the toonami thread moves at an incredible pace so yeah, a standalone thread would be good, even if it might not have many different posters. it'll also be nice to have for the eventual sub release, when i might actually watch it and have thoughts.

Eh, not to start a dub vs. sub fight, but for me FLCL is up there with Cowboy Bebop as a show that has a great dub that doesn't really lose you anything.

Although that's for the original series, no clue about the new series.

i don't really have anything against the original flcl dub, though it sounded like haruko's VA was struggling to hit the same voice all these years later for 2 and 3. subs work better for me because it requires more focus and is usually the original take anyway. dubs also have the mixed bag of whether the sound is mixed well enough that i can actually pick out and parse voices, and i'd probably still have closed captions on to make sure i didn't miss anything even for a dub.

It's the same color as her forelock, so I'll assume that it's just some of her hair. There's no need to assume that all of the horse girls' hair is the same color in a given area from the top down to the scalp, especially since most of them have multicolored hair anyway.

Nope - they have specialized phones that are extra tall to reach their horse ears and everything.

The official Twitter accounts of voice actors and actresses Toshiki Masuda, Megumi Nakajima, and Kiyono Yasunoall announced their resignations from their respective roles in the television anime of MINE's [New Life+] Young Again in Another World(Nidome no Jinsei o Isekai de) light novel series on Wednesday.

Original creator MINE has recently been involved in controversy regarding his alleged insults and discriminatory remarks directed at China and South Korea, along with allegedly discriminatory content within the story of the novels themselves.

ANN hasn't bothered to actually translate anything, but his personal statements are supposed to be incredibly bad.

The ANN comments are decrying the might of communism exerting its power upon anime.

This one instance of a talent agency stepping back from a production with some inflammatory history is like step 2 on the 2000 step path to judge dredd world and you people are applauding.

There's a single comment about communism and several others agreeing with the decision or at least decrying the authors racism. But don't let this chance to feel more enlightened than people posting on a different anime forum go by.

Also if anybody is curious about what's inflammatory besides the authors bad tweets, the main character is explicitly a war criminal who killed thousands of Chinese during the war.

It'd be helpful if ANN translated more of the context, but :shrug:. The main character apparently explicitly loses his memories upon being isekai'd, so it's really pointless besides that being the author's choice of how to give backing to his personality.

Sharkopath
May 27, 2009

It's a background that seems extremely unnecessary unless you have something to say about killing thousands of Chinese with a katana.

you could have easily just made him a samurai in some random sengoku lord's service who got his killing experience killing other japanese and had that be his backstory. the fact that you specifically chose a scenario in which hes killed thousands of chinese is, well, weird.

good on the author for giving an actual apology, at least.
