I was planning on watching both the sub and the dub for Spy x Family, but after watching about half of E1 for the dub I'll just be sticking with the sub for this one because that was a pretty shitty dub, IMO. You'd think with as popular as the anime was projected to be they would have put more effort into it, but I guess not. Oh, well, at least the sub is great.

@DprvdDgnrt (or anyone else who might know): what happened to Kanna's voice in the dub for S2 of Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid? I read that it was Jad Saxton for both seasons, but it sounds very different from S1. Almost like the VA is holding their nose when they are doing the voice or something.

Yeah I noticed especially because I played episode 1 the other day when we were talking about the show …. But no not really sure why, how many episodes have you watched? Maybe it’s just towards the start I’d have to look again at other episodes at this point |

Just finished the episode where the oppai loli started working at the candy (or whatever) store. Her meeting the owner's grandson was very amusing and having the dragon girls interact with a male character that wasn't gay or prepubescent was a nice change of pace. |

This is a perfect example of the older anime that I'm looking for. It's something that is definitely worth watching, but is old enough that it never gets discussed anymore.

Finally catching up on anime. Gotta say, Spy x Family is the best of the new season.
Was down for a few days replaying Witcher 3 in hopes of doing a new game + when the ps5 upgrade comes out. If it does  |

W/O using magic you shouldn't be able to just crouch down a couple of yards in front of someone looking right at you and disappear regardless of how stealthy you are. And I wouldn't call it a "great fault," but I really wish they included Oblivion's ability to create spells. That was a LOT of fun. |

I must admit, the longer it went on, the more serious my sense of anxiety became. Definitely a bold move regarding the plot twist, but I think they pulled it off quite well in the end. I can't imagine what it was like waiting for a new episode to drop each week! The convoluted timeline was definitely an issue, though. I didn't know chronological order was so important going into it, so I may need to watch it again in the correct order, just to see how much it changes things. Overall, definitely worth adding to my favorites list. |

If it wasn’t for Kobayashi herself Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid could have found it’s way into my yearly rewatch rotation. As it is though it was entertaining enough to enjoy once, but not good enough I’d ever want to rewatch it. Unless maybe someone releases a version with Kobayashi cut out.

I've only seen episode 1, but found it thoroughly meh. I found myself clicking away and listening to it in the background, which isn't something I normally do on a first watch.
I think it may be because there's no 'why' in the plot. The stated reasons for them to be together or for her actions just don't seem to be plausible. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Hunter-Killer: If it wasn’t for Kobayashi herself Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid could have found it’s way into my yearly rewatch rotation. As it is though it was entertaining enough to enjoy once, but not good enough I’d ever want to rewatch it. Unless maybe someone releases a version with Kobayashi cut out. I’m pretty surprised by this take Don’t get me wrong she isn’t my favorite character in the show but I think having her there for Tohru and the other Dragons to interact with worked pretty well especially since so many shows like this would have just put in bland male protagonist #863 in her place, to be fair she is pretty bland herself but a lot of the really whiny ones are a lot more annoying then Kobyashi was for me at least |

Not to watch a boring, bland, homely, androgynous woman be a boring AF office drone. She was so off-putting it resulted in pretty much every scene Tohru fawned all over Kobayashi to cause me to become bewildered as to what truly caused Tohru to very, very quickly fall madly in love with her and why she remained so. It kinda reminded me of No Game No Life when Sora used the Pledges to make Stephanie fall in love with him right after they met only Kobayashi didn’t use any magic. |

Okay that makes a lot of of sense, the difference for me is I just didn’t find her to be actively off putting I really enjoyed Monster Musune and To Love Ru for the same reasons as Dragon maid and I’ll take Kobyashi over their leads anyday of the week Yuki from To Love Ru is cringe as fuck at least Kobyashi can accidentally come in contact with one of the girls breasts without sperging out and having a stroke and I literally can’t remember anything what so ever about the character from monster musune maybe I liked him? Maybe he was annoying I genuinely can’t remember for the life of me but I feel like years later if someone asked my about dragon maid I could easily describe Kobyashi |

I watched that a while ago and TBH I barely remember it. The MC from Monster Musune was MUCH, MUCH better than Kobayashi, IMO. Not only was he significantly less annoying, but it made more sense why the monster girls liked him than it did why Tohru was completely obsessed with and totally in love with Kobayashi a few hours after they met. |

Haven't got a clue if the site still exists, though. If the live action version exists, it's probably on the internet, somewhere. |

Maybe I am misunderstanding but if you guys are talking about the actual movie those pictures are from you can find scenes from it very easily because it's a porn film. Just Google Mitsuki Nagisa demon slayer. |

I saw a subtitled version of the first episode and thought the cast was trying too hard (could have toned things down a bit). |

I think it may be two or three years old, but I’ve just come across it (on HiDive) - and judging by ep.1 at least, when it comes to mindless entertainment, it looks like Kandagawa Jet Girls may be in the running for a top spot.
The Tokyo girls are ‘adorbs’, the jet skis are hot and wet, and the competition (to see whose oppai are the bounciest, not to mention the water races themselves) is fierce. As if that weren’t enough, there’s also competitive shooting involved - with what looks like precision high-powered assault squirt guns that the competitors use to shoot each other in the ass during the race in order to cause deliberate wardrobe malfunctions. What’s not to like? I haven’t watched enough of it yet to figure out the scoring system - but I’m wondering whether it may have been influenced by the ne-plus-ultra-WTFness of Keijo, the boob-and-butt competition anime series, or perhaps vice-versa. Biggest downside so far is the sacrilegious blurring of bare oppai - why, just why would they ruin it like that? Also, one of the MCs, a dorky country-bumpkin naïf who is visiting the big city for the first time, is pretty annoying at times - well, actually pretty annoying all of the time - but her roommate-and-racing-partner is a cute ‘bijin’ who more than makes up for it. Does it look like a great and memorable series? Nope, not even close. But I think that I’ll watch at least a few more episodes, if only to see just how far they will take it in the ecchi department. |

Their interface is really odd and it's easy to miss. If you go into the language option for the show you are watching and see the "home video" option most of the time it is the uncensored version. I checked real quick and it looks like the English dub of your series is uncensored because I saw some uncensored oppai complete with TKB in episode 3. I didn't check the sub version though but the home video version is there for it too. |
