Asking because I've heard lots of conflicting opinions on who's better at simulcasting the show. I know HIDIVE has better video quality, but just want to know who been translating the jokes better. Video quality means shit to me if the jokes don't land correctly because of shoddy translations.

Vvvvid.it translations are the best.

Until HIDIVE gets a guest pass system I'm going with Crunchyroll.

I haven't seen both, but they should be identical, since Sentai Filmworks is the one with the license for the series. The other companies with broadcast rights shouldn't be able to change anything.

Since I've posted this I went out and watched both Hidive and Crunchyroll's subs and they're not identical in the least. Crunchyroll also licensed PTE, so their service has their own translation.

I'll note that Hidive's sub has more swearing and is overall ruder (very in line with the show imo) and actually translates Japanese text on screen. But most of the lines are more or less the same between the two services.
