No it doesn't. It needs a bit of volume yes, but I feel the English dub was actually pretty reasonable.
I prefer the Japanese dub obviously, but hearing that the English side of things turned out great was nice to hear. If you guys have not purchased the BD yet, I suggest you do.

In fact, I've only seen one anime (Cowboy Bebop) that has good dubbing. So most English-speaking anime watchers just avoid it and not waste time buying/downloading dubbed material. But I'll agree somewhat that people shouldn't just blindly criticize dubs and dub-watchers. |

But seriously English dubs have been getting better to the point where they are pretty much on par acting wise with the Japanese ones. It helps that the English scripts have been getting more fluid and less full of Engrishisms as well. Also helpful is that since the start of the new millennium companies have pretty much completely stopped trying to Americanize everything and to just bullshit a completely random script across based on what is happening on screen and sometimes not even. That said I usually still prefer to watch movies and TV shows in the language they were originally intended for authenticities sake, but when it comes to shows like Gundam which often feature characters from all kinds of nationalities other than Japanese I could go either way. I mean the show even has a song with English lyrics in it's soundtrack, albeit sung by a Japanese woman with a noticeable accent: They are fully willing to go international on this one and I say it pays to support the effort by supporting both audio dubs. |
