    Yeah, I can totally help with this later!

    Awesome, thanks Kay! I’ll chat you the other frames; it’s just a matter of the envelope moving, but it moves while the flashback fades in, so brightness tweaks might be needed too.

    If you can’t find an acronym, you could just blank out the sticker and put CONFIDENTIAL across the whole envelope, like a stamp? it’d look better than cramming a whole word into the sticker there, I think.

    Hmm, that’s not a bad idea! Or just making the sticker rectangular and slapping “CONFIDENTIAL” on it; I didn’t think of that haha.  My contingency was maybe using “confidential” but using the word twice and having them meet in the middle, kinda like

    C     C

       O

    N      N

    but that’d definitely be better.  Curious, any chance you’d be able to assist with it at some point today? Just since I’m still not sure about placing text at a perspective in Photoshop haha.

  • The karaoke for BelievexBelieve looks great, but there were a couple of things that threw me off? there are places where the singer is using correctly pronounced English, but the karaoke lyrics use - ugh, I don't know how to word it. Like, "supiido zenkai harahara on za geemu" - "on za geemu" looks weird because the singer is clearly singing "game" with its English pronunciation (vs. "speed" in the same line where he's using the Japanese pronunciation). "ma-ma-ma-maindo" feels the same way.
    paradoxi-kay

    Think you mean “romaji?” :P

    I get what you mean though, lol.  Thing is, for the karaoke, I like to use the Japanese lyrics as they’re written; it’s why, for “Sunshine/Kaisei” in GX, you’d see “Sailing My Sea” in English–because it’s written out in English without any kana–but “ooshan rainaa” over “ocean liner”–because the lyrics use romaji for it.  In that lyric, speed’s written out in romaji while game’s written out in English but with romaji above it, so that’s why I went that way.  Which admittedly does make it slightly harder to time the syllables, but idk I feel it’d look weird if, in the line before (“kachimake ja nai saikyou no kaado”), it was “card” in there when they also still pronounce it “kaado.”

    That said, he doesn’t actually pronounce the “o” in “maindo” but for consistency, I kept it as “maindo.”

    You’re getting good at this! \o/ The shading on the cuff on our right looks a little… I can’t figure out what’s off about it, it just bothers me, which I know is pretty useless feedback. ;_; I think it’s because the highlight is so much more prominent than anything else on her in that shot?

    I mean, I’ve had some good teachers between you and xjudai :D

    Haha, no worries, that’s exactly the feeling I’m getting.  It could be the highlight, but I tried to use the color of the highlight on her hand under the bubble and match it to where the highlight on her skin is, so iunno… I did try to use a slightly darker shade, too. :s

    Also, here’s where I am with the skinned-down cuff on her right arm, just making a quick mask to trim it down:

    I think at the very least, just skinning down the left cuff like I did that one might do it; I’ll move it down so it starts under her shoulder cup, and likely mask the shoulder and her fingers over it in Vegas so it looks better.

  • akameniseis reblogged your post and added:

    tysm for sharing these, the uncut dub really is fascinating! I rewatched it when you first posted this but I’ll give you a reblog anyway~

    (Don’t mention what could have been. The thought of a decently-dubbed Doma makes me want to cry. :( Some of the voice acting was spectacular - with a better script, Dartz and Mai would’ve been amazing, and Rafael and Alister weren’t bad either.

    …hopefully they would’ve done something about Valon’s accent, though, if they’d gotten that far.)

    No worries! It’s really interesting seeing how they handled them, and while things sound stilted initially, you can tell they started getting a handle on things by about episode 6-7 (especially when they start using “Damn it!”).

    You have no idea how salty I am that I won’t hear Wayne Grayson’s Dartz with much better dialogue and all the original music D: Having a consistent Mai would’ve been awesome too, and Mai’s VA in these would’ve done pretty well.  I loved Rafael’s voice, liked Alister’s, and, uh… I actually liked Valon’s accent. XD I really hope 4K decides to revisit this sometime, be it DM or any of the spinoffs.  

    And I would’ve really liked for them to ditch the synthesizer for Dark Malik’s voice; it’s the most annoying part of watching the Battle City Finals in the dub.  SO MUCH LOST POTENTIAL

    Favorite deck in the show: Kind of a tie between Elemental Heroes and Yuya’s Entermates, but I also like Masumi’s Gem-Knights, Johan’s Gem Beasts, and Reiji’s D/D/Ds! I’ve been trying to get enough DP in Tag Force Special to build a D/D/D deck (or minimal one, since not all the cards are there), and it’s suffering getting multiple copies of some of the cards.  May shoot for EMs…

    Favorite generation: original (what arc?)/GX/5Ds/Zexal/Arc-V: In terms of the show, I’d say 5D’s is still a favorite (despite the shortcomings after the DS arc) because Riding Duels are fun to watch, but I’m really enjoying ARC-V so far (the music definitely helps that), and of course GX will always be a favorite.  DM does get a shout-out, but now that I’ve been reading the manga, it’d get more points if it was a closer adaptation of it.  I do enjoy it, though, and I’m looking forward to DSOD.

    Merchandise you own: Hah, not a lot of it, I’m afraid! Aside from cards, which I’m sure I still have 1000+ of from high school, lol.  I also do have my WC2007 and 08 games lying around, and GX Spirit Caller should be somewhere too.  I’ve been meaning to buy that DA pin I saw around, though…

    Thanks for the ask! :) (x)

  • Why does everyone seem to be watching the Italian dub of Arc-V? Is it released before the English dub, or is it more readily available online, or what? This is a super unimportant question, I'm just curious!
    paradoxi-kay

    Haha, well, so as everyone knows, 4K’s been hella slow about getting the ARC-V dub airing here in the US.  But Italy started airing their Italian dub, based off the 4K English dub (unfortunately), earlier this year, and Canada started airing it once a week over the summer, I think.  Then, Australia came in this fall (I think ‘round August?) and started airing them thrice a week (they’ll be airing 37-39 this weekend).  get your life together 4k

    I stumbled onto this site a few weeks ago that has .mpg medium-quality rips of the Italian dub, which I’ve been using to satisfy (heh) my curiosity on how the episodes are handled a bit (and conveniently refresh my Italian).  Would’ve been nice if they got to dub it based on the original (they did so for GX Season 4 which was awesome), though.  But there’s that if you wanna check it out!
