From hating hack dubs to now appreciating hack dubs.

Are there any recent ones?

I think people look at campy or inaccurate dubs with endearment because they're less of a sterile corporate product. That's as long as the localizer isn't trying to interpret a political angle into the script.

@KABOCHACONSOMME

There's only like....2 on the market right now which are Beyblade (Hasbro makes sure that the dub is edited to hide the fact that the HAsbro releases of the toys are butchered and missing features), and the newer Yu-Gi-Oh shows. You could also argue Pokémon, but they only really make minor visual alterations to remove Japanese text and music these days as they make the show in mind with international audiences due to how big Pokemon has gotten.

@LSSJ_Gaming or the Saban dub of smile precure called glitter force that was released back in 2015.

Somehow, vast majority of anime enjoyers have never liked dubbed shows. Funny enough, they have never been consistent in their feelings towards dubs. How come someone can be so much against localized dubbs when one localized anime is considered as "good" and the other is considered as "bad", while both of them are localized (to smaller or bigger degree), and thus differ from the original Japanese version?

When it comes to weebs, I remember they reacted to the sole existence of them as if it was a war crime to have their favourite Japanese cartoon dubbed in any languege or in any way (classic dubbing or voice-over done by lector or lectors), lol. Or seethed over folks who watched dubbed anime from time to time, or preferred dubs to subs. I didn't notice their stance to change over the years. It's the same as it used to be when talking about anime from the past and that is released today. Perhaps it's not as much visible, since the so-called anime community is way bigger and diverse than it was in the past. Casuals or non-weeb viewers don't give a damn what do they watch in their free time or what do others prefer to watch in their. Both groups, generally speaking and excluding some obvious exceptional individuals, just focus on having fun. I recommend this stance. ;) In modern times, it's possible to choose which version you can watch. Subbed, dubbed? Or perhaps watch it in the same way as viewers in Japan do? No problem, it's all within your grasp and most of anime offer all three routes to be chosen from (sometimes they lack dubs or dubs are released later, though).

I would beg to differ. MAL data suggests it's only a vocal minority of Anime viewers that have never liked dubbed shows when you look at two generic seasonal Animes side by side that get released around the same time period. Usually if one Anime gets dubbed and the other doesn't, it's almost always that the Anime that also has a dub in English will usually have twice as many members following that particular Anime as well as twice as many Users scoring it.

@ColourWheel English dubbing is not the only dubbing I had in mind. While it surely is popular among many people, especially these days, when many more timid fans have joined the ride and started just enjoying watching the works of Japanese animation industry, it's not the only dubbing existing, obviously.

There were not much problems when dubbed shows were the only ones available, or when someone was a kid would almost always (or always, lol) choose dubbed Japanese cartoon to a subbed one. With the increase of people having access to the Internet, and thus getting opportunity to check out the original version of shows they were interested in, resentment towards subs have increased. Not for that long, it mostly was a trend in 2000s. But still, if we want to be fair, then we shouldn't consider the times where subbed anime (officially subbed or with fanmade subtitles) was rare to the point of not being a thing, since there was no choice other than which show was available on TV, and which wasn't. Choosing to go the other way could be similar to saying that in 1920s people adored monochromatic films, not those in color, and casually forgetting what was the technological development back then and how widespread it was. :P

That's why I pointed out "vast majority" as a group of people who have never liked the dubbing. It also applies to people neutral in this case, but always choosing subbed versions if a dub is available. When it comes to people I referred to as "weebs", then yeah, they are minority and their numbers arw getting thinner way faster than regular and timid "sub only" enthusiasts.
