Sailor Moon Abridged

This pokes a lot of fun at the dub, right? (The anime in general, yes, but some of the jokes won't be as funny without knowledge of the dub, right?)

I've seen two "abridged anime" episodes of another series. And if you weren't at least slightly familiar with the dub, it wasn't as funny.

If you're interested, it was Yugioh the Abridged series. I'd seen the entire HK bootleg machine translated version (If you don't know a little Japanese, I'd stay away from the Yugioh "fansub". It's wildly inaccurate in many areas, but it's just accurate enough that if you have a basic Japanese understanding, you can figure out what's really being said. The Yami no Game arc, however, is done by real fansubbers, and is pretty accurate. It's known as Season "0" by many American fans due to the lack of a dub release and because it's out of continuity with the Duel Monsters version.)

One of the jokes was poking fun at Jounouchi (Joey's) dub "Brooklyn" accent. If you don't know that Joey has a brooklyn accent, the joke won't be nearly as funny.

I'd say it pokes SOME fun at the dub, but it doesn't bash it or anything. Just a few things here or there.

That's what the Yugioh Abridged series did as well. It was nowhere near bashing, but some jokes just weren't as funny if you weren't somewhat familiar with the dub. (Jounouchi/Joey's "hard to concentrate while doing a brooklyn accent" line was hilarious! XD)

ohhh Venus, yeah I can't wait to see what they do to her, I hope she is either a super slut stuck up b!tch or the complete opposite of Raye and is a very holy religious and mostly ignorant girl.

I hope they go with I'm Your Venus as her transformation song, I thought it flowed really well lol
