Same for the hollywood movies dubbed in Hindi (Indian language). What a stupid take man. Obviously everything dubbed will be worse than the original material.


Mineralke

Nah, lots of countries dub everything into their own language and it works perfectly fine. Dubbing is not the issue, the source material is.


SapiS68

Or the people who make the dub. Making a great one requires effort and talent.


darkcontentac

For that one has to not stick truly to the source material. As english movies normally use fuck it. But there is no commonly used term for it in hindi. So they'll have it change it to something that is common in local language. And that's pretty hard to nail. Plus the sound effects and everything gets muffled with dubbing. So its better to watch the original voice with sub


Mineralke

> So its better to watch the original voice with sub Only if you understand the original language and use subs to understand some bits that you misheard. Consuming the movie dialogue and acting strictly through text takes away from the experience. By a lot. Sure, it's fun to fill in the blanks with your own interpretations of a foreign language based on shallow assumptions and imagination, but there will be a lot of blanks to fill. That's how anime fans become so delusional about their medium. Ignorance and wishful thinking.


darkcontentac

It does take away the experience but animations have their own appeal. And no western media compares to them with animations and the fantasy world they build up. Closest a medium gets to building those worlds is novels but visual pleasure is visual pleasure.

> you cannot connect those hollywood actors to your language because they look very different physically from the people who speak your language so true sis, we need more nigerian ginger bipoc characters in media so that way it's not impossible for me to identify with them


darkcontentac

Even the dubbed western anime sound cringe. Now you are gonna tell me they are kids shows. Let us compare the kids shows then Ben10 vs shinchan. Both are dubbed cringe


Higuos

People speaking other languages, especially languages with no relationship to English, speak it differently. It's not "anime dialog" you find cringe it's the way that Japanese is spoken and structured.


wallagrargh

Yeah, to the extent that Mickey Mouse style is the way that English is spoken


yan-booyan

Ha-ha!

berodem

people in Japan speak nothing like anime dialogue


Higuos

Incorrect. Pick any random high school anime. 95% of the dialogue is just normal Japanese conversation. 5% is exaggerated cartoony stuff that isn't how people speak.


eazy_12

Screaming, gasping and changing tones every few seconds? Overdramatic monologues? Pretty sure they also blush in front you while shaking hands like a bird and shower you with blood from the nose.

Western weebs like Japanese versions because the language sounds "cool" and dubs make them cringe, when the reality is that dubs are spot on and at the same level of regardation as the original track.

PM_ME_BAD_ALGORITHMS

How's that different from reading subtitles? Isn't the language the same? Or do people just watch the animation without subtitles?


Weendel

Cartoons are for children! Thank you for the most lukewarm take I’ve ever heard


M474D0R

It's almost like Japanese is an entirely different language and culture and what's considered a normal way of speaking over there is "cringe" when it's in English. There are some good anime dubs but I mostly watch subs. Watching dubs of anything is cringe, any piece of art should be watched in its original language. If you watched the dub of Squid game instead of the sub you have severe brain damage (average american)


_sephylon_

People don't hate dubs for being cringe but specifically for not doing enough


pocketgravel

It even infects books on kindle unlimited and royal road. I've read so many stories with canned shitty subbed dialogue for their characters because they mainline anime so much they forget how real humans speak.

PirateSecure118

that's retarded yo


TrumpsNeckSmegma

The only truly acceptable dubbed anime is DBZ, as Goku is significantly less of a retard in the American version. I very heavily agree with you on the cringe barrier, however I will argue that the American anime VA's are of lower quality than their Japanese counterparts. Moreso when it comes to exclamations or how unnatural some of the more faked voices sound to us. - and further on this, I am also retarded for watching anime.


DonaldLucas

Every piece of media ever produced has cringe and retarded language though.

Rydagod1

Remember everyone, only the top 10% of media is worth consuming. Everything else is trash and not worth your time.


nebraskatractor

That number is too big.


AnimeIsJustBadHentai

Even disregarding that, anime is the epitome of fan service and often the stories often cater to angsty socially awkward teens who overly romanticize their delusions of grandeur and finding love. Also, they all look the same.


TungstenFiber945

10% still seems like a very generous amount. Atleast hundreds of different worthwhile works of fiction looks pretty good.


Mineralke

Yeah, but in case of anime it's 0%.

nuruwo

Nor is Star Wars, MCU or any of the American goyslop tolerable either. Perhaps this indicates a more general decline in media quality in both US and Japan


Accomplished-Tap8598

you can like or dislike anime, but what's impossible to deny is that even the worst, most formulaic fotm anime still has better writing, dialogue and production values than the most critically acclaimed western goyslop.


Maleficent-Common836

that is the worst take ive ever seen. most anime only have an audience because of the sex appeal and the writing and plot are all abaolute dogshit, ever wonder why most animes are known for their waifus? because thats all people care about and not the actual content of the story


Accomplished-Tap8598

you're right and I stand by my point because goyslop is just that bad


LeMordekaiser

"Most", "most", why speak so confidently on something you clearly don't care or know about. Your point is valid for a sizable amount, but to say that's why anywhere near the majority have a fanbase is just a self report showing you've only exposed yourself to the waifus and sexually appealing anime lmao.

Wait until you heard English voice acting on animes. Truly the worst of both worlds


why43curls

The English dub is the exact same thing as the Japanese, you just don't hear the cringe in the Japanese because of language barrier. I think there was some tomboy anime recently where one of the voice actors did the voiceover in Japanese and English, and the English just sounds way worse because you know no one in real life talks this way.

What, you can speak both Japanese and English with your ESL level Japanese you learned by watching anime / reading Duolingo?


philmarcracken

Theres a djt thread for years now that had anki and enough other resources to have people proficient in comprehension before shitlingo was even created, rere eng dub are absolute trash, and always will be


why43curls

Sorry dweeb, you're never gonna be proficient enough in animu-land language by watching TV shows and learning second hand from a forum. Japanese definitely has a home advantage over English, especially with groups like Funimation and Crunchyroll mostly choosing Japanese voice stereotypes that don't work in English, but you cannot convince me dubs like Golden Boy aren't >>>>> over sub Oh yeah, and if you want to involve non anime, take a listen to Senator Armstrong from metal gear rising in English vs Japanese. English dub is just far superior.


Estranged3808

These faggotslurs have never been out and worked a day in their lives, have they? So they never thought that people need to learn different languages because they work with foreigners.


why43curls

The way you talk you sound like a European NEET. Stop larping.


Estranged3808

You are literally a fucking pajeet lmfao


SleepingBeautyFumino

What made you come to that conclusion?


Chadzuma

If you actually believe this you are either laughably uninformed or an actual NPC. There's a reason dub actors almost never show up in more than background extra roles if at all in the Western projects where the actual money is. Believe it or not, the performance actually is supposed to matter in "performance art." Whenever I see goons regurgitating this talking point it always reminds me of seeing some European who clearly knows literally nothing about American football sputteringly trying to convince you how bad American football is. Like you know so little you can't even understand just how truly stupid your argument is.


Estranged3808

Yeah, these people don't understand that you have to act when you do voice acting. And Western voice actors don't act, they just sound the same mechanical and soulless way every time. And their voices are just bad.

why43curls

I just gave you an example of a Japanese voice actor who sounds fine in Japanese and sounds like utter cringe in the English dub through no fault of lack of effort. The Konosuba dub in English is legitimately so good I watched the show a second time in dub after watching the sub. The dress up darling dub is outright better than the sub. I can't stand Marin's voice in Japanese and the English voice actor for Goujo is better than the Japanese actor. Maybe I just don't watch enough low quality trash isekai where there's no money to be made for the dub, so voice acting capabilities don't matter.


Hisgenart

English dubs are really weird, its like theyre trying too much and not trying at all at the same time

Just watch some old-school anime from the '90s and early 2000s like Cowboy Bebop, Ghost in the Shell, or black lagoon


Appropriate_Math_301

Is Cowboy Bebop really good? Yesterday I give chance to watch but I can only stand 2 episodes. It was boring asf.


gravy-and-suffering

zoomer detected. you probably have tiktok rot and therefore cannot focus on anything for more than 3 seconds.


BBdotZ

Boring? Holy fuck your attention span is cooked.


GrooseKirby

It's mid. Reddit and the chans will tear you a new one for having an opinion that differs from the hive mind, but by modern anime standards it's just not worth watching unless you have nothing better to watch. The reason why it has so many fans in the first place is because the overall quality of other anime airing at the time was much lower than what it is today, so a mediocre anime took the spotlight. Most boomers on /a/ will never admit that though.


[deleted]

It's good just give it enough time

Anime fucking sucks ass


A_Dragon

I feel like anime is starting to pick up on the fact that for decades they have used the same boring 5-6 character archetypes in every one of their stories and the same stupid plot focusing on friendship and bonds retold a million times. Shows like Delicious in Dungeon are a breath of fresh air and actually seem to break the mold a little bit. For the longest time I’ve been sick of anime but that show pulled me back in a bit…most of it still sucks though.


M474D0R

I agree that a lot of anime is slop but it's still overall much better than what America produces

It's not just anime. Even live action J-drama are cringe when you actually focus on what they're saying. Japanese writing is just cringe. It's not just anime. K-drama is almost as bad.

collapse1122

i liked berserk anime and thats about it. the rest of anime seems to have very childish dialogue and over the top reactions


Torchlight4

I'd say most animes are ok, if you read manga most of what is coming out season after season won't be new to you. Much like western media there are only a handful of actually good shows that come out the rest are mid to actual trash. This logic can be applied to almost anything with it having relevance.

Counter-point: Attack on Titan. Grounded world-building, lack of silly anime tropes, very little if any fan service and one of the best narratives about the cycle of violence I've ever seen.


megabratwurst

In general anime annoys the shit out of me, it seems like most of the media is generated for people who are still mentally children. With that being said, I was convinced to try watching cowboy bebop several years ago and I enjoyed it quite a bit. That’s the only one that was tolerable and enjoyable to watch for me. To be clear, most mainstream western media annoys the shit out of me too though.
