I just wish production/actors were given more time & paid more for technically more difficult work. My generation, the one before mine, & the one currently working all grew up watching anime & know how great it is. I think it’s very telling how much money anime makes, & yet how little we see of it.
Nah, you’re good. I just wanted to add my two cents. I think (not you) the majority of fans feel like they’re entitled to have things fast. And when they don’t they are mad & if they do will complain about the quality. Anime dubbing is in a very weird place right now and I feel it isn’t sustainable
Also, unfortunately most fans expect simuldubs and it’s hard to put that genie back in the bottle. Overall, dubs across the board are much better & some are extraordinary. But with few exceptions it’s rarer to see truly extraordinary writing and performance as often because of tight turn arounds.
Then on top of that most anime, not all, are non-union so there’s no recourse in getting more pay because we don’t have union standards. So folks in prod. have to fight for that, & most of the time it’s ignored. Most folks in anime would love if all anime was Union but it’s been difficult to achieve
And the studios doing production your Crunchyrolls & BangZooms of the world expect you to get each script done in less than a week & at the same time not give you all the materials you need to do that. Then when it eats over the allotted time, they can’t pay you extra b/c it’s not in the budget.
The issue here is the turn around for streamers in the US. A lot of the times it’s this, the release date is set/announced for both US and Japan. The client Netflix or whoever are like cool, here’s the materials, get this all adapted, directed, & recorded in a month.
As someone who has worked as an actor and writer and director in the Anime industry, please know that simuldubs and the lack of compensation for the labor of time/energy are actively hurting us. Working untenable hours and holidays is causing numerous health issues, too. LET’S DEMAND BETTER!!!
Scenes from a Hat for the win! Glad I got to see it live during the Aisha Tyler seasons. Saw two episodes recorded. It was very weird seeing how they record, mostly that they shoot all the intros last. Ryan had to go to bathroom so his close up with him taping his watch saying, “I got to go.”
Friendly discussion, even if you disagree can still be fulfilling. In my experience I've found it far more effective to actually engage & understand why someone does/doesn't like something rather than going after them & their enjoyment. Ad hominem attacks just seem the norm now. 3/3
You can, not like how a franchise is going without being a dick towards those who still get enjoyment out of the new & old stuff. It's so fucking childish. Be critical of stuff you don't like, but don't attack those who do, and if you engage do so to understand not to harm. 2/3
Gotta love people having a "funeral" for a franchise that they think is dead b/c it's not what they remember. Hell even if you think the writing and story has been bad there's *checks notes* 6 full series, 10 movies, multiple games, books, comics, & TTRPG's to still enjoy. 1/3
tell me which side is anti-comedy and anti-free speech again
Watching @cheyennethegeek.bsky.social pilot of #TheComicShop before I go to bed. Really cool to finally see the final product!
Watching #PeaceMaker with the @heroesreforged.bsky.social homies @hectorisfunny.bsky.social @adamhlavac.bsky.social Agustin Rios
And I’m sure he got paid the same as everyone else…
This lovely human is a joy. Both as a dear friend of 11 years (can you believe it?!) and as a writer, director, and actor. Also, you need to have @jalenkcassell.bsky.social in season 3. They’d make a killer villain or love interest, or a million other things. They’ve got range.
When @jumpleads.zone season 2 starts dropping, I really hope people have something to say about @wdm1262.bsky.social's performance, because it's just perfect. We have an amazing cast this season, and he just quietly steps in and brings a phenomenal (if brief!) performance. He's really so, so good.
I hope we work together forever my friend ^^
Ben you’re gonna make me fucking cry. Thank you 🥺
Fuck Tess. I hate that this is happening. I want nothing more than for you and Chris to find the peace you need. You and Chris have been nothing but kind to me and I will always have your back because of it. I love you guys and I hope someday we can share a meal and laugh together.
Alright, here's what Saige did to me.
If you're a PoC you are not safe around her.
The last THREE YEARS have been heartbreaking and soul-crushing, and I'm SO glad to finally be able to speak out publicly.
I'm still at SDCC, so I may add more later: www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/rcfsd...
Spoke with Surena, checked in, and I’m only going to say a few things. (Even if she did say I can let the chopper sing) The only reason I’m saying anything is because while everyone wants to step away “until they have all the facts”, that didn’t stop many people from spreading the lies via texts.
Holy shit, I just caught up on all of this. Looked at both sides of people and your post laid out the facts very plainly. People like to jump the gun when it comes to this shit.
My dude, I’ve been bald for 11 years. I’d hate this if I was still holding onto having my hair XD
Alright, I’m migrating to be here more, I’ve been using Twitter (since 09) to just follow and keep up with people and things I like. But a good friend made it clear that even if I’m not engaging with that it’s better to not stay on it because it’s supports it.

Wahey! @wdm1262.bsky.social returns for another cameo in season 2!
Wesley had a blink-and-you'll-miss-it cameo in season 1, and returns (possibly as the same character?) in an episode this season. Glad to have you back, Wesley! #audiodrama

Thanks @paperbagboy.bsky.social for having me. But yeah I make the announcement here that after John got recast, that was the final straw for me & I told hoyo I was not coming back to record until they signed the SAG interim agreement, as I have still been dealing with my youtu.be/nmlJhpexL4k?...
