Not to mention the simpering "I'm .... I'm just holding back the sobs" voice she grows into.
This dub is such a piece of shit.

[TV] The What Anime Are You Watching Thread!
you guys are killing me over here, you have been BITCHING since they launched the english trailer, YOU ARE STILL BITCHING! WE ALL KNEW IT WAS GOING TO SUCK FROM THE TRAILER! seriously, if this keeps up any longer my brain is going to implode from the shear density of everyone who make it the main point of every conversation on the subject of anime recently released in North America. I aint even mad, just shocked that this shit has been able to maintain speed for what? 3-4 months? it was the chosen one and now its the frickin darth vader of anime adaptions to english.
meanwhile I am trying to figure out how I will budget 250 bucks for the new BLU-RAY RELEASE OF CARDCAPTOR SAKURA, WHAT!? yes, NIS-America is bringing it over and I have some bets to make good on that I made years ago.
also, started watching kill-la-kill last night, we made it to episode 10 before I needed to crash. The show is amazing and I will buy it when it eventually comes out in the US.

Attack on Titan is still great; it's just what they're doing with it that's the problem. Your Star Wars analogy is apt.
Out of curiosity, why is it $250?
Because apparently the only way to buy the Blu Ray version is to get the premium set, shown here.

While that's a big ticket item, anime's never been cheap anyway. I remember paying like 90 bucks just for one season of Ranma 1/2 back when Suncoast was a thing.
40 bucks for season 1 on blu-ray! there is two schools now, make it as cheap as possible so it has mass market appeal, or make it have tons of add-ons and perks and it costs a fortune and aim at the niche collector market.
I mentioned the Cardcaptor Sakura release to my wife, and then started asking her why she liked the show since it was "so cheesy". She didn't know what I was talking about--she'd never seen Kids WB localization and dub. Somehow I remembered the English opening. She covered her ears and started screeching.
So it's not just Attack on Titan. Others can feel this pain.
But anyway CARDCAPTORS OF THE CLOW, EXPECTED THE UNEXPECTED NOW.

That series takes place in the same universe as Xxxholic. Even typing it it still sounds weird.

Did not know that. Yeah, that is really weird.
The Clamp group does a good chunk of cross overs between their works. Personally I think their just building up to some weird Avengers style cross-over comic, that may or may not be awesome.

It'll be noodletastic.
tsubasa reservoir chronicle....
Really? Cool! Hey did the show ever cross over with the Xxxholic show? I'm pretty sure it didn't.
I don't think the Xxxholic show is done with yet, is it?
Manga no, show yes.
Yes....the first world they go is xxxholic tokyo and get makona from yuko.
Huh, you'd think the people who made Xxxholic and Tsubasa chronicles woulda made the first episodes of both series have similar scenes like in the manga-BUT WHATEVS!
Never did finish it, but it's funny. Mostly slice-of-life if I remember right.
Just saw the first three eps of Chrome Shell Regios...ew boy this show is cliche as all hell. Not bad necessarily as I've only seen the first 3 eps but it feels like they just shoved a bunch of tropes in the story oven and took it out too soon. Especially the protagonist whose one of those super tough warrior dudes who doesn't want to be a super tough warrior dude because of back story.
Also Baka and Test, its just okay. Both the plot and the jokes are pretty predictable.

Baka/Test (both seasons) were pretty enjoyable, imo, but don't expect any kind of resolutions. It's very much a harem in that regard.
I still can't finish Regios, it has its moments but all in all it just isn't very good.

I figured and me as well probably.

Yeah, but there's a downside you might not have been aware of while watching it. Did you catch it?
The Attack on Titan dub sucks. 
You are a monster...i think I want to talk to you more often. In any case next is to finish magic users club.Yeah, but there's a downside you might not have been aware of while watching it. Did you catch it?

Sorry I'm only seeing this now. Since I don't watch much anime, I don't visit this thread often. But I've noticed that over the years, it seems people are less and less receptive to the idea of criticism. Or more to the point, there's less GREY area in criticism among the general internet populace. Something is either unbelievably awesome, like the second coming of Christ wearing power armour made of kittens or it's the absolute worst, piece of monkey doodie, worse than Hitler and 9/11 put together.
Just look when a game gets a good score, but not 10/10. Hardcore fans will rail against the reviewer for DARING to not give their precious game a perfect score.
I think it all stems from the growing petulant entitlement among western society.
