Sam, why you do this to me. Anime cry


You don't HAVE to watch the dub. You can, y'know, watch an official subbed version. Or you can import the Japanese DVDs, learn Japanese and watch it that way. Not defending Saban, since they make 4kids level dubs(if not worse) but you don't need a dub. There are these things called subtitles, y'know

Oh hey, you never responded to my response to that nutty PM you sent me! What, did you not get the reaction you were trolling for?

Also lol you're defending this as just a "dub".

I'll take your word for it. However you can't deny that his sister wants to do "this and that" with him and is going to do everything possible to make sure he and she get "connected".


Wow its almost like some of us have watched the show and you haven't!

Anyway, the show is very dumb, but it was very devoted to being dumb in its own particular way, which made it rather charming.

I'm pretty sure Pretty Cure's been pandering to otaku since at least Smile. Also, Card Captor Sakura and Sailor Moon both got dubs, they were just horrific hack-jobs.
Those are just the barnacles that have encrusted themselves to Pre-Cure along the way. The true target demo was always and still is pre-teen girls. As for CCS and SM dubs, you can't compare audio dubbing of the 90's with dubbing technology of today. The VAs are also much more experienced today too.

FYI Pretty Cure is getting dubbed by Saban... Well, not "dubbed" as much as localized, I'm sure. It seems the working title is Glitter Force if you want to go by US Trademark applications.

It's still rumor based on a single Italian press release from RIA but I've basically confirmed it with my own sources.





WHY????

Crappy dub, like all of BW's dubs. The name changes and script changes were also bad. I wish all Japanese companies do what Miyazaki does and makes sure any dub changes go through them, rather than making their own shit up.
