Dub Talk Retrospective 001: Death Parade

Author: dubtalkpodcast January 4, 2025 Duration: 2:33:18

Originally Recorded: December 19th, 2024

It's a big year for Dub Talk. 2025 is officially our 10th Year of doing this podcast talking about the latest and greatest in anime. But at the same time...a lot has changed since we have first done this podcast. Our thoughts, opinions, perspectives have all gotten different. Plus there's a handful of titles we never did do a proper, full show review of. We used to do impressions after all.

So starting today, we're going back to our own origins, and doing one of the very first shows ever covered on Dub Talk, but giving it its proper due. This is a limited series to honor our ten years of talking the latest and greatest in anime and English Dubs: DUB TALK RETROSPECTIVE!

Join Steph alongside new guests to the Quinndecim bar, Amon and Gigi as they review the classic anime series from Madhouse and Yuzuru Tachikawa: DEATH PARADE!

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.
