Holy shit this is the worst fucking thing i could have imagined. Fuck this gay earth.
>>
>>107995865
Gamagoori sounds bretty great
Satsuki's voice isn't deep enough
Ryuuko sounds like a retard
Monkey's alright
Dog's alright
Nono is surprisingly acceptable
Sensei sounds high
Mako works
Senketsu is fucking ruined
>>
>>107996423
I managed to get through the entire trailer...so no, definitely not the worst.

i coudln't get through the first minute. I think i set the bar too high in my mind.
>>
>>107995865
Actually sounds pretty decent. Well, Senketsu aside. Satsuki's also gonna take some getting used to but I actually like a lot of these voices surprisingly. Ryuko, Nonon, a lot of them sound pretty spot on.

I have to hear Gamagori's indoor voice, though.
>>
>>107995865
at least it's not as bad as the P&S dub
>>
>>107996612
Nigga are you high, that dub was fucking art
>>
>>107996237

The elite four is well casted. Everyone else was ruined. And I'm not talking about the voices, I just mean that the acting (based on the trailer).

I really hope Toonami doesn't pick this up. I don't want to have to hear it every time I watch the block. Hopefully this is just first/second episode jitters and everyone grows into it.

What.

This dub is fucking alright, what's wrong with you niggas?

Why the fuck did they get Johnny young Bosch to voice Senketsu? He's more of a Mataro then anything.
>>
>>107995865
they picked a more or less perfect VA for nonon, so i'm quite happy about that. also gama and mako are flawless as far as the examples in the video show, still need to hear a wider range to say for sure.

all in all, i might actually pick this up.

And while we're at it can you please stop playing Franky.

Voice matches character. I like it. 8/10

>Inu
Sounds a bit too geeky but it fits. 7/10

>Nonon
Honestly didn't expect them to do this well. Can't believe they manage to find someone who's sounds close to her original voice. 9/10

-9/10 How could you fuck up this badly.


I wonder what Trigger thought of the voices.

Man, I had the lowest expectations for this thing and I still can't believe how shit it is. Everyone save for Nonon and maybe Satsuki sound so fucking bad.

Everyone but Satsuki and Senketsu sound pretty good. Satsuki just needs to sound deeper and we're good to go. Senketsu is just what the fuck though.

Too expensive for more difficult work (and dubbing anime is the harder out of VAing for video games and western animation). He goes for the big bux now. That's recurring role as Gaara in Naruto and that's it for anime. Only vidya or western animation.

Not a good trailer, it's like they forgot it's supposed to be a lighthearted action-comedy thing.
It's hard to imagine Senketsu's calm voice, the usual facade of the robotic partner, but we'll see.
Viral sounds too... collected? He doesn't sound cocky or disinterested.
Gamagoori doesn't sound big enough.
Hell, I didn't like Nonon's voice in Japanese at first, either.
Satsuki isn't deep enough.
Ryuuko sounds like an edgy faggot, which she shouldn't. Yet.
Mankanshoku doesn't sound right.
No Takarada/10
>>
>>107997251
>Goddamn Patrick Steiz sounds the fucking same in every role. 2/10

It's hard to blame the guy. Every single voice he's casted for demands him to yell ALL THE TIME.

Everyone a shit except for elite 4. Monkey is okay, Inu is really good, and Nonon is almost a seamless transition from Japanese to English.

Well that would be good, I guess, if she does better in later episodes.

Satsuki's voice was one of my favorites things about her so I had low expectations going in anyways, yet this was still disappointing. It needs to be way more booming than that. 2/10 would not follow to the end of the Earth.

Ragyo was really done well, they won't match Romi Park.

Satsuki and Ryuko's voices are already way too high.

Nui's might turn out fine.

Well English is an objectively superior language to Japanese, so there's a lot lost in the translation process that you can objectively analyze in comparing two versions. Japanese is a rudimentary language that is exceptionally limited in its means of describing the world and concepts, and that inferiority compared to a much more complex and developed Western language like English means it's impossible to translate media from one to the other without suffering a massive drop in quality. Like comparing mp3 and flac.

Seiyuu's are certainly a much bigger deal in Japan then they are here and it's not like anime is very big here so most of the people who work these shows don't get paid a whole lot.

Not to mention that this is a dub, meaning they aren't really voicing their own character, they're just translating it in to a different language, completely different environment then actually working on the show yourself.

many factors, sometimes they expect to make nothing on the american market and usually put no effort into finding VA's or whoever does it cheapest and sounds passable.

It's hard to do it too. I saw some behind the camera stuff for Space Dandy, and the VA guy was yelling and getting really into it. But the more you let yourself act, the less likely its going to match up with the lips. So they have to do it over and over and over again. So it kills it when you say the same stupid line 20 times in a row, just at the right speed.

It doesn't translate well. Most anime dialogue is really weird and awkward when you translate it into English. The way the Japanese are taught to voice act anime is also way different than here. They always go for over-the-top because subtle doesn't work as well when you only have your voice. It's kinda like how people who watch Dr. Who think that's what British people sound like in real life.

Most Jap VA's are pretty shit, too. One of the worst parts of learning Japanese is hearing just how bad of an actor a lot of seiyuus really are. But at least, if you can name them off the top of your head, they're probably the good ones.
Same with English. The majority is pretty shit, and because the market isn't that big for anime here, companies don't want to invest too much money in the few talented VAs they have at their disposal. So you get a couple of talented ones and a bunch of scrubs who work for chump change, or just skip the good ones and save money for more booze and blow.
It's a business decision and the art must suffer so the profits do not.

That something is called acting. America's weird anime ghetto of the voice acting industry has issues with that. The "voice" they can get down maybe 50% of the time, but the whole "acting" concept is just beyond them.
>>
>>107999165
Well they are.
>>
>>107998607
In short? Anime dubbing is bottom of the barrel work for voice actors. It pays shitty, work conditions are shitty (you have a tiny room to work in; you have to match the lipflaps perfectly or you have to do a take over again from the top, even if it was the best voice acting ever, etc.), and all decent VAs inevitably move on to do voicework in video games and western animation. Basically if someone voices in anime, are decent, and have been doing voicework in anime for more than seven or so years, it's a labor of love rather than glamor or pay. Like, people who exclusively do anime voiceovers in the US tend to need to have another fulltime job in order to even not be homeless.

And why is that? Because anime is a niche thing in the West and it doesn't sell well anyway because anime fans pirate that shit anyway and people who might be interested in it are turned off by the high prices to make up for the lack of sales. A "success" in America for DVD sales would be like 2,000 copies. Most anime don't sell more than ~500 or so copies if not less.

I'm not gonna blame it all on piracy, though it is a contributing factor. It's just a combination of things that makes this vicious cycle. Someone in the cycle has to stop it somewhere. Whether its the bigwigs in Japan who decide to licence anime out for a premium, the dubbers/distributors who price these releases at a premium (even 60 dollars for a 12-episode season is too much), or the pirates who make the old Japanese men and distributors afraid to do high quality work with all the risks that come with it. Only then can we afford to draw in good VAs.

She turned the plot around when it was just a boring monster of the week series and actually put the story in motion.

Japan treats their voice actors like actual professionals and hold them to varying standards of quality depending on their pay and the production values of the project at hand. Americans started as a bunch of weeaboos who couldn't afford real actors and then built an industry standard out of substandard voice actor wages. American voice acting is institutionally opposed to good acting.

How would you imagine some of the characters speaking in English?

>Speaks without contractions
>Slightly higher, roughness
>Kind of like a samurai who has fought in many battles in his day, but without the Japanese accent

Aikurou
>Dry, slower voice (teacher mode)
>Smooth transition (Nudist mode)
>Sound of the voice maintained while the tone changes

Inumuta
>Sound comes from around Adam's apple area
>Middle register, not too low, not too high
>Says each word precisely, but doesn't necessarily speak formally

My problem with Gamagoori is that his voice is too high and emotive. His voice has to be a solid wall that's belted out of his throat, unwavering.

I'm somewhat interested in Senketsu's younger voice, though. I have a feeling that personal scenes are going to feel more "romantic", though. People will view a humanoid Senketsu as youthful, maybe around 19, thanks to that voice. His Japanese voice makes him sound much older.

Oh god yes. I love her voice. She pulls off unique voices easily without sounding fake and retarded.

I think people have an idea of what each character sounds like in their heads, but either don't remember what they actually sounded like, or are used to how characters sounded towards the middle or end of the series, after the japanese VAs had time to settle into their roles.

The english VAs aren't perfect, but they're not bad.

True but even good actors have issues with anime. Take for example Liam Nessen in Miyazaki's movie Ponyo. The acting for the movie was not bad by any means, if anything Studio Ghibli does some of the best work when it comes to voice actors dub or otherwise. Yet in Ponyo there are several moments were, whether it be tone, or the actual line, the execution just was off.
So when it comes to people saying the acting is bad or it sounds bad I think it is less about the actual actor and a bit more about the script. If I don't make any sense I will be happy to elaborate.
>>
>>107998494
Its seriously doubtful that they'd ever remove that. Maybe if the show was televised the scene would be removed, but on DVD and Bluray and in the dub on those those scenes should probably still be in there.
>>
>>107999861
Because that's what they ask her to do.

Well, I was being generous for the sake of being concise and succinct. Obviously, there's not enough of any character featured to make a proper assessment(minus Seitz, because Seitz always sounds like Seitz).

Honestly, I had -0.000000% faith they could even attempt to do Ryuko right, let alone even touch Koshimizu, so taking that into consideration, the voice is alright.

I don't think you realize that you could go to literally any video on youtube and find that the comments are infested with utter imbeciles that don't reflect the population at all. Responding to them is crippling to yourself only. It means they've already won. You're not arguing with a normal human being. The people who shitpost on youtube videos aren't the people who've simply watched the video. They're people with absolutely nothing in their heads who exist simply to shitpost and then make your lives miserable for responding. Your anguish sustains them. Understand this is not the usual dub watcher. This is a specifically strained breed of shitposter. One who was given nothing in his head but the tools necessary for shitposting and destruction.
It's something not even 4chan is prepared for.
You sealed your fate the moment you commented. They now believe you are one of them and will keep you trapped eternally, responding even months later to you if necessary. I know. I've witnessed hell and been back.
You made a mistake.

You are already dead.

You fucking call somebody based, when you know literally JACK SHIT about their roles? How the fuck would you even know what they ask her to do, if you only know ONE FUCKING ROLE, SON?

For all you're aware of, she could be fucking JYB: Female Edition. But you have no fucking idea. No fucking idea.
It's the same shitty voice every time. She doesn't try to make it fit the character, she just does the same fucking voice.

Peacock, Sayaka, Nonon, Jinx, Uni from Neptunia, that red-head bitch in Accel World.
It's the same fucking shit.

Her Sayaka seemed good because that dub was fucking garbage, so something that wasn't shit seemed good. It was fucking tolerable, but barely, and that's because fucking anyone looks good next to RISE AND SHIIIIIIIIII~NE and Christina "Same Voice lol," Vee.

Sarah Williams is fucking shit, and the west is trying to cast her as English Eri Kitamura, too.

Ryuuko & Satsuki sound uninspired and by the books. They're not just reading off a script, but they sound like they've dubbed 100 other shows and are just doing whatever they're used to.

Gamagori sounds pretty good. The other generals sound okay I guess. But the main characters sound really bad.

Tell that to the Japanese. They have VAs that learn professionally and yet most of them are at the same or lower level as English fandubbers. And boy oh boy, if people get pissed that English VAs don't sound exactly like their Japanese counterparts, what kinds of English VAs do you think these companies will pull to cater to the customers?

English voice acting is usually great. Cartoons are usually excellent, videogames are usually well done. Anime is a different story, because they don't have any budget and usually little talent.

>>108000592
I like how she is "such a weeb" unlike most female VAs who seem like they just clock it in, but I would never watch anything by her. The only female anime VA I think is particularly good is Asuka's VA. There are other non anime English VAs I like though.

Pretty much. I mean look at what they did with SNK. They could've gone the extra mile and really did something big for such a guaranteed wide-reaching success, but nope, same exact kind of shit. The most typical kind of dub.

I guess my point was that it has nothing to do with "wah I hate english", it's just that a lot of these particular VA's and dubbed roles are just bad.

I have attention span issues. That's why subs were hard for me to read at first. Not because I'm illiterate, but because I used to have to rewind every 5 seconds to see what I missed. When I read books I have the same issue where I reread the same paragraph or sentence 5 times to make sure I read it right. It's sad because I used to love reading.

ok now i know you're an employee of whatever company dubbed this

look, i know you're fighting the good fight, bringing anime to those who don't like to read subs.

>They have VAs that learn professionally and yet most of them are at the same or lower level as English fandubbers.

I disagree with that. Yes, you have some shit Japanese VAs, but at least with the shit English ones there's usually a direct correlation to their acting background and their ability as an actor. People like to complain about dubs, but I'd say there's a pretty wide gap in talent and acting believability between the VAs that were around in the mid 2000's (see: Crispin Freeman, Lowenthal, Wahlgren, Seitz, JYB, etc.) and the VAs that are emerging today (Carbanos, Vee, etc). Part of that has to do with hiring practices. In the past, they wouldn't hire people like Vee and Carbanos, but the industry has changed. There's more and more piracy, many of the older dub actors only work on unionized, SAG-based anime projects (a rarity nowadays, how often do you see Crispin Freeman?), and while anime is popular, it's still a relatively niche medium. They have to ensure they make a profit. If studios can cut corners with a dub by hiring cheaper, less experienced talent, they will.

> And boy oh boy, if people get pissed that English VAs don't sound exactly like their Japanese counterparts, what kinds of English VAs do you think these companies will pull to cater to the customers?

As someone who likes dubbed media, I'll say I'd take a stronger, more believable performance over someone who's a close voice match to the Japanese VA. If I wanted parity with the Japanese I'd just watch subs.

>>108000634
People who are dubbing have to match the lip flaps of the original Japanese animation. It's incredibly difficult to do.

>>107998607
They're dubs, that's bottom of the barrel work. You'll rarely see any talent voicing those, unless they're not doing it solely for the pay. Also names don't translate well, you can't put and entire Japanese name in an English sentence and make it sound good, no matter how good an actor you are.
>>
>>108001337
I can see why people would dislike her Homura, but it just fits for me, not knocking Saito-san at all. I do agree more vibrant girls like Cerebella and Lianshi ( are better for her. Hence why she'd probably be a good Nui.

Well for a language to be truely superior it needs to have certain criteria.
1. The language has to be easily teachable, regardless of previous language skills.
2. The language needs to be widespread so that way many people know of it.
3. The language has to be simple to understand with no words with multiple meanings and such.

Eh, I get the idea that the shift from localization has hurt the quality of dubs, too. Remember the 4Kids Yu-Gi-Oh dubs? They localized the Hell out of that thing (Joey instead of Jonouchi, Weevil instead of Haga) and it kinda worked because of it (and Dan Green). The KLK dub sounds like it could have benefited from changing the names into something the VA's could say without sounding so weebish. It's a lesser of two evils.
>>
>>108001512
The same way you would feel if someone butchered your name.

>>108001337
Homura was a terrible miscast, doesn't suit Vee's acting style in the least. If you ask me, her bast work is in the blazblue series, where she consistently performs with her one flaw being in the inability to do Nu-13's yandere laugh (she can pull off the giggle decently, but the laugh is very force and outright painful to listen to) and I've yet to see any english VA do a good yandere laugh.
>>
>>108001287
It depends. Especially for KLK you miss a LOT of things by reading. Keep in mind, an entire series of frames can move in the time it takes to read one line. The problem is compounded when the dialogue is continuous during a scene heavy on action.

I don't know how many times anons had to rewatch just the first episode of KLK because there were so many tiny details and things hidden in the scenes that you were basically guaranteed to miss if you were reading, which the nips probably caught.

Seriously, go watch the first episode again, and don't just ignore the subtitles, turn them off completely so you're eyes can just focus on the show.
It's an entirely liberating experience. I would never bother watching GitS:SAC1/2, Black Lagoon, Space Dandy, etc in moon because the dub cast already does a good job, and it seriously is a handicap during fast paced scenes. You may not notice that you're missing them, but you are. You aren't at ease to enjoy it as much because you're so focused on speedily reading any subs that come up.
Now I'm not shitting on subs at all. I find most dubs terrible, but what I'm saying is it would be nice to be able to enjoy a show wholly with my ears for dialogue and my eyes for animation instead of static text.

The first two points are really just a consequence of the third, if a language is logical and superior with it's information density and conveying of ideas ect. It will be simple to understand. But the international language is English and will remain English for the foreseeable future.

A superior language might be able to convey a complex idea that is not possible to convey in a more simple language.

But that's what the Japanese do also. Anime in general is so low budget that they have to cut corners in animating lip flaps, so they do pretty much what foreign language dubbers do to their anime.

I don't get why people bitch about pronunciation of Japanese words.

I don't think the names should be changed, but they should be pronounced according to English rules, not Jap ones. No one bitches when Japs butcher the English language, it's cute and endearing. It's obviously not endearing in reverse, since it just sounds regular, but I don't think it's a legitimate of dubs still that they mispronounce the names.
>>
>>108001736
This sounds like something Daiz would say when they fuck up the timing.
>>
>>108001600

But 4kids dubs were horrible. And the people who are interested in and buy these dubs are not small children who don't even know what anime is. It'd be like releasing left-to-right manga nowadays. Them saying names "without sounding so weebish" is not much of an issue at all, we're talking about acting.
>>
>>108001798
It's a legit criticism if they're inconsistent with their pronunciation. If they're gonna pronounce a name totally different from the way the Japanese pronounce it, they should at least stick with it to the end.

>>108001798
I bet you say carry-oakie.

>>108001770
>All you need to do is look at the line and then read it from your head.
This takes time though. If you watch subs right, you don't need to "read" it at all since you just pick up the words right away. Sometimes I can watch anime that way while browsing /a/ and multitask. But other times I have severe ADD and the "lag" time of reading the subs inteferes with watching the show, let alone doing anything else.

Very true my friend but the issue is that each language can convey things more efficiently. True English is the most widespread language and is the internationally accepted language for science, trade, and art. However that doesn't make it easy to learn. In fact English has been considered by many foreigners the most difficult language to learn. You do pose and interesting point about the conveying complex ideas. Each language has words for things that cannot be expressed through the others. English does admittedly have an advantage here for modern English has a habit of just taking the word and adding it to the dictionary

i'll be the first to tell retarded weebs that "No, you don't know that much about Japanese" and "No, you don't really get the nuances that come with it perfectly" and that they should stop saying that it doesn't match up right because it's fucking obvious that A) it will never perfectly match and B) expecting that much from a dub is impossible, but it doesn't mean dubs are inherently inferior and C) voiceacting for animation isn't typically a glamourous or high-paying thing unless you're big, see >>107999243 just look at how afraid shitposters are to reply to this, haha

I think you're missing the point. When it's one line, it's not so much of a problem, but when the characters a literally spewing line after line, you're forced to keep darting back and forth. After years of doing it, I'm extremely used to it and don't even notice I'm doing it, and don't think I'm missing anything, but you seriously are. It's the small things that compound into the overall experience. Seriously, just try watching a show high on action with dialogue happening during it, and then try turning subs off. It's like a shackle I didn't even know existed was removed.


>>108001909
I think you missed my point entirely. I never said I was okay with that either. I said it would be nice if the dubs were good so I wouldn't have to. I already said several times most dubs are terrible. All I said was the very few ones that are good, I'd watch in english.

I'd take a smaller pool (smaller than we have now, actually) if it meant weeding out some of the shit talent.

But regardless, they already are doing this. Bang Zoom is putting kids from conventions in front of the mic (and in some cases, talking them into their expensive voice-over classes for some extra dough) because the people that used to be doing this kind of work is moving on. It's a shame, too.

>>108001600
I rather like the Yu-Gi-Oh and Pokemon dubs that came out of 4Kids (well, in the case of Pokemon, the first five seasons). The later 4Kids seasons, the TAJ dub, and the current DuArt dub are textbook examples of how NOT do a dub. In this case, it's largely because of the script, which became so utterly stupid after season five that I pity each and every person to ever work on that show post-2002. They desperately need a new script adapter (the old voice talent was also MUCH stronger, but they burned those bridges). There's nothing wrong with rewriting a script to make it sound more natural to English speakers, but when you shit it up to the point where it's a hodgepodge of fourth-wall breaking, slang-filled alliteration that would make even Dr. Seuss say "damn, that's fucking stupid", then you've created a monster.

Full stop. You are are retarded. Japanese names do not have English pronunciations, only a few borrowed words from Japanese have accepted English pronunciations (Karate, Karaoke, Tsunami, Futon, Anime etc). Proper names do not. Failing to pronounce names correctly is just fucking sloppy.

And another thing: Japanese pronunciation is not hard, it's way more consistent than English at any rate. If you work in Japanese dubbing you should fucking learn how to pronounce Japanese words.

English has patterns of pronunciation independent from the pronunciation of specific words. You can guess how a gibberish word is pronounced just by how it's spelled and made. Therefore it makes sense that a Japanese word is pronounced differently when it's used in an English sentence, if you're not pronouncing it as a Japanese word.

>And another thing: Japanese pronunciation is not hard,
I didn't say it's hard, it's just a different set of rules.

>If you work in Japanese dubbing you should fucking learn how to pronounce Japanese words.
They don't work in Japanese dubbing, they work in English dubbing of Japanese anime. This is like saying the nips should learn how to pronounce Eru-erufu as L-Elf. They don't have to, it's pronounced eru-erufu.

Complaining about pronounciation is retarded, if you're going to be a weeb stick to Jap stuff. Dubs suck anyway.

Yeah, I was referring to the MN9 thing. She has a tumblr and makes fun of circumcision. Stop trying to fit in Nyanners.

They are entry level of the second degree. True entry level only watch anime on western TV.

Crunchy Roll and Netflix make a wider selection of anime available to entry level fans, but those places are still dominated by the most casual of casuals (Naruto is still the top show on CR I believe).

Yeah, 4Kids is notoriously horrible ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MLTlH7KB0Xk ), but they did do okay once in a blue moon. If the voice actors are the issue, like you say they are, then why showcase their faults even farther by filling their dialogue with names they can't say, instead of just letting them call the character "Ash" or "Tristan"?

On a show heavy on action with dialogue during those scenes? KLK Ep 3 is a good example of this. There's a lot of dialogue during the fight, especially after ryuuko gets slammed into the building. You can obviously see what's going on while reading, but you can't see the details that make a huge difference. I could see it, but a lot of the action with the desk movement always seemed to not make sense and look like a blur. Then I watched without subs and saw the smaller things like the desks being kicked, and tinier detail and was able to appreciate it that much more.
Yeah, I'm not exaggerating.
You might be one of those people who just skims over the subs and then complains about shit in threads when it was clearly explained in the show but you skimmed over it so fast, you never understood what you were reading.

> The Japanese animate to the seiyuu's lines.

Well, they animate to the script, and then they VA afterwards. It's still closer, though.

>There's nothing wrong with rewriting a script to make it sound more natural to English speakers

Depends on what you mean by rewriting. Honneamise may have pretty good dubbing, but every line was basically totally original, so much that you're not really watching a translation anymore, you're watching a new series. Imagine if japanese VA's and directors redubbed an anime and changed all the dialogue and names and wrote a whole new script, it would be too far removed.

I always pay extra special attention to animation in what I watch, so no I didn't.
