I'm having such a fun time reading through all these con reports you linked.

Also, I find it utterly hilarious that Asuka's VA of all people ships Kawoshin~ XD

The German DVD will also be out in december; It will be interesting to compare the interpretations of both dub crews.

You gotta say "Hi," offer her a drink, talk about the character... it's like going out drinking, really.

Well, in all seriousness, Brina Palencia deliberately knows nothing about Rei or Evangelion. McFarland specifically told her not to watch it.

I like that she turned into an AGGRESSIVE lesbian. A welcome change.

The Dub's already made?! And it would be shown at that showing in Comic-con! ... that was quick. And now, to wait till early 2014 for its Blu-ray/DVD release (assuming that it would follow the earlier film's American releases)

Is that why Rei's dub is tuned 300% too much feelz from the original Japanese VA...? I know Rei is supposed to be more emotionally aware and expressive in the Rebuilds... But it was weird to see her in 2.0 to go from the Japanese inflections and tonality where the emotion is "surfacing" but still somewhat subdued to how she was practically overflowing with emotion in english (with a dash of melancholy)

I don't know, but I thought Palencia's performance was a lot closer to what Hayashibara did in the original, at least compared to the series dub.

Most of the dubs seem to have gone with that typical "monotone soldier lady" voice, but I remember when I first took a look at the original version, I was surprised how Rei's voice was a lot different from AWL or Whathername, whoever did the original German version.

It never was that "emotionless" to begin with.

Rei's shtick has always been that she experiences emotions but doesn't really know what they are/how to deal with them either through expression or repression. The audience is supposed to be hearing that through her minimal dialogues and actions.

So of course I agree that it wasn't supposed to be emotionless. But there's a continuum between whisper and screaming and I'm saying that I was surprised that her dub was leaning a tad too close to the loud end for my liking. Just a personal thing.

It's also not always about tone, volumn, and inflection - I thought that Rei's dialogue was always "less is more" when it came to how many words she spoke; kind of keeps up the mysterious factor. Watching the Big Z/Rei N2 bomb scene, as well as the aquarium fishies scene in Japanese and then in English (i watched the clips from Funimation on youtube) I thought she could have been a bit more concise to retain her overall demeanor while conveying that she's got emotions going on.

I wonder how well Spike is going to pull of Shinji in this movie....

I once read some fan interview where the interviewer essentially spoiled for her with what happens in NGE ("In the original NGE, Rei is revealed to be the Angel Lilith...etc") :facepalm:

I think it's best she doesn't know what happens in NGE though, since NME is a different continuity anyway.

If I'm remembering right, he sounded rather subdued during his final EoE talk with Misato, so hopefully he can bring that back for the important parts of 3.0.

ElMariachi · Postby **ElMariachi** » Sat Oct 05, 2013 3:08 pm

What I'm curious to see is Misato's VA performance, she has to dub the character who got through the most changes by Q, so that will be interesting to see how she will pull it off.

Toonsis · Postby **Toonsis** » Sat Oct 05, 2013 3:37 pm

I've gotta say, my interest is extremely piqued to witness how well Misato's voice actress handles the seemingly drastic change her character has undergone.

Yep, that's what I'm looking forward to the most in the dub as well. "Captain Katsuragi"

Kendrix · Postby **Kendrix** » Sat Oct 05, 2013 4:10 pm

Another thing, besides the changes, that makes Misato (and Shinji) challenging for Q are their highly controversial actions; People will be picking around in all of their quotes; Just a little bit of nuance and inflection could make a huge difference in how they're percieved.

It's a good thing that (at least in the english dub), both of them have returning/old school actors.
They were both quite convincing in 2.0.

I'm kinda worried about the German Rebuild actress...

They brought back Allison Keith. I'm on board the hype train.

Looking forward to Evangelion.3.33.Dub.NYCC.CAM.TeleSync.XviD.CoOlDuDeScEnE.torrent

But really, I can't wait for the dub. I don't feel like I've really "seen" the show until I see the dub. I watched the original series in English, and to me Spike Spencer is Shinji.

At some point, I'm sure. Probably closer to when they'll release 3.33 on DVD/BD. This was the release trailer for 2.22. (...No comment.) Also, these teasers.

Postby **hui43210** » Sat Oct 05, 2013 10:55 pm

Yep, they just showed off the Wolf Children dub trailer, so expect an 3.33 trailer sometime after a release date is out.

As for the poster who said Spike Spencer is Shinji.... Yep, I feel the same way. I haven't admitted this but 3.0 was the first time I watched a full Eva film/ep in the Japanese dub, altho I knew who the VA's are and seen many clips on youtube beforehand. So ya, I'm much more acclimatized the English voices, even tho the EoE dub was kinda shit at times.
