Dubs can actually make an anime watchable.
Hajimete no Gal is shit.
The English dub turns it into a meme-generating anime. Though, not quite on the level of Ghost Stories

i didn't ignore it, but i'm not going to argue it either.

of course people are correct that a lot of what i said was bait, that should be obvious.. dur hur. look at all the great responses. They took the bait, ate it up, and act like idiots, just as it was planned. so, really, that doesn't mean there isn't any truth to what i said either.

but if an anime has a dub, I'm watching it dubbed. No matter how bad it is.

i honestly think the people complaining about dubs these days are obnoxious and ungrateful punks.

back in the day, you actually had to pay extra for dubs, and that was when dubs actually WERE bad for the most part. But it didn't matter, it was anime.

Kids these days are spoiled rotten idiots.


I am one of the people that started anime with dubs and then switch to subs entirely. I watched Ghost in the shell, Samurai 7, Ran the samurai girl , DBZ, etc. with dubs but when rewatch them in subs, it bring an entirely new experience for me.
I don't like dubs since my first language is not English anyway but I won't even watch the dub in my own language. I prefer to watch everything in it original language since the dialogue fit better with the animation, the emotion is also better and more natural. With subs, I can watch more anime and don't have to wait.
There are plenty of cartoon and American movies that were dubs in Japanese but I don't watch them. There is no way I am gonna watch Scooby Doo in Japanese even if one of the VA in there is my most favorite VA. With comedy like Gintama, dubs cannot bring out the jokes very well and then turn to the solution of changing lines which in turn, kill the essence of the anime. Like the "Gintama, Kintama" joke that only make sense in Japanese.

By the way, "dubs > subs" is a bait-worthy title. Everyone can watch dub or sub, whatever they like but to me "original > dubs"

Nope. Dubfags are the problem. No one is telling you to stop watching dubs, but you just need to accept the fact that dubs are made for less inteligent people/kids/stereotypical average Americans. Like seriously.

>dumbed down, highly alternated, often SJWed translations
>censorship
>a lot of localization which in most cases changes whole characters and their personalities
>Shitty VAs who can't even pronounce names, not mentioning about other things
>emotionless voice acting
>full culture washout

In the end, you are basically watching a totally different series. And as I said. Of course, you can take a low-tier way to watch anime, but don't try to convince anyone that dubs are better (or even close to original or subs).


You are totally delusional if you think that subs are superior than dubs or dub is made for 'less intelligent' people. You have given no sources to prove your point to be accurate (or even a little bit convincing), that is what I call being 'less intelligent'.

> They alter translation to make it watch able to wide variety of audience. Moreover, alterations are more often in subs than dubs. Don't believe me? Ask Crunchyroll yourself.

> Censorship? When was the last time you watched a dubbed anime? A decade ago? Censorship doesn't happen in this era, unless the original Japanese version is censored. In that case, the uncensored Blu Ray version dub is later released.

> Localisation actually improves the personality of the characters while retraining their original personality. Try Black Butler, My Girlfriend is a Gal, Code Geass, Death Note, Clannad and pretty much every other anime.

> Shitty VA? Have you ever watched a dubbed anime? Oh, I'm pretty sure you have watched that fandubbed Dragon Ball to defame dubbed anime. You have managed to convince me that last time you watched a dubbed anime was a decade ago.

> Dub provides a variety of emotions, while you can't even differentiate between one emotion with another in subs.

> Huh? What? There is absolutely no culture washout whatsoever.

Due to not being intelligent and unable to comprehend dubs, you're now convinced that subs are better than dubs.

Well, actually, I understand Japanese, so, no. You are completely wrong. Even the most localized subs (aka cummie-tier crap) are still FAR MORE ACCURATE and LESS alternated than ANY dub.

Censorship doesn't only mean visual changes.

Say what? You didn't say anything specific about English dubs or not. And even Donald Trump has to acknowledge that I am a American citizen and I have every right to say my opinion in an online forum.

Adult male otaku? The same ones who demanded an official dub for the franchise. I only glanced at it because of the complaints from said fans. The situation reminded me of the old Yugi-oh. I didn't think this kind of dubs still exist.

Luci Christian is also CRAZY good. like she has done so much stuff... lol but i think my favorite dub she was in was as Hestia in Danmachi.

yeah but if you know these characters, their performance is what makes the anime. the "syntax".. what's changed in their translation .. what they say that is "different" than the japanese version.

this doesn't make sense to me. If English dubs have the chance to make something better by changing or adding/removing directly to/from the line to make it appeal more to an english audience, they should. and a lot of times, that means it's going to be different than the original translation, and more than just syntax.

Maybe DateYutaka worries that inaccurate localization would make people have some misunderstanding about his culture. In my opinion, if someone translate something from my culture, I would want the translation as accurate as possible. I, myself, also love to know the exact translation of something from different cultures.

I like both sub and Dub, as long as I'm able to watch anime. But my mum tells me what is the piont of watching something you don't understand, and I always tell her IT'S SUBTITLED! But she doesn't understand my point.

oh trust me, we won't be misunderstanding anything about the Japanese culture because of anime. we've been getting weird stuff from Japan for a long time. If anything, it's been a lot more tame as of late.

that pay high levels of disreesct to teh creators of anything im about respecting the artist

main reason i have distatse for say the us comics indtsdy is the the leck of creatos right look ar ditko moore just to name t the two most eagregous ways the big two havd fucked over creators

abnd i see bad translation as doing that too video game translation and cenorship is even worse

but lets stikc ot anime right now im purist in this way i word it like this there has been very few even passibale dubs not matter what lanaguge the go in to

K. It is just a matter of preference. I prefer something as accurate as the original as possible since I want to understand the author's intention. The same for movies, novels, poems, etc.

yeah idk about english to japanese translations.. i did pick up a japanese translated version of some spawn way back for funsies, but yeah, it's not really my problem lol.

@Himawari9 I guess.. I mean I think the people at say like.. funimation or ocean productions deserve their artistic freedom.

yeah, idk if you have a right to judge. I've been watching dubs for a VERY long time... my favorite movie when I was little was a dubbed french cartoon. and I was not only a part of the anime boom in the west, but i helped popularize it in my city. It wasn't until the millennium I started to meet people I didn't know that was into anime. Before then, everyone I knew that watched anime was by my influence.

As long as it is not too over-the-top like changing the name of the characters into English ones or removing cultural aspect completely , everything else is fair game. I like good dubs from old anime like Cowboy Bebop.

The Glitter Force I mentioned has an episode where the MC goes to Kyoto for a field trip and the dub changed it into an Asian Expo trip, this is what I call going overboard.

i haven't seen what you're talking about, but i'm sure it was for a good reason.

It is due to the company wanted to change the setting of the anime from Japan to US.

it makes sense. If a lot of the setting can be interchangeable like that, then why not? Like, if English watchers can't see any difference, all the more reason to have that change. What they call it doesn't really matter as much as whether or not the animation itself allows it.

They cut out the episodes that was obviously too Japanese. The audience are 12 and younger girls so I guess it is fine with them. Adult will notice that there is something wrong but then they would have gone and seen the original. More shows for little girls to watch.

Yeah, it's understandable.. especially for a younger audience. The younger, intended audience, is most important. Younger people might have a harder time following the show. If it was too foreign, they wouldn't understand it, and thus not watch it.

are you calling me a chauvinist? =\

suspension of disbelief has to do with immersion. the more you are able to suspend your disbelief, the more heavily immersed you are.

I actually prefer that they didn't do dub like this at all. There is no need to introduce Precure to the West. It is just as bad as Demashita! Powerpuff Girls Z.
