So literally the only shows to not get interrupted by randomly placed commercials for me tonight were Dragon Ball Super and Black Clover.

What scene? I only caught HxH.
Tonight's episode of SAO had a villain character who was a woman wearing a mask, and when the mask broke, she started getting all flustered. Kirito starting mansplaining that women can be good fighters too, he's fought several! And he started pointing out her insecurities like how she wears make up. Then the woman got annoyed because Kirito's eyes remind her of her lover or something. It was really strange.

you know it's kinda fucked up that fucking Dragon Ball of all shows is one of the less sexist ones on the block

lmao

I never watched past the first episode cause I didn't like how the deaths seemed like "nothing" but also the show just seemed like a poor person's .hack

Just wanna pop in to say Dark Phoenix's trailer line of "Every Hero has a dark side" is some hack nonsense, and I hate it.

All these European names are so dumb. It reminds me of that screenshot from that NES baseball game with the American names.

Someone posted this in the Super OT, bad dub of Ultimate Battle aside this is the weirdest... it can't be seizure protection can it? Jiren's shots are all fine, its JUST goku shots.

Kosaku-Kira & Leland-BOB

In the manga, we don't see Kira use a hairbrush. Much like with Leland, we're left to assume his hair just suddenly became lighter and Kira himself styled it back into a cornrow off-panel

I think the production staff just wanted an excuse to be able to kinda show off this art of Kira in an episode:

*reads Black Clover reactions*

Man, sounds like it was an extra stupid episode that aired that somehow managed to top the dumb sexism talk from SAO. I'm SLIGHTLY tempted to see how stupid it gets....ALMOST....

Also holy crap, I just realized I waited since August 2018 to use both the previous & my current avatar (thank you so much again, Plastic Shark), I played the freakin' long game for these reveals.

Can't wait to watch HxH when I wake up.

and just in case you missed it live, the archived episode on AdultSwim.com has the same shitty animation at that part, about 18 minutes in

seriously, what the hell happened?

also the Jiren shots seem to be noticeably darkened, even though the animation framerate didn't take a hit

It's an episode about the 'call me captain' lady and drunk witch girl having a contest over yami...it's just as stupid as it sounds

Omg omg omg

Here it comes here comes the son-

GO GO GO THE DISTANCE

OH NO

THEY FUCKED IT UP

It's not even that the song was dubbed because there are great covers of the song on YouTube but the cover they picked is the worst it's also too quiet

It's a hot blooded shonen song and the singer just doesn't have the pipes for it. And translating cheesy japanese songs always comes off 100x more corny in english.

I was excited for this episode and it's pretty much ruined by something as simple as song choice

Honestly I think half the hype was the awesome song without it it's not even as close as exciting

It's fine when the english singer isn't singing.

Also i kinda feel like Toei forces the english dubbing of all of these songs, Funimation isn't usually one to just go around dubbing songs that much even when it makes a lot of sense, like for the Isekai Quartet OP and ED which are both sung by the japanese voice actors

They did dub the songs in Pop Team Epic. Not the OP and ED, but the music video parts.

sure but that's part of the show and not just an insert song, but seriously i can't think of any reason why funi would dub ultimate battle other than it being some kind of mandate from toei

Yeah I'm guessing Toei forced it upon them.
Toei always has really weird demands with their properties.
Like how they can't refer to Goku by his full name, or that Luffy MUST be voiced by a woman.

The song was already used way too much in the original so this is sadly going to keep coming up and dampen some genuinely cool moments

Another thing, if Toei is forcing Funi to do english music then why not provide English versions like they did for HERO, Chōzetsu Dynamic and Blizzard?

just watched Shipudden and HxH after I DVRed them

It seems like the Hunter association's problems would be solved if they implemented background checks. I had to get one to work at Toys R Us and you mean to tell me an association of super powered agents given extra-judicial don't do that?

Everyone in the Leaf is a fucking dumbass. Minato for letting Naruto be an orphan. Kushina for agreeing with him. Saratobi for letting the Minato's son be treated like shit. Jiraya for only showing up in Naruto's life 12 years later and acting like he doesn't know him. Its all just infuriating when you think about it.

I don't think there is an English version for this song for them to use. I also don't think every Japanese band has the Luxury of being able to sing in another language. I do know the Latino dub changed the song during the final episode in Spanish, but left it alone for all of it's prior appearances.

So I have no clue what's going on behind the scenes.

I know there isn't one, but I mean Toei should provide one. Not speaking English hasn't stopped them before, they just do their own translation of the song and have the singer sing it phonetically.
