The 1st season's ones felt more different. These are kind of the generic transformation scenes but more tight leather ass I guess. The noise also look more "noisey" but still give off those creepy sexual sounds when dying. edit: Oh they change between the types. Anyway this show is too cool. Swan song is still gives me the chills. The transformations in S1 were a result of having no budget, so they just did a real lazy transformation scene that hardly even qualifies as one. G they actually do a good job with them since they have a lot more $$$. They upgrade Chris' fluffiness by a lot in G. Such best Gundam. | ||

The transformations look really pretty and nice, I just liked the "uniqueness" of the low budget one. Chris is so cute man just want to pat her head. | ||

I wonder how much of your actually stems from being a native english speaker instead of being a native japanese speaker. I also think you are wrong about "every anime dub in existence is shit". The ghibli movie ones for example are really good. I prefer them over the sub. But you may want to hate-rant about them, too, so go ahead. | ||

Dubs that are good need actual voice actors that are passionate about their jobs. A-list actors who try to put emotion into their works for instance in many or some disney/pixar/w/e animated films do an amazing job. But you're not getting that kind of quality, or even a fraction of that quality in an anime dub 99% of the time. If I think I can do a better job with no voice acting experience than the dub, that's a bad, bad thing. And I have a shit voice with no natural talent for it. But I'm pretty sure I can do a better job than a super high % of male... and hell probably female VA's on these anime. | ||

It's nearly impossible to match graphics with voice and keep the all the nuance, kinda like how translated song / poem always sounds super awkward no matter how well it's done. I think there are good dubs. They are far inbetween but they exist. Most hollywood stuff in german sounds good, Simpsons/Futurama sounds good in german as well. Unless you know the original voices and are creeped out because they're just so very different it's not bad at all imo. But those are the few examples where you actually have a base of people who are all trying to get the job, who are all trying to be good at it and thus you end up with some kind of competition and decent VAs because the movie/show is actually considered to be something "decent" and probably pays decently as well. Anime VAs that aren't japanese just don't have that I'd assume. Who gives a fuck about a "kids show" like that that's going to be aired 3am on some channel noone even knows about. Of course it's going to sound just like cheap porn if it's treated like that. And yes, there might be some rare exceptions inbetween as well but even if that's the case, you just don't have the same quality that comes from hundres of people trying to get the same job and actually giving their best because the competition is just that harsh. | ||

Baccano / Cowboy be-bop and w/e else. I'd still consider them pretty inferior. | ||

I don't really care about the whole dub vs sub thing. Think you watching an inferior product but meh you can do what you want. I do get pissed at people that go push dubs out of the blue just because they can when the conversation/discussion has nothing to do with it. | ||

I'll figure out again when and where and I'll watch that ![]() Almost anything would be better then the english dub of DxD. Jesus its sooo bad, and so are 97.4% of all dubs. I can count on my hands the number of dubs I liked. Every time I check out a dub just out of curiosity it just is bad. I am sure there are some out there that are good but otherwise Nope. | ||

As usual I'm surrounded by Chris lovers. Well, not surprising. I like both S1 and S2 transformation scenes, I think an S1 style transformation scene that is a tiny bit longer/more expensive with a better background than whatever they had in S1 would've been great. But, I think you will like Chris' transformation scene. | ||

You can't even defend the anime anymore the studio has officially pushed any possible defense of the show off a cliff. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + The vessel looking for a new heart reminded me of Princess Mononoke. This episode has some nice looking effects as usual for the series. | ||

So I respect your choice for best grill (since she is really cool), but its only natural for one to be surrounded by fans of the real best grill. | ||
