I just started watching season 2 of the thousand year blood war and it is everything that modern media lacks. The concepts of sacrifice, devotion, self limitation, all of these are lost on the “modern audiences”. The fight sequences are brutal, and for a reason. The entire series really makes me wonder if japan really forced the continuation of the anime with the US caving for profits because it goes against every woke sentiment they have.

...and I'm out.
A good localized dub can actually be better then the sub. Both the original Akira Streamline audio from 1989, and the great localization of FLCL are proof of this.
You really need to expand your thinking beyond group mentalities and rules of thumb.
No, I've simply consumed enough content over the years to develop accurate heuristics. The exceptions prove the rule in this case. I love the dub for the old Digimon series, but that doesn't mean I'm going to default to bothering with dubs when the demonstrated quality of said dubs(both the performance and the localization/script butchery) is commonly of low quality.
So if we lose 5% in translation, but the over all experience is 300% better, that's still a "No"? The torrent is out there, the episodes are in movie length episodes. You can choose to look over 1 episode, and decide for sure.
At this point you're just looking for an excuse to keep arguing with a stranger on the internet. Fuck off and move on with your day. I'll enjoy my anime however I damn well please.
