Dub Talk 238 - Kakushigoto

Author: dubtalkpodcast July 3, 2021 Duration: 2:27:44
It's a Father's Day celebration on Dub Talk, for all the guys working to take care of their kids without letting them know what they really do for a living. Andrew, Amon & Noah harness their best dad-energy to fully dissect the latest anime adaptation of Koji Kumeta: KAKUSHIGOTO. The comedic yet tender hearted escapades of how a manga artist juggles a less-than-reputable career with raising his adorably innocent daughter, with all the untranslatable humor you'd expect from the guy who wrote Sayannara Zetsubou Sensei. How in the world did they adapt this into an English dub? Grab your drawing tools and put on that 80s City Pop album to find out!

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.
