The Manga had Better Voices

We don't talk about American Captain Harlock.

[@absolutezrow]

Yes this is a real dub people paid actual money for. It lasted 2 episodes & nobody working on it took anything seriously.

[@helli0n]

Reminds me of the Omni Production dubs of Transformers Masterforce & Headmasters.

[@Schwarzorn]

Sounds like you described a Funimation dub.

[@roxassora2706]

"it's big and black"

[@MistaBrandoVA]

So old is the dub? Was it around the time of the original or years later? Goofy stuff like this fascinates me!

Thank you for this, Kenny "it wasn’t a person, dad, I think it’s a woman." -American Captain Harlock.

I'm pretty sure I heard that same joke in several American shows growing up. Horny teen boy fawning over a hot female. "She's not just a person, Dad. She's a W O M A N"

The only American Captain Harlock that matters is the time in the 80's Star Wars comic when Lando cosplayed as him. Seriously, look it up.

[@Pan_Z]

Still less silly than what Disney did with Stat Wars

[@oneinathousand2156]

I just learned about that recently and I NEED to read those comics.

Interesting fun fact: The guy who voiced Harlock in this dub also voices Seth in the Street Fighter games.

[@FlavioCrusiGrisari]

It's actually Richard rossner. the va you mentioned, has a deeper voice on Harlock

[@autocon2002]

I silently flailed my body like someone in an epileptic fit when Harlock said "I jumped"

[@mastermarkus5307]

@@Schwarzorn They also do a fair amount of good dubs. I can't think of any "abridged series" style ones, but I also don't look through their whole back catalogue including the shitty otaku-bait series that they sometimes buy and dub for some reason even though I can't imagine that it has a western audience.
