American don't circle jerk voice actors like the Japs unless their name is Nolan North.

Japanese voice acting is fucking cringe worthy at least 80% of the time. Asian acting is usually shit in general though.

I play just about everything dubbed because I can't stand hearing Japfags screaming and over acting in everything they do.

>>
The reason I listen to subbed Japanese over English despite not understanding a word of it is because Japanese games usually involve lines that sound plain cringey when said in English. It's just a culture difference, the character actions (some of which are typical in Japan and not in the west, see pic related) are animated to go along with Japanese sentence structure, lines are delivered differently with emphasis on different parts. When it gets translated to English they fuck it all up, along with the female English voices going weirdly high pitched to go along with 'kawaii' anime characters.
If I understood Japanese perfectly then I'd probably cringe at it just as much, but if I'm reading and listening to a voice I don't understand it's a very different experience to hearing every inflection and emphasized word and understanding perfectly how weird it sounds.

If I could I'd have Eng VA for males and Jap VA for females.

I feel like I'd connect better to the character if I understood what they were saying as opposed to reading everything they say while hearing them say a bunch of gobildy gook speak, but once I choose one voice I can never go back because if I change their voices they'll basically be completely different characters to me. So if there's an anime or something I'd be fucked if I used the English voices for the game. I'm trying to learn moon anyways so hopefully I can overcome this impasse

I'll never understand the appeal behind Engrish. It's fucking disgusting and like nails on a chalkboard to me. For example, even when Revy in the jap version of Black Lagoon speaks half decent english it's just disgusting.

I would watch anime where the entire thing is dubbed in English by the original Japanese VAs.

The optimal solution is to turn off male voices and listen to jap audio. The best solution would be to have a choice to have the best of both worlds.

Fucking what?
The japanese dub is way better.
The whole manga/anime is a parody of japanese school-gangs, and the English dub doesn't do a good job at capturing that.
The english dub also completely changed the character of Mechazawa, which was top-tier in japanese.

I don't know the exact numbers, but I'm willing to bet the difference is HUGE. Seiyuu are literal celebrities while English VAs are a bunch of nobodies as far as the anime industry is concerned.

>>322553841
No, but I never bought a complete series for that kinda price in my life. Not when you can simply download it from someplace like nyaa on the day it's released. I hope the NGE blu rays aren't too expensive if funni actually gets rights to it.

Who knows? They either already have things ready in advance and plan on releasing it after 3.33 finally comes out, or they're actually doing a redubbing of the whole thing (I highly doubt this, but it was brought up in that podcast thingy last year), OR they haven't done shit regarding NGE at all.

>>322529442
An entire language is now a meme. Have we gone too far? Seriously though, some games just have superior voice acting in different languages, and even if you don't make it a common practice to always play in that language, if you can't appreciate a foreign game in that games language occasionally, you've become stagnant trash that is slowly destroying the human race as a whole.
>>
>>322554035
Yes, with the only problem that it ruins the whole thing.
In japanese all characters talk deliberately in a way that emphasises accents and syllables in words (r in particular), and it sounds amusing, as it is a parody of how japanese gang members talk.
That is a thing that an english dub will never manage to translate.
I'm not saying that the English dub is terrible, but comparing the two is completely stupid and saying the english dub is better is pure madness.
I'm neither a japanese or an english speaker, so I don't think I'm biased.

If they do that, I really hope they get the original english Rei VA back. The new one's good, but I don't think she's a good fit for NGE Rei. Do you happen to have the name/link for that podcast?

Cowboy Bebop and Samurai Champloo have pretty good dubs, they were both on Toonami after all

Most animes just sound right with subs though, A lot of anime dubs sound like absolute garbage to me like Durarara

You always watch, listen, or play media in its original fucking language you fucking shits. It doesn't matter what the fuck you're doing, what languages you speak, and where the source material fucking comes from. If you willingly allow yourself to experience Japanese games that have audio in them using an English dub you should fucking kill yourself.

If the English voice acting is adequate, I go with that. If the acting is... bad, then I go with the native language. I'm not used to its cadence and intonation, so it's harder to tell if it's horribly acted or not.
>>
Dunno
>>
>>322555434
Why would I do that? Out of some weird adhesion to an imagined concept of "purity"? Or because you genuinely think it's better?

Because especially when it's a Hayao Miazaki movie or something, and someone shelled out the big bucks for a good cast, there's literally no reason to be reading subtitles

Some english voice acting just makes me cringe like in star ocean 3. In which case even if the japanese is just as bad I don't understand it and they are space people why can I understand them anyway. Like playing zelda you don't have to understand Link to get what message he is trying to portray.

Goldenboy has some of the best english voice acting ever so it aint all bad.

I dunno man. They really got Kaneki's character mostly wrong, at least as far as I could tell. That and they keep segmenting it off weird and the art is worse. The openings are pretty ok though.

If it's about getting immersed in a specific place and time from the actual world, I'll use the language they speak there (i.e. Japanese in Yakuza, French in AC: Unity, amd so forth)

if it's a fantasy world, i'll do English, provided the dub isn't terrible. If it's Xenoblade Chronicles and I'm being expected to listen to Riki in English, it's back to Moonspeak

Street Fighter 4's voice setting for each individual character is the best thing to ever happen to subs and dubs. I wish more games used it. Hell, I wish anime used it too; something like Code Geass would be amazing if everyone spoke their native language.
>>

Video games are made by large teams, and rarely are "auteur" directors involved. The concept of authorial intent only applies loosely, if at all. All of the voiceacting casts will be overseen by someone with an official-sounding title
