Does this mean I can dub my own anime?

I think that all depends if you can put your own animation into the machine. It says that you'll be able to record voiceovers for anime that already exist.

I'm sure some people will do a better job than the actual people who get hired. And then upload it on youtube.

Seems pretty useless to me, especially if you can't add your own source material to dub.

Besides, there are already plenty of fan-dubbers on youtube.

Sure some people might do a better job but I'll bet that the majority of people who do that will suck.

Sounds really cool, but it's probably gonna be exclusive to Japan. If not, I'd spend the money for it.

Ya know....... I actually like this idea.

Oh God. When this gets released we're probably going to have bunch of crappy fandubs uploaded on youtube to watch. Woooonderful.....

If I had a lot of cash to throw around, I'd buy something like this. I always end up doing voices when I'm reading manga alone. It gets awkward when people catch me doing it.

Being one that has actually been involved in fandubs and original animated voice overs...

I like the idea greatly. ^__^
