I had originally planned to watch Animax’s dub of K-On! yesterday but I totally forgot about it and ended up playing FF XIII (“Moms are tough”). However, I did manage to catch the 2nd half of episode two in a repeat telecast this morning (which unfortunately featured only the four main characters so I can’t comment on the rest). Please note that this is the Animax-Asia dub and not the US one (According to what I know, it hasn’t been licensed in the US yet…).
Thoughts: In general I thought the dubbing was pretty good though unremarkable (Maybe its just me since I prefer subs to dubs). Mio’s and Yui’s voice actresses were probably the ones which sounded the best. Ritsu’s and Mugi’s were good but less distinctive as compared to the previous two. No gripes with the script quality so far. In general, not perfect but a pretty good dub all round. I will probably get a better perspective once I get to hear more of Ui, Nodoka and Sawako-sensei as well as Azusa when she is introduced.
