Just a question will you finish JJK this month?

Neila Reacts~

I just finished recording it. Just need to edit it

Jdogzero Silverblade

wont be watching cuz the ending pissed me off but hf i guess. would rather not get mad for no reason.

IntrepidInfinity

Normally I’m not a dub person but in this case the original game it’s based off of is English and so all the slang and jargon cannot be directly translated into Japanese which kinda makes the Japanese version feel like the dub. English also gets to use some VAs from the game. Both versions are great though

DotakuArt

Both are good but in this instance I would 100% go for the English Dub. Normally I am a "go with whichever you prefer" kinda guy but I genuinely feel like a fair amount is lost in the JP.

Philotes

Yeah, this is a rare instance where I recommend English dub. The Game is English/Polish so the English feels like the original while Japanese feels like translation.

ArcaneAnomaly

English, the show was originally in English.

agaki

Even if I am all into Japanese the subs everywhere is just eng dubtitles that don't match the japanese lines.

MrGRAFFITI

my choom, english dub or no watch..... don't be a gonk

May god have mercy on our souls. Cyberpunk:Edgerunners whatcher kit, 2-3 boxes of tissues, water, an emotional support and god's mercy. Peak music/OSTs, Peak Story, Peak Voice Acting, Just Peak... Peak... Peak... Zack Aguilar, Emi Lo, Alejandra Cazares did amazing job in English Voice Acting.

Chad

Yeah, this one really loses something if you don't watch it in English.

English dub in this voting, *BUT* I highly recommend that after your first reaction, you rewatch it with the German dub (in private, of course). This anime is one of the rare instances which in the German dubbing is 100× better (in my opinion) then the Eng. and the Jap. Dub! • For example, the choice of VAs: the Ger VA of Trunks (DBZ) and Tanjiro (Demon Slayer), etc. • The dialogue: they are more open, use swear words, and do not speak in a particularly standard way. • The Dialogue script is by *Björn Shalla* (also Ger. VA of Blitzø in Helluva Boss)

*Follow up Spoiler* to my post above, do NOT read if you didn't watched the Show yet! My favorite example of why the German dub is better: in the episode where David steals the car, he looks at the interior and just says "wow" in the English and Japanese dubs. In German he said: "wow, echtes Froschfotzen Leder" which (literally translated) means "wow, real frog-pu*sy leather"! That is only one of many similar examples.

Christo Badenhorst

I have seen the show a few times but always in english. guess ill slam german next time and see how it is, you got me curious.

Chamoun101

Das solltest du auf jeden Fall, das Dialogbuch wurde von *Björn Shalla* mitgeschrieben. (Ich werde es noch oben editieren)

Depends what studio animated it. If it was made by west based studio english dub is better. If Japanese based japanese dub with english subs its top. It's mostly because original studio have always better quality and timing and is not awkward in translation afterward because animations and lip sink with mouth movement many times effect how is animation done since original studio have always advantage because they are creating it and making it for their language. I did not watched it personally so I will not vote this time since I will not watch it as reaction. (I have self-imposed rule to never watch reaction of something I did not watched myself yet - to not ruin my experience from both).

Ditto Demo123

I would argue there are a lot of series that do really well in dub. Often I find that they feel cheaply done overall, and when they are actually done well the VAs are just too common of a voice and you notice it quickly. But then series like edge runners provide a well done experience with voices I cant really pin down to other characters. Generally if people say the dub is better, that means its gonna be a good show/movie too, so I am excited for this one.

I watched both eng and jp. Eng was better and felt more natural

Anon Ghost

Which ever way you prefer or how it is recommended for best voice acting.
