Even after more than 2 decades, I still consider Turn A to be the single highest quality

title ever made. Though I greatly enjoy many other entries, both newer & older, for me this is still the peak of the franchise.

This clarifies a message that's always been in his works; that "Newtypes" aren't about psychic ace pilots, but are a metaphor for forward thinking (typically younger) individuals who call out old prejudiced and greedy ways of thinking, and motivate those around them to be better.

Again, I truly don't know when it drops, but the new official English youtube channel just put up Dubbed end of ep previews for 1075-1088. Make of that what you will.
@CiaranStrange
@Saruei_
This. Morally, it's just wrong, but even in a pragmatic way, how can one trust people who view others as something to be dehumanized, oppressed, destroyed, and conquered? How is that an emotionally safe relationship?
Diversity of opinion within things like art and media are fine
Nice of them to announce it beforehand for once. My assumption is Episodes 977-988 will drop, and the next set will go right up to 1000!
Also, maybe we'll be getting sets every 3 weeks now? We've done enough hard work behind the scenes that it's certainly possible!
The Straw Hats are on their way to Onigashima! Are they prepared for the challenges ahead?

Didn't grow up with it like most did, but in 2010 I started with DB Ep 1 and went all the way through GT, all in JP with every special/film included in release order. Then I rewatched DBZ Kai dubbed as it came out.
This was, for me, the best experience by far. OG DB is amazing.
Nakama, rise up!
The cries of the people have been heard!
Congrats to every single person involved in this incredible production on both sides of the pacific!

Keep watching and supporting

Been waiting to post because it’s a big one…Nov 1st was my last day as a director at Crunchyroll after 6 years. I wanted to invest in myself, my interests and most importantly my family. I’m going to miss working with so many talented actors and of course my beloved One Piece…
The past 72 hours have been like a wild fever dream that I can't quite put into words.
Thank you to everyone who was so incredibly kind and supportive at

Until we meet again!

The passion put into recording this dub batch is peak!💖
@EmilyJFajardo
We're all excited for G5, but let's not forget the other awesome moments! Zoro's final clash with King! Law and Kid's combined efforts against Big Mom! And Nami's fearless stare down with Kaido himself! Lots to be excited for here!

is wrapping soon and I have a lot of feelings about it, but I'll talk more about it after it wraps

When I began doing anime dubs a few years back, I promised myself I would keep up and watch any show I was cast in, regardless of size...
...and then late last year I got the email "Hey, can you come in and record for One Piece tomorrow?"
I've got a lot of work ahead of me...
I was honored to be a finalist in the

competition at ACEN this year. My initial goal was just to practice the audition process, but even making it to the finals was a big compliment!
Thank you to everyone who was kind and supportive during the event. I had a ton of fun

role announcement as Yatappe.
As I wait patiently the next & final Wano Dub batch to release, I reflect on what's changed in my life since I first started recording in 2022, and I can only say;
Thank you, my friends. My nakama!
Got to record 2 back 2 back sessions right before going to see the
#ONEPIECE
symphony at the Dallas Orcheatra.
(Hence me dressing up one more time...)
The symphony was incredible. Covered multiple favorites from the entire OST. If you still can, get tickets to the LA showing!
And I'm here safe in LA for thr first time in years! I'll be wandering around downtown LA and at the ep 1000 premiere tomorrow evening, then at the con itself all day on the 3rd.
Can't wait! Have a great night.
@yugiohtas
George has gone on record as saying it's meant to be seen as the grim reaper touching Anakin (as he symbolically dies and becomes Vader after this). Palpatine's face was made deliberately more pale in this shot for that purpose alone.
I'm officially jealous of anyone who's close enough to go see this in person. I can't wait for episodes 1000+ to drop. That's when some of the truly wild stuff happens...

Many of the big, popular platforms that started after 2016 create new shows at a loss, spending more money than they make, with the hope to attract new, regular subscribers.
But when too many services do this at once, they all don't grow enough to be profitable, and some die out

I forgot to write something, but hopefully I can do so next time.
@JaxWinterbourne
Even when working in anime, there are other aspects of life here that are a challenge. DFW and Houston are EXTREMELY car dependent, corporate, and massive metros without as many walkable regions.
That makes it hard to build a stable social support network even as a working actor

Having grown up in the online fangame Sonic scene, I cannot emphasize enough how cool it is to see this kind of lost material finally recovered.
I first remember reading about these lost stages in the late 90s, when the original Sonic 2 prototypes were uncovered.
Yeah, if someone with the credentials and career of Steve Blum's caliber is this angry, you know something is very, very wrong.
Clearly, the members were not consulted to a meaningful degree.
@sagaftranews
Excuse me? With all due respect…you state in the article “Approved by affected members of the union’s voiceover performer community.” Nobody in our community approved this that I know of. Games are the bulk of my livelihood and have been for years. Who are you referring to?
@MicrosoftStore
While I am a dub actor for the Wano arc, I've also been watching dubbed and subbed anime for 25 years. I love the sheer # of 70s and 80s veteran seiyuu you'll find in the OG cast. I have immense respect for them.
Suichi Ikeda as Shanks is the definition of perfect meme casting.
The
#Gunbuster
dub is perfect. I have no other word for it, and I've been watching and buying mecha anime for nearly 25 years now.
The entire cast perfectly hits a fine balance between modern dub techniques and classic campy 80s hot blooded intensity. I cannot reccomend it more!

I'd argue it's been easy to track this message across the entirety of his works, all the way back to 0079. The fact that he so often ties it to war is besides the point; he wants people to be better, more empathetic, more like a "New Type" of people, not follow "old" instincts.
The further I go into this career, the more the anime community, bit by bit, becomes like the found family I never quite had.
And I'm eternally grateful.
I cannot even describe the nerdom power level I needed to reach to recognize even half the cameos in this video, even after all 25 years of actively researching JPN pop culture...
Finding Bert and Ernie between Rider V3, Gavan, and beneath Giant Robo is still an experience...
Happy 40th anniversary to Daicon IV (first screened on August 20th, 1983).

The
#SAGAFTRA
Strike vote was unanimous. Begins at midnight
The Strike is now official. It impacts those under the 2020 TV AND THEATRICAL production contracts. It does not currently directly impact:
- Interactive Media
- Audiobooks
- Music
- Commericals
- "Other Contract Area"
Good advice. I've tried to make it a rule to have as much fun as I can while auditioning... to give each read the same excitement as if it was a paid job.
After all, there's ways I can experiment auditioning that I can't necessarily do in the booth, & that itself helps me learn.
Voice Actor Tip 🎙️
Stop stressing about auditioning and start having fun.
You're job as an actor is to breath life into the words on the page and when you're stressed that comes through in the read. So do whatever you need to do get yourself in the right headspace & have fun!
The raid at Onigashima begins!
Some excellent fight scenes in this batch. Can't wait to watch it and share more tidbits!

While I certainly do want to succeed, it doesn't mean I can't celebrate when you do. Then, when/if I ever do (really, in whatever goal I may have), it means we all celebrate together. I'd rather live in a world where we all do that than one where we push one another down.
There is no easy way to summarize events like
#animecentral
