    Creature - Florida Dragon Turtle Human

    So which has the worst dub between these three very culture-specific series: K-On!, Lucky Star, or Excel Saga?

  • edited 2012-05-23 16:02:03

    Haven't watched Excel Saga at all, and haven't watched the more than like one scene each from dub of K-ON! or Lucky Star, so... I really can't comment on that.  BUT I WILL ANYWAY!


    K-ON! has more than zero voice actors from the Ika Musume dub, so that's probably the worst of the three.


    Furthermore, Lucky Star mostly relies on references to otaku media, so as long as it doesn't try to change the references to other things, it should make just as much sense in any language (since being an English speaking anime fan doesn't mean you're less likely than a Japanese anime fan to have seen the things they reference, for the most part).  Also, it actually went out of its way to make the voice actor references to Haruhi make sense in the English dub too.  So basically, Lucky Star's jokes actually probably make sense in English, so it's probably, like... actually not a bad dub.

  • What's wrong with Wendee Lee?

  • Honestly, just that she's not Aya Hirano.  So basically, nothing.

    Lucky Star dub is good. I can't compare it to the sub since I've seen the whole series dubbed and like half an episode subbed, but the dub is good. Well, except Patty (who might alone be enough reason to prefer the sub, even if she isn't really that important).

    I remember liking the Lucky Star dub, for the most part. Been a looooong time since I watched it, though.
    except Patty
    oh god her
  • a little muffled

    Apparently her voice was intentionally meant to be annoying (mission accomplished), but that doesn't make it any less painful to listen to.

  • Creature - Florida Dragon Turtle Human

    Okay, now I gotta hear this Patty voice.

  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!

    D:


    why

  • It's... certainly not the worst dub voice I've ever heard.


    Sure is pretty bad though, yeah.

  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!

    Yeah, I've heard worse too.


    But it's pretty clear that it's actually trying to sound bad, which is...bad.

  • Creature - Florida Dragon Turtle Human

    Well, if it's supposed to sound grating, then...yeah, that worked out very well.

  • a little muffled

    @DYRE: It stands out because the rest of the voices are fine in this one.

    do people think that playing Skyrim in the third person is stupid

    ^^ Are you outraged that Bandai Entertainment wouldn't devote all their quality control to Ui's HOWAITO KURISUMASU or are you saying that I'm wrong?

  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!

    ^^Nah, though it's not how I play. Now, playing Morrowind or Oblivion in third person pretty much just down't work, but that was fixed for Skyrim.

    The first one. That was a goddamn heartwarming scene.
  • Study assocation for archeology hired frat for a party, was there to recover from baking a shitload of pancakes, and used the line "hey, you look chic" on a dudette dressed as Sheik. It didn't work the way I hoped it would.

    Haven't been this depressed since Christmas. Or this pissed off at nothing. Need to think of some way to cheer myself up.


    By the way, do we already have an Insecurities thread? I don't see why we couldn't have a thread like that here.

    I don't think we do, but it would be entirely reasonable to.
