Chronicles of the Wings - TRC on Animax and QTV

[Okamirei]

watched the promo videos...-shivers-
They make Tsubasa sound like some kind of...! >__<"""

[bie liao]

-pats Okamirei's head-  There, there.  It'll be okay.  We still have the Japanese originals.  I'm rather interested in what Funi's gonna do too.  Could anything be worse than that?

[Okamirei]

-sigh- I suppose it's for the behalf of all those who can only watch dubs. I pity them.

[Mina]

True! I usually like Funi's dubs. They usually don't do too bad of a job.

Go listen to the dubbing of Detective Conan... I'm afraid....very afraid...

Yeah, like my dubbed loving, don't have a clue what anime is, freak sisters! They would love that episode! Aarrggg!!!  That is just so WRONG!!

[Shiunu]

Now I've never watched the Detective Conan dub. :/ I like the Fruits Basket, Yu Yu Hakusho, and Dragonball series versions of their dubs. I grew up watching those.

O_O You liked the DBZ dub? I hated it. I thought it was completely mutilated beyond all recognition. Kinda like... this. *shiver* But I did like the Furuba dub- it wasn't too bad. Haven't seen Yu Yu Hakusho dub, so I can't judge.

Yeah DBZ wasn't bad to me..

Well DBZ wasn't exactly a work of art to begin with. hehe.

I'd like to say something about the pronunciation of Sakura's name. I don't think there's anything wrong with it. People in Japan (have been living here for 2 years now) say it the way it was said here. Sa-koo-ra. However a LOT of people seem to think that it should be SAR-koo-ra (which just sounds stupid as shown in the second CCS movie dub where they listened to the fans). It's similar to the way they say Naruto in the new dub of that show. It should be Na-roo-toe but they say it NAAHH-roo-to which just sounds like it's trying too hard honestly.

If you say to a Japanese person: "I love Sar-koo-ra" (the way a lot of people think it SHOULD be said) they will laugh at you. It sounds stupid.

If you say "I love Sa-koo-ra" (the way everyone's bitching about which is actually correct)... well, that's how it's said.

Just had to get this off my chest.

* fan girls scream in horror*
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! *breaths for a second* AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! I might not have animaxe, but their voices were HORRIBLE! Kuroganes voice sounded like a mad siceintist! And Fai! *weeps*  what done with you! sound like... like I can't even discribe! and Sakura voice to spunky! and Syoran's is to old and weird! I think they canacle it before the other viewers get hurt! XD

[Kuro-puppy]

just watched the promo video's , one of them made TRC sound like a fashion show or something.

does anyone have the links to first dubbed ep since i can't seem to find it. Then i can watch it and probably traumatize myself in the process

[seren]

yeah, the promo is...

i have animax in Thai too but the schedule was the same as in singapore, so i didn't see it yet. i have to wait until may to see it

also in Thai they got Tsubasa...since last october but the cds weren't come out yet, i really want to hear it in Thai too (hope it won't too bad, sakura's sound in CCS was also terrible )

Wait, who ever said it should be pronounced "Sar-koo-ra"? I've never heard ANYONE say that.. Who threw that "R" in there? O.O

The pronounciation I always hear everyone complain about is "Sa-KOOR-a"... And that IS wrong...

I happen to know that when speaking Japanese, I have no accent at all and I pronounce it "Sa-ku-ra" with the "ku" a bit short. Not all drawn out the way some people do...

[Robin Sena]

Well it's just 2 episodes, and 24 to go!

Since there's alot more voice to cover. I know that Animax has a quite limited dubbing cast (they should get more to prevent overlapping).

2 days away for episodes 3 and 4! I wonder how will Primela sound like.

Sorry, my post wasn't directed at you. I just remember several old CCS conversations with people complaining that Sakura's name was said incorrectly in the English dub of the series and first movie and that they got it right in the English dub of the second movie (which used the SAR-koo-ra version). I assumed that was what everyone was talking about here too. Sorry if I misunderstood.

Um, what are you talking about?  Nelvana DID mispronounce Sakura's name.  It's supposed to be pronounced: Sah-ku-rah.  SehKOOreh is how Nelvana mispronounces it which is completely off.  Even Nelvana admits that they changed the pronouncation of Sakura's name.  Quoted from the official Cardcaptors website FAQ, "Are the North American character names different from the ones in Japan?  Yes, the North American character names are mostly English names, and are pronounced in a way that's easy to understand for English-speaking kids to understand.  For instance, while it is common in Japan for Asian languages to put the accent on the first and last syllables of a name (i.e. SAH-koo-RAH); in North America, names tend to put the accent on the second syllable (i.e. Re-BEC-ca).  We have adapted the pronouncations for our North American audience."  The CC dub DOES mispronounce Sakura's name, the uncut dub for the second CCS movie DOES pronounce Sakura's name CORRECTLY, and the Naruto dub DOES pronounce Naruto's name CORRECTLY.  If you don't believe me, go read the answer to the 12th question on the FAQ at the official Cardcaptors website yourself where Nelvana even admits that they mispronounced the names on purpose: http://www.nelvana.com/cardcaptors/html/home.html

so... I'm really the only one who found it "watch-able".  I guess this is what happens when you watch that channel every single day. You get used to the horrible dubs.

And yes, I also noticed that Touya and Yukito was dubbed by the same person. It was really funny coz I wasn't looking at the TV during that scene so I got confused.

hm.. I'm still watching this until the last episode. There's no way they're going to cancel this. It's a great show for those who don't download the original Jap. If there's one good thing about this, it's the fact that Tsubasa will gain new fans.

*Gasp* That's a bad thing Little Wolf-sama! Don't get pulled in by their evil! Remain faithful to the real anime! Onegai!

Yeah, by a bunch of people that don't have any appreciation for the wonderful Japanese culture.

[Angela]

Although some of those people might actually hear that the Japanese version is better and go hunt it down.

[~Bloody_Rose~]

yeah, me too. i'm going to watch it until the last episode.. y'see our computer is not that fast, so i can't download TRC episodes that much. I hope they air the seaon 2... and NOT dubbed!
