Chronically unemployed Twitch streamer with a broken body and ten tons of snark. Inching towards radical leftism. Red Sox, Bruins, Patriots, Notre Dame football, and Lakers sports chatter. Plus cartoons and maybe even YouTube videos.

Also if youre screaming about CR and their subtitles but are silent on Amazon *dubbing an entire show* with AI then its clear you only cared because it effects your subs and not the entire anime localization sphere. A company with more money than god should not be dubbing using AI

I started closed captions editing with a company called CaptionMax. It was full time, overnight hours, heavy workload.
A few years ago, CaptionMax was bought and absorbed by 3Play Media. And guess what! Today, they use AI in their workflow, because of course they do.

Herbstreit openly caping for Patullo and Al scoffing at the Eagles fans who are rightfully pissed is a pretty bad look for a broadcast team that's already the object of disdain.

Before I hop back onto some captioning work later, I'm continuing my ongoing livestream of Final Fantasy III (Famicom). I'm at about the midpoint of the game, moving at a pretty decent pace. Feel free to join me an hour from now, at 12:00 Noon PST. Link coming in the next post at that time.

I made a mod that replaces cliffracers with Thomas the Tank Engine. I am incapable of learning lessons whenever it involves corporations, because I fundamentally do not view toy company CEOs or media CEOs as people.

Anyway, I literally am short rent, due in six days, because the anime workflow I once had in spades has run dry thanks to nonsense like this.
If you're a content creator who could use captions for a video, please consider commissioning me. 113 minutes of video by next Thursday could make it happen.

This shit is why I'm getting less and less work on anime and having to scramble to ask around with YouTubers for help letting me do their CCs just to pay my damn rent. There's enough anime to caption out there that I should not be fucking struggling.
After publishing this article, I've heard from many that CR seems to be using AI to produce dub CCs. Now, thanks to a slip-up CR had with episode 6 dub of The Banished Court Magician, we can say that with 100% certainty: Crunchyroll is using the AI service Ollang.com for its dub closed captions!

With the Fall 2025 anime season, Crunchyroll demonstrates zero respect for anime as a medium as the presentation quality of its subtitles reach an all-time low.
