thought you said the NHK dub was decent?
And yes i agree with that you said, thats why i cant stand anything viz dubs. But yes while One Piece was casting for the new dub. Toei had a say in it aswell, but i think thats jus because thats there best show and didnt want it getting ripped apart again lol.
I would like to see an american show dubbed in jp.

Nope, I haven't even heard the dub for Welcome to the NHK. I know Chris Patton voices Satou though, and he was amazing in Guyver. Although his character in Guyver and his character in NHK are very different, I doubt I'd like him in Welcome to the NHK. I think Chris Patton is a good voice actor sometimes, but I've heard some dubs from him which are just terrible.

Damn you, give me my editing time back. Guess I'll have to post again...
I just remembered that Chris Patton also voiced the main character in The Place Promised in Our Early Days, which he was good in. His role in The Place Promised in Our Early Days and Guyver are quite comparable comparable though, while Satou requires very different acting. I fear Chris Patton would probably make the character more emotional than he should be. Satou doesn't have real emotion, he has a kind of strange, insane, misunderstood emotion. I read an interview with Patton talking about his role as Satou a while back and he mentioned the fact he used to be a shut in really helped him in his dub role. A normal person might think thats a good, positive comment, but that is bad. He shouldn't be using knowledge gained due to his life experiences to bring out Satou's character. Satou is nothing like a normal hikkikomori, and can't be anything like Chris Patton was when he was a shut in. Chris Patton seemed to understand the emotional side of hikkikomori's - good - but that's not how Satou should be acted. Although I'm saying all this without having listened to the dub, I could be very wrong.
Anyway, that's just how I feel about Chris Patton voicing Satou. He maybe has it in him, but to me it seemed like he took the wrong approach.

I heard good things about it and it sounds good as well. I've never seen it though. I have seen a few AMVs however. :8 It looked good in those as well. Let me know if it is actually any good if you decide to watch it.
