>>290837416I could have sworn Roshi's VA had died before today.
Who cares? Fuck off.>>>/co/
>>290837451retard
>dub
>>290837469I'll let you in on a little secret newfag, Dragonball threads were never on /a/ prior to 2017, especially if you were talking about the English dub you'd be redirected to /co/. You fags misappropriated a meta joke that went too far thnking that talking about entry level shit on /a/ was somehow acceptable.
That's a shame
>>290837569>v-vUH-VaX StaTUS?Every fucking time someone drops, people like you post this shit. It's annoying.
>>290837619Cope.

>inb4 copeCounter-cope! YEET
>>290837755Jobless hands made this post.
>>290837451Fucking dumbass>>290837569Fucking dumbass
>>290837906>it's poison because... I say it's le poison!
oh no!anyway
>>290837781You take English dub shit to /co/ or just stick to your containment thread. How fucking new are you?
>>290838085no one gives a shit about dubs vs subs bullshit except balding over 40 yo autists. stop using this board as a weeaboo retirement home.
>>290838085You sound Indian
oh no a dubshitter """va""" died!...anyway
Is this getting a sticky soon? Chris Ayres got one, so I think it’s only fair.
>>290837416This board can be awful because of seas but RIP.
>>290837416RIP
>>290837416One of the good ones at FUNimation, we lost both dub Roshis this year.
>>290838570This board is awful because of in/v/aders like (You). The death of an English dub VA has nothing to do with anime and manga.
>>290838526>It's concerning to not want to die of tetanus or measles
>>290838625America board, lot of us grew up with DBZ and FMA on TV.
>>290837416English dub sucked ass and the weird electronic music was worse in every aspect than the original one.The 1989 French dub was the best.
>>290838657When this fag >>290838520 died and got a sticky the board went apeshit calling it the end of /a/. But I guess you wouldn't know because you're even newer than that.
>>290838526>everyone disagreeing with me is an industry shill!Confirmed schizo. They're all so similar. You just have to be their boogeyman.
>>290838687I'm aware of wannabe Japanese, seas and eurofags freaking out but it doesn't change the fact this is an American board and if an English actor dies it's gonna be posted here, you can at least be respectful to that you fucking cunt, not my fault your country didn't play good anime.
>>290838718So you don't deny only browsing /a/ in the last few years? Good to know, not that I couldn't tell.
>>290838761I been on here for years, you'll never be Japanese.
>>290838797Two years going by your knowledge of where shit belongs.
>>290838718>posting this>not knowing /a/'s traditional deep hate of dubsRetarded newfag tourist.
>>290838600>Spike the BulldogFUCK, now that's actually sad.
>>290838818I'm well aware there's people who complain for years even though it goes nowhere, it doesn't change the fact that you're an asshole.
>>290838849>you're an asshole.Sorry for hurting your ass.
>>290837416>>>/co/
>>290838882Karma will come to you for disrespecting the dead anon.
>>290838761>>290838818>>290838817No one cares that your local broadcaster didn'tdub your anime so you had to read small letters on the tv screen, anon. That isn't Americas problem much less this american board's. Most people here are zoomers who could less than a give a fuck about some EU or some non-american larping as oldfags and no, 3 year on here, a 20 year old website is not olfag status and neither is reading up on old desuarchive post.
>>290838897Respect is earned, not given.
Dubs or subs, you shouldn't be a dick when someone dies.
>>290838900>EU out of the fucking nowhereRetard anon, americans in particular were dub haters. Other countries are not as dub averse, because they had actual talent in the debug industry.You're a retarded newfag cunt. Probably made these vax and tranny posts and asked to respect the dead.You're absolute fucking cancer.
>>290838900And tell me when discussing Dragonball or English VAs on /a/ was ever acceptable. I'll tell you since I'm not the larper here, it was 2019.
>>290838943>Americans in particular were dub hatersYeah pre-Toonami/Pokemon fans who are old, have families, dead or got offline. If you were born from like 1994 onward you likely became an anime fan via watching TV.
>>290837504yeah that's not true, see: psg and cb threads since time immemorial
Normally wouldn't mind so much since its a dub VA, but its Master Roshi's one. He was pretty iconic and prolific. May he rest in peace.
>>290839022I'm talking about Dragonball specifically you illiterate faggot.
>>290838943from my recollection a lot of them were britbongs complaining about the inconstancy of their dubs because they were behind on dubbing and underfunded by their broadcasts stations, or some literal baby boomer and early gen xers that would have been at least 25 when this website was created but thanks for showing that you are a tryhard EU /pol/tard with a for a passion for anime history. Well, at least they part of anime history that doesn't offend you, innit lol
>>290838928If you're not a dick then you don't belong on /a/. Everyone's an edgy dick here.
I remember listening to the commentaries on FMA blu rays and he was the dub director and he talked about how they worked extra hard to make the show fit the Japanese script as much as they could and trying to cast the right voices and it shows when you watch it because it sounds so much better than most dubbed anime. He really cared about the shit he worked on.
>>290839062It's 2026, you're stuck in the past.
>>290839100see>>290838687
>>290839061No, /a/ is and has been constantly complaining about shitty US dub voice actors, newfag retard. There may be exceptions here and there, but that is or was the general attitude.>muh EU>muh zoomers>muh /pol/Shut up you woman.
>>290839129Hating on dubs is just boring and typical, no one cares that you're acting like it's 2008 and you're the purest otaku anymore man. People watch anime however the fuck the want more than ever now, you got zoomers who do it at 2x speed which is retarded but who cares. Move on old man like this is embarrassing the weeb culture you had is gone. I've accepted it but you can't seem to, hell given how physical media is getting worst these days people don't even make fun of you for buying anime on this board anymore.
She can't keep getting away with it.
>>290839182People hate dubs because they sound like shit. Especially newer dubs. Liking dubs is the sign of the newfag, who has watched a couple of shows and isn't sick of the bad performance of dub actors yet.Your rambling is utterly retarded.
>>290839129>>290839215You don't even know Japanese. You rely on localizers to deliver your subs which are even worse than modern day dubs.
>>290839215dubs suck because japanese theater kid writing sucks when performed in western languages
>>290839215People hate dubs because it was a popular thing to do, there's a lot of bad dubs but most dubs are fine, few are great and lot are generic. I've seen anime in both multiple and I can tell you, not much of a difference. Anime is a dub in Japanese anyway so it's always gonna have that sound, it's animated then vs voiced not voiced then animated like a cartoon, so they dub over the animation not animate to the audio.
>>290839242When you have to match lipflaps it's always gonna have the ''dub sound'' it's hard to escape vs voicing something without having to match anything. Watch live action Japanese films, they don't sound like that, anime has a sound to it.
>>290839225That depends. What matters is whether you prefer hearing japanese voices or american piggoid voices.If it's the latter, go watch US reality TV or something, subhuman.>>290839242>it was popular because... it was popular!Retard, you don't even have an argument.
>>290837693You sound vaxxed.
>>290839257It was popular because people were wannabe Japanese and purest, no one gives a shit now because we have access to everything vs the old days, if you wanna watch the dub that's edited or uncut or watch it in Japanese or whatever you can with easy.
Roshi's been dead since 1995.
>>290839263You sound schizo.
>>290839253I watched the As the Gods Will live action movie (the manga that Squid Game plagiarized) and it's literally like watching a live action anime because all the actors talk like anime characters. It was fucking horrible and embarrassing.
>>290839307Anime not having lipsync and just flaps is why it's perfect for dubbing but it's also why it sounds that way, so exceptions trying to sound more natural aside, it's why Akira sounds different in JP it has lipsync and was done the western cartoon way.
>>290839215What irked me most is that I was into Dragonball in the 90's and people keep jerking off Funimation when they replaced good music like this with absolute rubbish.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xwwnUleADc
It seems like voice actors and mangaka have a propensity for dying in their 50s.
>>290839337Well that and Funimation's scripts were absolute trash.
>>290839337Nostalgia goggles do bad things to people.
>>290839360Yeah, nostalgia makes people think overrated trash like Dragon Ball and Cowboy Bebop are the greatest things of all time.
>>290839242>Anime is a dub in Japanese anywayNo it is not. A dub is by definition the secondary audio recorded after the fact. Anime scenes are drawn to Japanese dialogue, not the other way around. Dubs are entirely made by a foreign localization team, often with very limited access to the original team
>>290839215The worst is when you go to a theater and you get a trailer for an anime movie in dubs with the insanely shit tier sound production. People don't realize that localization studios are the ones doing the sound mixing for that shit, not the original Japanese staff.
>>290839337I don't mind the English music on it's own but the problem is that it doesn't shut the fuck up also I like the Ocean ost were it sounds almost like a horror score more than the FUNi one but they both don't really fit DBZ also licensed music Deftones in Cooler was sick.Mark Menza for the redubs of movie 1-3 and GT just flat out suck though.
>>290839400>Anime scenes are drawn to Japanese dialogueNo they aren't, that's a western way they animate the anime before voice over why you think the lips are just flaps and not actual sync?
Damn, so both Roshi's died? I thought he was recovering from brain surgery? That sucks, he was probably one of the Veteran VAs at Funimation. RIP. He has good replacements.
>>290837416>dubPlease join him.
>>290839505you're a zoomer
>>290838085>>290838625>>290838687>>290838818>>290838911You're a really pathetic and retarded lowlife.
>>290839263*vexed
>>290839337At least post music that was used during the movie and not the credits, you disingenuous braindead moron.
>>290839433The english version of Kachi Daze makes me vomit boiling blood every time I hear it
>>290839522I guarantee you I'm older than you.
>>290839242>>290839447>they animate the anime before voice overI wish I could be as confidently retarded as dumbass niggers like you. Do some research.
>>290839648Post your hairline, Zoomer
>>290839689I've literally watched documentaries on making anime.
>>290839689They usually do, but the animation is done to the script, so the animators know how the line is going to be read when they animate. These days it's also possible to quickly reaninate faces after voice recording if necessary. It's not like with dubs, where the line needs to be written to the lipflaps, with pauses exactly where the original line had pauses and shit like that.
>>290839576They're right tho, /a/ has always disliked dub actors and considered them offtopic.
>>290839693I accept your concession.
>>290839735>A bunch of assholes, seas and Eurofagsyour point?
>>290839735>Mutt>Burger>Not Americanevery time.
>>290839742This ain't r/chess, redditor.
>another dubnigger is deadGood.
>>290839756>>290839776>burger newfags pretending burgers weren't the most avid haters of dubsYou have to understand that most of europe and sea are much more tolerant of dubs. You just appear... unnatural.
>>290838718If you respected this literal who you wouldn't post about him on a board where you know nobody gives a shit about him. Why not make a proper respectful thread on /co/?
>>2908376932bh it holds truth though. My grandad died from a heart attack after complications from dementia, but guess what the hospital gave as his cause of death as he was tested before admittance to hospital? The numbers were madly inflated.Anyways. Anime. Roshi's English VA was kino.
>>290839843Not anime, and he was an overacting moron.
>>290839843Why do you think the virus didn't finish him off?
>>290837504yea, we only talk about pedocure and drug addicted cats on /a/
>>290837416His One Piece voices were pretty good last time I checked.
>>290837504We did have Dragonball threads back then, the difference is that they were good threads where /a/nons talked about Dragonball instead of garbage dumps where tourists spam dubshittery.
>>290839821
>>290839931They were shit when I checked.
Daily reminder that you will never be Japanese. Unless you pay taxes, you will never be a citizen. >>>/jp/
>>290839999Dub vs. subs has nothing to do with being japanese, you terminal moron.
>>290839454He was recovering, I had a feeling Mike had some pretty bad setback possibly pneumonia because of the cancer treatments and surgeries. He loved his work like anything and he was climbing the ladder getting more work as an ADR. RIP Mike
>>290839735Fucking beautiful. I love you, /a/.
>>290840107>Shitting on a dead guy is beautifulmental illness.
>>290837416Rip.He was a great jean havoc too.
>>290840163Don't act as i you didn't regularly shit on dead people by shitposting on the internet, you hypocritical dumbass.
F
>>290839017Yeah, I did. Watching English dubs.Until I stopped doing that in favor of not having to listen to dubs.Funny how that works.
JP voice actors>hand selected by the director based on the desired voice for the character>perform in groups with other actors while getting feedback from the director>knows how to sing in character and several other skills because they all studied at one of the ~130 voice acting schools in Japan where those skills are part of the curriculum>are the cream of the crop in a very competitive domestic industryEN dub actors>director has never heard of them>chosen by a localization studio who chooses them based on how fast and cheap they can churn out localizations and fulfill contracts>localization studio itself has limited access to the director and they prefer it that way because it gives them more unsupervised "creative freedom">they often record their lines alone with no feedback from other actors>they do not have any other skills besides being able to consistently do a voice, and they will tell you that voice acting is hard because you have to be able to do the voice whenever without any warm-up as if that's the hard part about acting.>Many are just randos who came in off the street. Some have theater or other background.>There is virtually no voice schools in the US. At most there will be a workshop or a basic course you can take as part of an art program.>There is virtually no voice acting industry in the US compared to Japan.You would have to be retarded to prefer dubs.
Only 56? Damn that sucks dying at that age.
>>290840375>There is virtually no voice schools in the US. At most there will be a workshop or a basic course you can take as part of an art program.And even then, all the actually good voice actors were veterans from other fields where they had naturally developed a range of voices, like how Dan Castellaneta used to do skit comedy with funny voices before he became the voice of Homer Simpson BECAUSE of that experience.Nobody starts off as voice actors, it's not a real job in burgerland.
>>290837416no one cares for faggots that does dubs
>>290839062>>290839106>>290839129>>290839735>/a/ is one personFuck off.>>290839350This. Don't hate the players, hate the game.
>>290840013It does for retards shitting on American posters who’ve come to pay their respects regardless of their stance.
My condolences but I don't give a shit about dubs so fuck off to >>>/co/
>>290840613>I don’t give a shit>cared enough to give his condolences
>>290839215I wish people would stop lying about this. Funi could start hiring A-list actors and people would still find a way to shit on them. Any and all dub hate, even justified ones like hating on the Black Clover dub is literally just America-bad and nothing else.
>>290840623Okay I'll take my condolences back, now fuck off
>>290840375You have to be retarded to think that someone who hasn't learned japanese can somehow appreciate origianl audio without using the same translator who write the dub anyway for subtitles (fan subs are not always reliable) over a dub that you can actaully listen to and understand all just because the dub... does not have hollowood actors. And all the other shit doen't matter because again, you are not a japanese speaker. You have no idea from experience as a consumer whether any voice work over there is good or not.>>290840513Sorry zoomer it is not 2018. No cares if you prefer subs. It won't upgrade you to oldfag>>290840645Larping zoomer
>>290840657>unable to understand emotion from soundlmao, dogs are literally smarter than you
Dubshitters are doing a pretty good job proving that dubs are exclusively for the mentally challenged.
>>290840718Seas are doing a pretty good job at being shitty trolls.
>>290840718I came in this thread preferring subs, now I just think subfags all a bunch of autistic and pathetic retards.
>>290837451>animes are cartoons
>>290840672>emotionNigga you are the type of weeaboo that gets mocked by native speakers when you try to learn japanese through anime and wonder why adults over there look at you like a disabled person.>>290840718Fucknig reddit nerd pushed his glasses in while typing this
>>290839257>What matters is whether you prefer hearing japanese piggoid squealing or deadpan american vocal fry.FTFY
The dubshitter LARP is unbelievable in this thread. It's probably a single person who goes on and on about oldfags and zoomers and somehow tries to use it to justify his love for dub trash.
>>290839735>>290840107A small number of retards spamming one sticky isn't all of a. >>290840249You're a pathetic retard kek.
>>290838085>anime>suddenly becomes a comic because of EN voice actingAre you aware that posting anime content in /co/ is against the board rules?
>>290840793>You're a pathetic retard kek.For pointing out your hypocrisy?Maybe you're right. Interacting with subhumans like you isn't worth any real person's time.
Iconic voice actor, sucks major shit he died so early in life
>>290840786it very clearly is. You can see the same idiosyncratic shit across all their posts.
>>290840786Are you going to complain that this single "dublarper" called you a redditor next conspiratard?
>>290840848He did here >>290840772 but he didn't reply to any of my posts in it.
Why is a death of an American voice actor a thread on /a/? This has fuck-all to do with with anime or manga. Go to /co/ or /tv/.
>>290839735We should have a separate community for this if /a/ considers this off-topic.
>>290840934/co/?
>>290840934it's called reddit
>>290837416Ah, it's dub shit, nobody cares.
>>290840985I care
>>290840933Funimation run their people to the ground while Pioneer did the job professionally.
>>290840985You know how many Latinos, frogs, and Americans all bonded together when Tori passed? Dubbing may not be high art, but as long as he or she wasn’t a shitty person, we respect the player.
>>290840806Toonami is /co/ as declared by moot himself, you retarded newfag.
>>290840786>>290840846He (or they) never said the dubs themselves were good. You can still respect an actor while disliking a given work.
>>290841062Almost as if "tori" is a relevant person to all, while this guy is a complete nobody to everyone except retarded burger dubslurpers.
