I was watching one of the dub comparison videos, and noticed this, uh, "interesting" shot that I hadn't paid much attention to before.

(click for 1.45MB :effort: gif, or just click the video above)

Parallax! :v:

(seriously though, most of the BG ponies look like cardboard cutouts in that shot, especially Raindrops)

The library is huge and that's not a very wide angle, but that's still a lot of parallax.

Dubs are always hit or miss. What I find funny is that Youtube CC in Spanish is spot on where as Youtube CC in English....not so much. :lol:

As expected, some jokes are lost in translations, some are given a totally new meaning.

Oh yeah, I'm not talking about the translation. It's just his voice screams "I'm boringly reading this piece of paper cause I only have 10 minutes to record this pony shit" :gotcha:

Why's that funny? The subtitles in that Spanish upload were added by the uploader, whereas YouTube generates its own subtitles from the audio when none are present, which is the raison d'être of that thread. (Real closed captioning has its own set of standards, as well, so these technically aren't CC, at least in the American usage of the term.)

I was unaware of this fact! I thought they both operated like Youtube CC in English does. It just never occurred to me.

Speech recognition isn't nearly that advanced just yet, let alone machine translation. Even if they were, it'd be impossibly unlikely that they'd produce the exact same lines from the original English.

Overall, I like the MLP Spanish dub but there is ONE thing that they really should fix. Get Pinkie a singing voice that matches her speaking, it's so goddamn jarring when her voice just changes to an older one out of nowhere and is probably really confusing to younger children.

The last season of Moral Orel has some really bummer episodes, but it's worth watching the whole series. It's really fantastic, and honestly the last season has just as many heartwarming moments as depressing ones (well maybe not "just as many" more like "some").

LYRA is the cool pony who likes to hang out. You can find most of the cool ponies with her. LYRA can just chill and do whatever and totally relax. "Take it easy" is the LYRA motto, for example, that's how laid back she is.

I can think of some things I hate.

Tuesday mornings, allergies, the awful fear-based state of American politics, Kamina's dubbed voice, how there hasn't been any game I can really get into in years, the stupid, gritty remakes of classic stories that make up so much of modern movies(Red Riding Hood? Really?), that guy in class who will scrape random things against each other/make his chair squeak loudly just to bother everyone, people who don't listen, nettles, when someone says "I WAS GOING TO TELL YOU SOMETHING, BUT FORGOT WHAT IT WAS", my own crippling motivation issues, how teachers in elementary school tell everyone that you will need to be able to write in cursive because your papers will apparently only be accepted in high school/college if they're written in it, how people complain about video games being too violent when we have a ratings system and parents buy 18+ games for their children anyways, etc. etc. etc.

I never learned how to read or write cursive =p But those things never made me hate anything, it just made life more interesting. I had the worst flu in my life that lasted a week, waking up in pools of sweat and everything, but I really didn't 'hate' that, it was a new experience and gave me a story to tell.

I try not to hate anything, I just try to look at it from a different angles.

There's a lot of things in that list I agree with you on, but holy shit whoever decided that we needed to learn Cursive Writing can go Image themselves. They should use that time on grammar. :glare:

I never realized how much the beginning of "Weird Woods" from Kirby's Epic Yarn sounds like the My Little Pony theme song.

Wow.

Speaking of things that sound like the My Little Pony theme song, someone on Ponychan pointed out that the opening riff of Relient K's "May the Horse Be with You" bears a suspicious resemblance as well. I never noticed until then and now I can't unhear it, and given the subject matter, I have a hard time believing it's a coincidence.
