Yeah it was pretty bad. Especially since it was a caricature of AMERICAN black people and the actor is German, raised in Japan since he was two, according to wikipedia. So they were definitely putting their own spin on his dialogue.

On the other hand I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. The actor's performance as Caitsith was pretty exaggerated, you could tell just from his vocal performance. So maybe they were just trying to convey that and misjudged the appropriateness of their interpretation. Have they made any comment on the issue?

Overall I prefer TV Nihon just because their site seems a little easier to navigate and mp4s run better on my computer than wmvs. But I'll still get the Over-ti.me subs just because they do them faster. Everything older I'm watching from TVN.
