2005: Good Year for NYC Dubs?

[Anthony LoGatto]

I have a question on the end of the year: despite the unfortunate editing on One Piece (which will cause another 9/11 thanks to 4KKKids' scissors), has 2005 been a good year for NYC dubs and their actors?

I certainely would say so. With such awesome dubs such as Midoris Day, Genshiken, and Ah my goddess! it was a fantastic year!

And of course, I'll add Shingu to the list of excellent NY dubs from this year; a title that not too many people have talked about, but nonetheless has a very nice dub; I love many of the actors on the show, including Billy Regan, Angora Deb, Daniel Kevin Harrison, Lisa (sigh)Ortiz, and Rachel Lillis.

Of the '05 NY dubs I've heard, I think it was a good year. Giant Robo, Midori Days, and Shingu are all high quality dubs (only seen one vol. of Shingu, so I'm assuming it doesn't get worse). I've heard good things about the AMG and Genshiken dubs, but haven't gotten around to them yet.

As others have mentioned: Midori Days, Ah! My Goddess TV, Giant Robo, and Genshiken were all excellent. I haven't heard them yet, but based on the buzz they are getting, I plan to get Piano and Shingu eventually as well.

From what I've heard of them, Seven of Seven and Shrine of the Morning Mist are also quite good as well.

Good to know. Out of curiousity, is anybody embarrassed by the 4KKids' dub of One Piece and wish it would go to another NYC distributor like Central Park Media?

I dislike the fact that MARC DIRAISON is in it...

He should be in other shows dammit! >_> *he doesn't seem to be in a lot... I hope I'm wrong*

Hey, it's work. And he's been in quite a lot of stuff this year.

My favorite Diraison role was Kenji Murasame in Giant Robo. He rocked.

[DKL]

Yeah... work is work, you're right ^_^;

... anyway, it seems that I'm not watching whatever he's in >_> *hence my line of thinking*

...

he was in NARUTARU? *haven't been watching it dubbed...*

... but of course, I loved him in SHOOTFIGHTER TEKKEN... that show was awesome

Diraison's been in many of the highlight dubs already noted in this thread... from Giant Robo to Piano to Shrine of the Morning Mist to Midori Days to Ah My Goddess! TV.

In fact, I'd say he's easily had the best year for male talent in NYC apart from Drew Aaron.
