I was pretty lucky this half of the year to cover anime with pretty good dubs, except a couple. I tried to get a variety of them and succeeded beautifully. Now if only I can keep that up for the rest of the year.
Man, that Zeta Gundam dub is rough. But a few weeks ago, I saw people defend it on the Gundam subreddit. I don’t really understand how anyone could find it good. It’s so stiff-sounding and disinterested.
If I had to decide which is worse, underacting (Zeta Gundam) or overacting (Nadesico), I guess I’d choose overacting, because at least it sounds like actors are interested in the material. Nadesico‘s dub still sucks, but it sucks less than Zeta Gundam‘s.
