Opinions From The Fans

June 10, 2007 The Necessity (or Lack Thereof) of Change A statement on change, what is essential when anime is dubbed, and the use of anime in the past as citations to back up the opinion. A well done essay straight off the Message Boards. January 20, 2007 Lost in Translation- A Researched Essay (WITH FACTS) Opposed to Anime Editing by Pitman Probably the biggest Opinion from the Fan to date- this guy interviewed doctors and everything!  The opinion itself is impressive enough but then the Works Cited page just made it that much more impressive.  Take a look-see.  If I would ever have to defend my opinion about anime in court I'd bring this guy.

August 25, 2004  "Manga vs. Anime vs. Dub Anime- Free-for-all" by Draconmouth In this great Opinion, Draconmouth explains to us that not only were there changes to Yuugiou when it was changed from manga to anime to dub anime, but when other series/movies are changed, something is lost or gained from/to them. You have to read this one, definitely. August 25th, 2004 "First Series Opinion" by SilverMoon229 I reached into the vault for this first Opinion.
