He has also played a lot of characters who were more serious and less comedic when compared to the roles taken by Fukuyama. This should not be much of surprise as Bosch has more experience playing leading role’s. Some Japanese viewers believed that Johnny Young Bosch’s ( the English voice actor) performance as Lelouch Vi Britannia/Lamperouge was superior to Jun Fukuyama’s (the Japanese voice actor). A good example of this is with Code Geass. In fact, many times when a dubbing is done properly it can actually improve a product. Not only that but the audio syncing may not sync properly with the animation.ĭespite what purist may believe these changes do not automatically take away from the original message.
Cultural ideas in the original product may be removed, changing the context of a scene. This is due to the fact that there will be a different director, who is interpreting a different script, with a different set of voice actors. That no matter how well it is dubbed it will always be a misrepresentation of the original. Purist will say that the dubbing is always inferior to the original. This is why the debate over subbed versus dubbed becomes a heated discussion at times in the anime community. While on another make it understandable to a new audience.
On one end translators, must try to respect the artist’s original vision. They do not get to create art like a traditional artist does, due to having to maintain a delicate balance between interpretation and representation. That is why translators are a truly unique artist.
A direct one to one translation is nearly impossible no matter the language. This is due to certain words and ideas not existing in other languages. A lot of people believe that any translated anime should just be a one to one direct translation, but as anyone who is multilingual would surely explain to any monolingual individuals, translations cannot always be handled that way.
Translating any anime is always a difficult task because a translation is not a traditional art form. Are you a Sub or a Dub? Fans fight over which one is more faithful
