The only way the industry changes is if there is solidarity action from those working in it *and* loud vocal opposition from those consuming it

Companies have run bare bones ships, exhausting workers, making bumper profit from dubbing. Now, they want to cut the few left loose.

Don't let them
While this article goes very rightly into the disrespect actors have faced in dubbing, underneath that is an entire ecosystem of abused and rushed freelancers doing the timecoding, adapting, directing, engineering, and mixing who Amazon also attempted to cut.

Amazon's AI anime dubbing fiasco reminds us that voice actors are severely undervalued
Amazon recently rolled out bad AI-generated dubs for several anime on Prime Video, demonstrating yet again that voice actors are undervalued.

So in case you didn’t see this on the other site, they actually made a 3D model replica of a Phantasia scene at the Tales 30th anniversary museum.

They didn’t do this for the other games exhibited currently.

Octopath Traveler 0 changes scenery from a mobile world to a single player one. It's not a perfect move, but overall fans of the series have another impressive title in this classic-styled series. Adventure, and town building, awaits! ⛰️

Names are probably among the most challenging things to localize. Although sometimes... They can be a lot of fun to work with 🎭

In Once Upon a Puppet, most characters have tree names that pair as ordinary names in English. Let's see how we adapted them into Spanish 👇 🪵

Old reupload. I appreciate the warm colors and the not-so-bright palette of this.

I should get back on track in making .Hack// fanart...

2014 - started studying Japanese with a private tutor
2015 - passed N5 in summer, entered University and continued studying Japanese there
2017 - passed N3

...and then I never progressed further.
I'm curious what others' JLPT journey was.

I'll start:

2016 - started studying Japanese at uni
2019 - passed N2
2021 - failed N1
2024 - passed N1

It's a small victory, and they still need to take down AI dub for LATAM Spanish, but it feels BIG.

They are just testing the waters, and they will try again and again unless we —the users, the people who are actually giving them the fucking money— stand our ground.
BANANA FISH no longer has an English dub on Amazon

Now that's Winter, I'm thinking about NEWSLETTER. But I haven't written anything for one yet...

Right now, my energy is going towards preparing Chapter 5 for localization. The translation process begins next week. We have extracted all the English text and we are now annotating it.
