@_@ Oh man. It was sub only. I didn't know they didn't do the voices in English. LOL. can see the gayness of hearing it in English. LOL. It'd make an impact. But why the devil no English dub? Not that I don't like subs but sheesh. Multitask during the subtitles is hard.

When I bought the DVDs a couple months ago, I was surprised there was no English dub.


However, I am also relieved. I was slightly curious to listen to a version in English, though only to see how much they screwed everyone up.



I do understand the difficulty of multitasking when you're watching subbed anime, though. That's why I make sure I'm not doing anything else, or have already watched it so many times I already know what's going on and what they're all saying without having to read the subtitles. 8D

watching it for the first time subs and trying to use a laptop is hard. @_@ expecially when the PC isn't facing the big screen at the library.

I'm really pessimistic and picky when it comes to English dubs. But there are a lot of series that I just don't think could be dubbed well in English, because of the (possible) weird translation of the dialogue, or, most often, I just don't think anyone else could voice a certain character as well as the original seiyuu.


In the case of Loveless, I don't think anyone else could voice Kio as well as Ken Takeuchi did. But that might be because I'm a total Kio fangirl, and I'm just afraid any English-speaking VA would ruin his voice/personality.


But, hey, it happened to Ryuichi in Gravitation. >>
I. Hated. His. Voice.


-koff-


Anyway.

I think it's cool that you might wanna be a VA, though. ;3
If I had a good voice, I think it'd be an awesome thing to do.

I'm kind of glad that Loveless doesn't have English dubs. I don't try to be, but I judge English dubs for anime pretty harshly, especially after I've already watched the anime in Japanese. I think part of it has something to do with the language itself, but English just doesn't seem to be the best language for some anime.

i just can't see the english voices i've always heard it in the japanese and the english would just seem to different to me

there are some good dubs. ^_^ Loveless i can see harder to dub cause the voices are way different. Yuiko is high and annoying, and very young. it's hard to find a "young boy voice" for ritsuka too. young voices are harder for adults. American dubs often use adults and don't deal with younger actors like japan. Also, japan has talented females to do young males. English is harder for girls to sound boyish.
