What about the magic knight rayearth dub that needs fixing.

[@mr.smithsgovermentclass4556]

As a United States Marine, I can confirm that we can sound as dumb as that dub portrays us. All it's missing is a philosophical debate on the virtues of which color crayon tastes the best... (Hint: It's always the red ones) Also, as a Texan, I have always enjoyed hearing a "Southern Accent" in my Chinese cartoons. If done right,, it's an easy way to help distinguish between characters. A good example could be ChuChu from Show by Rock!!! It wasn't instantly obvious from her character's introduction, but as the show went on, her southern drawl came out more often and even used Southern colloquials like "Sugah" and "Y'all". A potentially bad example could be the old English dub of Sailor Moon. Anyone who's seen it can INSTANTLY recall "Molly" or "Melvin's" voice. I didn't mind them, but it's a counter point I'd be remiss in pointing out.

[@Katt1721]

I probably would have subbed out Ancient Magus Bride for something else at first glance, but I do think its inclusion brings up an interesting point. Even without the accents, I think its still a good dub, and I thought the casting was pretty spot-on (relative newbies, lead actors that typically don't get lead roles, etc...). I think the choice of accents is simply up to the director's discretion on how comfortable they are with them (and maybe Kyle Phillips wasn't, compared to someone like say, Caitlin Glass)? I actually forgot the whole "Chise singing in Japanese" thing wasn't a stylistic choice instead of a mandate. I thought it was kind of cool and made complete sense that her lullaby from childhood she sings to Elias would be something in her first language (Japanese), and not English. I do wonder how the dub would sound if given to a director who *would* use accents, but I'd rather have no accents than terrible ones. And considering 90% of the cast would have some type of accent/regional speech pattern, that could have easily happened. That being said, a UK dub (or at least a studio that hires UK actors more often) would have been really cool as well, and I hope that's something we see outside of niche stuff like the Emma kickstarter. As far as dubs I would like to see re-done... maybe Perfect Blue? Even the acting + casting choices aside (not all of it is bad, maybe a bit dated), the sound quality is downright awful. I also wish the Trust & Betrayal OVA had a better dub, but I dunno about anyone touching that property right now. Its tough. I find it much easier to think of shows/movies that need a dub period.

[@PrinceMallow]

Looking forward to the video on Cardcaptor Sakura because a property that well loved needs a properly done dub. On one hand we have a dub that removes any and all elements of gay and on the other hand we have one where Tomoyo sounds like Ralph Wiggum. No, really, she sounds like Ralph Wiggum in the Animax dub. Go watch the first couple episodes. You will not be able to unhear it.

[@muslimmetalman]

You could far more easily make that to be the case for DBZ & Yugoh

[@juliantapia1407]

That's because Animax is a trash studio. They literally have not had a single dub worth watching that another company didn't do better. Even Cardcaptor for all its edits and honestly ruining of the romantic aspect of the show, was a far superior dub

[@tdwinnerfordinner]

Well, my ideal dub would Liliana Mumy do Tomoyo; it would also have Tara Strong as Sakura and Grey Griffin as Kero. But that’s just me.

[@muslimmetalman]

I’ve got to say on the topic of accents, it seems odd but in the context of being a dub makes a lot of sense to generally use accents that give off the vibe that the original language production does.

[@CornishCreamtea07]

I thought the accents in Princess Principal where for the most part good. There maybe some better ones, but they have the advantage of having some British Expats.

[@Pluveus]

Here's a hot take for you all, with the exception of Sabat as Piccolo, I actually prefer the Canadian cast to the Funimation cast for the characters that were introduced at the time. We can keep Laura Bailey as Trunks, because Laura Bailey. **Harp music, sparkles**

[@brandonlyon730]

Here’s the thing with the British accent, it was never a thing until the 1800’s during Queen Victoria’s reign. So if your setting is in the Industrial Age Britain like In “Moriarty the Patriot” then it’s understandable. But before that time pre-industriation, having none British accents can technically be accurate to the story it takes place in.

[@NitroNEXT]

Thank you for mentioning the Canadian Dragon Ball Z cast! I would love to hear more of Scott McNeil and Brian Drummond in the movies, or any other Dragon Ball material for that matter. Also, for clarification: The first three Z movies were actually Pioneer's doing. Those three dubs (which were actually all uncut) had very little to do with Saban, even Funimation were more hands-off with them as they were fully produced by Pioneer, hence the more faithful approach to music and script. The original TV version of Tree of Might on the other hand (with censorship, Saban music and Ian Corlett as Goku) was a different version altogether and was more of a Funimation/Saban production like the series, although Saban's role was mostly facilitating airtime and providing musical scores. Long story short; The TV Ocean dub of Tree of Might is completely separate from the uncut Pioneer Ocean dub despite both having the Canadian cast. The uncut Ocean versions only exist on the old Pioneer DVD sets, even Funimation didn't re-release them on their Rock the Dragon collectors set.

[@n-riv8101]

I still to this campaign for Crunchyroll or WHOEVER has the goddamn rights to get the Ocean team back to dub the rest of the Gintama anime including reducing those first 49. I also said this last video, but as unpopular as this opinion is I can live without the majority of the hack dubs not being redubbed mainly because the ones I grew up on I have a close connection to. The only ones I would want are Rave Master and to a lesser extent Shaman King. Rave Master because I want to read the manga and then watch how the anime adapted it like it originally was. Shaman King I'm okay with just because at the very least we're getting the remake which (hopefully) will get dubbed, and obviously is gonna be uncut.

12:22 There was also Samurai Pizza Cats which apparently Saban didn't have the script for or something but I really do NOT trust the source of that info and it doesn't really make much sense in my eyes to begin with, it was Saban's job to translate it in the first place, why would they need the script for that when they could do it by ear?

[@pablocasas5906]

One of my favorite lines from Dragon Ball Z's Latin American Spanish dub is from the Cell Saga when Vegeta complains about cell copying his lines. I think Vegeta said something like "Maldito, no solo copió mis células, sino también mis diálogos" (Curse him, not only he copied my cells, but also my phrases)

22:29 In PSO2 some of the idol NPC, Quna's songs are accurate to the Japanese version which leads to awkward note holds in place of awkward pauses even though the lip sync was never a priority being that it's a video game, let alone one with a budget localization. (and that budget localization is a _massive_ disservice to one of the biggest online games in Japan alongside FFXIV and Dragon Quest X and the worst part is that there apparently was still crunch involved if an out of context tweet from one of the people who worked on the localization is any indicator, which for a localization that was eight years late is definitely something that goes beyond how bad Cyberpunk 2077's crunch was and is closer to Duke Nukem Forever)

Mostly with Elda Maaka, Karin's grandmother. Karin herself was actually dubbed by an at-the-time 17 year old American actress, so the 15 year old Karin Marker had an appropriate voice. Karin's dad reminded me of James from Pokemon, and Winner was... odd. If you're familiar with this series, I'd like to hear your thoughts.

3:03 Don't play PSO2 with the English audio lest you be cursed with Afin's Britstralian accent. (which his sister notably doesn't have and really none of them should even have, I think the only reason they even tried to give him a British accent is because he calls the player character "Aibou" in Japanese which they translated as "mate" but why didn't they go with "partner" or "buddy"?

Yes, I know there's a BW dub for DB, but from what I've seen it's a step down from their GT dub, mainly in the scripting. Still better than Funi, but not better enough to be a great alternative IMO. Plus the preservations I've found are much lower quality than the GT preservations and are much less watchable as a result.

15:40 appearing in cartoon cipher is basically the equivalent of a stan lee cameo.

BanG Dream Season 2 needs to be redubbed. No way a dub that bad can be produced in 2020. About half of the main characters were poorly cast. The dub was so controversial, one of the VAs (and she was one of the good voices in all of it) was harassed off Twitter. We need another studio besides Sentai Filmworks to dub the other seasons.

There is a difference between regional dialects and foreign accents. I actually do NOT want Italian and French Accents in English Dubs of shows set in those countries because what foreign communicates is people NOT speaking their native language. The only time there has ever been a Japanese Accent in an Anime Dub was Princess Principal where it was communicating exactly what it as meant to. Before Princess Principal and Azure Lane I was very iffy on the concept of Dub actors trying British Accents, but those shows proves they can do it. I don't mind BAD German Accents when they're Nazis, Nazis should sound stupid. Oh so Rebecca's too old to play RIka but your fine with for Kid Goku bringing back the same person who voiced for an unreleased 80s Dub?

[@TheCartoonCipher]

No need to worry, admittedly I wrote that bit about Rebecca w/o having seen all of the show so I didn’t understand that the character inevitably need an adult voice too. Rika’s a tricky character to voice and I guess seeing the dub actress’s age compared to the seiyuu coloured my impression of her performance. We’ll be more thorough in talking about the dub VAs for Higurashi once we do a full video on it >.< Interesting point about European accents too! When I wrote the bit about Arte I just kind of assumed an English dub might try Italian accents...even though a lot of English-language films set in various parts of Europe don’t use the accents either.

[@MasikoY]

Or they could do like what is done with real actors and just get people with said accents. Dubs can be good if 1:you have the proper talent chosen and 2: you have competent writers.

It's so weird to hear Barbara Goodson playing a character that isn't Naota from FLCL. All I can hear is Naota when I hear her acting

[@TheGerkuman]

In regards to Ancient Magus Bride, studios like Funimation need to contract in more british VA's (or german ones for dies irae).

[@SuiteLifeofDioBrando]

Higurashi could use a good dub.

[@understanableyeeezy3154]

I need to talk to the one who has creates that thumbnail it'll only take 5 minutes. 🔫👿

[@gundambassexe31]

I actually don't mind ancient magus bride tbh

Ghost Stories was an official abridged dub series and I wouldn't change it for the world.

[@amirgriffin2546]

When are you guys gonna make that video about Union dubs? 😭😭

[@saltissalty3833]

I've been thinking about it, and I would love to see anime dubbed in the UK and the Philippines. (I'm aware English is a second language, but lets try anyways).

[@SlapstickGenius23]

DBZ has a pretty so okay its average Pinoy English dub too, which has Mr Nesty Calvo Ramirez voice Goku.

[@TheSHIELDCap]

Actually, *Kaitou Saint Tail* is arguably the best Pinoy English dubbed anime that I ever watched and I watched all of its 43 episodes. The dub makes you feel that it's "a show that you should never miss." I hope some distributor would release its whole Pinoy English dub someday.

[@thomasffrench3639]

I mean there was Philippine dubs for Voltes V and Daimos

[@SerenGetter]

The DBZ specials (Bardock & Trunks) really need the redub, they're easily the worst dubbed and haven't been revisited like the DBZ Uncut dub & Kai dub. I'd love the movies to get the redub but I doubt itd happen, and luckily only the worst Z movies have the worst dubs. Don't redub GT unless you can get Stephanie Nadolny, she's a perfect kid goku

[@russelldrake7553]

I enjoy it when anime dubs use western references for western fans. The Sarah fucking Palen joke made me laugh so hard

[@pablocasas5906]

Here in Latin America some dubs, especially those made in Mexico, sometimes include regional jokes, in some aspects they can be useful in the case of shows like The Simpsons where there're certain references that wouldn't make sense for us. Shows like Kids Next Door, Adventure Time, Cow & Chicken, Jhonny Bravo, Time Squad, Ed, Edd 'n Eddy, Top Cat and even anime like Pokémon and Komi-san had some added jokes in their Latin American Spanish dubs

[@russelldrake7553]

Exactly, these days they call that being unfatefull to the sauce material. But in my opinion it is just a wat of servicing the fans just a little more

[@pablocasas5906]

@@russelldrake7553 that kind of reminds me what happened with the dub of an anime called "Dotto! Koni-chan", the series itself was directed by Shinichi Watanabe, who also directed Excel Saga, and the show itself is a comedy with a lot of weird Japanese humor. For some reason it got picked up in Latin American and it was given a dub, and since the show was so weird, the dubbing team rewrote the show adding a lot of Mexican humor, pop culture references and a lot of risqué jokes (which was weird, because I remember watching it during the daytime). The show and its dub gained a cult following in Latin America due to its humor
