In terms of narrative, art quality, and funniness, he's right.

I've long been fascinated with how the alt-right develops elaborate and obscure dog whistles to try to communicate their meaning without having to say it out loud
Stepan Andreyevich Bandera being the most prominent example of that
Aw man how did I miss a k-on slapfight. Namtab pretend I retroactively made a snarky comment or something.

Huh, I was wondering why that bit was different just yesterday. That's a neat little touch.

Has anyone here tasted those candies, by the way? Wondering how the sourness stacks up to something like Warheads, as I heard that Japanese candy tends to be less intensely flavored than most stuff in the west.

Is that Edea from Bravely Default as Hotaru? I seem to be hearing her all of the place in recent game/anime dubs if so.

That was okay. Hotaru sounds like the VA is getting her first lead. Coconuts is super recognizable, because I recently started re-watching Soul Eater and whether in English or Japanese, Death the Kid is unforgettable. The dad sounds super familiar, too! Like I can't quite put my finger on it, but he's an old hand for sure.

Did I just say that out loud~~?!!!

But it's a good dub? Hotaru sounds a bit like Tiffany Grant! Her weird off-kilter delivery fits quite well. I wasn't very impressed with the original Japanese VA work to begin with, so that's nice.

No? The show is specifically about candy that only exists in Japan.

And? I'm guessing that the show's gotten pretty popular and it's a pretty simple & colourful comedy about Japanese candy, it's not like they have to care about if people can purchase the candy themselves

Hotaru's inflection is really weird. Otherwise not awful or anything. Probably wouldn't watch a show all about Japanese candy dubbed though...

was somebody selling a Dagashi Kashi set of that stuff or did you somehow assemble it piece by piece? i've seen some assorted sets online but they mostly have stuff that 1) wasn't in the series or 2) is bad

Don't know if they're going to do any more of these packs specifically but there are some other dagashi boxes on the site

An anime about Japanese candy getting dubbed is peanuts compared to an anime made specifically to market an MMORPG that will never officially be released outside Japan getting dubbed, I dunno about y'all
