So Sony & Crunchyroll decided to go texas route for Voice casting the English voice selected via Cronyism in selection of voice actors
For producing English dubs.....!!!! For their main hard hitting shows!! All because they don't want to produce dubs under union contract / all because voice actors in texas are cheaper than California ( where dubs are of high quality quality) Mann!!! The English dubs produced at texas are so uncomfortable and cringe // their so called pro American localisation / average voice acting quality / All because of some higher ups at Funimation that are now in crunchyroll and well known old Funimation extremist voice actors!!! |

Reba Buhr, the English actress for Myne in Ascendance of a Bookworm said she isn’t working for Crunchyroll anymore due to wages. As well as Joe Zieja who voices Otto, said he is no longer working on anime anymore since 2020 due to wages. This season is probably gonna see numerous recasts, unfortunately, unless Crunchyroll will listen to the actors and raise wages.

So basically dubbing all the major shows, pretty much, meaning we're more or less back to how it used to be between Crunchyroll and Funimation.
I would think it would be easier to mange this output by continuing to outsource to other studios, which seemed to work really well, unless they expect that returning to record in the studio will mean they can better handle it and get the dubs out faster like they are already with Spy x Family. But using other studios definitely lent to some nice variety and great dubs. I'm curious what this means for LA VA's or VA's from anywhere other than Texas if they refrain from remote recording moving forward. I mean, I would assume Shield Hero and any sequel to a CR show will still be an LA dub if only because the majority of the cast are LA VA's. Could just be the case where an LA VA gets treated like a guest or special appearance in a Funi dub. I'm also glad to see them finally dubbing new Ancient Magus Bride content. Now if they could just go back to whatever's left undubbed...and the Tanya movie, too, I think?
I don't see how LA is any more guilty of that then Texas, especially when there were some creative castings for CR's LA shows, but ultimately I'm sure they'll cast who they feel is right for the parts.
That sucks. Especially since we're talking about the lead characters' VA. Last edited by MFrontier on Mon Apr 11, 2022 4:11 pm; edited 1 time in total |

I never said they were, but it's always more interesting seeing a mix of talents and names you don't expect to pop up. One of the advantages of remote recording. |

I would say the same for the past few CR seasonal dubs! Hopefully that continues moving forward. |

And want about Japanese seiyuu ? in Japan, they also use the same seiyuu over and over. like this season Hanakana appear on Love after world domination. |

I think Hanazawa is in three shows this season (Aharen-san, Shield Hero, and Love after World Domination). |

Morgan Lea said that Sound Cadence, Kocha Sound, and others can still be hired and still use remote recording. |

So all you posters who want to save the overworked, starving, and homeless voice actors ( maybe even one step away from a life of crime), you guy willing to pay higher fees!
I personally wouldn't mind paying more; I feel $12.00 to $15.00 a month would be about right. Especially, if they continued to dub this many shows that they just announced. Although, they sure better fix that nasty problem I have when selecting an episode from watchlist! (watching those orange dots going around and around with no show ever streaming!) Also, please adapt Funimation player; its way better! ( it actually mimics Netflix's player and, thus, easier to move back and forth in. |

Very good news for me. Now I just wonder when Superstar will get dubbed. Think they'll do both seasons back to back? I'm hoping for the first season they'll drop all the dubbed episodes at once. |

While I obviously can watch them on my way bus ride(s) to/from work on my phone, would be nice if all of the anime that I am watching this season streamed before I had to leave for work. That way it would be easier for me to watched a subbed version in/on tab and the Eng. version in/on another.
