Anime Thread!

[AtDawnTheySquee]

I sparked quite a controversy earlier in this thread when I said that I don't care for Attack on Titan. *ducks*

AoT looks like a slightly revamped version of SOA. Yea... AoT doesn't interest me at all, it looks like another generic shonen. On the other hand I'm totally digging Kill la Kill.

What's so bad about cartoons? I mean yes, over here cartoons are marketed at kids and teens, but that doesn't really hold true elsewhere.

Yeah Hijiri, don't you know that cartoons are immature schlock nonsense that will never be respected by anyone? Especially not anything made by this "Disney" guy, if that even is his real name. :P

Why choose between the two when you can have both? c; Oh, and I prefer 2D greatly over 3D, 3DPD hyumuns are yucky 95% and are usually accompanied by a crappy personality.

I only watch subs, like a trve animu fan.

It depends.  I go sub most of the time, but when the dubbing is bearable and matches the character, I'll go with that.  Sometimes, in a fit of insanity, I'll do both, but I usually have a hard time reconciling the inconsistencies between the written and spoken english translations.

What's really annoying with subs is when multiple speakers are talking simultaneously or when the subs vanish before they can realistically be read.  It happens rarely but it happens.

Dubs on the other hand, sometimes miss out on some of the subtleties of the language.  The subbed version explains a pun with an asterisk and a small text explanation.  The dubbed version has no explanation, leaving the audience (me) a little confused.

Imho, it's all a matter of taste.

And that's why the Flying Spaghetti Monster gave us the pause button.
