Define "new dub."

Dub comes out for a show you've previously seen subbed.

This is good news for me, I was interested in the series and prefer the dubs to subs so I'll be checking this out. Thanks for sharing. :)

No problem.

This is rather interesting since most people think Clannad's dub is bad, even dub fans. I myself think it's somewhat mediocre and disappointing from Sentai.


I thought it was actually great. Although I didn't really like this one characters voice, but she was only in one episode so it was alright. Another problem is that they pronounced names wrong here and there. Despite its flaws the dub overall is great and it still made me cry just as much as the Japanese version so Sentai must have done something right also David Matranga's voice for Tomoya is hgggggnnn. I have no regrets for refusing to buy the subbed version and waiting patiently and hopefully for the dub.

I don't have much to say about the Clannad or Madoka dubbed since I've only seen clips of each and it can take a few episodes a VA to ease into their role, but it is true that watching the subbed version first makes a big difference.

Personally I think these are all top-notch dubs, both by translations and voices. There's a lot more I enjoy, but it could just be personal preference in some cases.

Black Lagoon
Golden Boy (more of a joke dub, but it's a comedy, so it makes it even more hysterical)

Couldn't watch it because it kept on saying "Loading" on mine. Guess I won't be watching any anime that is live stream anymore.
Might as well wait until Monday since I pre-ordered the DVD a while back and it's being delivered to me on that day.

So... I didn't really watch the show. I just listened for the voices while reading the stream comments.



ANYWAY.

Kyuubey - Bad. Baaaaaaaadddd. Bad.
Madoka - Really hit and miss. Sometimes, she seems alright. But most of them, no. Her voice got too high at points.
Sayaka - Seems alright. Want to hear more, but I approve for now.
Homura - Undecided. Seems a little better than my first impression, but I'll withhold a final judgment.
Mami - Her voice seems like she's trying to hard; it sounds fake and forced.
Side characters - Good. Especially the teacher and Madoka's brother.

All in all: Will undoubtedly stick with Japanese. Not as terrible as I thought, but still not very good. Not worth watching.

Haters gonna hate. Thank the anime gods that half these dub-haters don't pay for anything, so their opinions don't account for anything.

That being said, I don't know who any of these english VAs are, (I have heard *of* crisvee, but still don't hear any of her work.)

I actually liked the dubbed version. Probably because I never watched the subbed version so I never got used to that.

No matter how good or bad a dub is, if you hear the subbed over and over, you're more likely to hate it just because it's different.
