When will they make audiobook manga so the sub vs dub and manga vs anime communities can get into a 1v1v1v1 culture war

I thought Genius Prince improved as well, and seemed more like an actual episode rather than an X.5 without the recap. My guess is The hidden arms caches are meant to be discovered and for the 3 empire fractions to THINK that the prince and princess are colluding. That's why the princess came with retainers from the 3 factions, so they can discover the weapons build up and report back. Her plan is exactly what she said it was, except she needs needs to force Wein's hand for him to accept, just like he suggested she should.

That's my read as well. It fits that he'd be the one to accidentally screw himself over with his own idea. I also noticed that the guy aggressively courting her just happens to be from his other neighbouring country. So they'll probably also take this badly and escalate things out of Weins control.

That's because people were using the closed captions based on the dub rather than the actual subtitles.

No no, it was specifically those too. It was one of the kick-offs of "man, Netflix doesn't pay for good translations, like, ever" despite stuff like Squid Game being the best-performing show on the platform of all time.

The translation for Aggretsuko was pretty good, if I remember correctly

Everything else though, pbbltbltblt (The Komi-san translation was good but the subtitles were a joke, for a show with such a heavy amount of signs)

I sort of doubt they expected that'd be the case when they translated it, to be fair.

Checked out Fantasy Bishoujo, it was actually really fun! I kind of assumed it was gona be some generic titty Isekai from the blurb and the the tags but it's actually a romcom between the two main characters and actually that rules

Someone else pointed out in this thread (and I agree with them) that one of the refreshing things about it is that the show actually has time to breathe. The show knows its strength is the interplay between the characters and the comedy that emerges from them and so it's not rushing to make things happen.

the original manga is by a husband/wife artist/writer team which probably goes some distance to explaining the actual bits of romantic chemistry

both the wife and husband have done art for fate/grand order incidentally. the husband (ikezawa) did the art for saito hajime in it and the wife (tsurusaki) did a couple of the manga.

Fear not. Legends say that in our darkest days, when every anime streaming site buckles and implodes in a poof of unprofitability to the isekai floods, and all throughout the land ring the censorious laughs heralding the return of 4Kids-style dubbings, the anime community will be saved by those they once turned their backs on. The rugged, intrepid soldiers who kept the torch alight betwixt the golden days and the fansubbing winter. Know thy banners well, my child, for one day the knights of the Pretty Cure fandom shall pour forth, from the lost grail of dedication, fansubs of fine quality for ye.
