As anime's tend to do when they're translated from Japanese for an American audience.

You do realise it was originally in Japanese, right?

I thought the translation of Spirited Away was better. Some of the voice actors in the American version of Princess Mononoke were kinda crap, like that guy with the red nose.

I know it was originally Japanese. I just don't normally have the resources to get things in original Japanese, or even with dubs.

Really? I thought pretty much all Ghibli DVDs had both the Japanese, and English.

At least every one that I've ever seen.

Maybe if you got it out on video, but who does that nowadays?

Yeah man, I bought it on VHS. It was before DVD's were mass produced.

It featured Minnie Driver as Lady Eboshi, Jada Pinkett Smith as one of the inron worker women, Billy Bob Thorton as the monk guy, and Billy Crudup as Ashitaka.

The all star cast and the superb story made that movie an epic masterpiece.

Ever try watching it in the original Japanese? Y'know, without your little all-star American cast?

Mononoke-hime's one of the few anime I can actually stand English dubbed. I agree with him on the excellent job done by the American cast. The only other two I've found that I've liked as much as the originals (or better) are Kiki's Delivery Service and the Tenchi series, lol.

Anime Rules!!!

Ok...

Come to find out that Johnny Yong Bosch is up for best american voice actor in a comedy and best overall male voice actor for the american anime awards.

One for best comedy is because of Akira

God, the laughter... IT JUST WON'T STOP. THIS LIST OF NOMINEES MADE OF SHITFUCKING FAIL.

I just have to ask this. Is English your first language? If so, are you mentally disabled? I refuse to believe that someone 16 years-old could type like this. I need to know.

Kiki's delivery service is somehow better to me when I watch it around Halloween.

I guess the fact that she's a witch just adds to it.

It's alright. Just keep learning. Eventually we might turn you into someone who's bearable to have around.

As quoted in various animations:

"Jyuu nen hayain da."

I just discovered three new anime titles via Anime Network on Demand:
Kidou Shinsengumi Moeyo Ken - a series that takes place in Meiji-era Japan in which monsters register with the government to get the equivalent of a dog license. The cat-monster of the main character sounds like Paul Lynde in the US version, but otherwise it kicks ass.
Air Gear - combines high-tech rollerblades, comedy, and loads of fan-service (including full-frontal nudity).
Pani Poni Dash - maybe it's better in Japan, but it seemed to me like the poor man's Negima. A super-genius 10-year-old girl graduates from MIT and teaches in Japan.
Divergence Eve - I've heard a lot of good things about this series, especially about the mecha and hot chicks at the core of its plot. I'm watching the first episode now.

Sorry, I noticed Divergence Eve in the middle of writing the previous post and forgot to change that number to four.

How do I member?

Man-o-man It's been ages.. Almost a whole year now.
I wonder if I'm still actually in this club still.. *Checks website*

Otaku <3!

Perhaps that's because the same woman does both the male type voice and the female type voice, lol.

Hey, I was wondering if anyone happened to look at the animation snippet I linked to earlier. =3 Am I being paranoid (today's secret word, heheh!) that you disliked it, or was it lost in the enormity of my mega-post, lol?

Thanks, I will try my damnedest to keep food plentiful.

I could stand some L.A. Blue Girl. :P I got to watch some with my friends at a con a couple years ago, and I never laughed so hard at an anime until then.

Hells. Yes. I'm a huge fan, it's a hilarious series.

Oh fuck that, Sarah Strange > Richard Cox by a longshot.

Ranma's voice really goes downhill starting with season four....trust me.

I remember you. You used to have Seshoumaru as your representative character, and I his brother. I can't help but wonder if you outgrew the series like I did.

===

First episode of GaoGaiGar = Win. The first robot is created quite awesomely and has some very cool offensive weapons made from everyday appliances. Like microwaves and freezers.

---

Came across the Cromartie High School OST but the file size for each file is fucking insane. None of the programs I use with to compress them and convert them recognize the files thus I got rid of it.

I cried on the inside. Many a tear...

And I'm still on fire from watching Akagi, so much that I have to watch it again.

I've never seen the Gaokaigar series, but I love the theme songs. :) I have them on a CD, lol.

I drew a pic for a Spanish project. :) She's a time machine named "Pepita." If you can guess all the anime influences that went into her design, I'll give you a whole plate of plum onigiri. :p Hint: it's only two different characters. :3

If you want to learn more about her, you can find a better explanation in my thread here, but it's not very anime related, so you might not be interested, lol.

At 2/9/07 09:24 PM, Bleach667 wrote: Hey gendos here hows that marathon coming dude?

Fine, we've already watched the first episode and the first OVA of Hellsing, read some manga (Ranma 1/2, Death Note and Read or Dream).

Up next we've got 12 more of Hellsing plus a few of the Hannibal Lecter films and tons more anime to watch.

I don't know if I'm the only one who feels this way, but I'm beginning to think all this talk about stalking Gendo is borderline creepy. =_=

I heard Canada needs migrant workers to do all the shitty jobs. is this true gendo

Okies. Gendo, you can add me to your ever-growing list of stalkers. :D

How do I stalk? o.o

Dear God, I don't think this club has ever been so creepy. I'm disgusted by all of you. At least if you were stalking a female I could understand and ridicule. But since it's a male, I can only ridicule.

And Bleach, stop double posting. That's where you make two posts in a row.

Wait........... I'm not stalking a woman. Oh dear god....
Cold shower...........

i just wanna know if there are more jobs up there in Canada.

Would you rather I became a lesbian? =x

Wait... don't answer that. xD

I'm still waiting on someone... ANYONE to comment on either my animation or on my drawing of Pepita... ;_; [/whine]

I think Wonko is jealous

Ye...aw shit. Anyway. You I can understand and ridicule for this. But since you're here around a bunch of men, most of whom have never touched a woman, expect a lot of creepy fanboys.

Well, do get away from whatever direction we were going in, Dead Leaves comes on in like half an hour, so tonight might not suck so bad.
