This just so happens to represent the troubles all of the characters tried to run away from, thus "leaving their food in the fridge" THE MORE YOU KNOW

@arhainofulthuan AH! Eden of the East is wonderful!! Of course, I've only watched the dub version, though ^__^ I think a good example can be found in Code Geas's dub. I admit, its very good, but I still do prefer the English dub. My ears might also be dull to the nuances that can be found in Japanese dubs, because I don't listen to them that often.

@l1meyman Somehow, the dubs are just not that believable to me. The voices just don't feel like they belong to the characters for me, somehow. I've seen a lot of anime, but haven't really picked up on that "standardization" you speak of (could you give me some examples of other anime?), I'll start paying some more attention to it, but I don't solely watch anime with that Cowboy Bebop kinda character setup anyway... Right now I'm watching Eden of the East :)

lol I totally get it, but I tend to enjoy dubs a lot better. In my earlier post, I ran out of room but I meant to explain that in Japanese originals there's your standard male Japanese voice, a bit too deep, monotonous, There's a "Big guy voice" a little obnoxious sounding, loud, more expressive than the first example, but not much. There's the effeminate male voice, same as first archetype just lighter. Then you have female voices that either range very high to sultry, There's no variety...

@arhainofulthuan Lol I assure you, I do have auditory organs that work just fine. I know we're never going to agree, but I'll stand by the notion that Japanese voice acting is just not my cup of tea. In most original casting, most characters have a sort of "archetypal" voice role.
-
@l1meyman But there are exceptions to this. Cowboy Bebop's dubs are pretty good, but I've just grown more attached to the Japanese Spike's way of talking :)

@l1meyman It is actually because we have ears that we hate (most) dubs. It seems like they are just done quick and dirty to cash out most efficiently. In the originals you can hear the production values of the voice-acting. Also, the director of an anime is never involved in creating english dubs and his vision will get lost or muddled in the dub. A lot of times the voice actors are just quirkily overacting and do not seem to take their jobs as serious as their japanese counterparts.

@l1meyman There are those that watch anime, and then there are Weeaboos.
Bebop is also a style of jazz..
