If you're watching Jojo with English dubs, you're doing it wrong

[Dal920]

Because then you can't appreciate the Engrish

how is watching english dub doing it wrong

Almost all the Stand names were changed when Jojo came out in the US out of fear of law suits. Granted those same changes still exist in the official US subs, but by watching it in Japanese you can at least make out the real Stand names via the Japanese pronunciations

[AnimeMasterDub]

So basically you are saying Jojo got 4kidz-ed

[Sanger Zonvolt]

Not really. 4Kidz censored shows to make them kid friendly. Jojo names were changed to avoid dealing with lawsuits from American record companies

[AnimeMasterDub]

yet 4kidz changed the names of characters too

[Sanger Zonvolt]

Pretty sure those were all for localization reasons, not to dodge lawsuits.

[AnimeMasterDub]

same diff

[Sanger Zonvolt]

One is for the sake of protecting themselves from a bombardment of lawsuits and avoid paying asinine royalties while the other is for the sake of "Americanizing" a foreign show and to needlessly censor "violent" elements. It's a pretty big difference

Either way you should watch Jojo with Japanese dubs

[AnimeMasterDub]

i like to leave my reading in the manga and in the fanfiction departments don't get me wrong i would watch an anime in subs if dubs weren't possible but since jojo is in the anime that is being dubbed department i will stick to watching it in english dub

and yet he still acts like egotistic asshole

[AnimeMasterDub]

Do you ever have trouble deciding what anime to watch?

[Sanger Zonvolt]

Not really. I'll watch something currently streaming if it sounds interesting, and I'll either keep going until I'm caught up or drop it if after 4 episodes it seems bad. If I'm caught up I'll find an old show that I never finished and go through that.

[AnimeMasterDub]

thats not a bad strategy but it does have its drawbacks

[Sanger Zonvolt]

Even if there are, I generally don't have enough free time that I encounter an issue with not having any shows to watch, so it's not really an issue for me. I also don't place as many limitations on what I watch as you seem to.

Speaking of the season, I'm a little behind on things, but I have been watching Gridman, UzaMaid, Index S3. What's everyone else been watching this season?

[AnimeMasterDub]

I have not seen gridman yet. How is it? I am currently watching Radiant.

[Sanger Zonvolt]

Gridman's pretty good and is definitely better than Franxx by miles. If you haven't checked it out yet I would highly recommend it
