The dub voices were certainly much better than you'd think from the trailers, but some lines still just came across as awkward at times. A Saber vs Rider fight would've been pretty neat, but it really wouldn't have fit in the story. The interviews really are great though. The season 2 blu rays sound like they'll be much better in terms of added content. I'm curious if they'll have any new interviews and details about planning for Heaven's Feel as well.

Just wondering are the new scenes dubbed or only part of the subbed versions of the episodes? I noticed they weren't on the dubbed episodes on Netflix. |

They're just on the blu-rays. Netflix only has the broadcast version. |

But are they dubbed or subbed only on the Blu-Ray? |

They're probably both. I don't see any reason why they would have some parts be sub only. |

and its a definitely change from the 2006 dub version. while the newer voices are better,especially when it came to changing VA for shiro and kotomine, they definitely shouldnt have changed archer's VA.
unfortunately all the routes are like that,and they had to keep the script faithful towards the VN.otherwise those type moon fanatics would gripe like there's nobody's business. |

Haha don't worry, Liam O'Brien's amazing work as Archer didn't go unnoticed by Kaiji Tang, very much the opposite actually. http://kaijitang.tumblr.com/post/127150646240/the-tale-of-two-archers-heroic-bad-ass-vs-broken I'm loving Kaiji Tang's Archer a lot, and I'm so badly looking forward to the second half of this dub. |

In light of how the reviewer has already written the review of the first season and saw the whole series before the blu-ray review, I'm a bit sad that there weren't really any new observations made or aspects remarked upon regarding the core content, aside from the blu-ray additions. Then again, I can see how one's thoughts on the first half might not be any different on a re-watch, and a review of the first season alone, months separated from a review of season two, should only stick to being about the first season.
The second half, though, may benefit more via a re-watch, and be susceptible to newer observations. Or at least, I hope so for the sake of others' enjoyment and further validation of my own feelings, knowing how Nick (who might be the reviewer of the 2nd BD?) among others have already expressed dislike for the second season while it streamed, hah. When that season is viewed in closer proximity with the 1st season, or just has its episodes watched closer together to smooth out some ever-present pacing issues, I feel it'll work more cohesively.
I actually think I like the core content better in this half than the first half-- it feels a lot more focused to me and really gets into the meaty stuff that distinguishes it as a story in Fate/stay night. I even appreciated several aspects more than I did the first time around while reading the VN! So no, many most certainly don't think that way about the 2nd season. @Stelman257 Hey, thanks for pointing that link out-- I was thinking of linking that when I finally got around to making my first post in the thread since the updated review, but you beat me to it. It makes me look forward to hearing more of Kaiji Tang; even if I may not completely warm up to his performance, at least I very much know his heart is in the right place. (And he seems to really "get" Archer's character at that; it's awesome to see actors really get into and talk about their roles.) |
