Hear it from me, a professed hater of the Funimation dub and Anthony Kimm's cut and dry subs: the new Shin Godzilla dub by NYAV Post is good.
When I heard Ping Wu again early on, my brain lit up and I was transported back to a time when G2K's dub felt important to me because of the all AAPI folks.

yeah did you ever consider that the significant losses in other demographics (Blacks, Latinos, AAPI, etc) would have more than made up the deficit left by white people, whom you shouldn't be depending on in the first place? or are we just ignoring that part?

You might be surprised to learn the beautiful, ethereal look of Disney's Bambi came from the vision of one man: Tyrus Wong, a Chinese-born artist whose name appeared in the credits simply as a “background artist.” #bambi #disney #tyruswong #asianamerican #aapi
How a Chinese Immigrant Shaped the Look of One of Disney’s Most Iconic Films
Disney’s 1942 classic Bambi defined an entire generation, and after years of re-releases on home video, in theatres and on streaming, you probably have no problem picturing its dreamy forest filled with soft pastels, drifting mist, and sunlight melting through trees that look more like a painting than a cartoon. You might be surprised to learn this beautiful, ethereal look came from the vision of one man: Tyrus Wong, a Chinese-born artist whose name appeared in the credits simply as a...

today is Veterans’ Day. I am taking a moment to remember all the Black veterans, women veterans, queer & trans veterans, veterans of color, AAPI veterans, and every veteran, present and past, that has served for a country that chooses to not love them back.

Literally over a dozen stories that cite the Stop AAPI hate self-reported data. Do a search. Yet no skeptical questions from NPR reporters about the need for self-reporting of hate. Not one.

John Cho on Finding Himself as an Asian American Artist
Before the fame, before Harold & Kumar and Searching , John Cho was just a college student trying to find his place in the world. In a recent interview about that time in his life, he shares that transferring to UC Berkeley was “the first independent, proactive thing that I did for myself,” a decision that marked a turning point for him. Once there, he suddenly felt a freedom he hadn’t known before. Surrounded by students from all walks of life, he realized he could explore who he was...

Yeahh, it's rough but I have seen a lot of perspectives from AAPI folks and it's cool to know that in the last 5-10 years there has been a reclaiming of the aesthetic. Like amped up kitschy versions of their own heritage as a place of belonging in the pinup and vintage scene which can be very white.
