How can dubfags have such garbage taste? They are literally okay with watching a garbage bootleg version of anime, with shitty VAs and bastardized localized writing, instead of the original the way the creators intended. It’s like they’re choosing to eat a dirty hot dog on the ground instead of A5 wagyu. Truly disgusting.

I always ask people who watch dubs if they watch foreign movies dubbed too and I have never seen them able to explain why movie dubs are wrong but anime dubs are okay.

I'm someone who grew up with fansubbing so always was used to subs but I'm starting to like dubs more. Just easier to watch that way. Japanese voice acting is nothing special and is actually kind of annoying to listen to since it sounds like a bunch of gibberish to my English speaking ears. Why would I want to hear that when I can listen in my native language? English dubbing has vastly improved from mid 2000s when I started watching. Plus now you can get release day dubs on many shows so you don't have to wait. just watch in English it's a better experience. Stop with the weeb obsession with Japanese voices

Not arguing for dubfags, but this point doesn't mean shit to me and I would think most people especially Americans. Who the fuck cares about foreign films of other countries? Yeah I have a couple german films and like 1 Italian film on my drive, but that's fucking nothing.
The biggest relevant foreign film market would ironically be Korea, and I personally cannot fucking stand Korean films. Their language sounds disgusting, their plots are always the simplest slop, every single character sounds like they have the same exact fucking two syllable hypen kim-moon name. I would absolutely prefer the most mediocre english dub or hollywood remake of a korean movie, assuming there is a korean movie out there I would ever give a shit about.

lol imagine thinking Korean sounds disgusting. It’s one of the better sounding Asian languages like Japanese. Now Chinese, Thai, and Vietnamese? Truly disgusting sounding languages.
>>
>>287434682
I wish I could tolerate dubs, because then I could watch anime while doing something else. If I have to read subtitles, I can't look away from the screen to play a video game.
>>
Surely there's a handful of good dubs. Baccano comes to mind. What else?
>>
>>287435414
The sad thing is I agree with you. I was just saying the Korean films get the most international attention, and while it does sound better than all of those other languages I still don't like it. And the issue with Korean names genuinely filters me, they are so fucking bad. I could look up a movie's main cast names before watching it, study it for like 10 minutes, and still lose track of which gook name matches to who on screen.
I will say that Korean as a pretty isolated language family is pretty cool. Their writing system btfo Chinese, Japanese, Thai, etc etc and it's not even close.

I like how subtards can say this with such confidence when 99% of them cannot speak Japanese.

How can you say the VO is anything beyond different if you don't even speak the fucking language?
>>

>How can you say the VO is anything beyond different if you don't even speak the fucking language?
nta, if you watch foreign media in any other language you will have no trouble recognizing that some voice actors are shit. most qualities of good voice acting have nothing to do with language.
>>
>>287435575
Learn Japanese then get a translation gig and slowly climb up the ranks until you have a monopoly on translating Japanese media otherwise accept your fate

It's the other way around, I'm usually playing a game, and it's nice to have something on that I can halfway pay attention to during things like monotonous grinding in-game.
>>
Subhumans (subfags) can’t identify bad voice work to save their life. You aren’t a paragon of taste because you watch gookshit in its original gook language. You would watch Chinese or Cantonese anime with Japanese dubbing because slant eye island women give you a boner.
>>
>>287435707
>if only someone offered high quality work at a fair price they'd monopolize the market
Thought process of an actual moron.
>>
>>287435057
It's more of a gradient than anything. In fact, using foreign language subtitles also isn't "the original way the creators intended" but it's far more respectful than using a dub.
>>
>>287435465

>What else?

These dubs I see as good:

1. Risky Safety

2. Ai Yori Aoshi

3. Please Teacher

4. Please Twins

5. DearS

6. Heat Guy J

7. Hanaukyo Maid Team La Verite

8. A.I.C.O. -Incarnation- (Bang Zoom dub)

9. Revisions

10. Mahoromatic

Localization is inherent because translation becomes very stilted if done literally, you consuming subs are not much different from a dubfag. You are both EOP's and honestly have no right to complain because you lack the will to learn Japanese.
>>
>>287435465
YYH is often pointed to as a good dub, and for good reason. Funny enough the HxH 2011 anime is also really good, except Gon and Killua are only tolerably mid. All of the side characters are great, it's just fucking Gon and Killua that are meh. The chimera ant arc in particular is really good in the dub. Even the narrator works well.

If you don't watch anime undubbed without subtitles at the moment while they're airing/in theaters and unspoiled, you're not really watching them the way they were intended to be seen.

The problem lies in the compromises and quality issues.
Don't want to adapt some dialogue because there is trouble in your country? Ok, fine. Provide something that matches the quality then.
>Doesn't do it
Ew.

Can't use the soundtrack because of licensing? Ok, fine. Provide a good soundtrack yourself then that is similar in tone.
>Mostly Creative Common License-tier Music mixed together while being a 50/50 gamble on whether ruining the mood of scenes.
Oh for gods sake.

Voice actors get shitty payment in your country? That's a big problem. After joining an union with the average benefits and safety in wages, they can give their best! Let's give it a listen
>Constant 4/10s or 5/10s. Running the risk of mischaracterizing their portrayal alongside the dialogue.
I am getting sick of this.

The dub vs sub shitshow wouldn't be massively a thing if, and get this, IF THE DUB ACTUALLY MATCHED THE QUALITY OF THE JAPANESE. HOW THE FUCK DO YOU FAGGOTS HAVE THE BALLS TO ASK FOR THE SAME TREATMENT OF RESPECT OR PAY WHEN YOU CAN'T EVEN DO A BASIC JOB!?!!?

Those faggy "In the dub"-tier interferences are pathetic (Because why do you glaze or constantly bring it up in a subbed discussion for the source material?), I get to experience the original material as it is, the japanese quality control is far superior while the localized work is bareboned, overpriced and simply not worth a shit.

This is the anime equivalent of other companies whining and bitching about Steam. BECAUSE THE LATTER DOESN'T CONSTANTLY SHOOTS ITSELF IN THE FOOT WHILE BEING AN BAD EXPERIENCE TO THE USER, THEY FUCKING DO THEIR JOB. OH HEAVENS AND LORD ABOVE, WHY ARE PEOPLE USING STEAM OVER THE OTHER MEDIOCRE STOREFRONT?!?!
>>
>>287435465

Kemono Friends S1 unironically has a fantastic English dub. They actually went above and beyond, finding voice actors who fit the pitch and cadence of the original Japanese ones, fitting in as many of the puns as they could, fully dubbing the entire PPP song in episode 8, and even getting American veterinarians and zookeepers to do the commercial break segments.

It is a fact, a literal fact, that in some rare instances, the dub is better than the sub. Period. Like, for instance, Frieren.
The rare occurrence of a dub > sub is an absolute fact. At this point, only reply to me if you agree.

To all the retards saying just learn japanese. You're right, in fact we should completely abolish translation and dubbing of anime, if you want to watch anime just learn japanese right guys, no need for dubs or translation. For the record im learning japanese, but even i think this argument is the most retarded i have seen, it should not be controversial to want an accurate product free from retarded lolcowlizers rewrites.
>>
>>287442912
It's more retarded to pretend the issue won't continue to get worse with the explosion of normies watching anime that will want their normie sensibilities catered to
>>
>>287440143
Miyazaki would like for people to think there are artistic reasons why he uses live-action actors and random celebrities in his movies, but everyone knows it's for marketing reasons. His opinions on voice acting are worthless in any language.
