I watched the entire prequel trilogy in Japanese. Completely changes the tone of all the movies, even the horrendous writing in Phantom Menace hit differently.
anakin is much better in it. Obi Wan isnt as good though cause his inflections go missing a lot of the time in the japanese dub. Worth a watch high though, makes everything really hype if you pretend its an anime
3:46 you can actually see how his eyes changed from vigorous, youthful glare into hollow husk filled with anger... Man, that is really heartbreaking to watch... Big points for effects during this scene.

@@briana7515 Except that’s not an anime trope. It’s a tokusatsu trope which isn’t surprising since Star Wars has been influenced by that tokusatsu director, Akira Kurosawa.
Yes, but I wish Anakin didn't use *"boku"* _(mainly used by boys)_ , but *"ore"* _(mainly used by late teens and men)_ when referring to himself. Especially since he's 21 years old in ROTS, and not a kid anymore.
@@ReonMagnum That and from what I’ve heard, “ore” is a less formal way of saying “I” when compared to the more polite “boku,” and can even make someone sound rather arrogant in certain contexts. And Anakin is anything but humble and formal for the majority of the time that you see him.
@@foreignroninl1555 Yes, that's why in Rurouni Kenshin, Kenshin refers to himself as "ore" when he's really angry. Normally he uses "sessha", which is a formal pronoun the Samurai use.
Also on that note, I can't help but wonder what it would be like if Kenshin was a Star Wars character. He'd probably be a former dark jedi assassin who joined the Jedi Order in an attempt to escape his former life, but he frequently finds himself in situations where he's on the verge of regressing fully into his old personality and becoming consumed by the Dark Side of the Force. As for translating his Hiten Mitsurugi Ryu kenjutsu over to the different forms of lightsaber combat, I haven't seen enough of his fighting style to make a proper assessment, but I know that the supplemental art of Trakata could be used in place of his training in Battojutsu.
As one great Russian RUclipsr said, "Prequel Trilogy works the best with Japanese dub. All the flaws of the trilogy are non-existent when you watch it like an Anime"
Let me explain why that is a problem. Anime is treated as something that’s inherently low quality. So saying it’s best to watch it as an anime is really an insult to the medium. It’s saying the prequels are bad and anime is bad and if it’s inherently bad it’s a shield from criticism. Netflix has been using it to avoid criticism for their awful cartoons for years by calling castelvania and dragons dogma anime. And is inherently You see it a lot in video game spaces. No recognizably Japanese game gets widespread praise it’s called anime and shoved to the side for western games. Only Mario, Zelda and dark souls get taken seriously for having aesthetic that don’t immediately show that they are Japanese
@@PunishedPrince The OP statement isn't an indication of quality, merely that Japanese suits the style of dialogue used in this film, which seems more stilted in English to many. In contrast, the Japanese delivery flows much better with the simplistic script.
You lived through it all. The original trilogy. The prequel trilogy. I was only 3 years old when I saw Revenge of the Sith, but even then, I knew I was watching something great. You must have had a blast growing up with Star Wars.
This actually works so well on a deep level because Star Wars is based in part on old Samurai movies, with the Jedi being based on Budhist monks. It feels right. Also never noticed his eyes slowly turn yellow as he looks up at Obi-Wan at the end, you can see the anger, hatred, but also sadness, pain and fear all take over.
The emotion is captured much better with the Japanese dub. When Obi-Wan tells Anakin "Don't try it" you can hear that Obi-Wan isn't angry, just desperate to avoid hurting Anakin, and you can hear that much better in this dub. I love it.
I found the voice actors to be much worse than the original. Idk maybe just my opinion. (Though it should be expected as star Wars isn't as popular in Japan and so the budge is rather short and the voice actors probably not nearly as proffesionall)
@@eliasvonbrille Star Wars is actually reasonably popular in Japan, in fact it's probably the most popular non-English dub of Star Wars except for maybe the German dub
@@WatchVidsMakeLists I didn't like the German dub either but it was still much better fitting than the Japanese one. I usually prefer the Japanese language over English for example but here in the original Anakins voice had so much more deep hatred and emotions. I found the Szene to be much less dramatic with the Japanese Dub but idk. Maybe just taste.
What amazing dubbing skills! They all captured the tragedy of this scene so well. As someone who can't speak Japanese I've always thought it was such a dramatic and intense sounding language.
damn this actually fits really really well.... You've not experienced Shakespeare until you've read it in original Klingon... You've not experienced Star wars until you've heard it in original Japanese
When I first worked in Japan, my company gave me a tiny studio the size of a walk in closet. It came with a 13 inch tv that didn't have bilingual capabilities. So I saw every movie in Japanese. Just like this...
Try Polish ones, we have this weird thing where some things seem deep while other's sound like treating yourself way too seriously, English dub is actually middle scale of how it could be. Japanese sells it because speech patterns align and they usually use such descriptive language normally which is why it doesn't look too forced compared to English.
it feels feel like they are in the studio but overall the quality of the voice lines is insane duh, if only there were some effects like reverb or something to make it wider it would be PERFECT
Really cool seeing these characters speak Japanese seeing that star wars was heavily influenced by the work of akira kurosawa, seeing these characters speak Japanese while dueling in long flowing robes really makes the samurai influence impossible to miss

@@watchmesquatch It's a nerdy Weeb reference, don't worry about what' rather 'racist' so much. You'll be stuck on that chapter for the rest of your life if you let it get to you lmao
fun fact: Toshiyuki Morikawa voices Obi Wan but he’s also most notorious for voicing Yoshikage Kira in JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Diamond is Unbreakable, voicing Sephiroth in the Final Fantasy VII series & Dante from Devil May Cry, but I’m pretty sure Toshiyuki Morikawa has also voiced Superman as well
I wouldn't be surprised at the Superman thing. I think there's an obsession with connecting Superman with Sephiroth, such as George Newbern, Tyler Hoechlin and now this dub actor.
As a young kid you really don't understand the gravity of the situation though you understand the events that take place . Into adulthood you deal with the many challenges and downfalls of betrayal, lies deceit, being ostracized , paranoia and it makes the scene feel different more personal.
It's kind funny that it fits so well given that Star Wars in general was inspired by anime and traditional Japanese cinema. So this is just going back to it's roots.
Obi-wans voice in japanese is EPIC! Also, im noticing I like some of the japanese dialogue a lot more than the original one! (1:30 he says the word "heart", no "mind", so it seems like the japanese version is "he has twisted your heart", which seems a lot more impactful)
Through studying one of Obi Wans most legendary duels, and attempting to recreate the moves Obi Wan used himself, Anakin created a new legendary duel for Padawans to learn from.
Just did a brief glance, but I don't see any mention of the cast here, so here's who we have. Anakin: Daisuke Namikawa Obi-Wan: Toshiyuki Morikawa Padme: Maaya Sakamoto
The one fatal flaw that the Jedi overlooked was in their code, "There is no emotion, only peace". Many have taken this to heart without analyzing it's meaning. Most who claimed themselves to be guardians of peace, did so out not out of a sense of humility, but of pride; a trait of the Sith. Anakin was taught to repress his emotions, his trauma, everything. Sidious played both sides, using the Jedi and Sith for political gain in his rise to power, and the Jedi out of a false sense of nobility, failed. Peace is not the lack of emotion, but the balance of it, just as it is in the way of the Jedi to seek balance in the force. Luke Skywalker recognized this, and reformed the Jedi order.
Even in the French dub, Bruno Choel as Sephiroth’s French voice also voices Obi-Wan Kenobi so he shares the exact same roles as Toshiyuki Morikawa in Japanese.

If we were going by Smash Bros. It’s Sephiroth vs Lucario.
You assume I need English subtitles for this...
But why did the ending make me start to cry?!
You're more weeb than I expected
(also this was epic)
Diavolo's voice actor on Obi-wan is just priceless.
It’s really cool that the Japanese cast is consistent between all the movies and the cartoons. Really helps connect the characters.
0:38 Obi-Wan be like: hello there! 🤣
Kon'nichiwa there
XD

3:33 I really need “NANI!?”
Obi-Wan's VA is Toshiyuki Morikawa who also voices Dante, Leon Kennedy, Sephiroth, Naraku and Griffith. Man is a legend
But unlike griffith, obi wan didn't sacrifice his comrades for the sake of power
Japanese Anakin being possessive over Padme hits differently now as his voice actor voiced Anasui in JoJo
The voice acting is amazing
The new Star Wars prequel anime looks great
As a young kid you really don't understand the gravity of the situation though you understand the events that take place . Into adulthood you deal with the many challenges and downfalls of betrayal, lies deceit, being ostracized , paranoia and it makes the scene feel different more personal.
I know right! I can understand why Anakin is so....worried.
It's kind funny that it fits so well given that Star Wars in general was inspired by anime and traditional Japanese cinema. So this is just going back to it's roots.
Obi-wans voice in japanese is EPIC! Also, im noticing I like some of the japanese dialogue a lot more than the original one! (1:30 he says the word "heart", no "mind", so it seems like the japanese version is "he has twisted your heart", which seems a lot more impactful)
kokoro could also be used for your mind. Like an old saying ''Your heart dictates your thoughts''. (心の沈む考えがある)
This is one of the very best EVER anime scenes in the history of japanese animation...
Through studying one of Obi Wans most legendary duels, and attempting to recreate the moves Obi Wan used himself, Anakin created a new legendary duel for Padawans to learn from.
English version: I have the high ground
Japanese: Omaewamo Shindeiru!!!
Anakin: Naniiii!????
Eren talked to Anakin when he was Burning and said
“Do you remember why you started this journey?”
Who else waited just to hear the japanese version of "I have the high-ground"
Just did a brief glance, but I don't see any mention of the cast here, so here's who we have.
Anakin: Daisuke Namikawa
Obi-Wan: Toshiyuki Morikawa
Padme: Maaya Sakamoto
Huh.... Obi-Wan Dante.... Anakin Narukami and Padme Aigis.... nice
this is the most epic thing ive ever seen
This works so well!
It's perfect in Japanese!
i love that they redubbed the screams and grunts as well when he makes the leap XD
The fact that Obi Wan and Anakin's JP VAs also voice Yoshikage Kira and Anasui respectively lol
Anakin's voice actor could have been better, but Obi-Wan's voice actor absoloutly killed it.
It’s the other way around tho obi wans did improve in the end
@@ThatsOk83 Sounds like an opinion
And luckily I have a garbage can
This needs more views
I will be honest, I never expected Padme to ever say "yamate"
"Hello there"
"General Shinobi"
They honestly did a good job of VA for this. They put in a really good performances
hoh? you're approaching me? vibes
After seeing the dialogue of this scene in Japanese, I was CRAZY to see this fight in an anime!
The translator made the dialogue sound really epic and serious. The wordplay is impeccable.
The one fatal flaw that the Jedi overlooked was in their code, "There is no emotion, only peace". Many have taken this to heart without analyzing it's meaning. Most who claimed themselves to be guardians of peace, did so out not out of a sense of humility, but of pride; a trait of the Sith. Anakin was taught to repress his emotions, his trauma, everything. Sidious played both sides, using the Jedi and Sith for political gain in his rise to power, and the Jedi out of a false sense of nobility, failed.
Peace is not the lack of emotion, but the balance of it, just as it is in the way of the Jedi to seek balance in the force. Luke Skywalker recognized this, and reformed the Jedi order.
This is by far the best thing I saw today
Obi-Wan is voiced by Sephiroth and Padme is voiced by Aerith
Even in the French dub, Bruno Choel as Sephiroth’s French voice also voices Obi-Wan Kenobi so he shares the exact same roles as Toshiyuki Morikawa in Japanese.
Watching the prequels in Japanese is actually a fun experience. For some reason it just really fits with the tone of these movies.
Starwars was always my favorite anime
The scream in Japanese was Anakin jumped was awesome
WHY IS THIS SO ACCURATE WITH INFLECTIONS LMFAO
wish someone could use this as audio for an Anakin vs Obi-Wan anime-tion
I Really Pray for that wish to become true bro
