CATBLUE Premieres at NY Anime Festival 2007

[valleus]

Dubbed or not Ive gotta see this.

[DamienStryker]

Weird... I figured that peeps would flock to it because of the way that it flows. I'm a sucker for any OPs and EDs with a band in the back... not guitars and screamers... but a suttle jazzy feel. On any account, I think that it looks pretty promising. Sometimes, the better things are held in dub form than subbed. Look at Nerima Daikon Brothers... totally better with the dub. Long story shortened... I'm looking for it and I can't wait to track it down. Can't go wrong with cat girls!

[bartybaby]

Yeah looking for that song too, so retro!

[padavan]

soz wanted to write english

[padavan]

whats the name of the song that plays aound 2:15 when they start to shoot down on the disco scene pls both englush and japanese versions of it would be nice

[patchesdf]

I like the animation, the story, and the concept, but oh boy the script needs work.

[blackknightavalon]

So where can I get the DVD (if it's available)?

[Resvrgam]

The model they used at the San Diego Comicon (2008) was gorgeous! Though she could barely manage English, I managed to get a picture with her. 10/10 in my book.

[ArisaChu]

hehe!

i liker her ears! its so cute! ahaha!

[saiberunato]

I saw this at the New York Comic Con. Absolutely fantastic! I need to get this soon.

[KoyotoShadow]

The art style reminds me of... .hack//G.U.  This is a good show, too!

[RedStarRevolver26]

Its like GTA Vice City in a way

[OMGmyFACE]

Man, had I known, I'd have seen this on a big screen. Still was awesome, very awesome.

[PockyBebop]

Very edgy...I like it!

[CaptLucifer]

omg the acting is horrific! xO

Aside from that, I'll be at NYAF with the Bleach cosplay army xD haha

[Kimiden]

Well they casted directly from this English speaking talent agency in Japan. Go fig.

[greatgaara]

I seen the whole thing, and the voice grew on me. It took some getting used too, but the voice is actually pretty good, especially since its really hard to do this with this type of animation. It's the script that need a bit of doctoring. Only the anime freaks are going to complain about this, and that's kinda sad.

[wartarot]

If someone were to say -all English dubs suck- then you would have a point, but the fact is some are good and others are bad and this is one of those cases when it should have been better. So I'm kind of an anime freak or maybe my ears work, I dunno.

But you know it's not a good dub, that's why you made a pre-emptive comment at any criticism directed at it.

Now that is sad.

[greatgaara]

First of all it's not even a dub. This is the original..no japanese voices were done. I like the voices (pretty good for a small studio working with 3-d cel animation..a very tough feat), so get over it. Your the reason why it's hard for people outside the anime genre to get into this shit. Forcing your opinions over others makes you look pathetic, and stereotypes the anime culture as bunch of dub-nazis.

[wartarot]

As I said in a previous post, Japanese or English, all animation is dubbed. And personally I find the voices dull and the script cheesy and stilted. But I have no problem with you liking the dub, rather your statement that anyone who doesn't like it is 'kind of sad'. Meaning anyone who disagrees with you is wrong.

And if your going to push your opinion as being the only correct one then expect to be disagreed with a lot.

Especially by me.

[greatgaara]

excuse me MR. "But you know it's not a good dub" - which is the reason I responded. I bet you don't refer to Disney movies or the Simpsons as "dubs." I never stated that people who don't like it is "kind of sad." Your putting words in my mouth..how pathetic. I was refering to the sterotypical anime fan response who ignore that a small indy studio voiced this, know its supposed to be cheesy, and knowing a japanese dub does not exist. I like it and I think anime freaks will hate it. GET OVER IT!

[wartarot]

I'm not putting words in your mouth, here is the quote from your first post:

*Only the anime freaks are going to complain about this, and that's kinda sad*.

If you really think the dub is good then why say it?

Of course Disney films and the Simpsons are dubbed. Dubbing is when voice actors record dialogue in a studio, but you stated that Catblue is not a dub. So how did the voices get there?

Go on, tell me.

[greatgaara]

THE SUBJECT is on "anime freaks," nuff said. Outside of anime..haters will just say the whole thing sucks.I don't REFER to Catblue as a "dub." Anime freaks will (it comes from Japan).Disney and Simpsons are not anime therefore anime people won't care.Now on to the first question,I commented on the "dub" because I was replying, go ahead and look back. Notice how it starts- "omg the acting is horrific" and felt the need to mention the Bleach cosplay. Even you must feel a little embarrased.

[wartarot]

You said that Catblue is not a dub and I asked you how the voices got there. You wrote a lot of nonsense because you ran away from the question. Because you're embarrassed and obviously have a problem with the English language, I'll keep it simple:

Did voice actors record the dialogue for Catblue in a studio?

Yes or no. Or are you going to avoid the question again?

[greatgaara]

Yes, it says so in the freakin credits...happy? That has nothing to do with what is being discussed, so I didnt want to answer such a retarded question. You are terribly immature and can't talk to people who have a different opinion. It seems all you can do is insult me directly and not carry on a converstation so I will stop responding to you now. Good luck in life, you'll need it.

[wartarot]

You say that I'm insulting yet you refer to people you don't know as freaks, haters and Nazis? You need to relax.

And am I happy? No not really. I don't enjoy running someone's ass on YouTube but you asked for it.

And thanks for the luck but I don't believe in it. It's better to know what you're talking about before you say something.

[AlbinoPlant]

The animation is superb... very video game-like.

[darkstar5555]

not dubbed, it is english. not japanese

[wartarot]

Japanese or English, all animation is dubbed- that's how the voices got there. Anyway, it's Rally Vincent meets Nuku Nuku. The voice acting is 1990 Harmony Gold with some bad lines and weird timing. Poor by current standards, there are many English dubs better than this.

Just for the hell of it I'd like to see what this show looks/sounds like with a Japanese dub.

[whichdan]

Not too crazy about the dubbing, but it looks pretty cool.

[subakukyuu]

can't wait to see it.

[PinkLemonadeSwirls]

Did this used to be a video game cause it looks like it. but I cant wait! OMG!

[SoaringReality]

aahh neko neko gurrl >3

[gabbynewneo]

[Thecowgirl21]

[retched]

This looks so good. Reminds me a bit of GiTS.

[superskh]

i want to go to this since it's on (and near) my birthday. but it's during the middle of the school year...

[nyanimefestival]

It's over the weekend. If school's a problem, you can always go Saturday and Sunday.

[superskh]

yeah, i might be going on sunday.

[Almafeta]

Are you going to fix the video cutting out every so often?

[Almafeta]

Erf, I mean audio. THe audio cuts out suddenly near the end.

[nyanimefestival]

The audio is muted around a few expletives in the trailer. The entire program will be shown uncut, unedited, and uncensored at the New York Anime Festial.
