Thanks for the thread vilsisAlso putting vil in the OP instead of skully is a power move
>>541354705>Also putting Vil in the OP instead of skully is a power moveI would never pick an event character over my beautiful queen.
This graph was put together by calculating backwards from May 2025 and would need to be updated every year to remain accurate
>>541353563
>>541357789Twst came out in 2020. Why would they work back from 2025? If anything, the range should be from 1999-2004, and that's presuming that Twisted Wonderland even follows the same calender as us, which it logically shouldn't considering jesus wasn't a thing there.
>>541359218I think it's because it's the current year, anyway it's just increasing or decreasing the year from whatever starting point you want.
>>541359218Nah man then you'll get a bunch of weirdos like "This is PROOF that Deuce is actually 21-years-old in game"Who has time for people with zero reading comprehension.
>>541359218>presuming that Twisted Wonderland even follows the same calender as us,>Yana Toboso: Jamil is the oldest sophmore cause he was born in septemberSounds like the same calendar to me. Hell it's even the same calendar to Americans instead of Japan. How much more catering do people need.
>>5413613543rd year baby Vil
>>541362369>How much more catering do people need.Evidently a bit more for you because any logically thinking person would gleam from the mention of jesus that I was discussing years. Many calendars do not use AD/BC and instead use a different year zero e.g. we are in year 6 of the Reiwa era in the Japanese calendar. As far as I am aware, We do not know the year zero of Twisted Wonderland's calendar, thus we cannot assume that the year in Twisted Wonderland is between 2020-2025, when it could just as easily be 4386 or 890.
>>541364078Oh I get it, you need context. That image is from a tumblr post where someone specifically asked what the calculation would look like if it was the current year.
>>541363513That is so freaking cute. Makes me love Vil even more. Rolling up to the older guys like "Absolutely not."I saw someone say once that they'd thought Sebek would be the oldest first-year but I think his position as the middle child of the first year set is actually perfect. Middle children are loud as fuck, usually, trying to get people to pay attention to them.And Deuce being the baby and Ace being the big brother is on point. Dear god they put so much thought into this.
>>541364561It's cause of those stupid as shit kalimsisters who are dying on the hill of "kalim is older than jamil" cause they can't count for shit.
We died…
>>541365036I see where you're coming from, but I suspect it is actually the Jamil-sisters trying to emphasize his suffering to the point of creating non-canon struggles. Correct me if I'm wrong, though.From what I've seen the common argument is "The only reason Jamil's parents had him is because Kalim needed a personal slave, that is why Jamil is 9 months younger than Kalim, he was born to serve Kalim." The actual timeline and Yana's Twitter disproves this, so they stick their heads in the sand about it.Graphics like >>541357789 are nice to have but they're never going to convince people of things that they don't want to believe are true. Welcome to fandom, I suppose.
>>541366290Don't worry the anime is coming soon!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R6K9xUt-EvQ
>>541366290Expected, can probably count the number of posters still here on two hands.
>>541372675We did a role call once and I think there were like 12 of us? But that was before the big 4chan crash. Figures that some gave up after that.
Oh god with the anime coming are we gonna have to migrate to /a/
>>541376494I can't imagine us surviving in /a/. Kuroshit threads were dead as fuck and archived quickly, and that series is far better known.
Who else is excited for the first themed Christmas banner?
>>541376156I miss the tulpa anons
>>541378948I remember Yana tweeted this thing once when the Public School arc came out. Said she was talking to someone and they were like "hey I saw your new anime, yeah, yeah...so, uh...are you just really into Twisted Wonderland these days? Cause this new season seemed really Twst inspired..."And she was like "I am the creator of Twisted Wonderland."Poor lady. I wonder if there are legit people out there who think she's stealing ideas from Twst or vice verse.
>>541367705Reminds me of riddle's sleepwear dropping and en twit/reddit getting flooded with people like "omg the poor bean he was studying until he passed think of how abused you have to be to believe that's normal!!" cause they looked at the groovy and just made up stuff in their heads.And then you read the vignette and it was like no, he went to bed exactly on time. He is buried in books and tired because he knocked them over on accident waking up an hour earlier than usual. Wrong, wrong, all of you are wrong.
>>541381031I would be if it weren't a sequel to last year's event. NBC doesn't interest me at all.
>>541357789Why are Americans obsessed with age?
>>541392764They need to know who they're allowed to shame. Americans love scarlet letters and burning people at the stake. Always have.
>>541393494I hope the image-OP makes it again for 2026 and then the freakiest of the freaks start witch hunting anyone drawing Azul porn before February. And then February 24th they announce that it is okay to sexualize the octopus pixels because he is canonically 18.And then maybe they gain a little self awareness about how batshit insane they are. But I doubt it.
Novel 3YanaYana pls
>>541402573Recently watched a jp youtuber get into twst, buy the manga and the comments are 90% people telling him to get the novels too. The novels are really good huh.
>>541402990I haven't read the english one cause I'm worried it will taint my experience of the Japanese one but yes. Both are really, really good.I'm hoping the lady who wrote them was too busy writing the screenplay to the new kuroshi musical and now that it's done she can get back on track.Jun. Jun pls.
Rereading lilia's dream and legit wish they just let the characters drop in swear words and stuff. "Lord Henrick is after that egg, and he is such an asshole." - Dawn Knight
>>541385490A dance music video based on a couple of Kuroshitsuji characters made by a fan once went viral in the japanese online community and I remember how most of the comments were like 'Huh? The author of this manga is the same person who has created Twisted Wonderland??' I also found out that TW is apparently more famous with the general public than Kuro despite the latter being a much older series.
>>541412736I wonder if it's not so much twst vs. black butler as it is disney vs. black butler. Yana's baby is big for what it is, but it is also niche compared to the big IPs.Child rape and murder and brainwashing and whatnot. It's just never going to go mainstream. Which is fine of course, she wouldn't be writing a story about the organ harvesting of orphans if she wanted to be the next Demon Slayer. I guess Twst is proof of how big black butler could be if she ran all her stories through a Disney-fying filter first. But she'd rather write about gorgeously dressed people dying in horrific ways, and good for her.She has a whole essay out there about how she got tired of walking on eggshells to try and make everybody happy and now has just accepted that some people will always hate her stuff, and that's fine. Based Toboso.
>>541402573It will be announced along with the release of the third season of the anime in 2027.
Thread-bump anon here clocking out after a hard day's work. Let's stay alive people, there are only 25 days left until anime day.
>>541393494Actually, America never burned its witches. Hung a couple and crushed a guy under a door yes, but burning has always been distinctly European
>>541432000Is this guy Sebek's new boyfriend? I'm curious about their dynamic and relationship at the event.
Who here is gonna roll for Scully boy? I'm saving up for OB Azul but I can afford going for him, just hope he shows up before I hit soft pity.
>>541443464Coming Soon! Next month
>>541425823Those weren't Americans. America as a nation didn't exist yet and everyone in the colony at that time would have considered themselves English.
>>541456464Even if it started before America Revolution, people still think it is still Americans because they were still living in said North America continent.
>>541354360underestimated relationship and not much explored by the game's creators
>>541437442It's gonna be a great bait and switch.At the moment ENers are flipping over "otome bait" skully and they're gonna get in there like "he kisses my hand!? this is gonna be all about me!!...he kisses everyone's hands? Oh...kay...he ignores me at the end and falls in love with Sebek while I sit forgotten in a bathtub with a talking cat...?"
kinda surprising we don't know the dub cast yet
>>541475323There is some guy on xitter claiming to be a part of disney+'s dubbing dept and saying that an en trailer is coming in a week or two. That is prolly when we'll know.
>>541475323Do you think they'll already choose voice actors for all the students? That all the characters will have at least one speaking scene in the anime?And I don't know much about English dubbing, almost nothing, but if Chris Hackney were voicing a character, who would you choose?
>>541467973Off screen. Don't forget they're not actually there for the climax because they're irrelevant.
When did we collectively stop mocking and shaming self-inserters anyway? Was it when yomejoshi became popular within japanese fandoms? Or is it a gen z thing because, while they were definitely still around back when millennials were ruling the internet, self-insterers used to be bullied and shooed away when they couldn't manage their autism/cringe or when they were straying too far from their contaminated zones.
>>541484708Self-inserters are still cringe as fuck, making everything about themselves, denying canon to make themselves feel important, me me me, it has to be about me or it isn't fun, everybody has to pay attention to me. The secondhand embarrassment is real.But letting them wallow in their mental illness does a lot more to damage to them than mocking them for it. Being ignored is the one thing they can't stand, after all. Even negative attention is still attention, and they thrive on it.The best way to deal with them them is to pretend that you don't see them. Being reminded that they're not actually the center of the universe is what they hate the most.
>>541497048Cute Azul?
>>541501909Cute tako!
>>541478634what does disney tend to choose anyway? do they grab whoever or do they have a bunch of their own VAs?
>>541508373>>541478634>>541475323I graduated from caring about anime in high school so I am out of touch these days but since when do people actually care about dubbists?
>>541484708>>541488431There is no one more imporant than yourself, there is no other life that is more valuable than yours. These characters are not real and I do, therefore I am more powerful than them and I can do whatever I want with these characters.WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO FUN? WHAT HAPPENED IN NEW ORLEANS?
LIFE.IS.FUN.Unless you are targetting and harassing a REAL person, there is nothing you do with these characters that is cringe. FUN is all that matters. Don't be a killjoy and smile, you ARE cuter when you smile, never forget that!What you do and like is not cringe, it's your own interest, it's your own LIFE (in japanese, RAIBU), and if you like it, that is all that matters!
>>541510898People are curious, maybe a little more for twst because the Japanese seiyuus are so iconic to the characters. Who can en possibly get to attempt to replicate them. Is that even possible, there's no way they'll get a deep voice musical theatre singer like Kazuki Kato for example
>>541512319I feel bad for dub-only watchers. The manga is already not as good as the game. The anime isn't gonna be as good as the manga, because animated adaptations are never as good as their source material. It's just how it is.And the subbed version isn't gonna be as good as the original, and the dub is gonna be even worse than that, just because the two languages are so different there is no point in comparing them.The worse version of a worse version of a worse version of a great thing. Whatever they need to get themselves off, I guess.
I give no shit about american VAs, they hire failed actors who do silly voices willing to work for minimum wage who aren't good enough for spongebob, no shit they're not gonna be like Kato or Uchiyama. I bet Ortho is gonna be voiced by a girl.Am more interested in the bonus content. Please god let it be vignettes, please let whatever lowest-bid studio made this project by outsourcing to north korea, please let them have at least a passing familiarity with the game, oh please.
>>541417752Thank you optimism-anon, always appreciate your support.
As long as the en version of the game sticks to using jp voices I don't give a damn about the dub. Never asked for it and will never want it. Not looking forward dub VAs pushing their preferred headcanon since they voice the character and saying ooc yume lines to appeal to their fanbase.
>>541515824Is that something that dub actors are known for doing?The original cast never does that kind of thing, from the interview translations I've read. There are some who are deep into their characters and seem to legitimately enjoy the game like Lilia's and Malleus', and then there are those who are clearly only here for the paycheck, like Idia's and Leona's (no judgement, it is just as job to them and there is nothing wrong with that) but I haven't ever come across Twst-seiyuu-planted yume bait.
>>541517060Idia's va is so funny to me, he's just here for the job but honestly gives one of the best performances of his career and clearly doing extra. Or is this a case of the voice director being really good again, we don't credit the voice director enough
>>541517406Credit also goes to Yana. When he showed up on twst radio he said that he gets a tone of notes from Yana on his scripts telling him what to do, what scenes from the original movie to imitate, etc. Yana herself said that she will gives instructions to the voice director.I had no idea the role of "creative director" included giving directions for vocal performances but apparently it does. Yana is a god. She even helped write the lyrics to the songs iirc.
>>541518712>When he showed up on twst radio By "he" I mean Idia's VA. Yana isn't credited anywhere for giving directions to the seiyuu but both Idia's and Ortho's guys said that she tells them what to do, and Yana said in a tweet that she writes notes to all of them and Idia/Ortho just get a ton more notes than the others. It makes me wonder how much other uncredited work she is doing behind the scenes.
>>541511845>>541512257Shut up you scammy fox
>>541518920I've seen fewer people trying to spread rumors that Yana Toboso isn't involved in the game anymore since those interview translations started going around. Not only is she still involved it kinda sounds like she's in waaay deeper than anybody assumed.
>>541519417Cute people cannot scam and Ferro is CUTE.It's true though. Don't tell the others but some people here actually believe yumeshipping is super super super super super super bad an cringe when it exists just for funsies since the beginning of times. Really, Pygmalion was the OG yumeshipper. Seriously, it's sooooo boring, it's all about yapping over people on the internet, come oooooooooooooooooooooooooon, don't be such a drag.
>>541521290I consider myself a Yanafag but if someone had told me "Yana Toboso has the authority to tell the music composer to redo songs when she doesn't like them," I would have doubted them on main.But she does. And not even the music in the game, which I would kind of get, but the dorm songs being used as the ending theme in the anime.I am a failwife of a Yanafag.
>>541518920>>541525184Makes me very happy that Yana is allowed to make these inputs and her team and colleagues are respecting it. I remember she tweeted about Idia's 3 minute explanation video that she just mentioned how nice it'd be if they could use irasutoya for it and wasn't expecting aniplex would approve it. They do seem to try as hard as they can to stay true to Yana's vision, probably why twst is that good in the first place. Hope burgerland Disney never interferes with her
>>541525831Her manga editor from Square Enix is on the Twst team too and I wonder if that has something to do with it. Just like "guys, let her do her thing. Trust me. We all saw the shitshow that was season 1 of Kuroshitsuji. We do not want a repeat of that. Stick to the goddamn script."
>>541521290Reading through that interview she did for the archives guide is insane to me like what do you mean Yana Queen Toboso was drawing backgrounds and props, writing scripts for R card vignettes and shit. Hire an intern for that grunt work stuff. But no, hand-built from the ground up. Damn.
>>541515824anyone who believes anything a voice actor says is canon is a dumbass and should be mocked accordingly and that goes double for dub actors, like guy you were hired for an afternoon of work voicing a character you've never heard of and will forget by next week, stop making stuff up.
Alright night shift keep it going
>>541535319What are the twins talking about with Idia?
Speaking about Idia's dubbing and his music, remind me of this:Ozawa: After hearingUchiyama in Ignihyde’s dorm song I thought, “Ah, this person can really sing.” So when it came to the solo song, I didn’t hold back. I had the mindset of, “He can probably handle this, right?” But since it’s a solo without Ortho or anyone and he had to sing entirely alone I avoided making the melody overly complex.Uchiyama was highly praised by the English-pronunciation coach when he sang “This is Halloween,” to the point that she asked if he was fluent. That’s how good he was. I hadn’t started writing the solo yet, but I had the thought, “I’d likeUchiyama to sing in English someday.” That’s why I packed so much English into the solo song. I kept thinking, “Wow, his English really is good,” and “This sounds so cool,” while working on it.Ichikawa: The idea of Idia being able to speak English just makes sense, doesn’t it? Gamers play a lot of overseas games, and a lot of them don’t get translated. So you have to pick up the language. Idia seems like he’d be good at that.I thought this song would fit a rhythmic really well. There’s a part where it slows down, and then it builds up again. That section feels like a rest break, and then suddenly it goes dadadadadadada! I thought it sounded like a fun rhythmic.Ozawa: I did the lyrics for this one, and since I focused heavily on wordplay I was changing the melody and rhythm bit by bit as I wrote the lyrics. I was told, “Pack in a bunch of complaints about extroverts.” And I was like, “Complaints about extroverts!?”
>>541550436Aozora: Do you have any complaints about extroverts, Ozawa-san?Ozawa: I don’t—I don’t have anything in particular against them. So I was stuck on what kind of angle I should take. But I figured I’d try writing while aligning myself with Idia’s perspective, and suddenly it all just came pouring out, complaint after complaint. It was so bad I ended up laughing at myself.It seems that the kind of people Idia dislikes are those who push their brightness onto others, like over-muscular, meathead types. So I wrote the lyrics with that kind of hot-blooded, pushy personality in mind, with a kind of revulsion toward them.Once I had a draft of the lyrics I had it “Idia-ized” with help from Toboso-sensei. I got tons of suggestions for expressions and ideas, and that’s how it all came together. I never could have written lyrics like this on my own. Toboso-sensei’s word sense is seriously amazing.Ichikawa: There’s even a part with rapping in it, right?Ozawa: Yeah, that was fun. The lyrics just keep going without a break, to the point where it’s really hard to sing in a single breath. There’s almost no place to breathe.During recording,Uchiyama said: “Is this really something a normal human should be able to sing?” He was like, “Uh…this is impossible.”I told him, “Normal humans can’t sing it. Don’t worry.” I sung the rap part myself in the demo and had to break it up into pieces.
>>541515824yana toboso retweeted the english-subbed trailer saying that she’s looking forward to the english dub and can’t wait to compare the differences with the original jp one, just like what the jp disney otaku would do with the jp-dubbed disney moviesi’m probably in the minority group who is looking forward to the english dub. twst is based from an american ip after all. the english voice actors should use that to their advantage.
>>541552930Can you name one recent modern English dubbing/localization in any anime or video game that has been praised being better than the original JP language?
>>541552930Couldn't really imagine giving a shit about the dub, honestly. Not because I hate dubs, I really don't, I just don't see the appeal in it, listening to a character having the same voice for 5 years and then suddenly some dipshit from California is now doing a pretty poor job in comparison.
>>541510898my main concern is how fandom involved they'll be, I don't want them putting their opinion on headcanons
>>541564658Funny
>>541552930I swear to god you people are so naiveOf course she is going to promote the dub anime. That is her job. It is her project. She might even be getting a cut of the profits if it performs well.She could not give a shit about EN. She could actively hate it. The fact that she has given a subtle jab against how they changed the food makes me suspect she might not actually like what they're doing.But she can't say that. She has to be disingenuous because if she is anything less than 200% enthusiastic about everything that Disney does, she is risking her reputation in the industry.If she posts anything less supportive than "the english dub is the most amazing thing in the world," no one is going to want to work with her again.And the more Eners listen to it, the wider the reach, the more it sells, the more money for Disney, the happier her employers are.She posts shit like that exactly because of idiots like you who will go "well yana says it's good and if Yana approves then it must be good."It could be dogshit and Yana will be promoting it like it's the best thing she's ever seen.That is the industry. That is social media. That is marketing. That is one of the reasons they hired her.
>>541584931Turns out I'm not done yet: shit like this is why Eners spread rumors like "even the OG cast said that the dub is good!! so it HAS to be good!"Like no fucking shit. If a voice actor says anything less glowing than "I have performed as this character for the past 5 years of my life and I put a lot of hard work into the animated performance than has been so eagerly anticipated worldwide, but yeah, the guy they hired to record over all of that as if it never happened, he did a good job," then they will be blacklisted. Who is going to hire a voice actor who would dare say anything negative about the decisions made by the parent company of the people who give them money and a steady job?But Eners see a media-trained professional giving cookie-cutter responses in interviews and go "ah yes, the original cast approves of all their work being deleted because foreigners don't want to hear it, and they even said we did well, this proves that it is true," and it's like grow the fuck up.This is a job. Maybe they care, maybe they don't. Maybe the dub wasn't audial poison, but maybe it was. Either way, these are people who know what they need to smile and say to make sure that they keep getting work. It doesn't mean your dubshit is actually any good, and anyone who believes that the original VAs/Yana are posting sincere opinions about their employer's choices to Twitter is an embarrassment to the concept of critical thinking.
>>541488431>>541484708kind of ironic to talk about wallowing in mental illness and cringe whilst on anime imageboard sis can't stop bitching about yumejos unprompted
>>541511845>>541512257keep spreading love you scammy fox
>>541584931I was talking to someone the other day who was wondering why Yana keeps praising the new Sebastian actor in the Emerald Witch musical.Like, darling. Sweetheart. Lovely. If she doesn't say exactly the right things all the time, her livelihood is at risk.She has over 700,000 followers. I wouldn't be surprised if praising every new announcement from Disney headquarters on Twitter is literally written into her contract.
>>541577496If they've gone through proper training, they won't. But Disney is not exactly famous for not cutting corners, and american voice actors know they're bottom-of-the-barrel "talent" and need to do whatever they can to stay relevant. This includes posting whatever might cause a reaction on social media so that people keep talking about them.
Are there any seiyuu-sisters with thoughts on why the industry developed so differently in the two countries?I was looking up Floyd's seiyuu and I learned about "roudokugeki." He does them a lot and they're like, live script readings? Just seiyuu reading from a script in front of people? No blocking, no costumes, they don't even memorize the words and read from the script on stage. It's like Dogville but with less theatrics. People do them for screenplay adaptations of like, novels, but also for anime/video game promotions.I can't imagine anything like that being popular in the US.
>>541599020Can't answer the question but if you're into that kinda thing you can see the Twst boys doing it in the Twst Fes dvd.Also asking dub apologists about that kinda thing will make them real mad real quick.I asked about dub actors doing drama CDs and got hella downvoted on Reddit. "Are you saying that dub actors not doing other media is proof that dub actors are bad??" Nah man you said it, not me, but maybe you're onto something.My own fault for posting in r/anime.
Fuwakororin and Tetekore Dorm Uniform version coming soon. Premium Bandai having Crowley as bonus
>>541550565>>541550436I missed a lot of these interviews, glad that anons here talk about them sometimes, love the info from them thanks for sharing
>>541607380The interviews with the compsor have been fucking treasures.Here is one of my fav bitsAozora: I conferred with Toboso-sensei a lot about the lyrics for this song, about how to put across what is intimidating about Octavinelle in words. Ozawa: She said, “Unsettling.”Aozora: “As unsettling as possible,” she said.and special shoutout to Ruggie's guy being so shy he refused to sing in front of people and closed the curtains in the recording booth so that no one could see him. Best-boy coded.
>>541607380And here is the bit that I bet >>541525184 was going off aboutOzawa: That was the third dorm song that I made. Compared to the rest, I really hit a wall with that one. I started making it in Spring of 2024. I went in kind of a cute direction with it, and Toboso-sensei told me, “No, it’s not like that. I want you to put more playing-card soldier feeling into it, to make it cooler.” So I changed it to adapt to those instructions, turning it into the “Obedience” that it became.
>>541584931Came back after months, but someone update me what food was meant here and what did she not agree with?
>>541615017The meat sandwich. She went to Disneyland in CA and was like "they changed Leona's meat sandwich for EN, but I'm in California and they're available here..."It's not a blatant condemnation of the localization because of course it's not, she absolutely cannot say anything that could possibly be perceived as anything less than a glowing review of anything that EN does. That is her job.Which is why I found that unusually "neutral" comment so interesting. Like an unspoken question of "if they have it in america why...did they need to change it." They systematically removed all of the japanese food from EN outside of new years and I wonder if Yana isn't too happy about it.And it wasn't changed in the tsum tsum x twst collab iirc, says minced meat right there. EN players like "what the fuck I thought the sandwich was supposed to be cheese," and it's like no, but tsum tsum showed a graphic of the sandwich, which was obviously minced meat. They didn't change it to cheese because they couldn't. So it looks like a continuity error to Eners. But it's not.
>>541599020Years ago I was reading a blog by a person who worked for Disneyland and they said there was a hierarchy with Face Characters at the top (Cinderella, Belle, etc) and at the bottom were the Mascot Characters (Mickey Mouse, Goofy, etc). It reminds me a little of the voice acting industry in the US.If you can't cut it as an actor your agent tries to get you work in voice acting. If that doesn't work out, maybe they'll be able to find something for you in dubbing.Voice acting is seen as a backup option, an entry-level, low-tier field that you take because you have to, not because it's what you actually want to do.Meanwhile, in Japan it turns you into a literal celebrity. That means more people want to do it. A wider, more competitive pool of talent. Only the best of the best manage to succeed. That is why they were able to get a guy who performs sold-out, stadium-level solo concerts to voice Ortho.There's just no equivalent in the U.S.
>>541584931>>541586930jokes on you anon, i don’t give a shit about what yana truly thinks of the dub, and i’m well aware that it could just be all a marketing thing. i’m not even an avid dub watcher since they keep butchering the pronunciations of jp words.like i said, i’m part of the minority who is looking forward to hearing the boys in english because i admit, as much as i love the original jp cast, they sound cute yet awkward trying to say english words. i remember seeing a tweet that wataru komada should dub jade and i kinda disagree cause i think he still needs to work on his english since he sounds a little off despite being better than his co-seiyuus. and yeah, i don’t give a shit if the dub will suck or not. all dubs suck anyway so mignt as well enjoy the ride. anyways you’re free to just ignore dub and stick to the jp one, no big deal. if you’re worried about the drama it would bring to the en fandom, that’s on you.
>>541609469Best booooooy hell yeah that's my rugbert
>>541621616So you used ‘Yana is promoting the dub’ as your opening to your main point of "I don't care what Yana thinks?" This kind of dumb flip-flopping is exactly why people get so tired of fandom takes. But you do you man, dumbassery keeps the thread bumped like nothing else.
>>541602143>drama CDsI got a CD with Yuuken's voice actor on it the other day and I think I like him. Had never heard of him before but he did a great job in the story and in the cast talk at the end he actually tried to talk about the characters and the genre and whatnot unlike his costar, who kept trying to talk about himself. Dunno if the other guy just sucked and made him look good by comparison or what, but I'm looking forward to his Yuuken now, for sure.
>>541599020>Are there any seiyuu-sisters with thoughts on why the industry developed so differently in the two countries?Japan's animation industry is a lot larger than America's. So there's a far wider pool of VA talent than in America.>I can't imagine anything like that being popular in the US.They used to have them at conventions, at least.
>>541639541>a lot larger than America'sThat is so odd, it seems like America's should be more expansive. They've got Disney, and all the other kids channels on TV, and even stop-motion animation which almost no one else does. America has so many more people in it, seems like every industry should be larger just to suit that, if nothing else.
>>541641464>They've got Disney, and all the other kids channels on TVAnimation being viewed as mostly a medium for children, is why it's smaller than in Japan, it's considered less respectable. In turn this leads the voice acting industry to be smaller because the only real avenues are for kids shows and video games. This isn't to say that American voice actors are bad, mind you, plenty of them are absolutely the equal to top level seiyuu, it's just that the talent pool is much smaller than Japan. Also a lot of voice actors are regular actors, too.
>>541643017I'm gonna level with you: animation is viewed as a medium for children in Japan, too. The weebs don't like hearing it and I don't mean EVERYthing, obviously Berserk was not for children, but neither is Family Guy.That's why we get wacky censorship when things are changed from manga over to anime. Manga is read by salarymen standing in convenient stores, but cartoons need to be accessible by children. Not only in America. In Japan too.
>>541645096huh, weird image to use an example. that's what I get for trusting the first result on google images.
>>541625909awww anon, don’t get your panties in a twist. I’ll give you a kiss and even bump the thread for you because you’re so smarter than us dumbasses here on 4chan of all places
>>541517406Uchiyama-sis, we got a new lore drop today. Apparently there were new seiyuu interviews published and he says that when he was hired, he didn't actually know anything about Ortho and Idia's relationship. They had those guys go in and audition entirely on vibes, apparently.
twstjp holding my wife hostagegive me the skeleton
What is this? What do you think it will be?
>>541654697Probably something related to the anime? But they already announced what they have in store to celebrate its debut so maybe it's going to be about this year's halloween event.>>541654152His banner is gonna be released in the middle of this month, right?
>>541646153It's funny when I remember that Ace is only less than a month younger than Riddle
Boyfriends
>>541693691Pretty
>>541686798Everybody zooming in on this for the blurry pictures of their boy have been adorable
>>541670836these interviews were kinda weird cause like what do you mean Yuuken's seiyuu made a deal with his actor buddies that if he gets get too haughty the others have an obligation to remind him that he ain't shit. Cater's seiyuu not being able to sleep at night cause of anixety, trey's seiyuu crying when he fails auditions. Wild.
Medium-sized version of Fuwakororins are also coming out. Someone must have really liked Trey's dream section a lot in Book 7 to make this possible.
>>541716587Pre-meditated merchandise
>>541682691Cute
>>541716587I love how Riddle has one unhappy face and then another, slightly-even-unhappier face.
Do you guys believe that the twst boys are white or do you subscribe to the theory that they're inexplicably westernised asians
>>541753137I subscribe to the theory that as they do not exist such debates are held exclusively amongst the mentally ill.
>>541753137That's a pretty stupid discourse but given their names and the sources they've been twisted from, most of them would be white, yes.
>>541738521Cute?
>>541763580Confirmed.
>>541648876I remember the diasomnia gang mentioning something like that too, they knew nothing of the plot and just followed instructions. Devs are so secretive not even the vas know where the plot was going until they have to record for it.Speaking of, I wonder how we're supposed to handle spoilers now with the anime coming and probably netting new fans. Part of twst being so enjoyable is we didn't get spoiled by leaks for all the surprises
>>541771418How do other fandoms handle that? I’ve seen some people branch off into different zones like manga-onlies, anime-onlies, etc., but others where everyone just gets absorbed and if you don’t want spoilers then the game has been on YouTube since 2020, either get real caught up real quick or stay off the fan spaces because no one is catering to you.
>>541731271Cool image of one of the best clubs!
>>541753137Most are white, but Kalim, Jamil, Leona, Jack are not white
Jack Birthday card when?
>>541797646There is a line at the end of book 4 about how jack got tan while skiing and people sometimes use that as proof that he's not supposed to be dark he is just tan as visual shorthand for being outside a lot, just like the savanaclaw mobs.
I wonder if we're gonna get a dvd of the blazing jewel concertlike on the one hand I bet the 3d models are going to look stiff and lifeless and watching them will give me secondhand embarrassmentbut on the other hand I wanna know dammit
>>541635859Funny
>>541797646Jack is from twst scandinavia, he's white
Gump
>>541833613But I think the American voice actor won't be white.
>>541844853who cares
>>541833613He's a cute wolf beast man!
>>541833613I have was always imagined Shaftlands to be their equivalent of North America, with Jack specifically being an indigenous canadian but that's purely my headcanon.
>>541829081This is pretty much guaranteed. I think the website says no recordings allowed for attendees and mentioned only their own camera crew there are allowed to film, why else are they recording if not for Blu-ray release
>>541864562I'm juice brained I meant dvd
>>541833613hes okinawan
>>541871539Sorry jacksisters but it looks bland
>>541872207counterpoint: he is babby
>>541872207I liked the art
Cute
>>541879395Jamil's promotion going well
>>541872207I think this batch in general looks bland
>>541871539God I love it when the beastmen open their mouths mm fangs
>>541879608Well, sometimes they alternate between Kalim and Jamil, since they mostly choose the dorm leaders, but other times they choose the Overblots boys, where it's Jamil instead. Which makes me think Scarabia fans tend to have more variety when it comes to official merchandise and materials, but I wonder if some people find it annoying that they're more Kalim or Jamil fans, instead of always having the same character featured, as it's not always the dorm leader! You can even notice how the cover of volume 1 of the Scarabia manga has both Kalim and Jamil, unlike the other volumes 1 of the other mangas.

The English dub cast and trailer will be announced on Monday the 13th.And I admit I'm curious about them having voice actors for all the students. I remember Yana saying that there will probably be new, never-before-seen scenes in the anime, so all the characters will have dubbed scenes.
