IS ANYONE ELSE WATCHING THE NET NEUTRALITY DEBATE

For the past couple of years there has been a sub vs dub debate in the anime community. Subbed anime is the original japanese version, meanwhile dubbed is the english translated version, and can sometimes sometimes lead to script changes because of the japanese culture. The number of syllables and words in the phrase or dialogue often change when being translated. The debate first started when the American anime fan community started comparing sub and dub, then choosing which one is superior. It then took a turn for the worse and now if you watch dub you are quote “not a true anime fan.” The question you're probably wondering is why do they choose to compare the two. Well, sub fans say dub is nowhere near as good as the original Japanese voice acting. They have a “better” tone and have more emotion when talking. Since anime is originally Japanese it has accurate translation, including the original language that plays a role in the plot, while being able to listen to the original voice actors. Considering how Japan has many voice actors where they take a full time honors degree that takes four-five years to obtain. The Tokyo school of anime can be an example of where to get this degree. Unlike dub voice actors, sub voice actors can make millions of dollars, though there isn't much of a variety of  dubbed voice actors. There's also the fact of how expensive it is to translate and find new voice actors for an anime. However the biggest complaint of dub anime was that the past dub lip syncing wasn’t the greatest, but today’s modern lip syncing has gotten much better and has less complaints. Japanese people tend to prefer sub because it matches with the Japanese animated style better, and keeps Japanese jokes, food, culture, and so on, unlike when it's translated. On the other hand, dub fans prefer english voice acting so they have more time to look at the animation instead of focusing more on reading the dialogue. There's also the fact that you can multitask while watching dub, whereas if you don’t understand Japanese it’s going to be hard keeping up with the subtitles. In my opinion I also prefer dub for the reason that it is my spoken language and I also enjoyed watching animes where my favourite dub voice actors are involved. If you watch the short video of the sub vs dub, you can clearly see both sides of the voice acting are completely different. If you noticed, the sub version is more serious while the dub is more angry. There are completely two different emotions, comparing the two just doesn't make sense to me. I understand why people are having there own opinion/preference on this debate but I personally think they're just being close minded. I think to resolve this dabet the anime fans community should stop comparing two different languages and appreciate both sides.  

Thank you @roger_broadbent for having me on @idc.2020 yesterday! We talked about ”Why is the range of approaches to dyslexia diagnosis and support so varied across Europe?
