Subs vs Dubs Bonus Video [Patreon Unlock]
Last year I made a Patreon exclusive bonus video for the main Subs vs. Dubs video, diving a little deeper into a slightly more convoluted, yet nonetheless very interesting example of localization in Yu Yu Hakusho. Now that a year has gone by and I've slimmed down my Patreon, I'm releasing it for everyone else to see. As I say at the beginning, I highly recommend watching the original Subs vs. Dubs video first if you haven't already seen it or it's been a while for you so that this video makes more sense.

    Watching this video now makes me wonder where you're at by 2024? After so much got worse 2020 and now that we're finding out so much about the corruption, about the money and about devastatingly evil habits in governments and in Hollywood and how deep the corruption went from the military industrial complex to the medical and covid manipulations devastating inflation and infrastructure instability, rampant migrational influx. It would seem that life has taught us a great deal about how bad things can truly get and continue to even get worse.

    egotism ruins one's life. shinji looks humble but in reality he is not. he never did act against his feelings, he never take initiative to betray himself. that passivity and prolonged dream can not last forever. and in this case it's end with a catastrophe for humanity and metanarratively with suicide.

    I had a similar experience with this show. I was a freshman in high school and where I’m at my school bus ride was almost 2 hours long and I got on the bus at 4:00am. I was alone for the majority of the ride so I just watched a bunch of different anime on my phone. I saw this one and felt so disappointed by the end (I didn’t know what ovas where at the time cause I was fresh to anime having learned about it less than a year before that. I also felt that there was a better show in there and I’d love to see it remade someday

    Good video but disagree with the conclusion. I hook people on Ysubasa via xxxHolic and Card Capture Sakura. I have been deep in the CLAMP fandom for over a decade. Yes the anime kinda sucks because you can't really write an epic high fantasy world traveling tragedy for children. I implore anyone who took interest to explore the manga alongside the xxxHolic manga the story is good and deserves justice better than the NHK anime could ever do it. The saving grace of the show is one of the best soundtracks made by Yuki Kajiura and this is saying a lot because she is already one of the best composers in my humble opinion.

  • @janeyrevanescence12

    As a writer and woman myself, I think that making Nora a symbol for Victor, rather than a fleshed out character was the better choice. Not just because of the limitations placed on the production team (time, money, etc) but because she (and by extension, Victor) become a mirror to the audience. In order to see ourselves in Victor, we must first see our loved ones in Nora. As shown in his second outing, Nora is able to bring out the best qualities in Victor. Who brings out the best in us? It could be our wives, our husbands, our children, our friends, our parents, etc. Someone who means more to us than life itself, essentially. It’s really hard to get that same effect in a 22 minute episode where the majority of the focus is on other characters. It would make Nora feel less like a real person and more like a shoehorn.

    The thing is that animation studios usualy change whole concepts of a great already manga or light novel masterpiece. the same thing happen with Ken Akamatsu's works, both Negima! Magister Negi Magi and UQ-Holder. Personaly, I have read the manga Tsubasa Chronicles and it's soo good. I have all the volumes.

    My only critique is that if we, me and anyone reading this, both agree that if something is true it has to work in all circumstances. Then i would like to propose those who think murder is ok. I find it interesting that in every culture, society, people group, etc. that all of them believe at least that killing someone from their culture, society, people group, etc. is wrong. What do we do with that because we see that everyone has this weird built in force that when we actually start to think about them instead of us and how they have their own thoughts and reasons for doing things just like how we do, otherwise knows as sympathy, our brain makes us then empathize with others rather than us just thinking of people from this meta consciousness perspective as just being an idea of a person or a person we cannot humanize with.

    Spoiler alert, after 4.0s release the univeres are all canon, equally, with kaworu being able to project is memories as the soul of adam. all eva universes can be sorted into universes with eva vs without eva and these can be arranged like madoka magica. but essentially every universe happened with them happening one after the other with kaworu and maybe rei being entities that experience this specific universe convergence where the same events are occuring a lot because the multiverse is centering around the pilots evas and angels. For example, shinji ikari raising project the manga is a post 4.0 because there are no evas and the angels are computer viruses, but raising rei anaymi project for the nintendo DS is a pre 4.0 universe because it has evas.

    Hey Select Screen, and to anyone who reads this, i just wanted to stop by and say one thing; God loves you all very much! He is real, so is Heaven and hell. God created us to worship Him and fellowship with Him, but unfortunately the Bible teaches that all humans are sinners, and that no one is good in His sight. We can't earn salvation or His favor, but His only Son Jesus Christ did for us! He died in our place on a cross and rose again, so we don't have to go to hell. If we repent of our sins, surrender our lives to Him, we can be forgiven and made forever righteous in His eyes! I hope this helps, God bless you all!

    So when I started the UC timeline of Gundam last week I am currently watching in its chronological order starting with MSG: The Orign and following with the 0079 Movie Trilogy which in my opinion much better and stuck to the main plot. I just don't have to sit through monster/villains of the week fillers. When I get to Zeta then I will watch the series to its fullest because I heard the movies are not good and non-canon ending. Gundam ZZ to me is like the Spaceballs of the Gundam UC timeline with the slapstick comedy. I just might skip it and go straight Char's Counterattack movie afterwards. When it comes to my Gundam series especially the UC stories to be dark, gritty and a grounded military drama. I just have to go to Gundam Wiki to read the plot on ZZ..... Gundam F91 Movie continue the story in the manga or light novels. The oldest Gundam pilots protagonist in the Universal Century timeline is Shiro Amada(20) from The 08th MS Team and Stardust Memory Kou Uraki(19)....... This is what I am following! Mobile Suit Gundam UC Timeline ---------------------------------------------------------- ◇ MSG: The Orgin OVA ◇MSG (Movie Trilogy) ◇Cucuruz Doan's Island (Movie) ◇The 08th MS Team ◇ War in the Pocket ◇Thunderbolt (Movies) ◇Stardust Memory ◇Zeta Gundam & ZZ ◇ Char's Counterattack (Movie) ◇MSG:Unicorn OVA ◇Gundam Narrative (Movie) ◇Hathaway (Movie) ◇Gundam F91 (Movie) ◇ Victory Gundam

  • @fakesmile172
    @fakesmile172 3 місяці тому

    I love F91, it's really the only self-contained movie in the series except the compilation movies of 0083 and 08th MS Team. However, I think part of my enjoyment came from having watched all the previous entries in the series. F91 feels like the original series, Zeta, ZZ, and maybe Char's Counterattack mixed together, and watching those series first helps you "fill in the gaps" as it were, since F91 can be a bit confusing. In other words, watching those previous series will introduce you to tropes and ideas that F91 reuses and helps to understand the movie better. Heck, Seabook is like Amuro, Kamille, and Judeau rolled into one. It's a rewarding experience. Oh, F91 isn't a 13 episodes series squished into a 2 hour movie, it's a ~50 episode series squished into a 2 hour movie... Hathaway is cool, but I'm honestly more excited for what comes after with the UC next 100 project. I think After War Gundam X is also a good recommendation, at least for anyone that likes 90s adventure anime.

There is no evidence for soul! and there is no evidence for afterlife! You have to prove something like that first before you can say that! Evolution and origin of life! You really think god made a man in sand blew on it and there's adam grab a rib from adam and there you have eva! That's how it went? because that's nonsense You never looked up origin of life! You never looked up evolution! Even if they don't know everything yet! they try to explain! and prove things! which isn't easy! is better than nothing! And claim things without evidence or explanation! that's the easiest thing to do, but that doesn't make it true! Origin of life talk about blocks of life! who by circumstances! originated! Step by step! small changes over time! And small mutation over time! And that counts for evolution too! they don't claim that something came out of nothing! The bible does that without explanation! without evidence! Debate real and truth! There is no good or bad is illusion! There are no winners! there are no losers! everything that is made! is fake! made truth is not truth! Is no more than I say everything people think! or made! is fake and cannot be real or truth!

Afterward, in college got remembered about the show and I tried to search for the rest of the show then found OVAs. Now in my working hours, again remembered about the show. Tiring to find the shows ending but came across your video to know there is no ending, making me mixed emotional. However, this show lives in my childhood memory.
