Sentai Abroad

[Shougo B'Stard]

In the USA we got Dynaman

That crappy Canuck parody hardly qualifies as "good [and faithfully] dubbed sentai airing in America."

I don't know....the Tagalog dubbed sentai that Doc Kouji and I watched were pretty good....just a lil name changes and stuff.

Yeah, a bunch of the english dubbed episodes just appeared and it's been pretty good so far. It's a serious dub not a Filipino Dynaman.

You're right. Faux pas?

What I don't get is...why the dubbing? Instead of wasting time hiring voice actors, why not just hire a few translators and sub the damned thing. I'm 99.9% sure that would be cheaper than dubbing. Dubs just...aren't a good idea. (Despite that, I'll likely be downloading the Bioman dubbed complete torrent Ogre has...)

but for Herricanger the eps were dubed in Chinese including the OP theme its the same tune as the Japanese version but wih Chinese lyrics.

Damn, I want to hear the Chinese version of the Hurricanger theme!

Better yet, I want LMF to cover the Hurricanger theme!

Simple reason - To connect with the local audience.

Well, it's that there's a bunch of rude, closed-minded, know-it-all bastards in the business who look down on the population of movie/television audiences and think they're "too stupid" to "read a movie." But little do these suit-idiots know that nobody can take a dub seriously, therefore, they're avoided.

These moron suits are also the reason why we end up with **** TV shows like "The O.C." or reality junk and shittier movies like "The Dukes of Hazzard," because everyone in Hollyweird treats anyone who isn't in the business like they're a damned dunce when...it's them!

right on, my brutha.

 

[Kouji Kabuto]

Hey, that English dub got me hooked...

I've watched Flashman in Japanese, Malay, Chinese and Portugese language. Same goes for Kamen Rider Black with these four languages.
