I still can't believe toonami is getting this. It is so close now

 

[Schadenfreude]

That is good for you

Whoah, bro. What's with the attitude? I thought burritos were supposed to be a jolly food.

 

[LayLa]

that x on his chin really bugs me for some reason, the rest looks ok
wakanim is a rubbish site do i really have to use it :/

 

[CornBurrito]

Whoah, bro. What's with the attitude? I thought burritos were supposed to be a jolly food.

I wasn't being sarcastic. It is good if you aren't bothered or don't notice the differences between the voices and mouth flaps.

 

[Crash Station]

Definitely looks a hell of a lot more appealing to me than Kids on the Slope. May be the 2nd Watanabe show I like after Samurai Champloo.

 

[FO-totality]

My Space Can't Be This Dandy

 

[Choppasmith]

This starts tonight? I thought it didn't start until next month?

 

[BatDan]

This starts tonight? I thought it didn't start until next month?

It starts next week. OT's are often made a week in advance.

 

[dimb]

This starts tonight? I thought it didn't start until next month?

Next week.

 

[Choppasmith]

Oh phew, thanks!

 

[ZoddGutts]

Hope I don't get Boned again. Pls be good.

i should watch Kids on the Slope st some point

 

[KDC720]

This snuck up quick. Love me some Wantanabe, will watch for sure.

 

[Dereck]

lol at the idea of watching the english dub. I'm not even gonna try.

 

[ezekial45]

Oh, come on. English dubs have been pretty great lately. In a number of cases, the English dubs for some Anime are superior to the original. Cowboy Bebop, being the notable example.

Honestly, this one is sounding pretty stellar too.

 

[Firemind]

BOW DOWN TO YOUR GOD AND SAVIOR

 

[ZombiePlatypus]

So hyped for this. Mushroom Samba every week sounds amazing. And I had no idea it had so much other cool talent aside from Watanabe.

Man this is gonna be massive for Toonami.

 

[BassForever]

Watching it first in English on Toonami is going to be an incredible experience, dunno why you'd want to wait at worst just watch both

I'm going to wait.

Because I don't get Cartoon Network.

 

[Crocodile]

Damn nice job on on the OP duckroll

I'm super looking forward to this. Since the show will be airing first on Toonami, everybody who gets Cartoon Network should swing by the Toonami Community thread to discuss it with us ASAP

Yeah but that was made by some crummy studio no-one likes. BONES can afford animation, from time to time.

Akko is not pleased

lol at the idea of watching the english dub. I'm not even gonna try.

Nice to see sub-elitism is still alive and well :/

 

[Crash Station]

Same was said about Kill la Kill.

I can't imagine Space Dandy being anywhere close to as good as Kill la Kill.

 

[BassForever]

I can't imagine Space Dandy being anywhere close to as good as Kill la Kill.

No but getting new episodes of both every week is going to be incredible

 

[Clov]

Oh, come on. English dubs have been pretty great lately.

There are some good English dubs, but lately? Listen to anything dubbed by Sentai Filmworks and then try and say that with a straight face.

 

[BassForever]

This is Funimation, name the last bad Funimation dub you heard

 

[Instro]

I am ready to be a dandy.

 

[Doctor Decimate]

Funimation routinely has some of the best dubs ever. Steins;Gate, for example.

 

[BassForever]

I can't even find a Sentai Filmworks anime that they localized that I'd want to watch dub or sub, what big series did they dub that I'm missing?

 

[Hellsing321]

My Body is Dandy.

 

[dumbyugi]

I'm looking foward to this quite a bit. Not setting my expectations too high though, I don't think I've actually liked anything Watanabe has done since Bebop.

This is Funimation, name the last bad Funimation dub you heard

It's not that recent but Ouran Highschool Host Club was awful. A lot of their recent dubs have been fairly mediocre. Not awful but not what I would consider good either.

 

[ZombiePlatypus]

lol at the idea of watching the english dub. I'm not even gonna try.

Come on some dubs can be great. Cowboy Bebop's dub is damn iconic at this point and virtually the definitive version of the series.

 

[Clov]

The last thing I watched dubbed from them was Black Lagoon, which was pretty good. Most of their releases don't appeal to me, so I haven't heard any of their latest dubs.

However, Funi isn't the entire North American anime industry. For every nice dub that Fun I can take their time with, there's plenty of awful coming from elsewhere. Good dubbing definitely exists, but to say that lately we've had plenty of great ones just seems silly to me.

Edit: For those who want an example of a terrible dub by Sentai ruining a great show, look at Kids on the Slope

 

[CF_Fighter]

Have been excited since I first saw it mentioned on here months ago.

Now I have to watch the english dub.

 

[Amikami]

Can't wait for this show to start. Can't believe Toonami snagged this.

And I can say it's silly to say that just because Sentai filmworks can't dub worth shit doesn't mean that most dubs haven't been good in the past several years. I honestly can't think of the last time I watched a dubbed anime and thought "wow this dub is bad" either on Toonami or on DVD. Bleach by Viz is probably the only anime dub I watch that's consistently ehh since it's obvious half the cast is phoning it in, but then again it's Bleach so <_<

 

[ponpo]

comeeket

 

[The Giant]

Bring it on.

 

[Mistle]

This and Kill La Kill are the first anime's i've been even slightly interested in since FMA: Brotherhood.

Kill la Kill is fun ultimately seems pretty hollow. Hopefully this ends up great (I won't judge on trailers....)

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Toonami's future is looking dandy.

 

[daffy]

I can't even find a Sentai Filmworks anime that they localized that I'd want to watch dub or sub, what big series did they dub that I'm missing?

Persona 4 is the last one I watched.

Don't blame their crappy performances on the show! You know I love Bleach ;__;

 

[BassForever]

Don't blame their crappy performances on the show

There is a pretty noticeable decline when they go from canon material to filler material, maybe I'm just hearing things though lol

 

[Crash Station]

You could check out Attack on Titan since lapsed anime fans seem to like that, but you may find it hollow as well.

 

[Neffarias_Bredd]

I liked mushroom samba and I will like this

Actually... Funimation basically IS the entire NA anime industry at this point.

 

[lazybones18]

Aniplex needs to step it up

Spoiler

and lower their damn prices

 

[Dresden]

Do we really need a dub vs sub argument here? We'll get both. Good times for fans, listen to what you want. So on and so forth.

 

[dimb]

No.

 

[Clov]

Well, in terms of big titles on home media, they're definitely the biggest. Personally I'd argue that Crunchyroll is now more important, but that would be getting too off-topic.

As for Space Dandy, it looks great! I'll be watching it as soon as it's out. Not sure what language I'll go with first, but I'll give both a go I suppose.

 

[The Artful Dodger]

I'll probably watch this.
