One Republic’s Too Late to Apologize.

I used to think they said “it’s too late for Papa Johns.” I have told my friends and family and they can’t hear the original lyrics anymore. Every time I hear that song that is what I hear.

Instead of “I showed my faith to the man in charge” its “I showed my feet to the man in charge”, I like my version way better.

“She needs him, that’s why she’ll be back again” is much better than “she feeds him”

Find anime with good english subtitles.

I usually download raws with fansubs to circumvent this.

Where?

subsplease dot org

they essentially strip the official subtitles of any fuckery or mistranslations rather than reworking from the ground up, so its more like a hybrid of official and fan subtitles. HorribleSubs did this for many years before them, so a lot of their work is out there too.

subs suck. Dubs rule

Voice actors in dubs are usually worse than the original VAs

Sorgan71 ,

The original VAs dont speak my language. Why even have sound if I’m not going to understand what they say.

Unless you speak the language they original VAs are speaking: How would you even know if they’re doing it good?

PeriodicallyPedantic ,

I actually kinda like that, because when the VAs are being cringy and shitty, I can’t tell. All I get is the emotion of the delivery.

And in the past, very passionate or emotional performances were really cringy in English, so I would prefer listening to the original VAs for the delivery of emotion and tone, and read the subs for the meaning.

Asudox ,

Exactly. I don’t care whether I understand it or not (I do understand some words and phrases as you learn slowly by hearing the same word(s) over and over again), the tone and the emotions the original VAs have are rare to be seen in the dubs.

ByteOnBikes , (edited )

I’m reaching a point where I’m exclusively watching dubbed. It’s gotten better in the past decade now that anime companies have a bigger budget to hire better trained voice actors.

Frieren and Delicious in Dungeon English VAs are amazingly spot on.

Pyro ,

That used to be the norm, but many newer anime (and older popular ones) have great dub VA talent.

Depends on anime and country. English dubs just sound off in nearly everything to my non-native ears. Brazilian dubs, on the other hand, often hit a good spot, but that could be nostalgia and/or bias. Portuguese dubs, on the other hand… Dear lord, just no.

Basically the original Cave Story fan translation versus the official one done for Cave Story+.

Saw this with the DnD5e translation. The fan work was leagues better than the official thing

“I’ve met a man with too many faces” sounds like three times cooler than “I’m not a man of too many faces”.

mostNONheinous ,

I always heard the lyrics to Cake’s I want a girl as “ I want a girl with the right eye locations”. Seems reasonable enough, nobody wants to date Sloth from the Goonies. And then one day a girl I was talking to told me it was “the right allocations” like measurements, and I’m not sure if I’ve ever felt dumber.

@VindictiveJudge@lemmy.world avatar

I heard it as ‘aisle locations’ which seemed to kinda fit the corporate success stuff.

Short Skirt / Long Jacket

Great song whose music video includes some beautiful shots of early 2000s Sacramento (where they’re from), including local news anchorwoman Dierdre Fitzpatrick when she was an in-the-field reporter!

I knew I got the title wrong haha

Mac ,

i mean, they’re kinda the same thing, tbh.

I always sing it “I want a girl with a short skirt and a looooong mustache”

Moustache by LittleBig, might be up your alley.

The fact that it’s lyrical gangster and not leprechaun gangster makes me sad to this day.
