Re: Would you Have Auditioned for Super?

I honestly think the only modern dub that still has poor voice acting and music/soundtrack replacement is the Pokemon anime. And that's only because they know they can get away with it since young kids don't care enough and older fans are a minority or age out of the show. The Pokemon anime still r...

Re: Dragon Ball Rewatch, Week 58 - DBZ 95-99

One bit that i wish Funimation had changed was that whole "Namek will blow up in 5 minutes" thing, like Chris Psaros said it's far too much suspension of disbelief for the show to state something like that and then have the fight go on for another 7 episodes before the planet finally blow...

Re: Dragon Ball Rewatch, Week 58 - DBZ 95-99

Phew finally got around to watching these, the first Eleventh Hour Single I ordered ended up lost in the mail so after 2 weeks(and getting a refund) of waiting I gave up and ordered a second copy. Anyways I didn't have much of an issue with Goku's speech, sure it's different from the original, but y...

Re: Lets stop Asian hate - what can we do?

Just wanna throw this into the discussion (and take it back to Asian hate): The idea of Asians being the "model minority" is part of this issue. It's a convenient way to mask/ignore anti-Asian racism by creating the false impression that they're "doing things right" (IE behaving...

Cowboy Bebop had the Remix collection which looked considerably better then the original US DVD releases.

Re: Tonight on "Things to Make You Feel Old"

On April 4, Kai is gonna turn 10 years since it was first aired here in Latin America. Unfortunately it's something that's gonna be largely ignored because of its "controversial" dub. You guys got the good Z dub. Feel like you guys got the better end of the deal. XD I felt like I got a pr...

Re: Collectors: storage options, climate control, etc.

In my room i've got a bunch of old wooden shelves that used to hold a bunch of books my parents had collected over the years, I later convinced them to move their books elsewhere so I could put my own stuff on the shelves. Fortunately these shelves are sturdy as they were built to last with how big ...

Re: Collectors: storage options, climate control, etc.

For the VHS tapes it's best to keep them standing vertically as opposed to horizontally, as reels can fall out during the rewinding process if tapes are kept horizontally for too long. I actually had that happen to a rare tape I sent to someone else to rip(as it was a very rare movie that wasn't leg...

Re: Lets stop Asian hate - what can we do?

Politics are a form of warfare, bullets aren't being shot but ideals are discussed that could affect a person's well being, so it's always a sensitive subject. That being said, I don't hate anybody who i've been going back and forth with in the mysogyny thread, if we all met at Kamehacon or somethi...

Fair enough. But I think it's a tight rope to balance. Yeah it's definitely not always easy to tell when someone is arguing in bad faith or if they genuinely don't know. I've certainly made mistakes in the past myself(I unironically used the term "reverse racism" online over a decade ago ...

No offense but you come off as a bit naive here, just because you've never personally witnessed hate does not mean it does not exist in your state. Not all hatred is obvious shit like KKK members burning crosses, sometimes racism is way more subtle and structural in nature like denying someone a lo...

Re: Lets stop Asian hate - what can we do?

Early 2000s had all the racial issues stemming from the 90s lingering on. It was definitely far worse. It was just less visible because compared to then, information travels so rapidly today. Also, issues today are just blown way out of proportion, making them seem like a much bigger issue than the...

Re: Lets stop Asian hate - what can we do?

That is incredibly debatable. I would say racism against minorities has actually been worse since 2016 than it was in the early 2000s. And it was hardly sunshine and roses back then. Early 2000s had all the racial issues stemming from the 90s lingering on. It was definitely far worse. It was just l...
