Rate 4/5
seen via english fan-dubbed and Japanese audio
This show was hard to rate. On one had you can see it as an action movie via japanese audio while it can be seen as a comedy via english fan-dubbed. Either way there were pros and cons to both sides.
art:
characters were nicely drawn. Colors/scene setting matched with the plot.
sound: (here i am going back and forth between the english vs japanese audio)
pro(s) for English
- clear mostly
-improved the original bland comical output
-added more sound effects to stress the current events
-showed originality
-had a more american appeal with words chosen, actions made and applied music.
Con(s) for english
-character reading was flat
-character reading showed mix levels in enthusiasm
-character reading made confusing/unnecessary statements.
-character reading was mostly off script
-some sound effects were down right dumb like the gun fire.
-voice actors were mixed. Meaning a girl character did not get a girl voice.
pro(s) for Japanese:
-you got what you thought you would get. Actors that know how to read accordingly (naturals)
-added more an action vibe with how it was read and written.
-character voices were appropriate for each character.
con(s) for Japanese:
-somewhat bland
-not really comical at all
