He's right though, that's a hosed up pick for Reigen. But your message is true too, you have to separate the art from the artist.

No, you really don't have to. There isn't some law you have to enjoy something made by bad people. 'Separate art from artist' is a terrible mantra that does nothing but enable lovely people. If someone doesn't want to support a product made by bad people, that's just as valid a reason as any other.

I guess I better throw all my poo poo in the trash. I'm not saying they should enable a lovely person to make a living, I'm saying they shouldn't necessarily throw an entire team of people under the bus because one guy is reprehensible. Of course, you can always boycott it as much as you want, nobody can tell you what decision to make regarding your entertainment. Mordaedil fucked around with this message at 13:08 on Dec 12, 2016 |

If you're okay with stuff like this in your dubs, that's fine. There's no need to poo poo on other people who are not okay with it or who feel like making some kind of protest about it, and the exaggerated 'cut off your nose to spite your face' or 'throw all my poo poo in the trash' or 'throw an entire team of people under the bus' rhetoric is just hilarious.

By all means, I am not even sarcastic here. I've worked for the oil industry and the banking industry, so I am already doomed to having gotten more people killed than most people in this thread. Don't be like me. Pick a decent life.

Aye. One thing is going "okay, I can't get anything at all that isn't produced in a morally dubious fashion, so caveman it is. An entirely different thing is "I can get two similar products, one would support known bad person, the other would not. I will not buy the one that supports this bad person, sticking with the other one."

Genocyber posted:I don't remember the specifics, but IIRC he was one of a few e-famous dudes (SuperPsyguy was another one) who were found out to have used their fame to emotionally blackmail and groom teenage girls. Not for nothing, but is there a source for this? I'm trying to find something to corroborate this but the only thing related that I can find is that people weren't happy with Kirbopher's decision to stay mum for a good chunk of the Psy incident despite knowing about what he was doing. Edit: Never mind, I've found stuff to corroborate it. Not gonna link it because I don't think this is the thread for this, but this is certainly a thing.

I didn't read any of this poo poo about the youtube guy you people posted and I don't care, but I think he doesn't make a good Reigen because he's trying a bit too hard to be wacky and that's Not Reigen, and thats the important thing.

I don't even know who he is or what he sounds like, only what people in the thread say. If it's a deal-breaker to you that's fine. If you want a dub, well, at least one is being made. Does anyone have any examples of how bad he'll be for the role?

Trying to watch the first dub episode now. It's not terrible, but everything definitely sounds a bit off. It feels like they're doing too much post processing on the voices to try and add more "comedy" or "creepy" value depending on the situation. --Edit because Mob showed up, dear lord the line delivery for Mob is atrocious. He sounds like a robot half the time. Magnus Condomus fucked around with this message at 23:16 on Dec 18, 2016 |

Yeah a bit, but it feels more forced somehow in the dub. Overdone a bit. It got better as the episode went on, so hopefully the VA was just getting used to things. Having finished the full episode now, I can say I don't hate it. It just feels a bit off somehow. I do love that they still have Raigen delivering the ending "Watching it in real time? Excellent decision" stingers.

What a strong burn you've made, tempered only by it coming six days too late, although that's fitting since the argument you're making fits the ADTRW of several years ago better. I dunno anything about the dude or if he's changed in the intervening time or whatever but if someone doesn't want to support him then that's honestly not a big deal, they can still support good series, Mob Psycho 100 through any way other than the English dub. There is so much goddamned art in the world. You literally cannot consume all media, so you absolutely can afford to be discerning on honestly whatever metric suits you as a person.

Man, I really feel like my statement is being taken an awful lot more liberally than I had intended. Like I really don't have any kind of viewpoint on what media someone processes or how they chose to process it, I just happen to feel like I should be able to like Star Wars even if George Lucas is big rear end in a top hat. But I guess everybody who likes anything that John Travolta has done are wrong for liking it because he's a Scientologist, but I don't think that's a particular productive path to go down. You could certainly boycott his movies, but telling people they are wrong to enjoy something because of an actor is doing a disservice to the rest of the cast. Battlefield Earth doesn't have that excuse of course.

To be fair, there is a difference between someone who is an rear end in a top hat because they say dumb things, and someone who has serially emotionally/sexually abused multiple people including people who were underage. Not every rear end in a top hat is the same. Everyone has got a line, and you gotta decide where you draw yours. Or not, I guess.

Personally I'm not going to say you're wrong to enjoy the dub because Kirbopher is a dumpster fire of a human being. Lots of other people worked on it, probably poured their hearts into it even, and I won't call you wrong to want to support them even in spite of Kirbopher's involvement. But the fact that it's a dealbreaker to some people is also reasonable and understandable, you know? You certainly can separate the art from the artist, but you also don't need to.
