I just wish that these companies would wait until the manga has at least several volumes under its belt before deciding to air a series which then most likely result in 50 to 90% filler if it goes the way of FMA1 (which is actually a rare example of excellent filler imho).

I don't know about that. I know that some people would argue that the original FMA was good... not me though -- I've said my peace of mind on that but I admire their restraint -- of not resorting to stuffing it with filler and instead go their own way. It all worked out in the end with Brotherhood anyway.

Soooo it seems like KlK is definitely getting a dub. http://www.anime-exp...-special-event/ Not surprised really but I'll just be donning the occasional snob hat and say that I'll be sticking to the original version. I am curious about the casting of course though.
Eh I don't know, the dub COULD be done good, Gurren Lagann had a good dub after all with some characters being even except for a few which where done better in the sub and some better in the dub. Now I would agree some characters will be better by default in the sub, but depending on who they get for certain characters(if they say for Lady Platt for Satsuki) then some characters would be better.
I'll wait till I see the cast list, though I don't think anyone they get will do a good job as Nonon or Senketsu.

I double dare anyone to try and do the recap that Senketsu did. Its gonna be hilarious to hear that in english.

As long as Aniplex did not pull the crap Funimation did with AoT I think we'll all be happy.

Anyway I think I'll be happy if they manage to pull the crap Funimation did with AoT. Crap like getting damn good ratings on their Toonami showings apparently.

Please forgive my ignorance but when you all say AoT are you referring to "Attack on Titan?" I've seen bits of it myself, it's pretty interesting so far very gratuitous with the gore (though what anime isn't these days?) sort of reminds me of Deadman Wonderland. And I just want to add that it is refreshing to take part in an anime discussion where for once the mass majority isn't taking a mass dump on English dubs ex: "You gaiz watch engerish dubz mang yoo beez lame, Japonais is totes superior n stuff!!11!" (if you don't believe me go visit Animesuki or any anime forum for that matter
) So yea, I thank you for that and hopefully I can get to discuss more anime and manga topics with you all ![]()

Just gonna bump in here and ask.
After my exams I wanna start on some Ghost in the Shell-like anime. I can't really deal with stuff like that now because my mind is all over the place. You know, **** that REQUIRES your attention.
So yeah, any suggestions?

I think it's better to watch the dub and ask whether it's good in its own right before singling out specific characters or even specific lines to see how they compare to the original. Otherwise you could be setting up a rather unfair prejudice compared to how you watched the sub and received the Japanese VAs (from whom you had no point of comparison).
Anyway I think I'll be happy if they manage to pull the crap Funimation did with AoT. Crap like getting damn good ratings on their Toonami showings apparently.
AoT dub is horrible. Only Petra is decent. Erens voice is garbage, Levis voice does not fit at all and too much of his dialog is OOC (Take it like a man? wtf) Mikasa is cringeworthy and when the abridged Armin is better then the official Armin you messed up big time.
I expected Brotherhood quality, what was produced makes me cringe in pain.

Yeah, it's Attack on Titan.
And welcome!

Just remember that no matter what anime you're discussing it will invariably lead back to Kill la Kill gif spam.

Dubs are always going to be a gamble, even with higher-quality ones like AoT. Guess I lucked out with the subbed on CrunchyRoll.AoT dub is horrible.
Giant Killer Humans Versus Blade-Wielding Jetpackers? Yep, there's either gonna be a big slice, or a little crunch.Very gratuitous with the gore (though what anime isn't these days?)
It's virtually the only Anime talked about on here I've stuck around with to the end. As crazy as KlK is, the story didn't really hook me enough to keep watching. They know how to entertain, though.

I don't think the AoT dub is mind-blowingly good, but I certainly don't think it's mind-numbingly bad either.

I really do need to stop being a slacker and finally watch AoT myself... Current plans as of now are having my soul crushed by Psycho-Pass and then even things out with Black Lagoon.
I quickly jumped between both casts of BL last night and I think as of now I'll definitely be going with the dub.
I ramble about the snob hat enough but there still are some series that I like the dub for just fine (Noir and Read or Die TV and OVA specifically).

I know the feeling of having so many well recived animes just waiting to be watched. Gone from AoT and KLK to FMA:B and Gurren Lagann and i got at least a thousand animes left to watch and the list just keep growing. Not going to complain about that though, could be worse and having animes like Black Lagoon waiting is quite exciting

That's exactly what I love about this topic, Rah. :3 Seeing you guys get amped for series naturally piques my curiosity since our tastes seem to all fall so close together. A few of the folks I follow on Tumblr are pretty big into FMA:B and of course the happy noises here made me decide I might as well add it to the list. I did watch a chunk of the original series way back when but never finished it and the general consensus seems to be that FMA:B is worlds better. The details are super rusty on the original series so apologies if I mess this up but there's one moment that stuck out to me (AKA it messed me up bad) that I'm curious if FMA:B does as well:

Absolutely, seeing people recommend certain animes makes it quite easy to find good ones since i've started to learn where my taste is and where it's compared to everyone elses. One of many reasons why this thread is so very awesome!

YES. The Black Lagoon dub is most excellent! Revy sounds way more badass in the dub then in subs.
