oh, boy misread this post. I'd imagine they decided to dub SAO because it's extremely popular here, and it will sell Last edited by getchman on Tue Apr 09, 2013 9:24 am; edited 1 time in total |

Watched the video. Voice my opinion to the masses, please, Mr. Horse.

I always prefer dubs to subs but I didn't really like it.... I guess Asuna is okay a bit younger sounding than i would of liked but I dunno Kirito's voice doesn't sit well with me. He doesn't sound youthful enough. He sounds kind of constipated and middle aged.

The YouTube video still doesn't work. What a load of crock.

There is this wonderful dub of the opening and closing theme of SAO season 1 on youtube made by Amanda Lee, I want to see AoA use them. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MO60ahwc8FI |

Kirito sounded like he was taking everything over seriously. "I AM GONNA DIE IF I DIE IN THIS GAME!" HOLY FRIGGIN SHIT SHERLOCK! Asuna's voice also just don't feel right. |

Well, I pretty much got every God damn guess of mine wrong in terms of dubs. Either I'm losing my touch, or I'm just really old.
Come to think, why do I even care? The anime was pretty overrated, kinda like an updated .hack without the gender confusions and subtle yuri hints, and the second half just seemed unnecessary overall. |

I'm not a fan of Sentai (mostly because they don't seem to care too deeply about the original series, like with Guin Saga and Penguindrum ---thanks Foster!---), but Funimation seems to have a decent track record! The only BangZoom series that comes to mind as having a *great* dub is Wolf's Rain, and that was quite a while ago. The only other title that comes to mind is Madoka, and that wasn't really up-to-snuff. As for the small little snippet of the dub that we got to sample, I'd say it's sounding okay so far. SAO wasn't a masterpiece by any means, so the quality of the dub doesn't sacrifice the integrity of the original work, and actually is decent, from what we've heard. The only problem seems to be Bryce, who sounds like he's going to overact, not to mention his voice doesn't seem to suit the character. Well, time to place our faith in Aniplex, I guess. At least we get a dub for the price we pay this time, unlike Bakemonogatari, which was priced just the same yet devoid of one (not that it could be dubbed well...)! |

Wow. This trailer is only under 3 minutes long and yet all the subbies are whining and moaning about supposed miscasts and bad acting.
I guess Animeoverviewer and Gigguk have wasted their breaths talking about these damn weaboos are since no one seems to listen. |

I believe Animaze dubbed Wolf's Rain. Mary Elizabeth McGlynn was an incredible director for that one. |

Sounds fine. Yet another case of the dub representing the property in question for what it is and taking shit for it.
