Welcome to the Cave of Dragonflies guestbook.
…what? Recommending you watch a fansub rather than the dub is not offensive towards people who choose not to do so. o_O This makes even less sense than being offended at the word "terrible".
I meant that you say I must watch a fansub.I watch dub,terrible or not.
Um, what? How is "Or, more specifically, go watch a fansub, because the dub is terrible" offensive towards dub fans? And not just offensive, but "so offensive"? It's an opinion on the dub of the episode, using one single mundane negative adjective. How the hell am I supposed to write reviews if mundane negative adjectives explicitly directed towards the product are somehow fan-bashing?
Aside from that, I am referring to the dub of this particular episode containing ridiculous edits including cutting out the ending and randomly changing a character's sex. Even if you enjoy the dubbed version, which is quite possible and I don't blame you for, it's still a terrible dub because there is no justification for making such disrespectful or detrimental changes to the work you are supposedly translating. Of course everyone ought to watch the original when the dub cheats you out of a couple of great scenes for no reason whatsoever. In other words, it's not even that the dubbed episode is terrible; it's that the dub of the episode terrible.
Opinions is one thing, fan-bashing is another.
(Then again, I haven't read the review, soo….)
(Ooh, Uxie spammy.)
That's just her opinion. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
Butterfree,could you please be not so offensive to dub fans in the "Conclusion" part of the Legend of Thunder review?
Ranculus >>> Gochiruzeru
Very much so.
ELECTRIKE SPAMMY
He is probably referring to the fact the region has been renamed to Unova for the English version.

I have an Internet connection at home again. \o/
I've been looking around, trying to find/remember the IRC network many of y'all hang out on so I can stop and say hello, but I've had no luck.
In case I'm not welcome, though, just tell me.
God, the water-starter's name whatever-the-hell is horrible. Its evolutions even worse. And I will MURDER someone if Bachuru's English name suck like the starters do. I agree with Sarah: The names have gone downhill. But that's what they said about the fourth-gen pokemon, right?
Losing a battle due to poison when your opponent's last Pokémon has one HP left is really not fun :(
So sorry about the triple (?!) post! I've been having problems with my computer and double-clicking… but three?
@ Alpha: Since when was Pokemon not a kids' show? XD But personally, I agree with you. English names have been going downhill.
Eagerly awaiting the next chapter of TQFTL, ILCOE version. Also, a toast to all those who fail at submitting error report forms! :'D I love this site.
The "shi" in Reshiram (like "shi" is in general in Japanese) is pronounced pretty much like "she".
Oh my gosh! I am so sorry for the double post! But, I meant the names never meant much to me anyway. I usually nicknamed my Pokemon whatever the heck I want.
Well, I kind of like the starter names. I'll live with it. I never did care much for the names, but Snivy? It makes Pokemon sound like a kids show. "Hey kids, are you ready to see Snivy the [insert animal here]!
"Ye-es!!!1one1!!!1o31one!!!"
But, I am wondering one thing. Is the I in Reshiram's name a long I or a short I? Or, did they just leave it up to me to start a flame war over which is better.
Rankurusu (the blob) is in White. I say so because you seem to be implying that Gochizeru (Gaga) is better than Rankurusu, so you should get White. Since White has Rankurusu, that is nonsensical.
If, however, you were saying Rankurusu > Gochizeru, then I agree.
