There are definitely latinos here, but I don't see much on them on Quebec shows. The number of them is not that big though. I will probably get some hate, but I kinda feel the same way about seeing this than when I saw who played Triss in the Witcher. --- Dragaux for smash! <cite>epik_fail1 posted [p:943704839] in Quebec mad...

slmcknett 08/22/20 10:11:34 PM #15:	This seems like a lot more work than just dubbing the actual show into French or something. Why even bother doing this? It's not even like how the US adpated The Office, since they took a broadstrokes approach from the original and basically made a different show by the end. This literally looks like a copy-paste of episodes and environments, even having the characters wearing identical uniforms. --- Watch "Final Fantasy XV Abridged" and "Kingdom Hearts Abridged" right here! https://www.youtube.com/user/mcknett3 <cite>slmcknett posted [p:943705914] in Quebec mad...
