World Trigger: + Show Spoiler +
Nice fighting. Good idea to go out of trigger mode. But honestly, such a tease to end at 7 seconds. I swear if next episode doesn't cover those 7 seconds... -_-;;;

Testie is such a hater. I don't even know whether he is being serious or not anymore. lol

When I chose dubs over subs than it's because of:

1. I like the english voices more and/or think the japanese voice don't fit the characters.

2. The english VA's are doing a good job.

Pretty easy. I honestly don't get this religious fanatism when it comes to japanese VA's.



It's not religious fanaticism. It's just that the quality is seriously like the difference between night and day in the voice actors themselves. You don't get any raw emotion ever from an english VA on any anime, ever.

I dare you to find a clip that has this level of raw emotion in a mans voice.
I will run through every single tone of their voice if you need to. Not to level that some of them sound like old men rather than teenagers. Some are fucking teamsters in new york or something.
The disgusting dub that is pure cringe worthy. Every moment, another cringe. The scenes literally make me feel bad for the show creators, the actors themselves, and the audience watchers.
+ Show Spoiler +



The greatness. The pure greatness.
+ Show Spoiler +

Listen to Sunohara's epic scream when he kicks the bastard. That's raw.

This is the difference between greatness. A guy who is passionate about his job. And a guy who sounds like 'yeah ok i'm too cool to do this job - he clearly isn't - but I'm getting paid to be here'. You can hear it.

Do not make me go through any other dub. I will tear every word of every sentence apart and show you how the voice is wrong, the intonation is wrong, and holy shit it's just worse on every level. Watching english dubbed anime feels awkward as fuck "how can I watch this garbage".

I'll go ahead and call bullshit on that. Firstly, it is religious fanaticism. "Oh, it's not religious fanaticism, but here's why Christianity is the only correct religion and Islam (for example) is incorrect in every possible way and if you're Islamic you're wrong" is exactly how you sound like. Clannad's dub is hated by pretty much everyone I know, myself included, so you can't just give that one example and say OMG all dubs are shit. What makes you think that English VAs aren't passionate about their jobs? I've met plenty and I can tell that they are probably just as passionate about their jobs as their Japanese counterparts (never met any of them since they don't come to Texas). You say you probably can do better + Show Spoiler +

I won't hate rant about everything, but most.

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.

then go apply for Funimation or Sentai Filmworks and prove you're better. This isn't Brood War or HoN, you're not better than the great majority of the people who are professional at it. You say you won't go through any other dub, which makes me think you know if you do, you're going to be proven wrong on at least one if not more dubs unless you just force your elitist views and automatically discredit the dubs because that's the easy thing to do. I'll name some random anime that I've watched in Japanese and English and you tell me why the dubs are so bad since you're a fucking expert on voice acting. Pick whatever ones you want. The Devil Is a Part-Timer, Raildex series, Death Parade, Eureka Seven, Darker than Black, Ergo Proxy, Eve no Jikan, Full Metal Panic, Eden of the East, Kino's Journey, Mushishi, Spice and Wolf, Ouran High School Host Club, Ghibli movies, Wolf Children, Summer Wars, and The Girl Who Leapt Through Time

Holy shit nothing makes me saltier than elitists of anything. Jesus I wish my random comment about Ping Pong didn't start this shitfest (and yet here I am continuing it), it's amazing how if I don't think fully about the implications of what I say, people will argue for hours about the most pointless shit (just like what I'm doing right now).

Good stuff, it's in English. I'd also like to use this space for something positive to counter my upcoming negativity. Apparently one guy translated the entire Legend of the Galactic Heroes series, something like 110 episodes and a few movies, and I think he is truly an awesome person.

I don't think dubs will catch up because no country has the infrastructure or money invested into voice acting as much as japan has. This is purely a matter of numbers. Dubs can be acceptable if you really want a localized experience (might as well watch original english shows at that point but w/e.) but the majority of them are inferior because no country will take or invest in it as much as japan has.

Like how anime is not very experimental right now because there is no reliable money coming in :^)


i don't think going AO is bad for HS DXD but i don't see the point of this arc. People say it's so Raynare doesn't come out of nowhere in volume 10 and the doubt in Rias's and Issei's relationship would be setup but i'm not seeing it so far in this arc.

Hataraku maou sama/the devil is a part-timer dub seems decent to me. MC's voice is surprisingly good, Ashiya's voice is decent (his voice in the original wasn't really outstanding either, just a sidechar after all), translations are funny and Sent would probably hate that kind of liberal translation but I don't really mind it. Emi's voice seems to be missing something whenever she's caught offguard. The whole tsundere thing is losing something that way if she's nonstop on that cool voice and doesn't actually lose her shit like in the original when the cop caught them with the knife and thinks they're a couple. I wouldn't call her bad by any stretch though, still way on the good side. Hikasa was just way better.

Only watched like one and a half episode dubbed just now though, maybe it gets better later but I wouldn't call that a bad dub.

I did not like Maou-sama's dub at all and thought it was pretty off. I did like Ouran Host Club's dub though and Spice and Wolf's was solid too.

You don't remember the baddie from S1? She was a pretty big deal.

Pretty much all Sidonia eps are good btw.

Well no I somehow don't remember her. I also didn't mean to say the other episodes were bad, but tbh I found some of the latest epiosdes a bit boring. They were still not bad though, except if you despise the character CGI.

She was the red guana who took on the appearance of the girl the MC liked back in S1. The one they had so many problems with.

Given this anime is a drama, I totally expect things to go for the worse starting next week. Especially since Isla wrote that she wants to spend another day like this one. Would be so fitting if she cannot. Well, this anime is just about a cute relationship lately, nothing truely interesting.

The dub is completly different from the original when it comes to how they want them to sound, yes. That's probably what you mean by "it was pretty off". It's not trying to mimic the original at all. But it's a good one imo. Just still not as good as the original.

Always amuses when people like to shit talk the English VA's when they're the exact same people who are in almost every video game that's made nowadays.

I feel like Disney did a good job of dubbing the Studio Ghibli movies. I think the dubbing for Akira is also decent. I try to stay away from dubs for everything else though.

I started watching Rainbow lately...on episode 11 after 2 days. It's fantastic...I wish I didn't have to go to work in the morning so I could finish it.
Not sure if it's popular or not, but if the quality is maintained up to the end, it's going to be a 10/10 anime for me.
