Just think - in 2026, this will be the kind of quality control you *must* pay money to see! I'm sure the ad-tier users will have complete confidence to upgrade after seeing this!
At the 5:19 minute mark of SPY X FAMILY Episode 47, the video and audio completely glitch out and get stuck in a silent, 1 second loop while the subtitle track continues along. Please fix, @crunchyroll.com!

But Prime 4 is absolutely gorgeous, that can't be denied. The lightning motorcycle factory is fucking rad.

Okay, so, Myles Mackenzie. Does he ruin Metroid Prime 4? No. However, his inclusion is still not *good* nor fitting of the Metroid series for a couple of reasons. And neither of those reasons is his Whedonistic dialogue (which is only vaguely so).

It did not escape me that the bad guys in Zootopia 2 were ostracizing an entire group of animals under the auspices of property expansion for the ICE biome, and neither should it escape you.

[continuing from last RT] It's hard to pick a favorite but just looking at Chris Sabat in general, he's delivered some of the most pure, soulful moments in *many* a dub in my lifetime. Like Kikuchiyo's impassioned speech from Samurai 7 www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eh9r...

Yes. There are men (and women!) who hold puritanical beliefs that a woman's sole worth is making successors for their man and then shutting down all activity save for housework.
But realistically I don't think these folks care about the implications of certain tags. They just want all smut purged.

Still tripping over the notion that milfs are taboo.
Like what? Once she pops a baby she's spent? After the first kid men don't like to fuck their wives anymore?
Milfs are literally the most vanilla heteronormative "fetish" that has ever been.
What a buncha sexless gonads.

I logged into my Fakku account and can confirm the tags “incest,” “tentacles,” “milf,” “loli,” “shota,” and “forced” lead to the following page. The notice regarding payment processing is obviously worrying. I reached out to Jacob to see if he can give any insight. More updates in this thread

Is it Whamageddon and not Mariagnarok so that the game is at least somewhat winnable?

Let me give some insight on this, as a producer in the dub industry who worked with major streamers, who's witnessed first-hand where this push for AI is coming from.
tl;dr: Only CEOs want this. Tell them how much you hate it. Be loud, email, call, @, post. You will kill this.

The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them
A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.
