I hate deciding between sub and dub
Sub is just dub with extra steps. Think about it logically. Both are being presented in English but you have to read the words instead of listening and watching the animation.
>>287916953/thread
>>287916917That's neat that you're still able to choose. I have watched subs for so long that I'm hard-locked to them, it's too late for me to try out anything else.
>>287916953This argument is missing the prime aspect of the experience: how it sounds. It's not simply a matter of processing information.
>>287916917I just watch five minutes of both for the first episode and then watch the dub unless it's actually bad. Then I'll check a few scenes in the sub if there are any I want to hear.
>>287916917>It's hard to choose between voices chosen to represent the characters by the director and creative team behind the media or by a localisation company it was outsourced to on the other side of the worldPhilistine.
>>287916917>>287917094>>287917201Are we being raided?
>>287917252Permanently by retarded children, yes
>>287916917I too have a hard time choosing between watching a show as its creators intended and having a 'Murikan retard shove their dick in my ear.
>>287917661You say this as if you don't watch YouTube.
>>287918307Did this post somehow make sense in your head?
>>287918307Not him, but can you elucidate on what poorly thought out argument you're trying to make? I could use a laugh.I hope you are not saying that simply using American media platforms means you are unable to criticise anime dubs. If that is an argument I suggest you show this thread to your doctor so they can up your medication, or, more desirably, revoke your internet access entirely.
I only try (not commit to watching, just attempt) leaf and limey dubs.Your burgerclap "English" dubs can get to fuck
>>287918538>>287918589>nitpickingI'm saying that you have no right to shit on the dub of a show if you watch ENGLISH on NON-ENGLISH topics. (Because they are the same.)
>>287916917Just learn Japanese.
>>287916917I can't remember the last time i watched a dub. certainly not for anything released in the past decade+. At least for anime. With games I'm more willing to dub if it doesn't explicitly take place in Japan.Both FMA's had pretty solid dubs. I'll never forgive the old Funimation clique for what they did to Vic.
>>287918630>watch English on non-English topicsYou ought to watch more English because you obviously have a poor command of it.I am not being facetious. I genuinely have no idea what you are trying to say.Ask ChatGPT to rewrite it for you so it can be comprehended by English speakers.
Never in my 36 years have I ever even thought about watching a dub.
>>287918769I'm sorry I can't remember what I was trying to mean. But basically watching a video about your non-native language in your native language is a dub and this is very common on YouTube etc. Its just someone elses interpretation of the culture and language, and the same is true for animeAlso my English is strong and comprehended well by coworkers and acquaintances etc.
>>287918922Try to actually have an idea of what you are trying to say before putting together some half-remembered sputterings in broken English.Watching a documentary about the history of, say, Latin in English does not constitute a dub. Use your brain.Your coworkers are just being polite, I fear.
>dub threadfuck off faggots
allowing threads like these is just an admission that /a/ is dead and you killed it
If you don't watch dubs, how can you be a judge of their quality? They can't be intrinsically bad
>>287919527>they can't be intrinsically badThey can.How can a third party re-recording the audio be anything but a denigration of the creative design of the original studio?Have you know respect or care for artistic vision?
>>287916917>implying it's a decisionDubfags >>>/out/
>>287919527everyone but mr "look at me I'm not a zoomer and I totally shouldn't have killed myself six years ago" ITT obviously had seen anime dubbed on TV before watching something live in the original Japanese and realizing how much ass the dubs sucked
>>287919583Translations of books originally written in another language are perfectly acceptable to read
>>287916917I hate deciding between funny.png or funny.jpg
>>287919608I loved watching the Pokemon and DBZ dubs as a kid though
>>287919639>/a/ - Acceptable
>>287919639They are accepted because no alternative exists but are inherently inferior.
The number of good dubs can be counted on a single hand>Black Lagoon>Hellsing Ultimate>Ghost Stories>Baccano>Yuu Yuu HakushoThat's it. No, not Cowboy Bebop or Code Geass or Gurren Lagann or whatever else people think is a good dub. Those 5 are the only ones.
>>287919117Why the fuck are you reddit spacing for no reason moron
>>287916917I haven't watched a dub anime in over 10 years.
Dubs could be good but they're not allowed to be.Having to adapt English to Japanese lip flaps instead of being allowed to edit the show's animation to accommodate natural-sounding English is untenable. The easy example is DBZ. Migate no Gokui is the name for Ultra Instinct in Japanese. But its number of syllables and cadence is wildly different, so when the dub got that far they had to translate it as "Autonomous Ultra Instinct". It was a joke, really.And then they spend about $5 on VAs
>>287920013lol, did they give you that infographic as part of your onboarding package from hispachan?
>>287918645One of the great things about learning Japanese to watch anime untranslated is that it involves a lot of watching anime in untranslated Japanese.
ITT: OP makes a thread to seethe at himself because he can’t find anyone to argue with otherwise
Okay I wasn't lying to myself, some retarded spammer is genuinely making dogshit weekly dub threads for some reason
>>287916917>>287921178So someone else noticed, it's very obviously the same exact normalfag making these threads based on the thread images and text lingo. OP just go back and kill yourself already.
>>287921211>>287921178You are schizophrenic and/or need to touch grass
>>287916917This style, it's...advanced "cachinnation"?!
Dutch dubs are kino, unfortunately. Nobody recorded them, there are no DVD releases and if you're really unlucky: only the first season was aired before being canned
>>287920057This but with subs. Was konosuba 2016? Cause I think that was the last subbed anime I watched.
>>287921240No, he isn't schizophrenic. Some suhuman normalfag had been making weekly garbage dub threads that all sound the same >>287921554kill yourself
>>287921613No.
>>287921240>touch grassOne of the easiest ways to tell when someone isn't from /a/ is this phrase lol. Why would this ever be an insult?
>>287920013Huh, it never occurred to me that you actually had to double enter. I know reddit uses markdown but I'd retardedly assumed the devs hardcoded some fix and that redditors just double space for readability or whatever. This makes a lot more sense.
I just judge based on wherever the setting is.Western location? DubEastern? Subretarded isekai or fantasy setting? 50/50and if it just sucks then swap voices.big woop
>>287916917When you find yourself in that situation the correct option is to jump off a bridge.
>>287922429Your method sounds even more retarded>"New show? Hold on let me check the Wikipedia article.">"Fantasy? but what kind of fantasy?">"Hmmmm the races look white and Mexican even thought Mexico doesn't exist">"White hair, green eyes? Oh know, Russian dub it is!!!"
>>287922429I think you should just die instead of watching anime
>>287922429this is how I do it, though if it's pre-2005ish I don't trust the dub
>>287916917>>287917094>>287917201/a/ is dub-agnostic now?
>>287916917Sub if you are english or american, since most of their dubbing sucksDub if you a superior european ubermensh and your country is full of based and manly voice actors and sexy voice actresses
>>287923034It's euro + SEA hours and the OP is apparently a known ub thread spammer. I wouldn't be surprised if some of the posts are him samefagging or just a couple of coordinated retards
>>287923218No not really. You aren't watching anime if you're watching it in anything other than it's original language
>>287922530If you can't tell whether the intended setting is generally western or generally Japanese by looking at the key visuals you might be retarded.
>>287916917>>287917201>>287921554>>287922429>>287922998reddit bots
>>287916917>dubshit>>>/r/eddit
>>287923327oh the setting looks "generally western" better use the audio track with subhuman amerimutts speaking in memes
What the fuck is this thread, go back to wherever you came from jesus fucking christ. If you watch dubs you are a tasteless subhuman retard.
>>287923664This. Dubs for anything are almost always dogshit, even mainstream "respectable" things like GoT in French have the same shitty boring identical emotionless voices as every other show. And anime, which are either looked down upon or actively despised, are treated much worse than this. The French dub for Re:Zero S1 has and I shit you not translated "I am the sin archbishop from the Witch's Cult, representing Sloth, Petelgeuse Romanée Conti" as "Pleased to meet you". Just "Enchanté de vous connaitre", I don't know what the fuck can even create such a monstrosity, and no the sentence isn't just changed to be before or after, it's all cut for no reason.
>>287916917If I'm sick and feel really bad, i will do dub and just listen to it with my eyes closed. I did it when I had covid.
good job OP, you had your guarranteed replies, now fuck the fuck off
>>287923664it's a discord server of dedicated shitposters including at least one janny who was probably responsible for the sharty hack
>>287923664some dubs are actually good though. Like johnny yong bosch as lelouch
>>287916953>but you have to read the wordsNot out loud.
>>287923327>the only two countries in the world are Japan and AmericaPeak shart moment
