Learning that Funi was funded by rick santorum or whatever made that make alot more sense in hindsight.

Sometimes the English Dubs are bad and sometimes they're good. However the japanese is always good, and if it isn't I can't tell as I don't speak japanese.

kirbysuperstar posted:remember when funi tried to remove the gay from maid dragon I don't think it was funimation but I remember the dub of Cardcaptor Sakura which did the same thing which resulted in them having to splice, like, three original episodes together for every episode they broadcast in the US (also I would bet cash money that the only reason they even brought it over in the first place is because it has "Card" in the title and pokemon cards were hugely popular)

they also tried to make syaoran the main character because they thought boys wouldn't want to watch a show about sakura

DoubleDonut posted:I don't think it was funimation but I remember the dub of Cardcaptor Sakura which did the same thing To be fair that was the original dub (which is apparently so hacked up that a lot of fans flat out consider it a separate series). A better, uncut dub was eventually made years later.

Waffleman_ posted:I've seen this a lot with Netflix licensed shows, where the sub scripts are pretty bad and the dub scripts are written by people who know a thing or two. Sometimes the subs script isn't edited at all, while the dub script is, which is apparently how things get run at Funi.

Willo567 posted:so with a dub, has there ever been an instance where a line changed in a dub to match the mouth flip flap ends up changing the meaning of what a character says You realize this happens with subs too. Some companies value having a readable "characters per second" speed at all times, and to do this they cut extra details in a line so it appears shorter on screen instead of having to think more about editing. Like for example, I've seen lines where the subtitles leave out things like an event happening five years ago, or a character's mom being divorced.

For me, they're like tea and coffee, so I can enjoy a good dub/localization as well as a solid OG performance. Also I think the Japanese dubs for Zootopia and Spider-Verse were super good.

Well, you get around it by creative editing, but if you're not paid to try, why bother?

I don't think I could watch Hellsing Ultimate without the over-the-top accents everyone has. From what I understand the Japanese voice track didn't have anything resembling that. What I really like is when they go through the effort to make characters multilingual, like in the Japanese track of Full Metal Panic where people were speaking English, Italian or Cantonese depending on the scene setting. It was probably poorly accented but I appreciate the effort. The Fujiyama Gangsta Paradise arc in Black Lagoon was also really cool with Revy not knowing wtf anyone was saying and for the English dub it would have been better if they kept all the Japanese people speaking Japanese with subtitles, although I understand why they might not want to go that route. It would have made some scenes make more sense like that poor fucker in the bowling alley trying to beg Revy to spare him with his lovely English.
