and you can make the point "there will be people who enjoy menial tasks" and stuff, and sure there will be, but not at the amount we have them now

its that case of "why would i wanna scrape someone elses poop off the public toilet, when that same pooper is writing a 3rd rate poetry slam

I mean if they didn't get some sort of value out of fan translations why would they do them?

Ppl draw motivation from different things

Some ppl just wanted to share i think

Some did it for fame when they added their name as translator

Maybe ?

well that fame is their intended reward

but i joined mid-discussion so i don't know the overarching topic 😄

i'll leave you to it

Subbed anime is a human right.

Dubbed anime is a war crime as outlined in the Geneva convention

what is the difference between manga and subbed anime? With manga you get to appreciate the art after you finish reading the text.

Manga wastes your time less

I've almost entirely converted over. There's just a few series that are either TV only or that I'm already most of the way through in animu form

Granted the only new series I watch is puppets, not drawings, but still

Depends tbh

Some manga is better than anime and vice versa

name 1!

Cant say that there are many series ive read and watched

Name 1 what ?

Anime better then manga or manga better then anime ?

<:GWcfcThonk:357907199928041473>

I think he means the later

one of them 😛

I cant debate it cuz i never watched either

Often anime only adapt part of mangas

Or ln or vn for that matter

lets not go down those rabbit holes, stay with anime vs managa

For example just this ended season i would say hinamatsuri manga was better then anime adaptation

Anime was very good tho

Koe no katachi (silent voice) manga is better the animation

this is just like that "this wasnt in the books" fanboy attitude

I would say anime is better for the visuals

because manga can sometimes be very messy in just b/w

Dubbed anime is superior for the following reasons:

1) no habla japanese
2) I don't have enough time in the day to sit down and *just* watch anime
3) ~~English is the best language~~

The VA is almost invariably shit though

But if it's time you're after manga is the solution

You know, the japs also feel the same about dubbed american cartoons.

Like King of the Hill is a big discussion there, most japs prefer the english version

Wait really?
