yeah that bit is insane. it's one thing not to care for the material but why make this moral stance about how you won't... let the manga author have an inoffensive joke cameo at the end?

overall i do think discotek deserves a hit for this because they're the ones who accepted a deal to get a dub done literally through free labor involving people who turned out to hate the material. not on like, an anti-loc grounds that was just a very stupid idea that worked out about as expected

It's frankly been far too long since we had a dub that was a proper trainwreck, and I'm glad we've returned to the natural order of things

the sound engineer loved the show and wanted a dub produced, but they needed it done cheaply since it wasnt seen as worth it, it was just a labor of love

since it wasnt really being done for money there was little oversight and the process wasnt professional, ergo this person got involved and got their hands all over it

Not a good look for Discotek, but also holy cow that person is deranged as poo poo.

“This is all terrible and only I can fix it!”

Did you ever stop to consider people that people like a thing for a reason and you are not the sole arbiter on what is good? Like, it sucks for the cast who put in some work, but this has me not wanting anything to do with watching that dub. I’ll probably still get the Blu-Ray for better picture. If you wanted to give ammo to the “localizers are out to ruin the things I loved” this moron gave them ammunition to use for years. Discotek should probably refuse this on the cheap dub work in the future. Look at a Kickstarter if you want one that badly.

I feel bad for the dubbing studio since one of the founders (Amber Lee connor) was really fond of the series.

the part where he says "itd be unprofessional if my co-director did this, but im a freelancer and my opinions are mine, haha!" and then links to an imgur album of discord screenshots where both of them are saying this poo poo is so wild. just absolutely throwing your friend under the bus with you

really bizarre thing to have happened, and its bizarre that the ceo of sound cadence got this whole thing together as a passion project over her love for the show, and then handed it to these people?

it seems like it was basically done extremely cheaply and fly-by-night. if you look at the discord screenshots all the dates are really close together.

i dont think thats true. the whole reason he links it is because its about how the process made them better friends. its just a deeply stupid thing to do to your friend.

oh yeah, but thats what I mean. discotek was basically convinced to do this by sound cadence, because the ceo loves the show, and they squeeze every connection and favor they have with literally everyone to get this done as cheaply as possible, and then you get burned by your own people shittalking your passion project like this. i feel bad for connors, but also like, probably do some general oversight on your people lol
