Chinese tokusatsu "Armor Hero" official English Dub
Yup. That's right. Official English Dub. It's not as bad as you might think going in to it.

Must watch!

Intresting.
|
It even has an English theme song!

Then you had to go and say that. Now I gotta see it :lol |
The one thing I like right off the bat - there's tone change in the dub. And by that I mean, it doesn't sound like someone is reading off a script all mono-tone. It's like they're actually trying to make the words match the scene.
Downside? Total Kamen Rider Dragon Knight syndrome, of quiet-fights (ie: no hiyaa, kiyaaa, etc.) ... just silence with a beat in the background. |
Only watch a bit cause it's late, but as far as dubs on live action go it okay. To be honest I keep forgetting about Armor Hero, but now I think I will give it an shot since it is on youtube

Ordinarily, I'm quite alright with subtitles, it's second nature to me and never been an issue... until the first time I watched Armor Hero. I don't know if it was the because of the subbing group's scripts or the disparity between spoken Chinese and written English, but something felt wrong and it bothered me enough to not finish the series. An English dub could be just the thing to let me get through the series this time! It's a very pleasant surprise to read this and demonstrates a step up from what Toei has offered in the past (nada!).

I will definitely check this out for a few episodes. I love the way the toys look (if only I could find them...) so I've been itching to see the series.

After watching about 8 minutes, I can say that the dubbing isn't bad.
Not good, mind you, but I've heard worse dubs. The funny thing? It really feels like Kamen Rider, with it's opening (Not the song, but the opening scene) and basic set up. I haven't gotten to any fights, but if what Kickback said is true, that's unfortunate. |
