Dub Title Thread

Okay so I finally finished all the episodes of the latest dub batch, most I talked about earlier, now I'm gonna talk about the darkest day arc and Mewtwo episode
Starting off the bat the darkest day arc In the dub is INCREDIBLE. Sonia and Leon's VA are amazing as we saw in previous episodes and they really shined through in this arc. I like how Leon's VA sounds when hes injured by eternatus and tells the boys to run
Magnolia's VA is incredible and exactlyyy how I envisioned she should sound like, a raspy voice and I like how wise she sounds
Oleanna and Rose's VA are incredible as well, Oleanna's VA perfectly portrays the crazy secretary while Rose's VA imo is better then the Japanese version, he sounds more calm and collected and can be serious when he needs to be and in the end when he's seeing eternatus lose he doesn't make a cartoonish villain voice like in the sub lol, he feels less crazy in the dub which I like
The BGM choices for this arc were incredible, they included enough Japanese BGM to make the stakes feel as high and epic as in the raw version while having their own cool music that fits such as when the wolves appear
But....but centiskorch's voice is so baddddd omg the dub is ruined -_-
Like literally the most silliest whining I've heard, it's voice is fine and comedic tbh, shitting on the dub for the sake of it
The dub handled this arc really good, prefer it to sub


As for mewtwos episode I think they kept the same English VA for Mewtwo as in the Mewtwo strikes back evolution movie which was good. Disappointed we didn't get the movie music playing when he made his entry like in the sub. Other than that the episode was good, Goh's VA was great this episode and I like Sarah's surprised voice when Goh says he wants to catch Mewtwo


This dub really satisfied me this batch, keeping Lei's name, making the darkest day arc remain epic and keeping even filler episodes like the eating contest fun. Ig my only complaint is that they couldn't add the movie music and that S1 didn't end at the end of darkest day and S2 didn't start with the Mewtwo episode, perfect opportunity they wasted. The dub without a doubt is good again like the BW days thankfully

So it appears Iris’ VA left early in the SM series. Since the dub loves to recycle voices when recasting I hope Melissa Schoenberg (Ursula and Bernet) dubs her since I think sonically Ursula and Iris had a similar voice.

Watch it be Michele Knotz using her boring May voice...again

Yeah, I don't think Iris would sound right if Michele voiced her. There's a possible chance that they'll get Eileen back via remote recording and if not then there's always someone else like Melissa as Sham said or even an LA actor.

I complete disagree. I think it to be brilliant, what with how Journeys, among other sources, is its own adaptation of Pokemon Masters, in a fashion of speaking.

(I'm also tickled by the reminder of Master Quest as a, likely unintentional, reference.)

This season is going to be called “Pokémon Master Journeys: The Series.”

Hmm. Are we sure it isn't "Pokemon The Series: Master Journeys"? Because ever since the rebranding of the Anime outside of Japan to "Pokemon The Series: (Title)", this has always been the format used. It only looks like "Pokemon Master Journeys: The Series" because of the stylized logo, and not because it's meant to be read that way.

They do that with title logos sometimes, particularly long ones, where the big focal part of the title logo is wedged between the beginning of the name spread between the top and bottom of said big focal part.

Master Journeys? Ah, I see we're doing Sinnoh League Victors again and rehashing a previous season title but with the words changed a bit.

the official name for season 23 was Pokémon Journeys: The Series
Do you guys think these will still drop in June or get pushed back to July or August?
Why would they be pushed?
June 25th or July 2nd
Where did you get these from?

June 25th is the first summer Friday

July 2nd is if Netflix wants to time it out at the beginning of the month like it has been

and with Canada starting to air them June 12th, anything past these two Fridays for the US is simply crossed out

I think it will be June 12 since last year it was June 13. And summer isn't a constraint since people call June summer.

Then you'd mean June 11th because Netflix doesn't drop the episodes on Saturdays

Also Canada has consistently the past year always gotten episodes up to 2-3 weeks before us

My math checks out, hopefully we get the new theme song in late May to hold us over on the little extra wait
