You've just made Jojo's Bizarre Adventure a work of comedy.

I'd legit watch that 🤣

skulblaka@kbin.social · 26 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Jojo's is already a work of comedy, but take what it already is and now imagine Joseph and Jotaro with thick cockney accents, Avdol as Bob Marley, Polnareff gains +6000% "HON HON BAGUETTE" style and Kakyoin is a drunk Australian half-assing his lines

Edit: in this hypothetical dub where every character is a caricature of themselves, Hol Horse remains entirely unchanged from original

With a name like that, it's NOT a comedic work?

Gestrid@lemmy.ca · 4 pts · 2y

Well, the English dubs of Parts 1 and 2 already use accents, so what they did isn't too far off from what we got. (Though, as someone who doesn't live in Europe, I have no idea how accurate the accents are. I imagine, like usual, they weren't very accurate.)

I really want to open up a dubbing studio that only hires people with strong regional accents so every anime can sound like xenoblade.

ImplyingImplications@lemmy.ca · 17 pts · 2y (1 reply)

The dub is English but voice actors are Australian, Scottish, Jamaican, Ugandan, and Indian.

I'd low-key watch their stuff, if they put love and care into the dubs and don't go into 4Kids level of censorship.

uriel238@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 43 pts · 2y (9 replies)

To the contrary, I think people would be glad for a Bowbell translation, or a Liverpool translation, or a Yorkshire translation.

Also Memphis, Hollywood, Boston, Nashville, NYC.

Memphis and Nashville are like 200 miles apart. Why pick as your two southern cities places where the people sound so similar?

It's genuinely amazing how Americas can be so blazé about what's like half the length of my entire country.

TheGrandNagus@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Same reason Europeans can be so blazé about ages of buildings or casually having a castle near where they live

I actually live a stone's throw from an old Norman castle.

Is she talking about a git request?

lseif@sopuli.xyz · 24 pts · 2y

'git' is british slang for a stupid person, and is what the git software is named after. linus torvalds joked that both linux and git are named after himself.

They invented the English language, and they are the best at making it difficult to understand.
