I wish I could punch these fucking psychos in the face.
They're totally unhinged, totally detached from reality, and are nothing more than a bunch of odious little bullies, a little bloc of ethno-fuckheads. Vile wretches.
There's this weird bias by these wokies that Caucasian characters in fiction aren't allowed to have a diverse skin tone range, and that anyone darker than pasty pale skin is "POC coded". I wonder if it's possible to even represent Caucasian characters with a tan without seeing people squawking about "muh poc representation".
I haven't watched the Witch From Mercury myself so I can't say how "coded" she seems to be, but at a glance she doesn't look like she's from the Middle East or anywhere like that. Anime isn't subtle, and Gundam shows in the past haven't been subtle either when it comes to showing such characters. Even the first Mobile Suit Gundam had Lalah Sune and she's unmistakably South Asian.
Claiming this peach-skinned girl with red hair and green eyes as a minority belonging to anything other than Ireland is nuts.
Not explicitly, but his name is obviously borrowed from Sadiq or Shadiq, which are both Arabic names. Maybe I'm falling into the "coding" trap myself, but he's 10000x more Arabic than Suletta is whatever they're claiming she is.
Oh yeah, name and even clothing wise that's the style they're giving. I just don't know any beach blonde Arab dudes with small noses, so ethnicity wise looks more like a Californian guy with 1 middle eastern grandparent and a bad case of desert fever.
Me. But lately I’ve been getting into subs instead. Started doing it with the second half of season 6 of My Hero Academia. I still watch Naruto with dubs because I don’t think there’s much damage with that show since it’s older. All of my shows have both English and Japanese dubs if available.
It isn't worth a watch. But it IS worth a watch with the dub. Which doesn't make sense, but it's true. Just make sure it's the original dub, they remade it later on with an awful updated for modern audiences dub.
And people still think Steven Foster was a good director because of that one show.
He got blacklisted by the entire business because he DID NOT CARE about his work--he was the laziest director imaginable, rarely doing retakes unless forced to by an unsalvageable take.
In his later work, you can hear the actors' performances suffer, because the actors just stopped caring--they wanted to spend as little time around Foster as possible.
He ruined so many dubs he worked on, such as Penguindrum.
It eventually came to a head in a show called Guin Saga, where the actors just decided "fuck it, he's not listening anyway" and started doing their lines in silly ways--and they were right, as those takes made it into the show.
I wonder what would make a show a good dub back then. I understand today because of the localizers ideology being leaked into the translation. They even came out and said as much. But that obviously wasn’t the case back then. For example, last year I watched Mobile Suit Gundam for the first time with English dubs. I thought they did a good job, but it being my first time watching that show I wouldn’t be able to tell if they did it right or wrong.
Unless they're voiced by Vic, you can probably safely assume they're racists or rapists. Or both. Or would be, if they had the opportunity to, according to the ideology they espouse.
Sean Schemmel is a leftist snake who falsely accuses actually decent people like Vic Mignogna of being pedophiles, along with being massively egotistical and getting other Goku VAs kicked out of conventions because he views himself as the "only" voice of Goku.
Well, Saiyan do naturally have prehensile monkey tails ...
And ecologically speaking, as a species, they're Super Apex predators, evolved to hunt technological species, even though they're not tool-makers in and of themselves; they're just smart enough to learn how to use them, though, and that's where Frieza comes in. He basically taught a primate version of Wolfen how to use guns.
gonna be honest, if you're listening to new english dubs (crunchyroll no less) in current year, you're part of the problem regardless, as you can see who populates the industry.
Most of the old LA talent who used to do quality dubbing that people liked in the past (and somehow were professional enough to generally avoid political subjects and cancerous behaviors) have largely moved on, save for a few roles here and there by someone. Its mostly either random talentless nobody zoomers and influencer wannabes, or old established leftist toxic cliques from the Texas area (think Funimation and people like Chris Sabat) that handle most dubbing these days.
You know how some non-white men are like "you can't date OUR women! they belong to US!!!!" because they're loser incels who can't get pussy and they see white men taking "their" ethnic group's women and seethe?
this is the dumbass woman version of that same energy. "you can't take these acting jobs, they are OURS!!! that character is in some way derived by a source that is non-white somehow, so whiteys aren't allowed to have it!!!"
It's just anti-white racism, and the self-hating whites just let them do it.
yeah that sub and hapas are examples of dudes seething 24/7, though I've seen plenty of guys IRL do this. mostly asian guys, sometimes hispanic. never black "aww shiet nigga u can hav em, now where da fat white women at??"
The show is good. Obviously none of this LGBT bullshit that the crazed alphabet people are saying it is. As for the voice actress it makes sense she would be white. They constantly call her a country hick in the show. I can’t tell if it’s because she’s from Earth Mercury or because she did live in the middle of nowhere, but if these idiots want to play this game then they are most definitely wrong in the choice based off race.
EDIT: Got mixed up. Show is literally subtitled Witch from Mercury and she’s suppose to be the witch.
Anairis or whatever got so much pushback about this that she deleted her account. So hey, some good news. I think people might finally be so sick of anti-white racism that they're willing to speak out against it even though they'll be labeled white supremacists for doing so.
Nazeeh only got minor pushback, but his posts were also so steeped in newspeak nonsense that most people simply had no idea what he was talking about.
If I were a Twitter poster, I'd have been bombarding her with images of her VERY WHITE ROLES telling her to shut the fuck up. Glad I don't appear to be the only one getting the idea.
Don't care about dubs, a lot of the people working in that industry are utterly garbage people and in any way engaging with dubs gives it legitimacy. It is the inferior product and these fart sniffers need to know their fucking place.
Watch the original with subs like a normal person.
Don't care about the dub anyway. Though I really liked that people were shocked when Yoshiyuki 'Kill 'Em All' Tomino started showing why he has that nickname.
I thought Tomino retired. I don't think he has that big a role in this one - he shares a "created by" credit, but not directed produced or written by credit, and I don't see him on the staff list.

Exhibit A.
lol that was exactly who I was expecting.
No they're not. There's literally two characters in Witch from Mercury that are obviously Middle Eastern and black.

The character in question is just the "tanned rural hick" stereotype you see in anime all over the place.
Wait, that blonde surfer dude is supposed to look Arab?
Not explicitly, but his name is obviously borrowed from Sadiq or Shadiq, which are both Arabic names. Maybe I'm falling into the "coding" trap myself, but he's 10000x more Arabic than Suletta is whatever they're claiming she is.
Also, they gave him and only him harem pants and sandals. Don't tell me that design, paired with the open shirt, isn't evocative of Aladdin. Cut off his sleeves and bro would be singing A Whole New World. https://it.gundam.info/about-gundam/series-pages/witch/gwitch/jp/character/2022/07/05_front.png

hyper blonde arab princes and princesses.
typical anime trope. here hindu version (warning NSFW): https://i.ibb.co/2k71fdM/335.jpg
Isn't tanned with light hair an entire genre of person in anime? I can't remember the word for it
I can't be the only one who prefers to watch these sorts of things in their original language with subtitles.
These voice actors should go protest in Japan that a Japanese actress played the role.

The first 3 seasons of DIgimon are really the only shows where I can vouch for the dub being worthwhile.
Ghost Stories is worth a watch in dub form.

After everything we've seen by now from absurd "localisations" to kick Vic, that should just be every dub watcher's default assumption.
Unless they're voiced by Vic, you can probably safely assume they're racists or rapists. Or both. Or would be, if they had the opportunity to, according to the ideology they espouse.
Uh-oh, Sean Schemmel isn't a shapeshifting space monkey, so I guess he can't be Goku any more?
Sean Schemmel is a leftist snake who falsely accuses actually decent people like Vic Mignogna of being pedophiles, along with being massively egotistical and getting other Goku VAs kicked out of conventions because he views himself as the "only" voice of Goku.
I guess Goku does technically shapeshift, but it sounds wrong to describe him that way.
Well, Saiyan do naturally have prehensile monkey tails ...

Obviously they should have cast a Mercurian.
I don't know shit about this dyke show, but all I see is a green eyed redhead. What did the cucks want, a sheboon casting?

Left wing ideology destroyed the white race.

Just more reason to watch subbed.

Jesus fuck, the guy doing the complaining is A MEMBER OF THE CAST???
The only correct response: "We've heard you, and we have a casting decision to announce. Bye."

what, they didn't get an authentic mercurian to voice her? fucking spacists.
Joke's on the wokesters. Probably won't be long before we have AI-generated dubbed voiceovers driving most human voice actors out of their jobs.
How is she terrible? She's been great in everything I've heard her in, including Nanoha and Vivy.
Speaking solely in terms of performance here--she may well agree with these fools.
A bad director can get bad performances out of great actors.
A great director can get good performances out of weak actors.
Do an Alex Von David dub, such as Madoka Magica and Kill la Kill, and get back to me.
Seitz...damn good actor, but I guess he's not so good in the director's chair.
Patrick Seitz is a hilariously nepotistic piece of trash who can't direct most dubs to save his life.
I don't even want to say what he did to Fire Emblem stuff like Heroes.
yeah he's an obnoxious leftist, that's unsurprising to me kek
If you watched kill la kill dubbed you should kill la kill yourself, the fuck is wrong with you
That said, I know of christina vee from her cover singing, which she actually does well.
Why?
Don't care about the dub anyway. Though I really liked that people were shocked when Yoshiyuki 'Kill 'Em All' Tomino started showing why he has that nickname.
That was thirty years ago.
He's gotten over himself since.
I thought Tomino retired. I don't think he has that big a role in this one - he shares a "created by" credit, but not directed produced or written by credit, and I don't see him on the staff list.
