On the other spectrum, I remember watching the more mediocre In another world with my smartphone around that time and there being a line in the subs being something like 'I'd rather have a closeted pervert as my boss than a feminist as less rapey' so they knew that much already.
Dubs have long been a problem because the lack of consistent talent. In Japan it's extremely meritocratic so even in the most mudane story, it still feels like VAs still try to put in a performance with what they have. The dubs however, you can get the S tier stuff of FMA Brotherhood or Black Lagoon but a lot of the times it's like a side gig, that they're just reading lines for a paycheck. It made it easier to infiltrate the latter with activists than the former.
How can it be "the same 12 voice actors" AND a "lack of consistent talent?"
Serious question, this sounds incongruous. Did I miss something? I keep hearing that the same people keep getting roles, so you'd think that would be the definition of consistency...right?
Or the next-best people are so darn good that they become a threat to the clique.
Recently I heard a new guy named Reagan Murdock. Holy shit, that man has a GREAT voice. I hope he has a long successful career...or I would, if I knew anything about him as a person whatsoever, but my praise of his voice remains. He also voiced Iron Man on Death Battle, if you're curious.
But I just know he'll never be allowed to succeed past a certain level.
By the way, Cristina Valenzuela (Cristina Vee) is only 36 years old.
Does anyone really think she got so high in the hierarchy by pure skill alone?

Wait a second.

No. She almost certainly slept with everyone.
