Yamato from One Piece will be dubbed by non-binary actress, because Crunchyroll still insists Yamato is trans, Eiichiro Oda be damned (twitter.com)

Follow-up tweet showing Yamato among the women.

No one is allowed to ACT anymore.

Gays must be voiced by gays.

Black people must be voiced by black people.

Trans fools must be voiced by trans fools.

You are ONLY allowed to play what you are already like.

No stretching your chops. That's homophobic/transphobic erasure, don'cha know.

The thing I despise most about Crunchyroll is that it's a waste of a great business, if they just cut off the western side for decision making purposes they'd easily monopolise a lot of the anime streaming market. But because of dumb shit like this they invite competition and piracy.

It's like being able to have a golden goose laying gold eggs but giving it up because you don't want to care for it.

It just now occurred to me:

Gurren Lagann is one of my favorite anime of all time.

If it were to be dubbed today, I GUARANTEE Leeron would be voiced by an actual flaming homosexual and not by Steve Blum acting very unlike most of his other roles.

Again:

No one is allowed to ACT anymore.

Acting is hard, just get (insert minority) to do it than an actor willing to research a part to this degree

It's part laziness and the other part is an attempt at ensuring the industry is only full of people with the same ideology to create hegemony as even if you don't believe it, you ONLY got in because of your minority status so know your place.

It's similar to Affirmative action in education.

Doesn't matter how well you research or act if the casting director says "Cool, but you're white. NEXT!"

It's why I quit my voiceover dreams.

Damn shame, best bet is to not give up but do something independent.

Seen more popularity in online comic dubs so as long as you ask permission of the author this is always a possible route for your passion

Thanks, I appreciate it.

I was actually once stopped in a restaurant and told I had a great voice for radio--by someone at the next table who claimed to work for a local radio station.

I kid you not. I wish I could prove it.

It’s like they saw that episode of South Park where Cartman was tricked into thinking he’d become a ginger. He suddenly become militantly pro-ginger, which includes terrorizing an actress playing Annie because she’s not an actual redhead. Apparently, a lot of liberals saw that behavior and said “yes! That’s how I should be!” Of course, in 2014 we got the Annie movie with a black actress as the titular character, so whatever.

Even trannies are transphobic.

An article recently was talking about a doctor (like Larry Nasser) checking the female junk of soccer players. Anyways, the article called it confirming the gender identity.

I hope the creator tells CR to fuck off and finds a difference localizer that isn’t this corrupt. Who am I kidding? They’re all corrupt.

This nonsense could be put to bed overnight if the creators and licensors would just give a shit about what happens to their art outside their borders.

Nonbinary, so a woman who wants to be extra special in the laziest way?

Oda should have been more careful with this nonsense. I will give him credit for creating Okama, the most accurate depiction of trannies ever.

Finally, a truly representative cast.

I'm not opposed to this strictly. If they can act the part, it shouldn't matter if they are male, female, lizard, or amoeba.

That said, they're going to make her sound like a tranny, aren't they?

I don’t get the issue here. The character is a woman and the actress is a woman. Makes sense to me! Half-baked gender theories, whether by Crunchyroll about the character or by the actress about herself, don’t enter into it for me.

But is this a nonbinary neckbeard or a hot nonbinary like Emma D'Arcy when she actually looks like a woman?

Women that sound like men are pretty common. More common than men that sound like women which only happens if they're effectively castrated.
