Think of the old saying "this is why we can't have nice things" basically. Which is why we also ask users to simply report such bait because responding just feeds it.

Doubtful, since it took people over two months to "discover" the "problem" with Dragon Maid's dub. Not to mention that it's far from Funimation's most egregiously rewritten show. |
Exactly. I mean, I thought Danganronpa was WAAAAAY more deserving of a lashing than Dragon Maid. If they made jokes about women's rights it would have been slaughtered.
Hagakure's Wild Stallions/stoner thing, Monokuma becoming Gilbert Gottfried, Junko's valley girl speech, all the memes, regardless of whether you think that's funny (I really don't) it's something they should have been far more harshly criticised for given how at odds it is with the English adaptation of the game. Not to mention the English cast is just a mess with some of the game's cast returning, others not, and Johnny's scheduling issues which lead to him being replaced towards the end (Not anyone's fault, but it kinda does affect its overall quality).
I think it's a lot more worthy of discussion than like... 3 slightly iffy jokes about slut shaming in an otherwise very well made dub. Yet at the same time, you don't see me calling out the scriptwriter by name in a thread that has nothing to do with them and harrassing them on social media. Especially considering, y'know, the dub came out months ago and it's not worth getting all that frustrated about.

I thought Lupin the 3rd part IV was dubbed ages ago, and given by the cast I thought it was a Bang Zoom! dub.

The dub is only just being released, first airs on Adult Swim & then streams on FUNimation. Dubbed by Bang Zoom.

What I meant with my comment is that you can do something to stop Funimation of using an Shonen Jump Weekly agenda. You can make a petition to change.org or something. Complaining in forums that all anime dubs and subs are bad is not solving the problem with Funi. I still haven´t seen people try something to tell them to better their localizations

I wish they could get the original Saiyuki cast back. I know Braden Hunt hasn't done anything in YEARS but it would be worth it...to get him back

I can see David Matranga & Greg Ayres returning. Braden Hunt did return for Saiyuki Gaiden in 2013 and no other roles. Its not impossible, of course we can forget about Illich Guardiola...

Probably due to it being the summer. |
Good point. I would guess that the consistent 8 PM time was used so it was easier to keep track of when episodes were available, and so they could transition from one show to the next in one sitting. Personally, I'm ok with the change since it will be more like before when I would get home from work and the episodes would already be available.

Honestly feels like there's been a whole lot of nothing from Funimation worth watching as of late. Maybe I should test the waters some before saying that but the winter season there was a ton I was enjoying but spring and summer just have nothing leaping out at me at all, not really helped by how I've pretty much completely stopped caring about My Hero Academia anymore. Kind of feels like I'm shelling out more for the archive content than anything these days and even that I don't use as much as I should.

yup the summer SimulDubs are very disappointing. I would of liked it better if they had just did some backlog dubbing for the summer. It just feels like there dubbing whatever they can to fill slots rather than going for quality. Then again there was only one anime I was looking forward to so I really wasn't going to be that happy with whatever they announced. And of course there not dubbing it so it's off to CR for this season.
