| For those unaware, Funimation has been puting political agenda in their dubs lately, it started in Prison School with coments about GamerGate, and later in Kobayashi-san chi no Maid Dragon when a whole dialogue of Tohru and Lucoa was changed into a feminist one. Turns out they did it again: In Hajimete no Gal we now have LN readers being called (And i'm not making this up) weirdos and cucks, not only that, but we also have the use of the word SJW, and no, none of this phrases was in the original one. I only have the source in portuguese tho: https://www.vocesabiaanime.com.br/2017/09/dublagem-americana-de-hajimete-no-gal-leitores-de-light-novel-sao-tarados.html Yep, time to grab our tiki torches once more. |
| Um... I giveth no fuck-th... About-th this shit...-th |
| Come one, come all. Have a a bunch of marshmallows while we watch a bunch of kids get uptight over absolutely nothing. How's the part where you accuse SJWs for flipping over the smallest of things, Mr. Flipping out over the smallest of things?  |

| I didn't even know Kobayashi had an English dub. Huh. The more you know. |
| Never cared about dub other than games dub. |
| why would dub something as atrocious as hajimete no gal is beyond me already... and then they chose to edit it? LMAO... |

| lmao who cares? they put some shitty words into a shitty show. big fucking deal amirite lads? lets call them "fuckermation" and ignore all their good dubs because they changed a couple of lines in a shitty show. |
| btw the evil funimation fired the dipshit who wrote the script for prison school and the shitty unnecessary line change in maid dragon is just a JOKE. it's freaking obvious. don't take it too seriously lol. the women who wrote the line in the maid dragon dub is known for her work on ecchi shows so she is not one of these feminists who get upset over sexualized stuff. |
| if YOu dOnT lIkE the dub then don't watch it you fockin dub elitist hater >:((((( |

Then you don't deserve a correct dub, like srsly... don't your ears bleed? nah they don't if the dub is good and there are many good dubs that are worth watching. what did you write in the "spoiler" part ?:P |

| Eh, it's a dub so I don't really care. I don't understand why Funimation can't just stick to the original translation though. |
| i mean, if they really does care about SJW or shit like that, they wouldn't licenced shows like hajimete no gal to begin with... i mean, there is tons shows other than it that maybe more fit with the whole SJW or whatever it was... |

Phendrus said: Seriously? Funimation is a flippin' anime company. You really think they're going around insulting otakus? I could watch the show in question just to prove you wrong. However, I frankly don't care enough to scour a show I have no interest in for one supposed line. Even if such a thing were in there, any supposed mockery Funimation might make of otakus is bound to be tongue-in-cheek. Besides, you're the one making this ridiculous claim, so, to paraphrase Gandhi: "Video clips or it didn't happen." thewiru said: not only that, but we also have the use of the word SJW Oh, sweet mother of Urobuchi, not that! thewiru said: Yep, time to grab our tiki torches once more.

| a brief translation title of the article: Dublagem americana de Hajimete no Gal chama leitores de LN de nojentos tarados e etcs tl: american dub for the series Hajimete no Gal calls LN readers "disgusting", "perverted", etc Recentemente eles dublaram Hajimete no Gal, e estava tudo indo bem, mas quando chegou no sétimo episódio...Basicamente o que fizeram foi uma generalização bem ruim e ainda botaram SJW no meio. they recently dubbed the series, and everything was fine..until the 7th episode. they basically made a sweep generalization and even made a reference to SJW. A pessoa que fez a tradução de Hajimete é desconhecida, mas o pessoal está desconfiando que seja a Jamie Marchi, que trabalha na Funimation e é uma feminista conhecida. Ela se envolveu em treta primeiramente em Kobayashi-san, onde ela escreveu essa atrocidade it's not know who made the translation, but some people believe it may have been translated by Jamie Marchi, a well known feminist who works at Funi. she's know for screwing up Kobayashi-san, in which she wrote this crap .... well, i'd rather not translate the actual dialogue. i'll probably get banned if i did lol >_> so whoever wants to check, it's in episode 7 if the source is accurate, they really just gave the middle finger to the otaku community. or to those who read LN anyways. the source does seem to show that they turned what was supposed to be a joke into bashing them. hint: they call LN readers as losers and having a small....ok enough info already. you probaly got the point. |

| Honestly, it seems weirdly appropriate for Hajimete No Gal's adaptation when it comes to what I have seen. I still say "respect the source material", although, Hajimete No Gal's adaptation clearly did not do so with respects to the original work in the first place, to be honest. Honestly, even if it is an anime that one is not a fan of, I think dubbing of this nature should be frowned upon, if what the OP states is true. Or radically different dubbing of any sort, to be real here. Stop this localization bullshit. |

OH NO! That is outrageous! I made more jokes about anime watchers as a anime watchers myself, honestly I do not know what the joke is but I cannot say it is something worth getting worked up about.hollyshit they added a shitty joke into a trashy COMEDY SHOW. outrageous. exactly. well said. some people nowadays can't handle a silly joke. |

It still bothers me, as if it takes a facet of fiction you would usually find in anime and make it American, therefore destroying a small part of its identity. I am more a literalist, depending on the anime. To me, it seems to create an interest in anime under false pretense as well as a dependency on dubbing, but that is my rambling. I am having flashback of 4kids censoring a riceball with a submarine sandwhich, and I am still angered at how they altered it as if multiculturalism or something would prove fatal to Americans. Not so much exact dialogue as context, I suppose, though Hajimete....man, what are they going to do with the fat fuck Minoru, whose sole purpose is being a comedic pedophile? Eh, I guess you are right. This show is literally trash. |

Phendrus said: News Flash: The OP is flat-out WRONG After much delving, I have discerned the truth of this matter. Yes, there is a character who talks about SJWs and "cucks." However, it is NOT directed at otakus/LN readers. There's a perverted cosplay cafe manager who is trying to get his teenage staff to read graphic sex scenes from light novels aloud to the customers. When the protagonist objects to him using the girls for something so overtly degrading, the manager calls him a "cuck" and "SJW." Although the manager is serious, Funimation clearly intended the line as a joke, and the line isn't even directed at otakus to begin with. So, the source the OP linked is straight-up lying.

Who makes this bilge? @thewiru: if you have any sense of responsibility in you, you will revise your OP to reflect the fact that this was a false rumor so that you may quell the misinformation you spread. It should be noted that there's a line specifically talking about the people who visit cosplay cafes and the like: "Plus, most of the freaks who come in here hate women and seeing girls degraded gives them boners and makes them happy." "Maybe think about how these girls feel for once. Maybe they don't want to be degraded just so you can sell a few more chicken wings to horny losers with mommy issues." It's pretty difficult for me to believe that it isn't being insulting, honestly, given exactly what they say and the context they say it in >_> I do believe that it's completely admonishable behavior to force an employee to read things that they clearly aren't comfortable with aloud in public, and that's not what I'm arguing per se, but at the same time I'm not exactly certain they weren't trying to be degrading via projection of intents, beliefs, and personal histories just because there are people who like seeing attractive women do cosplay and go/would like to go to a place like a cosplay cafe. I feel like the issue taken in the OP was kind of misaimed, but I feel this defense of it as being a kind of misaimed as well, y'know? I can't escape the impression based on some of the dialogue that it's still much more malicious in nature than what you're ascribing to it here. |
