| Funimation is worse I actually used to like some Sentai dubs back when I watched dubs, but nowadays dubs in general are just bad. |
 |
| Yeah, mostly everyone can agree that Sentai is bad at dubbing. I dislike almost every dub I've seen from them, so I rarely ever give their stuff a chance. |
 |
| I doubt if the anime itself is even good to begin with. |
| They do have some gems here amd there, such as the DanMachi and Gekkan Shoujo dubs. Their failings normally come from putting Chris Ayres in charge of the script. |
| I thnk the K-ON dub they did is pretty good. Mileage may vary, but you can look up the Animax Asia one at least to hear how bad it could have been. |
| help |
| I honestly never pay attention to who produced a dub, I just judge them on a case by case basis. I know which dubs that I tried I liked and which I couldn't watch, but that's it really. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| I do find them enjoyable enough. I really liked Haikyuu dub. In case, you don't know. Sentai has started their own simuldub program "DubCast", and I'm looking forward to it. |

| https://myanimelist.net/anime/producer/376/Sentai_Filmworks I've finished or seen parts of (the dub of) the following. Angel Beats Kyoukai no Kanata (Beyond the Boundary) Black Bullet Mondaiji (Problem Children) Chaika (and Chaika: Avenging Battle) Canaan Ika Musume Cross Ange Muv-Luv Alternative: Total Eclipse Angelic Layer Infinite Ryvius Someday's Dreamers (Mahoutsukai ni Taisetsu na Koto) You're Under Arrest (Taiho Shichau zo) Also have completely seen the following, but not dubbed. (Crossed-out series are ones with no dub available.) Atelier Escha & Logy AKB0048 + AKB0048 Next Stage Phantasy Star Online 2 Allison & Lillia Leviathan the Last Defense Frame Arms Girl Modern Magic Made Simple Uta~Kata Some of these strike me as Funimation dubs. Can someone tell me which of these were actually dubbed by Sentai Filmworks, as opposed to Funimation or someone else? |
| Avatar character is Gabriel from Gabriel DropOut. |
| Even some dub elitists agree that Sentai Shitworks are terrible at dubbing. That should tell you something |

KawaiiPotato1412 said: When it comes to Sentai Filmworks dubbing, people will say that they will automatically suck. Despite being a dub-watcher myself, it is clear why many people (even some dub lovers) despise most of their dubs. They are not as good as the original Japanese. Barely any dubs are as good as the subbed versions so if that is the reason you or other dub watchers dislike Sentai Filmworks, then you shouldn't be watching dubs in the first place. Yes, I commented on your thread even though I prefer subs. Deal with it. |

| No, Saban is worse than Sentai and slightly worse than 4Kids, just look at what they did to Precure. Outdated name changing of titles and characters, censorship not present in the original, and other sorts of disasters, and worse yet, it got a second season (How? People actually watched that trashfire of a dub?). |

Can someone tell me which of these were actually dubbed by Sentai Filmworks, as opposed to Funimation or someone else? Well, since no one's responding to my question I might as well just continue with the assessment. I enjoyed the dubs of the first four -- Angel Beats, Kyoukai no Kanata, Black Bullet, and Mondaiji. But I think at least a couple of these are Funimation dubs for some reason. I didn't watch Chaika dubbed; but only heard bits of it dubbed. Come to think of it it ought to be in the second list. I'm satisfied with what I've seen of Canaan and Ika Musume. I think Canaan is a Funimation dub though. I enjoyed the dub of Cross Ange. I was a little meh at the dub of Muv-Luv Alt. One particular qualm I had about it was how it pronounced Lt. Cui's name as "Kewie", which is clearly not a Chinese name pronunciation. (She actually does have a proper Chinese name, which is pronounced more like "chúi" (according to Spanish pronunciation notation).) Also I think this is a Funimation dub? Angelic Layer's dub is okay I think. I don't remember enough of Infinite Ryvius's dub or Someday's Dreamers's dub to say much. You're Under Arrest's dub changed around some lines and introduced some new jokes, but they made the show a lot more enjoyable for me, compared to watching it subbed. |

| they did a shit job with higurashi which is probably the reason season 2 will never get dubbed. |

| Central Park Media is the king of dubs. Those Sentai Filmworks people couldn't possibly be as terrigreat as they were. |
| I wouldn't say they're bad exactly but there are better companies like Bang Zoom, NYAV Post, and Funimation. Some of Sentai's dubs I like a lot, others are kinda mediocre. The older dubs from the 90s when they were ADV were much more dodgy than the current ones. |

| I have zero problems with Sentai's dubs. |
| Life Is Short But Intense. |
| Most people seem to say so, but I think they get a little bit too much hate |
| Angel Beats is the only one I'll give them 5 stars on, the rest is meh |
| Sentai’s subs are far worse than their dubs. I groan anytime I see them license anything. |

Arendelle_Gundam said: Of these I've only fully watched the dubs of Angel Beats and Cross Ange but I definitely enjoyed those two.Aside from maintaining the honorifics in some shows I like sentai dubs even ones where they did that it didn't bother me enough to detract from my enjoyment if you want evidence of good sentai dubs here are the ones I like as of july 2020 Is It Wrong To Pick Up Girls In A Dungeon? Gate Heaven's Memo Pad Angel Beats My Love Story!! Campione! Made In Abyss Waiting In The Summer My Teen Romantic Comedy Snafu Cross Ange Tada Never Falls In Love Chaika - The Coffin Princess Domestic Girlfriend Grimoire Of Zero 3D Girlfriend Bodacious Space Pirates Kampfer P.S. For anyone looking to praise Funimation while bashing Sentai I would like to point out the overlap in the voice acting talent David Wald, Jad Saxton, Britney Karbowski, David Matranga, Monica Rial, Bryson Baugus, Austin Tindle, Luci Christian, Shelly Calene-Black and Natalie Rial off the top of my head. |

| I think Sentai has got a lot better with more of their recent dubs for example I think the Made in Abyss dub is fantastic. On the other hand a lot of there older dubs are kinda hit or miss. An older dub I like from them is Clannad I don't think it's bad but a older dub I think is terrible from them is the dub of Nyan Koi. However a problem that a lot of there older dubs suffer from is keeping the Japanese Honorifics like san, chan, senpai, kun, etc. This is a problem that plagues even dubs I like from them it always sounds cringe I'm glad it's a practice that the pretty much stop. But as whole I do think Sentai has improved. |
