Eh, world leaders being loving idiots and actually poor at speaking (which makes it a bastard to translate) is an unfortunately very common occurrence.

If you mean in scope, probably yeah, point.

Car in initial D was picked for its downhill racing performance. It's got the features like good brakes and turning radius you want for drifting.

The AE86 is a tiny, light weight, 2-door, rear wheel drive car that handles well. For exclusively downhill racing, raw horsepower doesn't matter nearly as much as these other attributes that let a good driver carry speed through corners where a heavier, more powerful car would have to brake harder and longer.

It's also because Keiichi Tsuchiya drove a AE86, and Takumi is very very loosely based on him.

Probably handles snow just like any other rear wheel drive car that has no traction control or antilock brake system; you will get to practice drifting weather you want to or not.

Much like with any profession, you're going to find yourself working alongside some choice characters and assholes. I guess what I'm saying is that while it may be disappointing, it's hardly surprising that there are a bunch of lovely people in the dubbing community.

Junpei from Persona was also Vic Mcfunnyjoke, so I think that game might be cursed.

God, I feel so goddamn old that I got kinda nostalgic from hearing Lina, Zelgadis and Gourry sounding more or less the same after all these years.

Cool, now give us another anime season.

That said, it’s odd that Amelia was silent during that ad. I wonder if they were able to get her original VA back (I think she might be doing idol work these days).

Oh that was her? Guess it’s been a while as that did not sound like her VA at all (unless she had a voice clip when it showed an original character wearing her outfit).

Yeah, I’ve been slowly reworking my way through the series recently via the dub so I guess I forgot what the original sounded like (I just assumed some generic game announcer took over when they showed her).

Well cool that they’re doing this but I really would prefer another anime series.

Out of curiosity, did Tales of the Rays get an English release? And if so, is it any good?

Also the novels have started up again so they’d actually have something to promote as well (don’t remember if Revolution/Evolution-R were based on a novel or if they were 100% anime original ala Try though).
