What the hell is a New York accent?

Wasn't there some dub producer that kept spooging the fail that used to be called TV Tropes with claims of it being Texass?

(Which, purely by coincidence, is where they were located.)
>>
>>134565978
Thank you, now I remember where I first saw that claim (I think). It was the dub for AZD.

Would you prefer they go the Commie way and make Kansai-ben into a Scottish accent?

How 'bout if'n we have both now yade?

Neh, I'd prefer that they stop trying so hard to "localize" $#!+. Farking jelly-donut lovers.

If you don't know jap then the effect of various accents/dialects will be lost in you. For instance, without localized subbing you would not know that Ebina-chan is a fucking hick.

My apologies for being ambiguous. The vast majority of fansubbers and most scanlators are fine - what truly drives me spare are most commercial attempts to dumb it down for Americans.

That's what TL notes are for. I miss those.

I think Ritsu would be the Keion most likely to have a black guy fetish desu. That's still not very likely since they all seem so asexual, but still.

Memes aside I'd say Mugi would probably just like average looking, ugly-leaning Japanese blokes since she's so fascinated by the mundane Japanese live she doesn't get to live at home.

I can see that. Even in k-on college men barely exist so it's difficult to tell. I cant decide on who I want to wife more, Ritsu or Mio.

I'd wife Yui. She has one of the most perfect designs I've ever seen.
