  • what are you doing listening to Japanese speaking voices?

    I think some anime legitimately sounds better with the Japanese voice acting, but some people take it too far and extrapolate that to mean all anime is better with Japanese voices and any dub is immediately shit. It becomes these weird gate-keeping elitism among losers where you literally can’t enjoy ‘anime’ a certain way or else these people won’t think you’re ‘cool.’

    One Punch Man sounds better with the Japanese voices imo. Saitama sounds downright iconic in Japanese, but like a generic wimpy boy in English.

    The vast majority of other shows I prefer watching in English. Either the dub is identical in quality to the sub, or the difference is small enough that I don’t care since I prefer watching things in my language.




  • A realistic one to apply to our societies?

    Realistically, all the money spent on fake meat research could be spent on providing food for those who are starving.

    These people don’t get to choose between fake meat or real meat. It’s either starve and die or starve and die.

    Fake meat is just for the incredibly small pool of affluent individuals who think consuming animals is wrong but maximizing profit is not. Where do they get the money for this anyways in a world where children go without food, water, shelter, electricity, and education? I guess these affluent individuals should have more before those kids.
