ITT we celebrate Haruhi getting licensed.
>>206178What?? Who? How? Anonymous demands details! My own meager Google skills render nil. :(
>>206186lurk more in /a/
Kadokawa USA got it.http://asosbrigade.com/
>>206188The hell is Kadokawa?
>>206200They also licensed Full Metal Panic: The Second Raid I think. Also Bandai is doing the distribution which probably meant horrible dubbing. Also who's the english speaking japanese girl in the video?
Patricia Lee. She used to be on Power Rangers (Turbo and Space) as the Pink Ranger, lol.
moar Haruhi
SAY IT AIN'T SO :(Haruhi will be spoiled :(
>>206906well, if they listen to there polls they will realize that we all want the origonal jap audio and decent subs. so it could work
>>207627Also, there's the hidden link that lets you pick out the dub voice actor... I think they're doing Mikuru right now.Choose your dub. Then listen to it subbed, anyways.
I think it's quite cool that they're paying attention. It's about time someone realised how dubs are always shit.
Not sure why this is cause for celebration...
>>206906Do you find that fansubs on your computer become dubbed when shows are liscensed?
Fine, we'll celebrate.
Anyone have any information about commercial translation of the books?
How about you dub bastards shut the hell up. Fucking weeaboos always spoil it for everyone else. Not every fucker in the world actually wants to have to read the damn subtitles to watch a show. Geez, it was the same way with Bleach.
>>207942Took the words out of my mouth
>>207942>>HAY GUYZ I CAN'T READ TOO FAST!Fixed.
>>207942does anyone else agree with me in saying that comment does not make any sense?you're fighting the two-pronged war sir!and I salute you!
Frankly, I have no issues with dubs. There are certain anime I watch dubbed anyway. But Haruhi won't be one of them. That'd just feel wrong.Animated.
So long as the dub is decent, no harm no foul. But let's home it's not another case of the Naruto-virus...
There's nothing too special about it getting licensed. Now if Shinkai's new work would come out already, that's a different matter.
I say anime should have both subs and dubs. Not just one or the other. Some people are nazi at dub tracks and think you aren't an anime fan unless you watch subs. Others can't stand reading subtitles and want to listen to people speak in their native language. Distributors shoot themselves in the foot if they abandon one or the other (loss of potential sales).
>>207990lol 4kids
>>206178IIRC the company licensing this is the american branch of the parent company that made this.Bandai gets to put their name on it, thats all.
>>208023So essentially this is a good thing
