Posted 28 Feb 2012 *shos japanese voice. they changed his name? america, i thought we were over this. i thought we were done calling onigiri jelly dounuts settle down there. it didn't actually matter at all, nor is this a valid parallel. so you shouldn't get worked up over it. you didn't even watch the dub, so you don't really have a right to judge it the dub was good Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 28 Feb 2012 I always like Disney's dubs for Ghibli works, despite some Americanization sometimes. I'm just really surprised they even did that, considering Ponyo was aimed at even younger audiences and no names were changed in that. Sosuke, Fujimoto, everyone. xD But the dub was good; I thought Arrietty's, Hara's and Homily's VAs were all basically perfect. Shawn's was nice and suited his character, too. (And his English VA is also the guy from Wizards of Waverley Place. The older bro). Only thing I didn't like about the dub was some mistakes in lip match. this is to be expected of course, but I always felt like Disney's done such ace jobs with dubbing Ghibli films to make it look like they weren't even originally in Japanese. There were a few noticeable bits like where Pod's voice would keep talking and his mouth would be closed for a good second until it started again. But yeah, only the lip match. Also apparently the English VAs for Homily and Pod are married in real life. That made me smile. :'D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
