actually i can understand the language fine

and yes, the jap voice actors are pretty bad most of the time since they try to sound "professional" in the english sense, the only time they excel at voices is when they are doing really stereotypical japanese voices like the cutesy girls and ibuki theatre voices

that being said, i don't use japanese audio because i like the voices better, i use jap audio because most of the time it is the source audio, and is the highest quality audio track available

most dubs either use entirely different sfx, really bad timing, or have hissing microphones and other oddities that are a put off

Let's assume that the English and Japanese voices are both objectively bad. I speak English, so I can understand that the English is really bad and hard to listen to. I can't speak Japanese, so it does not tell that it is actually bad. Therefore the Japanese is relatively better than the English.

In this scenario, the only way for the Japanese to be worse is for the English to actually sound good, which never happens.

I'd rather listen to the original with subtitles than some butchered dub I understand.

The "original intention" is also for you to watch it in the voices that were chosen by the original staff. Those voice actors were chosen for a reason, and characters are often made with a specific actor in mind from the beginning, even in regular movies.

Dubs are just inferior.
>>
>>339689720
Pretty much this.
One example would be how Oda imagined certain voice actors in his head while writing and drawing One Piece's characters, like Yao Kazuki for Franky, who eventually ended up voicing him in the long run.
Wouldn't watching it with a dub be a good example of going against the original creator's intentions

Not if the original is in a limited language like Japanese, which has one of the lowest range and versatility of any modern language.

The best Japanese voice will always fall short of a moderate English/French one.

I don't care what language something is in.

There is no argument for the original being better, it is simply an appeal to origin. I don't blame you, most white people fall for this trick where you defend something to the death despite objective flaws.

If the dub is actually well made then there's no significant issue because the voices can be just as well picked if not better.
You won't have a natural attunement to the writers native language so you won't get the same vibe that they did when choosing the voice for the character anyway.

At best you're getting a rough outline of the original intention and vision unless you can speak the language.

That's not even getting into the boat of whether or not the creator is just awful at choosing voice direction because of personal skill or shit taste or whatever.
Sakamoto had a personal hand in the english voice direction of Other M and that just ended up significantly worsening the end product (Voices in this case isolated from gameplay and story).
He probably doesn't speak english well at all but that's an example I can present to support my argument that the creator's input does not automatically make a voice better.

If there's one thing I can say in the favor of japanese subs is that there is plausible deniability when the voices are bad (Unless they decide to speak a language I understand with stilted english or worse) or poorly directed and that jap subs are more tolerable than most other languages I have experienced subs of.

This guy fucking gets it! I will watch Samurai Champloo or Cowboy Bebop dubbed any fucking day, but I would rather play purse owner or SMT in Japanese because I don't feel like the dubs quite cut it (they're better than some).

>this thread again

Jap games and their characters were designed with Jap voices in mind.
When you have a colorful character trying to sound all serious in English it just doesn't feel right. With Jap voices you subconsciously relate it to anime so it becomes fine. Many dubs also have actors trying too hard to copy the fast, high pitched sounds of Jap voices and it becomes cringey.
Jap voices might sound the same for native Jap speakers, but because I don't speak it, it's easier for me to ignore it and focus on the rest.

Americans discussing anything language or pronunciation-related is like CWC handing out dating advice. Your so-called opinions and experiences are wrong. You're retarded. Stop talking about the subject as though you know something. You not only know nothing about this subject, you also don't have any idea how to discuss it and you've got zero will to research it.

I rarely care about the stupidity of other people but this shit just makes me angry and ashamed.

Fixed.

I prefer Japanese because I can't tell if it's shitty. I can spot bad English voice acting. Also I get sick of listening to the same English voices all the goddamn time. Laura Bailey used to sound sexy, now she's just omnipresent and annoying, and she's not the only one.

Am I the only person who puts voices in Japanese when I just don't give a shit for the story?

When I was playing the >story of battlefield 4, I couldn't care less for what was going on and just changed the voices to Japanese and the whole experience became more enjoyable because it felt like I was watching a bad anime, so I just played until I just didn't care for the game overall several chapters later.
>>
OK dub fags name me ten animes that had better voices than the original jap.
>>
>>339692043
Most of the anime I've seen have good dubs except for one or two characters. I don't think I've ever seen one where more than three main characters have shitty actors, but I don't watch anime that often.

Do your sanity a favor and don't use food analogies anymore.

>>339692041
Sometimes I do this and just imagine what the fuck is going on based on the action. Japanese is a good language for the reason you gave.

I also do the same thing with movies but I mute the TV and try to piece shit together on my own. It's more enjoyable for some bad pieces of media.
>>
>>339692726
Not him, but that's the only time a food analogy has ever worked. You don't need to know how to cook in order to tell a good meal from a shitty one. You don't even need to know the ingredients.

You don't need to know a language to determine whether or not the dialogue is badly presented.

Watching and listening simultaneously. And I wasn't even part of the discussion.

Most people can manage that with subs, and most people can also keep track of a conversation.

>>339692921
>Cooking food is the same as understanding a language

It's more like if you tried eating with a burnt tongue or while sick as opposed to not being able to cook.
Ability to cook doesn't directly impact flavor with two exceptions:
1. You alter your food yourself, with your ability or inability to cook. Namely by adding ketchup or whatever terrible seasoning/condiment choices you desire.
2. You know exactly what they did terribly and nauseatingly wrong and it alters your expectations of the food enough that it is revolting to you and it impacts you enjoyment of the food.

Oh wait, those two exceptions do actually make sense within the context of a sub so congratulations on your metaphor even if it didn't end up having the meaning you wanted it to.

The story behind that is that he wanted just a subbed release, publisher said it had to be dual audio so he literally (citation needed) got his family to dub it.

I think it is in poor taste to listen to dubs to begin with. If a movie is in spanish, I watch it in spanish, if a movie's chinese, I watch it in chinese. It seems disrespectful to the source material to have some people talk over it. Just read the subtitles.

Japanese VA and English VA are usually about the same quality, but it fluctuates. I'd trust an English VA to deliver a showstopping, memorable performance more than I would a Japanese one, but on the average I'd pick Japanese just because NOTHING written in Japan has good dialogue and if I heard it in English I'd immediately and permanently lose my suspension of disbelief.

That's the real reason why Japanese audio trumps English audio - the Japanese can't write for SHIT, and you realize how horrible the writing is when you hear it in English. Too bad the translators get caught in the crossfire.
