The Jojo dub is a solid 'okay'. A few of the voices don't fit certain characters, but what really saves the dub is how damn good the writing is.

Have you watched the first 3 episodes of Stardust Crusaders? The voice cast is spot on, IMO
>>
>>141915393
I'm nearing the end of part 1. I hear the dub kinda falls apart in part 2, which is a shame since that's one of my favorite parts.
>>
>>141915500
Yeah, Part 1 is where most of the good stuff is. A couple of the part 2 antagonists have okay voices, but I found the others a little disappointing.
>>
>>141913990
I'm wondering if Viz will redub 1 and 2, or just use the WB dub and skip straight to 3.

At least we're getting BDs this time around.

No OP, it's not better.
>>
Do they all have American accents?
>>
>>141918172
They have English accents.
>>
Dio's voice is the best by far in it. I don't know what they were thinking having Ichigo voice Jojo1
>>
>>141913990
Like you even know who the Japanese voice actors are or understand what they're saying enough for a frame of reference.
>>
>>141918577
So they have Americans doing "English" accents. Thanks for convincing me to avoid it.
>>
>>141913990
Agreed, the English makes it more immersive and better since it's in England

I REALLY love Xemnas as Whamuu. He's the perfect fit for the character in my opinion

Why even bother

Oddly enough i found Caesar's voice quite fitting especially the death scene.

>>141926135

how would that suddenly change his speech pattern? that wouldn't change that fast.

he was raised a rich kid and it makes sense he sounds posh, like a rich kid.

The jojo dub is better than the sub.

>>141915393
Richard Epcar as Joseph Joestar.

Felt the same about Fairy Tale. So much humor is just better delivered in English. Well the abridged of FT that is.

Is that Italian accent? Sounds more terrible than Japanese accent.
>>

>being an autist about dubs
Just don't fucking watch the dub.
>>
>Jonathan
Okay, but JYB sounds too much like JYB.
>Dio
Excellent.
>Speedwagon
Very good.
>Zeppeli
Okay.
>Erina
Okay when young. Very good when old.
>Joseph
Fucking perfect.
>Caesar
Meh. Even with the accent, it still sounds too much like Eren or Kirito.
>Lisa Lisa
Wendee Lee's voice is always pure sex.
>Susie Q
QT.
>Stroheim
Not the finest in the world. Trying too hard on his accent to actually act and have fun with it.
>Whamu
Damn good.
>Kars
Okay at first, but really has fun with it when he goes "ultimate life-form".
>>

They way they resolved the "happy, urape, yoropikunee" thigh was probably the best they could have done all things considered.

>implying the english dub even comes close.
Joseph, Stroheim, and Wamuu alone already tip the scale
>>
>>141929908
Shh, let him believe. America strong, right?
>>
>>141926318
He was already an adult, sorta, by the time this happened. The accent he had would haveve been stuck, if that had happened to him at a more transformative age then maybe he'd be a bangin thug lord.

>Joestar mansion burns down when Jonathan fights Dio
>Joseph is already an adult by this time
Fucking what?
>>
>>141930890
Jonathan was born on 1868, his father died and the Joestar mansion burned down in the year 1888. Jonathan is literally 20 when this happens.
>>
>>141913990

such as?

cant wait to see how they butcher the road roller scene
