Dubbin? Doesn't bother me, don't wear leather boots....

No,no,no Dubbing, annoys me, especcially when you get it in cheap crappy detergent adverts from spain, or even from England, but the actor speaks like a fish barking, and they dub him! Arrggh!. Everyone should have a babel fish, that way you would need neither subtitles nor dubbing.

SUBBING!

I can't stand it when people completely screw over character personalities with english voices... perfect example: card captor sakura. Madison (japanese: tomoyo) should be a quiet, polite sounding girl - however the american actor for the part sounds like an average, annoying american voice :p (no offense to americans, I just don't like it in anime)
Science alone of all the subjects contains within itself the lesson of the danger of belief in the infallibility of the greatest teachers in the preceding generation . . .Learn from science that you must doubt the experts. As a matter of fact, I can also define science another way: Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts. - Richard Feynman

well, we seem to be getting a trend here. and it comes to me just now, how many english members we have. There are a lot more europeans in PXO. Then of course, while I visit PXO most americans sleep.

Tiara?! What'd you do to him!?

BTW, I think The One was actually pretty good, and the storyline was actually passable...

(BTW: This is a HUGE anime debate that's been going on forever)


You are a moron. You prefer raping the art just because you can't follow subtitles? People like you need to die, very painfully.

I think I've made my preference on this quite clear.

so surprising, when you criticize over the same ridiculous cliche :rolleyes:
btw, petrarch descriptions sounds an awful lot like comics...
I know it's wrong, but how does it feel for those who don't like mangas but like comics to read that? many people think comics are like that, just as you think mangas are like that. You know the difference between comics and mangas?
comics are US, mangas are japanese. That's about all ( oh yes, and US super heroes have ridiculous outfits). Wouldn't even say there's a difference of drawings, when I see stuff like danger Girl, american comics look more and more like manga :ha:

No dubbing here in Finland either. Luckily, because there isn't a signle competent actor in the whole damn country(I'm serious).

I've seen some dubbed german shows, they were drop-dead funny, for the wrong reasons though.

I learned to speak a bit german while watching the dubbed programs (cartoons :D) from RTL2 :wink:
It helped a lot when I took german courses at school.

Ich denke, dass diese Sprache nicht ebenso schwierig ist, wie die meisten Menschen scheinen zu glauben. Obwohl die Grammatik sehr schwierig ist, ist die Rest ziemlich einfach.

Its probably not 100% correct though :p
