I wish companies would stop scooping up everything. I wouldn't mind buying them if they weren't A. So bloody expensive (yes I now, we all need to pay the bills, but anime can run up to $30 just for three episodes. Remember Evangaleon on VHS? Two episodes for $28?)
Just go to Best Buy, they sell practicly all their DVDs for $20, while Suncoast ect. sells them for their normal $25-30.
B. Their subs are generally shitty and run along the english translation instead of what they're actually SAYING.
Geneon's subs? Really I can't remember if I have seen something dubbed by them. The Bo7 dvds did that with their subs, and that was really annoying, but every other DVD I have bought has had actuall translation subs. Except maybe YGO Uncut, but still.
C. For me the english version is (generally) a waste and it's like paying for something I don't even want to begin with. People will argue, but if that's the case they shouldn't want/need the japanese version, right? I know few people who watch both versions willingly.
I'm actually one of those people ^^; I generally watch the dub, it's something I can watch while cleaning my room or something without haveing to be glued to the screen, and I generally prefer the dub voices (There are many exceptions though). Then again, the japanese version also has it's share of good voices (And more teen-like for most Shonen anime), and a lack of the add-ins that dubs usually have. I can be pretty content watching either one.
What I'm trying to say is that I am looking forward to the dub >_>;; Yeah, that's what I'm saying...
