I wish the series ended up being a long term series; I think it would potentially be a great one.

The first half of this season seemed pretty weak outside of the first episode, but the last few episodes have been good. This last episode was pretty cute. I find it ironic that Ichijo pushes Shu to confess to their teacher when he doesn't have the balls to confess to a woman who obviously likes him. His whole philosophical thinking this episode was strange I think. If I were Shu I wouldn't have confessed to the teacher. A crush on a teacher as a student will be short lived and would go nowhere anyways.

Well there is less emphasis on Yukinon than I expected. I agree that it was weird that they setup a dilemma with Yukinon seeing her mom then they totally ignored it this episode. Maybe they had second thoughts while producing this episode? It was strange nonetheless. It's interesting what Hayate said near the end. I think it's spot on to suggest she is following Hikigaya because she loves him. When he asked if Hikigaya saw it seemed pretty clear that he was referring to her love with him. This episode was a perfect chance for Hikigaya to kiss Yukinon. He is a fool for not taking the opportunity!

Guess they didn't fight Goliath after all. Maybe it will be a season finale thing. Adding to Bell's harem is more important anyways! Looks like next episode will be a Harem focused episode which I look forward to. It's kind of cute that Bell can't handle attractive women, especially when they are flirty. Though I can see why people would hate his guts for not making moves on his billion fan girls.

When I was a youngster the then-current crop of anime fans weened me off of dubs, even for DBZ. I can't go back.

I'm not sure how the redub of Kai went, but I know in the first FUNi dub the added dialogues/monologues to fill up silence were terrible most of the time, like when Gohan did the SSJ2 thing for the first time. That and the really weird awkward thing Goku says after he does it for the first time. I AM THE HOPE OF THE UNIVERSE blahblah I'm also a mountain hick.

Of course, it's just my opinion,

Iroha knows the ways into Hachiman's heart lol

this is like the nth time that this happened that Yukinon and Yui are so dumbfounded by it lol they need to learn from iroha before Iroha unintentionally steals hachiman(of course Yukinon is gonna win)

They failed to show how grave the fight between Miura + Yukinon was at the earlier scenes. There's so much missing from the episode this is disappointing.

. it's just not the same like the tone of the scene's are not executed properly imo as well as some of the important hachiman monologue could have been inserted(i know there's so many ones but they could have added the important ones that add the power to some scene's) .. now i'm kinda regretting that i read LN (also not love that i read the LN cause i had a fun read)



honestly i am disappointed with this episode everything feels so butchered compared to when i read the LN i was even super hyped for this.. well whatever there's always Ufo to save my week

I found it weird Hikigaya even got flustered in that scene. It was obvious Iroha was just giving an example of how a woman would try to seduce a man and wasn't actually hitting on him. How can the master observer Hikigaya not see the most obvious tease ever?

He saw through it i remember reading where he expressed his standard "i'm too highlevel for this shit" that logic but still admitted any man would fall for that. Also even so Iroha has Lord Hachiman's leash in making him do stuff willingly

evangelion dub is good coz they used proper female voices with real accents instead of the "mickey mouse" voice

i met an anime girl irl who uses that "mickey mouse" voice nonstop and its pretty shit

girls can put on a baby voice if they want, just it sounds nothing like that mickey mouse shit
