Just watched the first 1/3rd of Samurai Champloo, was a huge Cowboy Bebop fan.

So far I've been watching it with english subs, but I saw the first episode with english dubbing and liked the voicing a lot. Any recommendations for/against going after more english dubs?

Aoi Bunkaku Series.

No longer Human: 11/10.. I can't remember the last time I saw as godly anime as this.
Cherry Blossom etc: 6/10. Imho, this was actually bad.. It seemed like a story they tell 6 yr olds in Japan or something.
Kokoro: 10/10 .. amazing, such simplicity, yet, such beauty.
Run Merosu: 8/10, nothing special really.
Spider's Web: 10/10 . THIS had some very nice philosophy in it.. I really loved it.
Hell's <something>: 7/10, nothing special either.


Overall this was a 9/10. I couldn't even think about giving a lower grade since "No longer human" was what it was.


imo
no longer human 10/10 gfg
cherry blossom 8/10 depression eps
kokoro 6/10 this was done too vague had to read chapter to understand
run melos! 11/10 this was great! simple ideas provoke lots of emotions
spider's web 7/10 ><
hell screen 9/10 gg
ovar all 10/10 ^_^

>.<

just watch the original version, kay?

It's an anime about feudal japan and samurais.. can you think one reason why you actually SHOULD watch it in english dub?

I'd understund that you'd watch Black Lagoon or something like that in english dub since only one of the persons in the anime is acually japanese (therefore the fact that they speak english instead of japanese would be more realistic). But now you're watching japanese anime with japanese ppl and Japan as scenario.

10/10 = masterpiece = you wouldn't change a thing if it was up to you..

judging from your post, you'd want to change alot of things, therefore you shouldn't give it a 10.

But suit yourself, I might be the only one here who thinks the meaning of 10/10 as perfect.

(although I have some pretty bad animes ranked 10/10 in my mal)

True. I didn't know how well the humor would translate, it seemed like some scenes were supposed to be funnier than they came off in the subtitles.

Right, that's how I have been.

It just seems like the jokes would be more comprehensible if I heard it in english, but I'll take your advice and watch the rest undub'd.

Watched all that's available of Bakemonogatari. Most likely my favorite anime of all time. Everything about it is just perfect.
