With localization beign sort of a big topic here I thought I ask about the non-english dubbed anime.
Im from latin america (I dont live there now tho) so the dub Im most familiar with would be the latin american spanish one.
It maybe nostalgia, but I remember really liking it.

That said its been years since I watched anime in spanish, for all I know it may have become as bad as the english one :gura-pain:

So whats your take on it, have you watched anime dubbed in another language? Was it good?

I'm from Brazil and I used to watch a lot of anime with brazilian dubs. I still believe they are way better than english dubs but the quality decreased over time. So nowadays I barely watch any anime in dub.

It is a fun novelty to hear characters in a different language but at the end of the day, I want to hear the actors chosen by casting with the direction from the actual director.
most of my hatred for dubs comes from the shit show that is the english industry. the nepotism, ideological poisoning, low quality, and overinflated egos of the drama school drop outs (there are a few that a way better than others) that are the actors.
I assume the dubbing business in foreign countries such as latin america the actors are far more humble and have a greater pool of higher quality talent as there is less nepotism but feel free to correct me

As a kid my house's TV antenna caught German channels and I watches YuGiOh and Pokemon plus a few years ago an online friend from Bosnia also sent me some torrents for a few classic anime series that had Slovene and Croatian dubs. Those non-english dubs that were made 10-15 years if not even longer ago are a billion times easier to listen than average Amerimutt woke dubs. All those faggy trends and memes that will be dead in a few months in those dubs will age even worse than milk. These woke fag "localizers" are perfect examples of fake fans and the disrespect that the normalfags have towards the original source material.
