If Shokugeki no Soma actually got put on Toonami, it would tank so hard in ratings that it would be moved to the very end of the block, or even cut entirely, within a month.
The dub is just gonna suuuccckkkk, isn't it....

More than likely. Unless they suddenly hire competent voice directors.
It's not the actors (most of the time), several of them are also in Funimation dubs and they pull off good work. Murano in Parasyte is also Nami on One Piece. That one annoying guy on Akame ga Kill that kept using video game terminology is also Frieza on DBZ Kai (and the Resurrection F movie).and Uraraka on My Hero Academia
Hey now, Shokugeki no Soma is actually funny. Unlike GXP.
Soma alone is way more likeable than any character on that show.
Totally agree with you, man. It's less the actual VAs & more the fact they just feel like the first take is good enough without bothering to try to bring out their A-game like Funimation does.
I feel like it could be a mixture of both. Akame ga Kill & more so with Parasyte have shown us there are some people who can act fine, but then other times, we get voices that just do not match or get some really bad line reads. With Parasyte, we have some VAs who've worked with Funimation (Migi is Black Star from Soul Eater) and while Parasyte's dub is much better thab AgK's, there's still stuff like Shinichi having bad line reads or a few characters whose voice doesn't really work.I dunno I feel like this argument is kinda missing it. Most of the bad performances came from novice VAs with only a few years experience, and those with FUNimation acting credits (Luci Christian, Andrew Love, that guy who voiced Bro Pompadour whatever his name) tended to be the stronger performances. Yes, I suppose you could say maybe FUNimation ADR directors could get more out of those noivce actors, but to place the blame solely of the directors is too simple, I think.
Preregistration has launched along with a campaign that can earn early adopters memory diamonds, apron & kitchen knife and Camisole Asuna depending on how many sign up.
Hey, there's going to be a new Sword Art Online mobile game.
Hopefully nothing ecchi happe--
Oh come on with this pandering.
It's a woman's loose-fitting undergarment for the upper body, typically held up by shoulder straps and having decorative trimming.What's camisole?
food wars looks dumb no matter what the voices are

The ultimate proof of concept of the bad direction theory is the Bleach dub.
Hitsugaya: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh
Easy Allies streamed that today; it seemed like it was monotone, finicky, and annoying. It seemed like going open world was a mistake while retaining the flaws from the first. Years to improve yet not so what gives?So I'm playing Mirror's Edge Catalyst.
And well...
I could mention a lot of things. The annoying story, the graphics issues, the kinda enjoyable but awkward combat. The list goes on. The biggest problem I have with the game is how safe it all feels. For instance, you get to a train station, and I'm thinking "OH! This is gonna be like the train sequence from the first game! That's great!" Then you hop on a train, cutscene, and you're done. There's no train sequence in this game. There's no real signature moments at all so far. Like many open world games, I'm fairly certain I won't remember any of this in a month. The game will just be a blur in my mind.
I could go back and play the first game right now, and remember practically everything.
That has nothing to do with voice direction. Steve Staley just cannot yell. So on one hand it's a talent thing, on the other it's a casting thing (he's fine in certain roles, but does not fit others).

You were expecting anything different?
This week on Ask Demarco!
You guys deal in allot of hypotheticals huh?
Slightly related. Saw the new AS lineup for the weekend block and now i'm wondering if Bob's Burgers is actually doing well enough that it got Family Guy's coveted late night slot.
No kidding? Bob's Burgers is by far the best show to watch before TOONAMI since...I don't know when. There's good episodes of Boondocks and Black Dynamite, but also super shitty ones. There's ain't no bad episodes of Schadenbob's Burgers.
For a second there....yeah, I did.

Much like the endless horizon before them, they too see no end to the run much like there is no end to Naruto.
They put padding in the final fight! At this rate I look forward to the inevitable 100 episode filler of Naruto and his love interest courting each other!

You know what is a good Sentai dub?
Monthly Girls Nozaki. It's legitimately good despite starring mostly newbies and gives me hope that not everything Sentai has is sent to die.
I am having a personal zero time dilemma because I have the game and no time to play it!

I knew this would happen so I bought the watch edition just to sell it later!Better then have a zero copy dilemma like most people who didn't pre-order the standard edition since lol watch edition people and lol walk in buyers
I keep forgetting to watch bob ross on mondays.
Job's taking up all of my "do absolutely nothing" time.
Not that I want to criticize anybody, but I'm so used to buying games well after launch that I see people getting irlmad at Aksys/Amazon for the delay - to the extent that now they say aren't going to play the game at all - and it kinda confuses me. I saw three people say that, and I doubt they all played 999 right when it released.
I also have a billion other games to get to so even if a preorder of mine is delayed, I wouldn't be bothered.
