AND SO

[hebbycakes]

My sister Caroro comes back today. I'll be at the university by the time she's at home, I hope she plays with Bowie for a good hour. That cat has missed her like a shark misses the damn ocean. 8|

She probably won't do it, but Mom's going to tell her to walk to meet me. I kinda hope she does, even if I've seen her recently, I think it would be neat for her to at least walk on the path she hasn't seen for a whole year.

I hope to get her into Kuroshitsuji. She'll writhe and struggle at first, but my hope is she'll eventually give it a chance. I think she'd really like it. Ciel reminds me so much of Genjo Sanzo... I think they have similar qualities.

Also, imagining Sebastian with Dan Green's voice... uhuhuhuhu. THOUGH HE HAS TO HAVE A BRIT ACCENT OR ELSE IT JUST WON'T FLY. That's my biggest hope for a dub of Kuro-- THEY HAVE TO HAVE BRIT ACCENTS, EXCEPT FOR THE CHARACTERS THAT ARE OTHERWISE STATED AS NOT BEING BRITS. Like, Bard. Or Lau & Ranmao. I hope they have an actual chinese guy voice Lau. He would not have a japanese accent, he'd have a chinese one, which is much more tonial. Toniel? idk. HAVING TO DO WITH TONE

So yeah, writing a lot because I'm once again waiting around for six hours until my next class. At about noon or 1pm, I'll go for lunch, then return, then walk to Thorneloe and watch some movie by Woody Allen. I'll only ever be able to think of him as Z from Antz. xD It's the only thing I've seen him in! I can't help it! XD

I received an amusing comment to my Renji the Red-Haired Death God video. The commenter had been watching Bleach the other day and apparently their dad started to sing the song my sis and I made. XD That's so awesome.

My legs are such jelly. 8| Mostly because I've not really been exercising at all, but also because I've lost so much weight... So when I rode my bike today, and got off of it, I couldn't feel my legs, and I felt as though I'd topple over at any moment. It was really scary. I'm a bit scared to ride my bike again. o_o

S'yeah, shouldn't be back until like 7pm or 8pm, give or took. YOU'LL ALL SEE ME EVENTUALLY

And another thing- Got accepted at Paradisa with Lau Tao from Kuroshitsuji. Pretty excited to play him, and already having a great thread with the best Ciel I've played with. It's very exciting. I just want to make his reactions believable, since Lau is the very weird one... There's no magic (USUALLY) in Kuroshitsuji (ASIDE FROM DEMON-HAN AND DEATH GOD GUY AND PUPPETS AND SHDFSK), but I can't have Lau just wig out, so I've sort of had him assume he's lost his mind due to opium use... and he's pretty much just accepted it, and anything else that goes on is part of that acceptance. xD It's easier to cope with things, I guess.

OKAY STOPPING MY TL;DR NOW. 8|

If Sebastian were voiced by Dan Green, he could do whatever he wanted? ;x

Seriously, though. No Dan Green for that show, kthx.

Despite his hilarity, he's really not that good of a voice actor, you know? HE WORKED WITH 4KIDS. THAT SHOULD SAY SOMETHING. XD

[kaiba-katt.livejournal.com]

He's an excellent voice actor, what are you talking about? I don't like him because of his hilarity, I like him for his voice acting! And hey, working with 4kids is not a bad thing, I love their company. Just because someone works for 4kids does not make them a bad actor. I really don't understand you.

[lunarwhirl.livejournal.com]

I've seen him in Descendants of Darkness, Weiss Kreuz, and Yu-Gi-Oh, and none of them were very good performances, frankly. He has a pleasing voice, but there's a difference between that and acting. And wow, you didn't notice the "XD" and the capslocking?

(On another note, in the past, 4Kids has been noted for their notorious unfaithfulness to the series they import and their disrespect towards their own fanbase in the past, hence the joking. I don't know how much/whether or not they've changed, however.)

[kaiba-katt.livejournal.com]

I noticed them. I'm tired of the dissing they get. Yes, unfaithfulness and whatever, but you know what? They sometimes don't have a choice. Whatever they do, someone will hate them. But it doesn't change the fact that lots of people will watch what they have to offer because not everyone goes to watch the original japanese version. You can't please everyone.

I have watched all of the ones you've listed, and frankly, I disagree. But that's no surprise. No, he's not Miki Shinichiro, he's not Koyasu Takehito, he's not Shunsuke Whinysuck, but he CAN'T be them. He had to bring something else to their roles because trying to be another voice actor is pointless. DoD didn't have a great script because they basically had the actors write the lines themselves. I think it was pretty amazing what he did with ADLIBBING. I don't just go "kyaaa dan green's voice is so amazinguuuu~~" I actually appreciate good voice work. I may have said "Oh Sebastian would sound great with Dan Green's voice" because yes, I do like his voice, but that's not the only thing I'm thinking about. I'm thinking about what sort of acting and work he'd put into the character.

4kids is getting sued and might be going bankrupt. They can't please anyone, except for the few people that actually understand why they do the things they do. People who go "BAWWWW SERIES YOU RUINED" are not helping. If you don't like the dub, don't watch it. Simple as that.

foot in mouth sometimes is all I ask. v_v

[lunarwhirl.livejournal.com]

Then we can agree to disagree and leave it at that. Frankly, I don't like 4Kids, but I don't think they're the devil either. And I haven't seen the japanese version of DoD, and I don't give a fuck that Dan Green isn't this or that. I don't care about the sub vs dub debates. I just happen to dislike his voice acting, although I think he's pretty cool as a person.

[kaiba-katt.livejournal.com]

Just next time, if I'm talking about LIKING a certain voice actor and his work, saying "He's just not that great a voice actor, y'know?" is REALLY NOT the best way to tell me your thoughts. If I knew, why would I be saying I love his work?

[lunarwhirl.livejournal.com]

Next time, tell me politely rather than blowing up. Chances are that I don't intend to do it. Disagreeing with you != disliking you or disrespecting your opinion.
