It shouldn't. Anyone in the US would know Britannia isn't even remotely like the U.S. We don't have royalty for one.
Of course in Japan where they think everyone in the U.S. walks around with at least a pistol if not a submachine gun at all times and that we have daily free for all shoot outs here....... well they might not realize this. |

I wonder how many Japanese know how the backstory is interpreted by Brits and Americans....
Personaly (British here) I see it as quite an honest view of what Britian could/probably would have become had the Empire continued..... Are the directors thinking Brittania = USA or Brittania = Britian...... thats what intriuges me..... With regards to voice actors..... oh..... gods.... no. Some were good, some were terrible. For an ex-nobel Milly had the wrong voice, she should be upper crust. Lelouch..... his should be refined to pay tribute to his royal blood - he sounded... completely wrong. Surprisingly I liked Kallens depiction so far, Clovis was good - he should have been voicing Lelouch imho. |

C.C voice sounds too light and ordinary. its not her usual sharp tone.
Lelouch voice sounds completely disconnected from his facial expressions Suckzakus voice is ok Clovis voice is DAM PERFECT matches his face and the tone is stable

... censorship aside, I'm starting to get used to the demur Lelouch Johnny is portraying, he lacks the authority I think is required when being Zero, but I'll wait until he puts the helmet on for that. In any event, I think it was slightly better in this version because it fit well with the peaceful school setting. Now if only he could get a bit darker and more sadistic we'd be set

Actually it was just Japanese that sounded like those words. The subtitles didn't translate them as that because they weren't those words. The song itself wasn't bleeped out at all.
And really all the people who were all "Dur hur hur he said the f-bomb in engrish dur hur hur" only proved to be complete morons that needed to grow up. |

I'm still loving Suzaku and getting used to Lelouch. I don't think JYB is nearly as bad as everyone is making him sound.
CC is iffy for me, mostly because of her pronunciation. However, Clovis and Rivalz are wonderful. Shirley needs to work on her enunciation a bit. Some of the classmates voices really got on my nerves, but they're just walla, so it doesn't matter much. Schoolgirl Kallen isn't bad, either. Nunnaly has a little bit of raspiness in her voice, and though it wasn't what I was expecting, it's not absolutely terrible. However, I quite dislike it. "Japanese promise". Hmm. Also, the censorship is completely justified in my book. It'll probably be normal on the DVD, so don't freak out over it. XD In my mind, Rivalz = Takato. Shoot me now. I'm really liking the dub so far, I must admit. I'm looking forward to future episodes. |
