anime_manga2025-10-31 08:01 pm"Crunchyroll is destroying its subtitles for no good reason" by Daiz
Article Link [here].
While I recommend reading the whole article, I'm also going to place a summary copied from tumblr (og post here) under a cut.
( How Crunchyroll is ruining its subtitles, how we got here, and why it matters. )
Considering the average Dreamwidth user probably remembers when Crunchyroll was a piracy site, as well as the golden age of fansubbing, I'm wondering what people's preferred solution for monopolization, and subsequent decrease in quality, of official anime streaming is. Should we focus our efforts more on pressuring Crunchyroll (and streaming services at large) to fix its subtitles, or on re-invigorating and suporting fansub groups and fansub culture?

Happy Halloween, Anime fans
The dubbed version aired on Cartoon Network in another country, not sure if it ever did in the US, but there are some episodes uploaded at YouTube if interested.
So Happy Halloween and all that, I'm going back to my own thing.

(In fact, that was the first time I began watching it.)
I'm also watching episodes of Ghost Sweeper Mikami with the same goal of finishing it up as well.
Anyone here also watching Horror/Supernatural themed Anime this month?

dw_maintenance2025-10-25 08:42 amDatabase maintenance
Good morning, afternoon, and evening!
We're doing some database and other light server maintenance this weekend (upgrading the version of MySQL we use in particular, but also probably doing some CDN work.)
I expect all of this to be pretty invisible except for some small "couple of minute" blips as we switch between machines, but there's a chance you will notice something untoward. I'll keep an eye on comments as per usual.
Ta for now!

Spy X Family voice actor temporarily steps down
"This isn't permanent but when my voice comes back I can pop back in," Chambers said. "I'm currently in voice therapy to work on getting back to my normal range. But for now, Becky (and other baby voices) will be voice matched."
The announcement came hours before Season 3 of Spy X Family premiered on Crunchyroll.
Meanwhile, Chambers will still be providing her vocal talents to other characters in the show. Alongside voicing Becky Blackbell in Spy x Family, Chambers has also been in the English dubs of Solo Leveling, Frieren: Beyond Journey's End, and several video games, including Pokemon Masters and Genshin Impact. - gamesradar
