Hi,

I am taking up the comment by DasDingus regarding key episodes which were emotional.

I thoguht I'd show you a comparison of a deep scene in which Kotomi has a breakdown when she sees that bus crash with a car.

Compare the English and Japanese dubs! I really think the Japanese puts the English to shame!

English Dub- Watch from 1:08

Japanese Dub- Watch from 0:19

Comments? I do know this may fit under the Video thread, but I just thoguht this scene provides a glimpse of comparing the scenes in English which are the be all or end all. Because emotional/crying/screaming scenes need to be very very good in English to be as close as possible to the Japanese.

I thought the English dub of the link above seemed weird. And I was very lucky to come across an English and Jap version of the same scene.
