I've read this before somewhere. The odd thing is though, I think Might Guy looks more like Bruce Lee than Rock Lee does.

Slightly off topic, but I did think it funny that they turned Capain Marvel into Disney princess and they the people she is a princess of literally communicate by singing.

Update

https://www.crunchyroll.com/news/announcements/2024/4/23/konosuba-season-3-anime-english-dub-cast-crew-release-date

 Excellent, thanks.

I was looking forward to Konosuba season 3, but it seems that Crunchyroll isn't releasing a dubbed version?

I think I can. I do see scenes in anime and immediately think "that's been done via CGI". I can't be sure if there is CGI out there that I have mistakenly thought was hand drawn though.

Some of my favorites:

Order of the Stick: https://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0001.html

The Whiteboard: https://www.the-whiteboard.com/autowb001.html  (Note that the style changes a few comics in).

Kusuriya no Hitorigoto (The Apothecary Diaries)

One of the best shows of this season so far.

 

 

 I've been watching it having read the first few manga volumes. That image you used isn't very indicitve though - it makes it look like Maomao is some kind martial artist walking into the fight of her life.

Yesterday evening I rewatched the Yuru Camp Movie, which was excellent those girls certainly enjoy their camping, cooking and hot springs! I was also interesting to see them creating a camp site rather than visiting one.  I know I've said this before, but I really like it when a movie of a series continues the story rather than does a rehash of the TV series, that always seem to me to be a waste of good a movie production budget.

 I just finished season 1 of Yuru camp on Crunchyroll. I was disappointed to see they don't have an English dub for season 2.

I tried a Google search. Dragonball itself has never featured Christmas, but Dr Slump has and the two are officially set in the same reality so technically yes.

I don't know, I never watched any of it.  I saw a couple of short clips on YouTube and that was enough to convince me that I didn't want to see any of it. 

 I think I saw a small clip of the dubbed version once. I stayed well clear of it though as it sounded like a travesty. The original is a classic though.

Wait, did you just watch the AMERICAN version?

 No, I watched the subtitled version.

Like which ones?

 

 Just about all of them. The watery card IIRC does try it's hard at drowning someone IIRC. The jump card makes a really bad attempt at attacking Sakura. Other that that I can't think of any that made a serious attempt.

Which ones don't do it? Card Captor Sakura has a whole card deck full of evil demons who tried to kill people on a regular basis.

 You might want to rewatch that series. I think you might be miscounting or misremembering the number of cards with homicidal tendencies.

I've been to Japan a few times and learned very little about religion and mythology there. Most of what I've learned is from anime, manga and video games. The Naruto series is interesting as quite a few of the special powers refer to their their gods or mythologies.

 I'm in Australia so that might be why it's not on Crunchyroll for me. Thanks.

 Many years ago I used to buy the dubbed Sgt. Frog anime one DVD. Then they stopped producing dubs - I think it might have been a licensing issue perhaps. I'm not sure if they ever resumed producing them. Does anyone know one way or another? Also, is there any streaming service that has them? Wikipedia says Crunchyroll but I can't find it on their site.

Neon Genesis Evangelion

It is not a good news bible, or is it a new beginning. It ends horribly for everyone.

 I'm not sure I'd agree. The first NGE ended so vaguely it's hard to be sure what happened from my recollection.

 The more recent remake did have a lot of devastation but things were looking up in the end.

Well, there is Ariel from "Is this a zombie?". She isn't technically middle age as she is suspected to be over 100 years old. But I'd guessing magical girls aren't supposed to age past being a teenager. To some extent you could also include Sakura from Cardcaptor Sakura - or more specifically her cameo appearances in XXXHolic/Tsubasa: Reservior Chronicle as she is old enough to have had children by that point.

luv me some Tenchi Muyo

 I've been trying to watch the new GXP series. It's hard going - much like the later seasons of Tenchi Muyo. The main problem being it includes people/events from the novels and I keep having trouble following who/what they are talking about.

 Anyway, my vote if for Mari Tomita from Air Gear. Despite being constantly being paranoid that men are going to molest her, she has a tendency to act very erotically.

Sounds a bit like Isekai Transporter: https://mangakakalot.com/read-dp8xn158504983443

Lunch (or is it supposed to be Launch?) from Dragon Ball

 I think it's supposed to be Lunch. A lot of the characters in Dragon Ball have a food based naming scheme.

I'm going to say Momoka and Tamama from Sgt. Frog. Both vary between innocent and polite to being homidical - generally it's a matter of having their rage button pushed though.

Does anyone know how many episodes Naruto went for if you cut out all of the filler episodes?

Sometimes dubs are even better... 

 

 

 

 

 I know two decades ago that political correctness wasn't nearly as prevelant as it is today. But how the [insert expletive here] did that dub ever get approved?

I am one of the many people who attempt to binge watch One Piece and end up quitting by episode 30 right here.

But aside from that, just started watching Monster, pretty fucking good to be honest.

 I tried starting to watch One Piece on Crunchyroll (lord knows how long it would take to catch up). For some reason it kept changing my language preference to Spanish so I gave up.
