So, I found out some local terrestrial channel is broadcasting Lucky Star dubbed in Tagalog everyday at 5:30 in the afternoon.

And I'm like, whuuuuuuut. I gotta check out how much fail this is. It's not really the kind of series you can just translate and shove in there, ya know? At best, they gotta Asterix and Obelix that shit.

They're also doing Clannad on prime time, so I guess I get to finally check that out too. In Tagalog.

Do Tagalog dubs sound better than English dubs of anime to you? Or do they make your ears bleed as well?

About on par with the ratio of suck to success. Most are really bad (not to mention having a weird volume imbalance where the voices are louder than everything else), some are really memorable.

Everyone, and I mean everyone, can still shout lines from the Tagalog dubs of Voltes V, Mazinger Z, Daimos, Lupin III, and Yu Yu Hakusho. That's how popular and awesome they were. The recent Code Geass dub was really good too, but it's pretty hard to fuck that up. I mostly enjoyed it for the awesome maniacal laughs.

Lucky Star looks to be leaning on the suck side though. This is the TV ad.

Man Mango must have been drunk when he subbed this episode... never seen so many errors, and I'm sure I saw some text flash on the screen for a few milliseconds when no one was talking.

Actually, with watching PikaPuff play Monster Hunter Tri.

well 2009 was when i stopped buying negima and started reading scans. i caught up on my slack last week though. i had to pick up my giant backlog of 1 negima manga.

but for those few months my manga buying went to 0%. A 100% loss of manga buying.

Visited a friend's today and brought back a stack of stuff to watch, as I haven't been through his collection yet.

Ended up with Cromartie, FMP: Second Raid, Elfen Lied, Berserk and Negima. Not quite sure where to start, but I think I might go with Berserk.

It really is. Terrifyingly suitable though. The last 25ish seconds of that is great.

As for Berserk... Everytime someone says Midland I giggle, because there's a suburb near where I live called Midland, and it's a HUGE hole.

Cromartie and FMP are good stuff. Elfen Lied is brutal and pulls no punches, which can be good or bad depending.

That video may have convinced me to finally watch Eureka 7. But first I have to get through this stack of DVDs I just bought.

Speaking of the Nanoha Movie, I've posted the summary of the 1st Movie Drama CD before, but I found someone that someone uploaded it along with subs.

I was also doing some more research and found this little gem, for people like me who were wondering what happened to the Nanoha StrikerS manga license

http://okazu.blogspot.com/2010/01/yuri-network-news-january-29-2010.html
YNN correspondent Sean G. did some great investigative reporting this week, when he contacted Digital Manga Publishing and asked whether they had abandoned the Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS manga. Their response was 'We still have it. Lyrical Nanoha Strikers will come out this year. Vol. 1 is in September.' As Sean said, "there you go."

It's quite the downer, isn't it? The manga is worse on an unimaginable scale though, and also starts contradicting itself a hell of a lot near the end.

You should watch some ARIA to lift your spirits again.

I'm not sure what was worse, seeing what happened, or knowing full well what was just about to happen.

I was telling my friends we should've watched FLCL after, not before, to cheer us up after. (Which, I might note, was their first time watching it, and my 30th.

I'm going to keep going with Berserk in my own time now. About 5 episodes in so far after the one sitting.

Gaaahhhh, Part 3 of the Kara no Kyoukai novel has so many medical terms, I suspect Nasu Kinoko took a pre-med course or something (Note: this might actually be true, I don't know). I had to bust out the Wikipedia JP and Google something fierce to see what some of the names are in English.

Like what the fuck are "syringomyelia" and "neuromyelitis optica"?

Huh. Interesting.

Made by Enterbrain of Kimikiss fame, Amagami centers around a second-year high school boy who find himself uneasy during Christmas time due to an experience in the past. However, this year at Christmas, he gets his last chance to ask out a graduating female senior named Haruka Morishima — or one of several other classmates. The story of the anime will be arranged in an omnibus format, with each heroine getting her own version of the story animated. Each heroine will sing her own version of the ending theme song.
