Dir en Grey - Obscure

Well I was out getting gifts for my friends at "Best Buy" and thought why not check out the anime section. I got to it and the first thing I see is this flowery DVD box I read the title and said "SHUT UP!!!!" about everyone walking by and in that section heard me. I knew that it was coming out soon but didnt pay any thought to it since I have the Japanese version. I thougt why not have the English one to. Price was a little high for me but it did come with two dvds with 1-13 ep. like paying 21 bucks for two dvds. I loved the Japanese version so much I thought they couldnt have mess this one up since its was a very big hit in Japan when it showed.

Characters/ actors...vv;


Well for those who have not spend their hard working money...save it! The dub was a wast of time it took me a hole dvd to get over some of the voices! the actors were so off! they didnt in my view fit most of the characters at all. they didnt seem they had life in them at all. some eps were not so bad as others. the Kings voice was okay not bad but still on the rough side. Mori didnt talk much so he was okay deep voice. Honey was not sweet as the Japanese version and was a miss for me. Kyo was a hit at times and a miss the outtakes in the 2nd dvd with him were funny. Haru was a very big miss! I cant even say much on how hard it was to watch. and the Twins... what can I say...they are my fave but they didnt have that perfect fit with one another. made me want to cry a little.



So for those who have not seen it I would say watch it in Japanese! its the only way youll love it as much as I did. and those who have and care to take that step into the sad world of american voice dub I would say rent it and save your 42.99 for something better.
