"Animation was never intended to be read" edition.
>editionlurk for two years before posting newfag
Do not retread a topic that was dead and buried as far back as 2004.
>>287822171did dubs even exist back then?
>>287822171DBZ was dead and buried then too but you still make threads for it.
>>287822124>dubshit>edition>>>/r/eddit
I take this as an admission that highrashifags who say they "read VNs" are all dubfags
All I wanna know is where shitposters like you come from to spam the same threads over and over again.
this thread sucks dick, check my dubs
>>287822533sharty
Can't y'all guys have a normal discussion about subtitles and dubbing?
>>287822604go have one on sharty
>>287822604>y'allI really want to punch people in the eye whenever I see this word
>all these asshurt replies
>>287822883this gay nigga had so many dicks in his butthole that his butt don't hurt no more
>>287822124Manga and anime is for literate people only.
It literally doesnt matter. 90% of dubs are shit, thats a fact, but whether youre watching sub or dub youre still getting a shitty 2nd hand experience so the answer is "who cares." Any sub elitism from EOPs is performative in nature and should be mocked just as much as dubfags deserve to be mocked for being dubfags.
>>287822521You can't even spell the name of the visual novel dumbshit.
>>287823003you still think bijuarunoberu is supposed to have meaning in english
>>287822124I am sorry that you are too slow to be able to watch and read at the same time.
>>287822124Start with dub.Switch to sub if and only if.1. The dub is bad.or2. You finish all the dubbed episodes and the subs are ahead.
Anyone noticed the increased in dubfags in last few years who for some reason think we care about them loving dubs?
Dub for Dragon Ball stuff. Sub otherwise.
>>287823003and you didn't begin your post with "no, also" so you only just confirmed it
>>287823191>The dub is bad.But the dub is always bad.>You finish all the dubbed episodes and the subs are ahead.The subs are always ahead because the shows are made in Japan dumbass.
>>287823239>Dub for Dragon Ball stuff.That's literally one of the worst anime you could choose to watch the dub for. The dub for Dragon Ball is well known for being poorly translated.
>>287823191switch if and only if: 1. you don't enjoy the sensation of cum flowing inside your asshole2. you are not the troll janny who keeps letting these threads stay up (redundant because janny already likes a cumny asshole)
There are several anime that I enjoy the dub and a few that are just as good as the sub to me. However I realized that only applied to older shows, 2015 at the most recent, and I haven't liked any new dub in years. The only exception in the last decade was panty stocking s2, which tried its hardest to match the 2010 season dub.
>>287823505Didn't that dub change every va because the company that made it didn't want to bother getting the old VAs back?
I don't outright hate dubs but the Frieren English dub is one of the worst things I've ever heard
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wE_rv6LJ_DYI prefer subs most of the time.
>>287823876you should hate dubs specifically because they cast some generic sexy milf voice chick who got laid off from doing Adam & Eve ad reads as Frieren
>>287824094No kidding. Is that seriously her? I used to see those ads all the time on Comedy Central
>>287822696You must be pregnant because you are missing your period. It is a common occurrence on Tumblr.
>>287824094well that explains everything...I actually like her Frieren, it's obviously very different from the Japanese, but I liked the gap moe of sexy milf acting like an autistic child. Rest of the dub is trash tho
>>287822124Honestly, a bad 90s dub will always be more watchable than a mediocre dub from today.
>dub is good>character shows some text on the blackboard or on a piec eof paper>doesnt have subtitles saying what it saysor>character is english/american>theyrs supposed to be speaking engrish or not know japanese>no way to know if theyre still talking in english or speaking japanese
>>287822124Whichever I feel like
>>287822379Yes and they were actually better than modern dubs despite what funimation shills will tell you.
>>287822124I can't speak for English dub watchers but I have recently started watching anime dubs in my native language. I must say, although they aren't consistently on par with the emotions Japanese VAs show, some of it is also very well done. I also like being able to learn new words in my lanaguage for complicated things and ideas. Another factor is that the dubbing industry is very well developed in my country and we have been dubbing shows, outside anime from a very long time. So clearly, the presence of a demanding market helps.
>>287822124Shame that Funimation has an almost monopoly on all fucking anime these days. And yet despite being owned by Crunchyroll and have the money, they STILL are operated by a niche group of friends who are subpar at voiceacting
>>287823243>But the dub is always bad.Maybe its because the dialogue is bad. It's almost as if when people say shit out loud in a language you understand, it doesn't sound all that great
>>287824594how many countries in the world are there with a large enough economy to dub anime in their language but where books don't exist?
>>287824661It's painfully obvious that you're a monolingual.
>>287824661what the actual fuck is wrong with anyone who uses this line of argument? even ignoring those who can already kind of understand Japanese, which most sub watchers who have watched enough anime to be allowed to post here can, are you under the impression that the subtitled lines are anything other than a translation of the lines being spoken? what do you think subtitles even are?
>>287824711You have made a good point, so let me clarify, I do not agree that it's hassle to follow the subtitles along with the video in the way OP has presented. But, as with most other things, some people, do indeed like to not even have a slight inconsistency in their viewing experience and opt for a viewing mode where they only have to follow the audio for narration, where it's clearer in their native language.
>>287822124If you're too stupid to keep up with reading subs, stop watching anime and read some fucking books. Otherwise learn Japanese if you want to watch anime as it was intended to be seen.
>dubs>editionFuck off, nigger.
