I'm watching my sister's old copies of YYH(she got them before it was licensed in the US), and the subs are so bad.

Like, not just bad grammar, but they don't get the character names right - minor ones have their spelling change from episode to episode, and they mixed up Hiei and Kurama's names.

Bad dubs always win for me but I'm springing to be a voice actor so I've got more... er, personal connection to voices, I guess. Then again, I'd imagine most humans respond to sound above printed words but there are some otaku I'm not so sure about...! >_>;

When Toonami aired again a couple of nights ago and that Tenchi Whater-Spinoff-It-Was was playing, my god did my friend and I crack the f*** up pretty much nonstop at how god-awful the dubbing truly was.

But mixing up Hiei and Kurama is pretty bad...

XFD The thought didn't even cross my mind. I guess I'm a bit more of a Japanophile than I ever realized.

"So I'm at the local Subway and the guy hands me my Spicy Italian except when I sit down and chomp down, the salami tastes ancient and the lettuce is a lot browner than it looked from my side of the glass. The mayonnaise is rancid and the bread is hard as a rock but I asked for not-toasted. I immediately burst into a fit of laughter and all my fellow clientele did the same. We couldn't stop laughing and it was good."

Wait...what Tenchi series did they show on Toonami saturday? I didn't watch, I assumed it was a regular OVA episode.

Back in the 90s, fansubs were done on VHS

****ing seriously? Did they ever even air that on Toonami? That kind of sullies the entire revival joke, what a f***ing awful series.

It didn't. Toonami only played OVA1, Universe, and Tokyo.

And Toonami didn't play the original Astroboy either >_>

It would be like if some future network did an Adult Swim revival and played Pilot Candidate and Reign.

It was translated long before it was licensed, same as most series.

Ah Yu Yu Hakusho Subs.

I was showing that in anime club a couple of months ago. We were where Toguro first appeared and the speakers weren't working so we could barely hear it. So I turned subs on and you know the rest.

I haven't gotten to Toguro yet, it's hard to say where I am since the names of things are all messed up XD But it's where they fight the four beasts.

But if you're trying to watch a show and there are no other subtitles available, it can be pretty miserable.
