Well, if successful, it could actually lead to good dubs

BTW, this is the same kind of thing that let SJW infiltrate anything in the first place, if they get away with this shit, they'll double down and get away with it forever

>>283234

You SHOULD care, anon.

>>283237

About anime? Not likely.

>>283234

>>283245

Allow me to rant

Man, I'm pretty goddang disheartened by this shit, even at KiA the thread is gaining upvotes, but incredibly slowly, it looks like it might go into the front page/new page abyss and stop gaining traction and be forgotten there.

As I said, you don't act, they win, whatever the fuck happened to "First they came …", we have right here a problem that's pretty much uniting the anime fans and pretty much all of them are against what's going, we have finally an event to unite everyone (because that's amazingly hard to do, hence no GG happened because it finally did) because that's one terrible ass dub here and no one seems to care.

I know there's shit ton of people who watches/like anime in GG, where the fuck are you guys right now? Even if not really an anime fan, where the fuck are the guys annoyed at SJW infiltrating everywhere they don't belong and shitting it up? The fuck man? Why are we even there anymore?

And you know what will make a real hot mess if done right? Mass e-mailing Funimation about this, telling them we aren't ok with with their shitty ass non-answer, their shitty ass script (and script writer) and their shitty ass dubs. THAT will make a hot mess, and you bet the other companies will be watching that hot mess.

But as it looks right now the golden opportunity is slipping away because everyone is too much shitting and whining instead of actually doing something about it. Also come on man, don't be that anon and help the anime comrades just as you'd like the anime comrades to be there when this shit happens to vidya. Fuck, a lot of us are both too and I seriously don't want that shit to happen to anime.

Also this isn't vidya, this is anime, where piracy is 1:1 and requires very little effort and smarts, hell, I've been in cancerous noobs communities and even them knows how to pirate, these shitty streaming sites are everywhere man, it's as easy as it can be. This is especially why Funimation's behavior is weird, because for real, they're entirely fucking optional, we don't exactly need them, we don't need their shitty services. All we have to do is makes this into a real hot mess, let the people know what Funimation really thinks of their fans and shit might actually happens. Seriously, have you read the PR blog post? Are they taking us for imbeciles? This is the most fucking non-answer I've ever seen man, no solutions, nothing. Just the usualy PR deflecting blame "Durr we disassociate us from this", like, what? "We didn't officially sanction it, we just recorded it in our studios, approved it for airing, and streamed it on our official site, but we didn't officially sanction it." They're really taking us for the ride here, Funimation clearly does not think much of you if all they had to release is this load of shit.

Fuck, I actually like buying DVD/BDs of shows I like (in a language I can understand and that doesn't cost a fucking arm), I don't want to go shop on google to see who did what now because we didn't care enough to curb this shit before it became cancerous. We might be able to do something… Or nothing might happens, but we'll never know until we fucking try.

So please, do care, we might be able to make this work, also who knows what kind of funny shit is going to come from this

Thank you

Nah. Waste of time.

>>283275

Well, no UN meeting, but more stupid Gamedropping in anime and increasingly shittier dubs by people who very clearly don't care about the medium.

BTW, the head writer Jamie Marchi seems to be a big SJW, dropping lines on twitter like this: https://archive.is/c79On She also follows Wu and FemFreq on Twitter.

So yeah…

The big question is, how worse can it get? I mean, you already have these three fucks trolling fans on twitter for 4+ days and right now, they seems to be completely getting away with it, if they get away with it, everything is fair game.

I already heard Anime News Network is already pretty SJW, the big question is what's next? Infiltrating subs? (That is, if they haven't already on some releases)…

It can definitively get worse from here and I don't want to know how worse can it get but instead how better can it possibly get if this becomes big, so get e-mailing, comment, share, whatever, don't let this fall unheard

Got a few good comments there on KiA, there's someone there who unsubbed from the site because of this. Man, did I post it at a bad time or something? I swear my thread asking if this should be an OP a few days ago got like 250 upvotes at least

As for what now … The big problem is that I can't really post it anywhere else, it's just gonna get deleted

Someone on KiA suggested I post it there because they had a big thread on this and well, I'm most likely gonna get shut pretty quickly. I was planning to message their mods, but if the post doesn't gain any traction, that means no confidence…

Which is the problem, if you want the general anime fans to notice it, it needs to get bigger than that. Hell, if I managed to make it stickied here and on KiA, well, NicheGamer, Sankaku Complex and techraptors all articles about this, if it gets big, that potentially means they could do a follow up article on how the fans are e-mailing, giving it some rather big publicity, thus reaching more anime fans which means more e-mails

But it needs to gain traction in the first place

>>283283

*That I post it there

r/anime on Reddit, the thread I'm talking in question

https://archive.is/mXRAW

In fact look at most of the links in the OP, all fans aren't ok with what's going on, and generally (with the exception of ANN, and even there) there's also decent GG support there with people actually being able to write what it is about and what happened

Here's the Sankaku Complex story:

https://www.sankakucomplex.com/2015/10/04/funimation-gamergate-quip-inexcusable/

The crux of the matter is simple; FUNimation employees obviously have a contempt for their fans. And we saw what happened last time people with a contempt for their audience were able to fuck with things…

There should be some obvious professional standards about how a company interacts with its consumers. Having your employees openly mock your audience is s beyond unprofessional I can't think of a good name for it that isn't a flowery insult. These people lack any semblance of professionalism, and they're part of the largest company in this market.

Even if you're a sub snob, it's obvious the implications this can have for the anime market in the US if employees of licensing companies are allowed to treat their audience this way. No self respecting company would allow their employees to keep their jobs after a social media nightmare like this.

This needs to be stamped out now before it's allowed to spread.

>>283265

Underrated post.

I give it five stars. We need folks like you who are willing to tell people the truth.

>>283348

https://archive.is/SbkI9

So you haven't been paying attention, then?

>>283349

that's hilarious, actually.

>>283351

And he's absolutely right, too.

But he's not the one who should have said it.

That's like a McDonald's employee calling a customer a fatass. Yeah, he's probably right, but he should still be fired for doing that.

>>283348

Read the links, pretty much everyone in the various links are posted, in also non-GG places are not ok with this at all

Not only that, but they didn't only went after GGers either, they majorly insulted fans, GG or not, and a lot of people Tyson was arguing on Twitter (and retwitting) aren't in GG at all.

>>283353

No

That's fucking retarded.

If people are being assholes to you, you can be assholes back.

>>283354

I did read it.

The people who criticize it wouldn't buy FUNi's shit dubs anyway, so in essence, they're irrelevant to FUNi because they're not their customers to begin with

it's like a person saying "I'VE LOST RESPECT FOR YOU" or "YOU JUST LOST A SALE" when they had no intention of having respect for that person or buying from them in the first place.

I don't buy it.

>>283355

Not if you're speaking to your company's customers.

and accusing them of endorsing rape.

And responding to customer complaints with "I have no fucks to give" Spider Man memes. Also seen in the links you didn't read.

>>283355

Try this in most jobs, you'll be fired pretty damn quickly

I maybe would've dropped this if it was a one time incident, but Tyson has going at it for 4+ days straight. Just go through his wall, he pretty much retweeted the whole goddamn thing. He's still retweeting inflammatory remarks, there's no reasons for this other than public shaming and mobbing fans of them

>>283356

If that's your assessment, no, you didn't read anything.

Look at the responses to FUNi's statement. Lots of cancelled subscriptions. People on twitter sharing photos of FUNimation releases they've bought along with saying FUNi will be losing a customer over their handling of this.

Sub-obsessed /a/tards do not reflect the bulk of people who are pissed about this.

>>283362

I do, actually. This, however, is not a creative field in the sense of, say, a comic book artist or game developer. Fucking actors can get booted from their jobs for what they say on social media.

>>283365

I did buy from them in the past, actually. Glad that you somehow magically know the truth behind all these people, though. How you're not making millions with a power like that I'll never understand.

>>283362

I buy from Funi. Go fuck yourself, pathetic devil's advocate tripfag.

>>283369

*avatar fag

>>283371

nigga you aint even trying now

>>283373

All I'm saying is I don't buy that you bought from FUNi in the past 5 years.

>>283372

The last thing I bought from Funi was Wanna Be Strongest in the World Blu-ray set. I finished it just as this bullshit happened. This is the GamerGate forum, you moron. We're consumers.

>>283375

You hang around /a/ too much.

>>283365

Except I do actually buy from them, other GGers does too

>>283362

Also, hence why it needs to get going and get popular, the big problem is, as it stand right now, I cannot post the operation anywhere, not in /a/, not in r/anime and such without it getting deleted ASAP, if this takes off, people will hear of this and discussion will be had about this in these places and hopefully, the places who talked about it, will also talk about it, hence informing the other legion of pissed off anime fans

Either way, it's time to go to bed, I contacted a few people on Twitter, but I seriously doubt anyone is gonna tweet about it at all.

If anyone can please share https://www.red*dit.com/r/KotakuInAction/comments/3nmkcv/misc_op_baddub_email_funimation_about_the_prison/

and this thread here around, it will help majorly.

Thanks guys for caring

>>283365

Also where is your evidence that the script writer isn't a third party contractor?

>>283379

Contractor or not, it doesn't matter at all. He can still get shit and not get hired anymore and Funimation will still be in deep shit

>>283380

That's what I did. Anything helps, DVD, BD, merchandise licensed by them, past/current subs

>>283379

I never said that.

You have me confused with someone else.

>>283383

It ain't about the line. It's about the tweets.

>>283385

Dude I JUST SAID

if it affects FUNi's bottom line, it will be dealt with.

But it won't, because GG is small.

Just being honest.

>>283386

It ain't just GamerGate bothered by this. Even the Daily Dot couldn't defend this, and now Sankaku Complex and their army of uber-weebs is pissed.

>>283386

Hence why it needs to get bigger and known, so that the other anime fans join in one way or another

One article and it will spread like hot stuff

But seriously, wtf is this defeatist attitude, at least fucking try, christ. Go shill elsewhere

>>283391

Considering the dud guesses you've been making about who here buys what, forgive me if I have a hard time taking your "realist" bitching seriously.

Don't like the campaign? This board's got a lot of threads for you to shill in.

>>283391

It's just people trying to be edgy, considering the climate there, I wouldn't be surprised if a good number of people actually like to watch "GOOD" dubs

Do you know why they don't watch dubs? Because the dubs that Funimation … specially Funimation, makes sucks dicks

Plus anyways, there's a shitloads of stuff to get back at Funimation. Their streaming player is awful, the audio is bad, the colors are bad. Fuck, even pirating the thought of pirating their shit is abhorrent.

This is a little more than just a shitty dub m8, this is an opportunity to stir shit and show them to not fuck around their customers, there's absolutely nothing to lose

>>283393 *[…] actually like to watch "GOOD" dubs but shut up about it

I myself like a good dub, unfortunately, I ain't getting that with with these retards messing so much with the script

Fuck, at this point, why do these idiots even bother with dubs if they're gonna do them this half-assed? I'd rather be able to pay a little less for my shit than more because they did a shit dub

>>283391

Ziggler is a fucking shill. Don't listen to anything ID: faa051 says. He's with the faggots who tried to fuck over this forum.

>>283398

already explained myself there

I don't do that anymore and I post here in good faith.

>>283391

just shut the fuck up already

>>283400

Honestly, I've NEVER seen you say anything that wasn't toal devil's advocacy here. Yes, you like cameralady, but that's the only thing over several fucking months.

Your head is in your ass over this one. "Sankaku Complex, GG is not the customer base." It's a fucking ecchi show by Arms. Are you so insane that you think SJW shit goes over well with fans of titty anime?

Also you're argument blows. Funi will or will not make it's money back on the phyiscal release. It's not 1999 anymore. The subs and the dub are on the same fucking disc. This could fuck up their profit margin for sure.

ALSO, it's a simul-cast dub. THEY CHANGE THOSE DUBS ALL THE TIME BEFORE THEY GET ON THE DISC. Not doing anything now would be pure idiocy. You are advocating for self-defitism.

>>283404

guess we'll have to see once the BD comes out, right?

And besides, changing the dub (as some shows are wont to do) before the BD release will probably placate most people and they won't lose money.

I'm just not buying that they'll lose money on this one. And neither is FUNi.

>>283409

>>283409

Another thing about you expecting them to announce firing this guy. These people are probably third party contractors. Third party contractors don't get "fired," they just don't receive more work after the current contract i sup. From what I've heard, Funi has done this before with people with bad reputations with fans. So even if they don't announce him getting axed, that doesn't mean it won't be the same result.

>>283409

Sankaku Complex taking a shit on them over it I think helps my argument. Like was mentioned in KIA, they already reference Sankaku Complex in trailers for fanservice anime because they know they're drawing from that audience.

>>283411

Who was it that they didn't rehire because of fan reaction?

>>283383

>It's ultimately one line in a 12 episode series and it doesn't matter.

Were you paying attention at all, nigger? The ENTIRE DUB is like this, even in that very same line, there's a second Family Guy-tier popculture reference.

If pissing off GamerGate is the spark that lights a fire under western otakudom's feet, if that turns out to be what it takes to get dub translations back on the rails, I can't imagine why any dub viewer would disagree with us.

>>283413

>>283429

>Sankaku Complex

There really shouldn't be anyone that dosen't use it as a first stop for everything japan.

>>283443

They should get some ads up in here,they could use traffic and we could use the moey

>>283234

We said the same thing about Anita sarkeesian and well look what happen

>>283637

She went to the UN to whine about getting called a liar and support the arguments of Lyndon LaRouche. She made herself a laughingstock on the international political stage.

Sounds good to me.

>>283640

True though lets face it she has too much influence whether it be intel, google or even egoraptor (though I think Arin is a bad example) she still influences those with influence

I'm baffled as to why people conform to her ideology

Even if this OP failed, if there's a silver lining, we know now that FUNi won't let them pull a stunt like this again, and will likely never live this down.

Tyson Rinehart can probably never show his face at a con again.

Even if this OP failed, if there's a silver lining, we know now that FUNi won't let them pull a stunt like this again, and will likely never live this down.

Tyson Rinehart can probably never show his face at a con again.

>>284156

Lets hope this OP doesn't fail

>>284356

Ehhh, it pretty much failed. This place is also much smaller than I remembered.

So yeah, if you want to try again, be my guest. Perhaps it will be more popular with different wording or something. I wrote pretty much the whole plan in the linked KiA thread.

If someone already has the tools for video editing, this could be a good idea to make and upload:

chairman's voice: https://youtu.be/4VQol9aEBtI?t=135 same scene in Japanese (https://youtu.be/X2t7nxJVulY?t=129

https://youtu.be/4VQol9aEBtI?t=623 listen to andre's voice in English, in Japanese https://youtu.be/X2t7nxJVulY?t=619

And there's so much more wrong with the dub, seriously it's really bad. If someone could make a really good comparison video and retry to make a more convincing operation on KiA, this might very well catch on. Hell, the video itself could be pretty good for anime fans in general to share, just include the e-mails in description

>>284461

Holy shit, this imbecile might actually be the guy that could very well revive the operation. I shamelessly linked my old OP in the comments, but if someone is willing to post a new better one, this guy is perfect for it

>>284477

>Using the word imbecile

I love you.

Also, checked.

>>284461

Wow, cause Twitter followers means you aren't shit at doing your job.

>>284461

Yeah, but who the hell follows scriptwriters in the first place? That's not going to bring back the sales/subscriptions you lost, and it certainly isn't gaining any sales/subscriptions.

This the first I've heard of this.

"Anthony Fonzarelli"?

Are they serious? Does he realise the demographics for anime aren't 50 year olds? What's an out-of-touch, old guy like him doing writing scripts for anime?

Also, how popular are anime dubs or this person in general to warrant an OP. I was thinking because anime dubs weren't popular they can just fuck around with the script like they did here.

>>284738

Dude, more people are watching dubs than subs. /a/ is not the majority, the majority is the average person who gets their anime from TV or Hulu/Netflix.

>>284734

>>284734

>This.

>

>Pretty sure he picked up a bunch of aGGros and other assorted SJW faggots that don't watch anime, let alone buy it.

Not to mention ecchi shows about huge boobs. This entire situation is so absurd it's killing my brain cells.

>>284732

Well, he is a voice actor too, but outside of Daru in Steins;Gate (who is his biggest role), he seems to mostly voice nobodies with barely any screen time.

But yes indeed, who the hell follows unimportant voice actor/script writer?

>>284856

I completely disagree here, as I said earlier, even the biggest of noobs, the people who actually care about anime outside of maybe randomly picking one up on Netflix once in a blue moon, actually know where to pirate them and most definitively does not care about dubs (mostly because they're shit)

The actual people where the money is doesn't care about their crap dubs, mostly because they're crap. No randoms is gonna buy DVD/BD and various merchandises

>>283348

Except this isn't just about GG, it's about mistranslating the dialog to shoehorn in a bad joke. They show contempt for all of their fans by not doing their job properly.

>write them an email on their site

>first time I've ever done this after lurking gamergate since the beginning

>submit

>520 error

Shit. Well I've got it copied. Will submit it later. It's just about how I'm a GITS fan and am concerned about this kind of shoehorning could in the dub of ARISE borders 3 and 4.

I know arise is shit, but I collection GITS shit.

>>284968

>Elfen Lied

>K-on

>missing FMP Second Raid

>DVDs

Get it together, anon.

>>284985

I usually buy DVD versions if the BD version is just an upscale. Except for Panty & Stocking, because the fuckers only released the BD version after I already bought the DVDs.

>missing FMP Second Raid

>Get it together, anon.

I can't very well fix that mistake while I'm boycotting Funimation, anon. :^)

>>284968

This collection is tiny. I have an entire wall.

>>284988

I'm not pretending I have a huge collection, just proving that I am one of their customers.

>>284989

I should e-mail them, but like I said in the other thread, I'm autistic about this stuff due to having bad experiences being in contact with official representatives before, and that ruining it for me, and I'm very invested in some of the shows I bought from them. So if anyone else can please spread the message to them for me please do so.

>>284992

I just like animu. Seriously, you think I was going to watch cucked American TV again after I discovered it?

>>284987

I'm waiting on a backorder for DBZ Kai volumes 1 and 2, and the movie collection. They only sent me volumes 3 and 4, but I'm going to cancel the order and aggravate my autism if they keep this shit up.

>>284995

What do you mean bad experiences? Did they shit talk your waifu, or is it some bad customer service in general?

>>284999

I had money stolen by a roadie of a band I liked a lot, and one of the band members was standing right there when it happened. It kind fucked me up as far as listening to their music again, so I'm careful about that stuff now. I mean if they're pricks to me, I'm going to get mad about that every time I watch the fucking DVDs I have. You have to understand. lol

>>284998

You should cancel them and just pirate the episodes. Put some fake labels on empty DVD cases next to the other volumes if it helps your autism. They aren't worth your money.

>>285003

They would probably solve this problem if they just said they were removing the line. It's really absurd. I just spent a lot of money on Sentai Filmworks and Eastern Star releases instead until they get this shit sorted out.

>>285004

They should definitely change the line, but I want to see Tyson Rinehart fired before I consider doing business with them again. There is no way I'm buying from a company that lets one of their employees insult their customers like that.

>>285005

Is he employed by them or a third party contractor? That's what I'm confused about. I would assume these people are not regular hires, but I could be wrong.

>>285006

All of the anime he is credited for are licensed by Funi, so I assume he works for them.

>>283362

Considering that Funi basically holds licenses to almost all of the anime being broadcasted outside Japan since last year, you're speaking right out of your ass. Nobody gets to choose to not buy from Funi because they have majority of licenses held hostage in their monopoly. So fuck off Zigglercuck

>>285017

Support Sentai Filmworks. They're trying to gain a better position in the market recently. They announced like 5 new licenses in the past week. They used be number 1 as ADV.

Also, I found a pretty good tweet:

https://archive.is/VTEem

>"Use your voice on something that actually matter"

This looks like some good shit to send to a CEO as the guy is saying their jobs and fans concerns doesn't matter

But yeah, I got some interest from people in the new KiA thread about Tyson gloating about his twitter numbers so I PM'd the KiA mods. I got one reply, guy was concerned this was witch hunting/dogpiling, which is not, as I'd rather people to go e-mail than contact Tyson. Never got a reply back, jeez, these guys are useless

>>284973

There's the feedback, PR and CEO e-mail up there too. But of course, try to send it to support later

>>285001

This is e-mail man, they can't hurt you and they definitively won't even answer you man.

Keep emailing them

Also is there a KotakuinAction thread on this?

>>287446

Nothing says anime like the fonz!

I mean, was Duo from Gundam Wing not the Arthur Fonzarelli of his day?

>>287991

Send them an e-mail to tell them you'll purchase their products again if they stop this kind of stuff.

>>283220

Where's the gamergate reference in this example?

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CPpiqL4UEAA6GRv.png

>>288018

A guy was communicating with a girl and wasn't self flagellating, therefore he's a rapist, therefore Gamergate somehow.

I remember with DBZ kai they tried to be as close to the manga as possible, with Chris Sabat being in charge of voice acting.

How very odd.

>>288135

Not every dub they do is bad, but they've gotten complacent in their current status and now they're treating their customers like shit.

And if Twitter's anything to go by their buddies are circling the wagons and going after people for pirating. Podcasts who are buddy-buddy with FUNi regulars are now making statements about supporting official releases. Pretty curious…

>>288041

I don't think it even comes close to answering my question… in fact it just proves this has nothing to do with GG at all.

>>288454

You're aware that was the real translation and not FUNi's line, right?
