Apparently you weren't gentle enough.

I can't imagine it's a particularly large concern for most people, because they seem to be fine with it, but it kind of bothers me. I wouldn't necessarily say it was stilted though.

A delicious box of joy has arrived today from our friendly neighborhood RightStuf:
Note: I have never watched any of these. (Yet, obviously.)
These are some good choice sire.

It's weird when you compare it to other anime hits such as Archer or Bob's Burgers, which have voice acting that is just fine.
Regulus Tera
Romanes Eunt Domus
needs more uguus and desus
Everything should have a good catch-phrase.

Jex is starting to double-post.
The hidden power I spoke of is desperate to unleash.
What's Archer's rating on MAL?

So the key element is Korra is lacking H. Jon Benjamin?

So, I take it you felt the same about the original series? Stop being vague, darn it!

Regulus Tera

Children-oriented programming in the US tends to have stilted voice work. I got used to it with Avatar very quick.

Based off youtube video reactions to the finale I'm sure they'll make mega bucks.
Or they'll make nothing, because people have already watched it.
So I watched the Bokura ga Ita movie (which incidentally is based on anime/manga) and I enjoyed it quite a bit. Apparently the first movie covers everything the anime covers and the 2nd movie will cover the manga until the end.
The actress playing Nanami is sufficiently ditzy as to convey the character pretty well. I was afraid they wouldn't be able to do the character but it kinda works (unlike the KnT movie where the actress didn't feel like Sawako at all).
Its basically your standard shoujo with all the various twists and turns. The ending is happy enough to basically be an ending and open ended enough to make you want to watch the 2nd movie.

You're supposed to care about boob-alien because she's boob-alien. They clearly think that's enough to sell her 'plight'. Few characters in history can say they've had a more powerful motivation than "I want to see that lakes with the trees". Powerful stuff.
Nah they're gonna bank on this.
Hell they are getting several of US to buy this. Imagine the general anime fan populace!

Fate/Zero 10:
OH GOD YOUNG RIN SO MOE [REDACTED]
This episode was almost purely fanservice for fans of Rin. It connects to the main story through
but it's purely a side-story episode for Young Rin to show us all how incredibly moe she can be. There's a nice little sequence at the end of this episode in the same park where Kariya first finds Aoi and Young Rin back in episode 1, a year ago now in this narrative, which really brings the whole story of the episode together and links it with the greater storyline. Ah, who gives a shit about that? Everyone's here because Young Rin's Moe Power Level IS OVER NINE-THOUSAAAAAAAAAAND!!
I really liked this episode, it was a nice break from the main story and it only cements my plans to watch the Fate/Stay Night anime after Fate/Zero ends even though everyone says it's bad and LOL DEEN.
Unfortunately I know a bit about the story of Fate/Stay Night, which kind of ruins some of the suspense there would otherwise be about the ultimate fates (hurr durr) of Kariya, Rin, and Sakura.

Harima is pretty awesome. He's a good ol' boy with a bad exterior.
Tenma is cute as hell too with her ahoge.

That isn't even true, because the show changes it's act structure around the 25 episode mark!
Almost as powerful as Kaito's "man I'm just a teen whose horny, aren't I relatable" motivation.
It's really just ridiculous how much more interesting and fun the supporting cast is.

Remember when that was a big thing?

Truly one of the finest episodes of an anime in recent years and it's all thanks to the character interactions.
You don't need both, that's just greedy.
As much as I like Saber, I had to give Rider props for that shit.

I don't know, presumably we represent a significantly more dedicated/hardcore portion of the 'general anime fan populace' because we actually post about anime on a regular basis in a thread. We're already more likely to purchase anime than anyone else!

Japan dosen't give a shit about watanabe. Anime is DOOMED.
You're just helping ANN continue with their spree of posting biglobe polls!
I know, right?
Not necessarily.
Most of animeGAF are discerning and probably buy less often but focus on quality.
Ano Hana particularly probably relies on a much more expanded fanbase, relatively speaking, than the typical hardcore anime fan. More "casual" anime fans as it were.
I remember Lucky Star fondly. I don't know how well it'd hold with me know, as I'm finding a lot of the stuff I enjoyed then doesn't--Bakemonogatari, but I enjoyed it a lot then.

Well, that certainly was a hot springs episode!
Well, that certainly was a hot springs episode!
Hibiki and Maya need their own arc so bad
The thing is I really don't remember having any of these issues with the voice work of the original series. Then again it's been a while since I last watched it so maybe I just wilfully forgot about it.
i've heard pretty bad things about the anime adaptation of F/SN

Naru's expressions is priceless.
I have a feeling this thread may not be long for this worldforum.
