Okay, let's talk about something potentially controversial. It's about a show filled with zombies and high school drama.
Yep, I'm talking about All Of Us Are Dead.
The Dub That Dared
Specifically, I want to discuss the English dub. I know, I know. Subtitles are often considered superior.
But hear me out!
A Controversial Opinion (Maybe?)
I actually loved the English dub. And I'm not ashamed to admit it.
Don't get me wrong, the original Korean acting is fantastic. But sometimes, I just want to chill.
And reading subtitles during a zombie apocalypse? Stressful.
Plus, there's something strangely hilarious about hearing lines like, "We're so screwed!" in perfectly American English. While surrounded by zombies.
The contrast is just...chef's kiss.
I will quote from the great minds of the internet:
"The English dub of All of Us Are Dead is unironically good. Fight me."
Relatable High Schoolers (Even in English)
The dub made the characters even more relatable. Think about it: angsty teens dealing with zombies. And puberty.
The voice actors captured the awkwardness perfectly. The screaming? On point.
The dub allowed me to focus on the ridiculous situations. Like, hiding in a toilet stall from the undead.
I could also pay more attention to the visuals. All the blood and guts needed my full attention!
The subtle (and not-so-subtle) nuances in the zombie makeup. The details in the school setting, all worth noticing without the distraction of subtitles.
Embrace the Dub!
Look, I'm not saying the subtitles are bad. Not at all. They're great.
But the dub offers a different experience. A more...laid-back, brain-dead (pun intended) experience.
So, next time you're watching All Of Us Are Dead, give the English dub a try. You might be surprised.
You might even find yourself enjoying it more than you thought. Just don't blame me if you start quoting it.
It's just fun seeing Lee Byeong-chan’s plan fall apart in your native tongue!
Let's be honest, sometimes subtitles feel like homework.
So, grab some snacks, settle in, and embrace the wonderfully cheesy English dub of All Of Us Are Dead.
Who knows? You might even join me on team "dub is actually pretty good."
