Dub Talk 048: First Love Monster

Dub Talk 048: First Love Monster

Author: dubtalkpodcast December 3, 2016 Duration: 1:48:36

Originally recorded August 19, 2016

Based on the split reactions to this show, the term "love monster" is a pretty apt description.

Finishing up the Summer 2016 Broadcast Dubs, Gigi Megan & Noah dive into the waters of magically sexy 5th graders and awkward romances that could only have come from Japan. Surely something this silly would have an equally silly English dub right? Grab your recorder and incinerate your catboys, as the Dub Talk crew goes up against a true First Love Monster.

Special thanks goes out to Monica Rial (@Rialisms) for answering our casting question at Youmacon. Jamal (@Jamstar529) had also confirmed the information earlier, so it was nice to have on-camera confirmation from the official staff as well. We try to back up our research with viable credentials around here.

Ever find yourself wondering how a particular line was delivered in the studio, or which voice actor just absolutely nailed a challenging scene? Dub Talk digs into those details. This isn't just a checklist of what's new; it's a conversation about the craft and character behind the English adaptations of anime. We get into the performances that bring favorite roles to life, discussing the nuances that make a dub feel authentic or fall flat. You'll hear us break down episodes and films, talking about directorial choices, script adaptations, and the occasional brilliant or baffling casting decision. It's for anyone who appreciates the art of the dub, from seasoned fans to those just curious about what happens after the original recording booth. Tune in to the Dub Talk podcast for thoughtful, often lively reviews that go beyond the subtitles. We're here to talk about the voices you know, the ones you're about to discover, and the work that goes into making an imported story feel like it was spoken just for you.
