Most of the time I find the dubs of shows to be decent, but for me personally, I'm not a big fan of the dub. Outside of Yugiri, Lily and Kotaro, I'm not a fan of the dub voices for Sakura, Saki, Ai and Junko. There was also a line of dialogue changed in the dub for episode 4 of Revenge that kinda irritated me, but it's mostly related for shipping reasons (Funimation did something similar with Kobayashi's Dragon Maid)

I wish the writers would let Sakura and Saki get together like they're playing with the idea of Ai and Junko - Kotaro's a loving douchebag, is ten years older than Sakura, and doesn't deserve her even if she were his age.

All right, I know there isn't much to discuss right now, but there's been something that's bothering me: is it problematic if I ship Ai and Junko together? I'm only asking because Ai is 16 while Junko is 19

Who cares, don’t be weird. Ship what you like. Psychos on twitter and tumblr will freak out regardless because they’ve been poisoned by anti-feminist homophobes.

I'm assuming you're just being sarcastic and that it's fine for me to ship them still?

I just don't want to be judged as creepy by some people because of their age difference. I'm not worried about SA, but other places like reddit

I don't think reddit is very accurate with their judgments as to who is creepy

You're creepy because you're shipping two people who are dead, not just because one is under 18.

This is sarcasm in case thats not clear. No one who matters is going to give a poo poo.

So since it's been over a year since Revenge aired, I've re-evaluated my opinion on it: it's kind of disappointing.

I mean don't get me wrong, the songs are still excellent and the animation was improved from the first season, but part of the reason I found it disappointing was the surprising lack of interaction between the main group. Most of the episodes of Revenge tended to involve one of the girls interacting with someone outside the main group (Saki and White Ryu, Lily and Light, Sakura and Maimai, Yugiri and Kichi/Itou), and a lot of these new characters aren't nearly as interesting as anyone in Franchouchou.

Not only that, but by focusing on these new characters, they took away a lot of time from continuing to develop the relationships between the members of the group. Yugiri and Lily have an adorable mother-daughter relationship, but outside of a few lines between the two, the show doesn't ever seem to want to dedicate an episode focusing on their relationship. Ai and Junko also have the same problem, since despite the show and promotional materials depicting the two as close friends, for some reason the writers seem extremely hesitant on even having them have a back-and-forth conversation outside their focus episodes and that one time they talked about idols dating.

Like, there's still stories they could have made that would have been so much more interesting than "Franchouchou member bonds with someone outside the main group". What about an episode where Sakura or Ai encounters their parents, or an episode that deals with the fact that all of Junko's loved ones are likely either now elderly and have potentially forgotten her, or are now dead. Or how about actually focusing on Yugiri's past and not dedicating a large part of it to a new character that's not nearly as interesting as her.

Anyways, enough of my complaining

There's another "The Best" album coming out on 9/28 that has all the songs in Revenge, plus the curry song and three new songs made for the album. Additionally, there holding three 3D virtual concerts on 7/30, 8/27 and 9/24 introducing the new songs
