Alright, so I just started this series. I have somewhat high expectations, so I hope it doesn't let me down.

I tried to get Lauren into this series...took her like 8 months to finally dip her toes in, and she never continued it xD told me that it may be an insult to her immaturity, but Monster was too intelligent and serious for her to follow.

The sugar animes have conquered her xD

The best way to enjoy it is drop your life for about a week and absorb the entire series as much as you can in one sitting.
It's delicious.

EDIT2:

I don't like Eva's voice much...sounds a bit too sweet.
I'm anxious to hear her sound like a real bitch so I can make my final judgment.
I predict she won't be able to sound like the jealous bitch the Japanese one was, though.

I must say, the dub was actually pretty good so far. Only voice I didn't really like was Eva's.

afrobutt · October 13th, 2009, 05:09 AM

i liked eva sure it's not the same as the jap va but i liked how she switched from sweet to obnoxious

Vandread · October 13th, 2009, 05:09 AM

Tenma's didn't sound quite like I expected, but it didn't take long to get over. Eva did sound kinda sweet, but when you think about it, it's appropriate. Any kindness she had towards Tenma in the beginning was all fake anyway, so it fits that she'd sound kinda sugar coated.

bawww scalpels scare me bawww

yeah i tried to tell her to suck it up too, but no

Same here, Tenma's caught me a little by surprise, but I kind of got over it because he sounds okay.

I wish every anime studio had the budget to do what Uncharted has done....use real actors with real stage-acting experience to act out the scenes and record their lines realistically in conversation with one another, instead of each actor being isolated in a booth, having to portray their lines as they are told from the script. I think it'd make everything seem more natural.

Well anyway, I heard Eva say that line when she drops the ring and I think she may get better at sounding mean and nasty, but she's gotta work on it :P

haven't caught any episodes on Syfy yet, but it's coming on tonight at 11pm through 12am here in WA

Ty · October 13th, 2009, 05:37 AM

Hasn't come on here yet... well actually I have two SyFy channels (standard and HD). Standard is in my timezone, but HD is three hours ahead so I got to preview some of the dub while Heroes was on commercial break. Tenma was fine, Eva's dad was bad. Maybe it was just the scene.

I'll gather the rest of my thoughts later.

Vandread · October 13th, 2009, 05:41 AM

I barely remember what The Director's original voice sounded like, but it doesn't matter a whole lot now, now does it?

Same. HD Syfy was 3 hours before standard Syfy airing, although i didn't catch any glimpse of the HD one, since i'm already recording the other. I'm a little scared to here the dubbing, but all doesn't sound so bad from what i'm seeing in the threads.

Ty · October 13th, 2009, 07:00 AM

Tenma sounds fine and exactly like he should: an earnest man.

Yeah, I think Dr. Heinemann should've sounded more stern overall.

Becker's voice is so... off.

Dogenzaka · October 13th, 2009, 09:39 AM

Do any of you have Comcast? :( Those assholes are ripping us off for our HD service. We have like a grand total of 20 normal HD channels, and like 20 Movie HD channels. None of those are SyFy HD....Kinda wish I could have seen the show in a clearer resolution. Oh well.

Becker's voice is extremely off, and yes Eva's dad was pretty terrible (I think I know what scene you're talking about).
Good thing

Spoilers

Vandread · October 13th, 2009, 09:44 AM

Yeah, Becker seemed off too, but I couldn't remember how he sounded before either. Thankfully, he doesn't have much of a roll.

Beckers voice wasn't very good in the japanese dubbing either.
