Negimalevolent Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 You guys watch dubs?!HEATHENS!!! Just kidding. In my opinion' date=' the original voicing is always better than the English dub because plays on words in Japanese through use of kanji to hiragana can never carry over properly, leaving the dubbers, fan or corporate, to create crappy jokes to fill the space. It's horrible! Also some jokes like Lucky Star Tsukasa's [i']basami kousu[/i] do not sound funny in the dub. I simply abhorr dubs. i agree that sometimes that the dubs are a little on the weak side, if the lucky star part you're refering to is [this is a guess] the balsamic vinegar part in the dub I'd probably agree providing I'd actualy had the time to watcha subbed episode instead of a dubbed one, but I'm normaly too busy and just have the dubs going in the background >_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great Unclean One: VK Posted November 22, 2009 Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 ! Win! We should host a poll on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otaku-sama Posted November 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 Fine then. We just need to get our top picks. Akibahara is a good one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
賢狼ホロ Posted November 22, 2009 Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 Akihabara is heaven on earth. Full stop. To be true otakus we could always implement some Japanese in the club name? ^ω^ Edward Elric is also voiced by a woman if I remember correctly. I think Naruto is voiced by 70-year-old granny....

Skuldur Posted November 22, 2009 Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 How about Dai-Gurren Brigade. Or SOS-Gurren Brigade. xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shradow Posted November 22, 2009 Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 Hell yeah, Dai-Gurren Brigade. My Team Gurren club failed, so that would work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otaku-sama Posted November 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 Akibahara is to otakus as Mecca is to Muslims or as Jerusalem is to Christians. It's otaku central. It has a very high concentration of all things otaku packed into one place, and not just anime otaku. They also cater to the gamer otaku and the tech otaku too. That's how otaku it is. Two current candidates I have chosen to be in the poll are Akibahara and SOS Brigade. Give me a few more names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DL Posted November 22, 2009 Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 yay! reading SJ paid off. I'd like to go to Akibahara too, actually. In fact, I'd just like to go to Japan, period. Akibahara is a good Otaku club name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Negimalevolent Posted November 22, 2009 Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 yeah i vote Akihabura too, sice I have no idea what the SOS Brigade is even remotely based on >_< and I'm not sure SOS brigade would convince otaku to join rather than fans of Gurran or whatever it's called, isn't this supposed to be an otaku club, not a Gurran club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DL Posted November 22, 2009 Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 SOS Brigade is from haruhiTis a good name. So is Akihabara. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
