This is the most 2010 comment ever lol

I had the same experience starting Dark. The English dubbed version is horrendous. Gotta go German with subtitles.
That's true with every foreign-language film/show ever. Always.
Except Studio Ghibli movies...the best dubs ever. A lot easier to pull it off with animation though.
My wife cringes at the re-dub of "My Neighbor Totoro."
Really? I thought it was good. Spirited Away dub is fantastic.
She grew up with the Fox dub. I've watched both and agree with her that the Fox version is better, but I can watch either one without issue.
I can understand that. Growing up with something usually leads to attachment. Thats not to say shes wrong. The Fox dub may very well be better.
Spirited Away’s dub is fantastic. Agreed. But shoutout to Kiki — Kirsten Dunst and Phil Hartman knock it out of the park. Two of my favorite performances in the collection.
I wouldn’t call the Disney Totoro my favorite vocal performance by the Fannings, but there’s very few performances in the Ghibli dubs that aren’t downright excellent. The Wind Rises was a little flat though as a whole. But that’s not entirely a criticism of just the vocals.
The only one I find slightly off is Only Yesterday (a more mature film by Miyazaki’s partner, Takahata) that only recently got released in English a few years ago. Great performances in an underrated gem, but Dev Patel does an English accent, whereas Daisy Ridley and everyone else is American. It’s a little jarring and curious of a directing choice.
I have a buddy who literally took notes while he was watching.So I want to give dark another shot, but I think I couldn’t tell almost anyone apart from each other. Any tips?
Your the man tyI have a buddy who literally took notes while he was watching.
If you know how to wade through the garbage, Reddit does a decent job of compiling plot points and characters into one place. I would only read the Post-Episode discussion for whatever episode you just watched if you're feeling overwhelmed. Don't dig around in the main page or you'll risk spoilers. It helps with some character connections that weren't directly spelled out in the plot while reminding you that basically everyone is as lost as you are while watching the show. Some cool little easter eggs are possible too.
Again though, it's about 90% garbage so take it with a grain of salt.
Also, this link will give you a family tree based on which season/episode you are on. It's definitely helpful to see names with faces. THE END IS THE BEGINNING
I can't tolerate dubs either
Also apparently it's my 10 year anniversary on HFboards I got a badge and everything

I just had major surgery on Tuesday to hopefully rid my cancer for good. Just sucks that it was right down the middle of my belly so my stomach muscles are shot for a while.

Wait, what? Cancer?
Get well soon, man.
Good luck, SS. Hope the recovery is quick without complications.Yep, had surgery back in early Feb, found that it went to lymph nodes, so I got surgery to get them removed as well. This should hopefully be the end of all the cancer, basically cutting off any other place it could go.
