Fair enough. Thanks anon.

>>141100545
>>141100692
I, pretty strongly disagree. This is one of the few times where the dub REALLY is better. And this is one of like, 3 shows ever I would say that for.

The main cast is all really good, the writing pretty well done, and it's one of those shows where it very explicitly takes place in America, and all the characters are definitely speaking english in universe. It comes across as really weird in Japanese.

>>141101281
firstly, translations will never be superior the the language it was originally written in by technicality.

secondly, while the dub is one of the few good ones, there is no indicator this is an "muh murica" universe. giant fighting robots has always been a japan thing
>>
>>141100797
Don't listen to this guy >>141100692. The dub is one of the few that are better than the Japanese, along with Princess Tutu, Yu Yu Hakusho, and Lucky Star.

>>141101432
>yu yu hakusho

let me guess, you think major (GITS) is also a white american woman?
>>
>>141101428
>there is no indicator this is an "muh murica"
...what?

Paradigm City is literally New York City dude. Not to mention all of the text in universe is in english. The whole thing is VERY western inspired, and intentionally given a very western feel. Batman TAS was the primary fucking influence.

>firstly, translations will never be superior the the language it was originally written in by technicality
By technicality, no, there is nothing saying a translation can't be superior to the original. Something could be kinda shitty in it's original language, and translated by a more competent writer. Not that I'm saying that's what's happened here, just that it's possible.

But in any case, a sub is still a translation, just one not bound to trying to lip-sync, or fit the time space allotted.

Big O has relatively few shots of moving mouths, and pretty laxed pacing, allowing for a great deal of creative freedom for the dub writers. The dub and sub are pretty close, the only differences really coming from slightly different terms.

And specifically in The Big O's case, several of the lead voice actors are better in the dub, more critically Roger Smith himself.
>>
>>141101507
I'm not judging it based on whether it takes place in Japan or not. I always hate when people justify liking dubs just because the show is "in English and thus it's weird that they're hearing Japanese". I just think the dub for Yu Yu Hakusho generally just works better in terms of acting.
>>141101546
I don't.
>>
>>141101432
Don't forget Black Lagoon and P&S.
>>
>>141101680
I don't like anything relating to Panty and Stocking besides its art style and music. I also haven't seen enough of Black Lagoon to get an opinion of its voice tracks.

yea, roger is rich with a butler and a cool car, so western amirite

>no technically it isn't
too bad that's utter bullshit. you would know this if you could speak/read nip

subs will always be better because you can just listen to the VA's instead of reading or being force fed choppy at worst, and more accurate at best, jap-to-english

I'm not even sure what you're trying to convey here, but Paradigm is literally a post apocalyptic New York City. Every sign, newspaper, and TV is in English. The characters are clearly supposed to be speaking English.

Oh, I see, this is bait. That explains it.

Anon, give it a rest. It's fuckin America, whether the dub is better or not.
