I’ve been watching Gachiakuta in English since it came out. I usually watch the first episodes in Japanese and English to see which dub I like more, and I enjoyed the English dub more. But, for the second cour, Gachiakuta English dub is now delayed by two weeks? Why? That sucks for me, I really enjoyed the simulcast dubbing. I’m just going to wait for the English dub to release. I read the manga so I already will know what will happen, so it’s not like I’m desperate to watch the episodes when they release. But, it’s still a bummer for me obviously. Do any of you guys know why this happened?

The Japanese isn’t a “dub”, it’s the original language

No idea why it got delayed but this happens quite a bit with dubs I've notice. It is weird how it went from simulcast to a two-week delay though. It's actually the main reason why subs are better in my opinion. You can watch the new episode right away if it's not simulcasted.

Go read Sousou no Frieren and One Piece they're the best thing ever

It’s kind of a pain though. If a series is popular, it should be simulcast to give people more options if they want to.

@humzassgss Yeah it's unfortunate but that's how it goes in the industry.

For the record, the italian dub (who was simulcasted with the sub version) has also been delayed.
And apparently it happened to the french dub and the spanish dub too.

Maybe something happened with the licensing of the series abroad. Or maybe a problem emerged inside Cruchyroll

the 2nd core English dub is delayed for some reason it's coming out on the 26th onwards I think so the dub will be about 2 weeks behind which is stupid considering the fact we got simuldub in the first core. I think it's crunchyroll being crunchyroll

No it won’t and it’s simple as that. Yes sub is more often than not superior. But that’s just it more often than less often. There’s many shows where the dub is far superior than sub. Like leagues better. Incomparably better. Gachiakuta is one example, I started with sub like usual but the vibes were.. off to put it simply. Switched to dub after watching episode 3. And I don’t have the words to express just how right it is. But considering you believe sub is always superior, then you’ve never even had a chance to experience proper dubbed anime and wouldn’t even be capable of understanding what it means to have a dub that surpasses the sub..which is sad enough in itself.

True every language including Japanese are all technically dubs when it comes to anime but for sake of industry terms with media be it live action or not any dialogue that is added over the original audio in post production is referred to as dub and original audio with subtitles is called sub and original audio no subtitles corresponds to the original language be it Japanese Chinese Korean french Spanish Russian so on and so forth

The voice actors are dubbing the fictional characters movement, so it is a dub

Sometimes I prefer watching comedies in my native language, because they regionalise some jokes that doesn’t make sense in our country. In these cases I would say dub is better than original, rarely though

it's depends, as someone who language isn't Japanese nor English, and as who watches most anime's in Japanese i must say i don't agree. it depends, is it(the anime) worth going through the trouble of reading sub titles, and not having a comfortable experience and not enjoying the show? to it's fullest. absolutely not.

their are some show that are good in it's original language. and their are some shows that are not worth going to all that trouble. and some shows which have a grate dub.

for example I'll name some shows that have grate dub.
shows like. "To be hero X", "Lord of mysteries", "Delicious in dungeon", "Frieren Beyond Journey's End(yes Japanese is goat but the Eng dub is grate as well)". those are all recent shows that comes to mind. but other shows like "Black clover", "Grimgar", "My hero academy", "iruma kun", "The Case Study of Vanitas" "kill la kill" "Gurren Lagann" "cowboy bebop".

And i can keep on going which have a grate dubbing . That's why it depends on your preference. every language is just a fucken noise at the end of the day.

so watch it in language which you're comfortable or like. and it also depends on how much experience the voice actors of certain language have. and how long been that industry doing dubs for anime.

Delicious in Dungeon and Cowboy Bebop dub is goated. Death Note and FMAB is great too. Dragon Ball also has great dub. Well at least when they did re-recordings. The original English voice acting for Dragon Ball Z sounded amateurish.

if it's live action and the actor's voice are recorded during the scene, it's not a dub.

if they're doing ADR (Automated Dialogue Replacement - a post-production process where actors re-record their dialogue in a controlled studio to replace or improve the original audio recorded on set), then they're dubbing over the original audio.

all animations are dubs by default.

Leave it to Americans to fall behind schedule and be incapable of producing their work promptly. The English dub was bad anyway and filled with corny American slang. Americans should never be involved in anime production in any capacity.

@Hugo2Me

Hi. Dub only applies to every language except the original language it was released, at least in Anime.

Dubbing is "the process of replacing the original audio track of a video, such as a movie or TV show, with a new one in a different language". Or better "to change the sounds and speech on a film or television programme, especially to a different language".

The original language of a product is never a dub version since its the original product aka an unmodified version.

OP, I have no idea of what happened to Gachiakuta english dub. Most likely something happened if it suddenly stopped.

BANZAI NIPPON. Nippon is the Land of freedom. Nippon is the Land of Peace. Nippon is the Land of Justice and Prosperity.

In Nippon, we trust.

We love Nippon, we love Anime. Anime love us, Nippon love us. 日本

I believe in freedom of expression.

The animation is built around the mouth characteristics of the native language. Shows aren't reanimated to fit each dubs mouthing, but the script is adjusted to flow with the animation given.

I enjoy both dub and sub...and I can tell you that there are dubs out there that are absolutely GOOD. And dub doesn't ruin anime...if you prefer to watch sub I mean that's you no worries...but I'm just saying,there are some dubs out there that deserve a chance and actually turn pretty good

i’ve been watching Gachiakuta in Japanese for now because i’m studying Japanese, and watching anime helps with that. however, i’ve heard clips from the dub & it strikes joy in me— SPECIFICALLY jabber’s voice. i love when an anime with clearly black characters matches them with a clearly black voice actor.
