Yeah yeah I know, someone on ERA is making a hyperbolic opinion thread. You can deny it all you want, but deep down you know it's true and somebody had to say it.

I've only seen the English Laura Bailey version, but I loved it. It's so different from the Japanese show though that they're not comparable.

Never watched this but have known of it for some time

When I saw this, I was taken back by how fuckin hype this fight scene looked and wasn't sure if it was from the same show

I have vague recollections of this being on in the middle of the night on Adult Swim

I never got to see any episode, but based on what my brother told me when he lived there, it's pretty huge in Spain.

I LOVED the Funimation dub. They did the episodes out of order, but added their own continuity and charm into it. I remember watching it on Adult Swim until they made Season 3 only on DVD, and that was the last of it...

It looked like it was fun to work on that show... I still wish that Funimation would pick it up again in the future.

I never saw any of the original episodes though, no idea where to even find them on.

Shin Chan is genuinely my favourite show of all time, I remember watching the Vitello dub when I was a kid, then the Fun dub when I was a late teen.
That show will always be #1 in my heart, every year I buy the Japanese movie posters and put them on my bedroom wall, currently at 32.
Such a shame we only got 3 seasons of the Fun dub and not a single movie.

Can we get a Kickstarter going!?

I don't typically watch anime in English, but I've seen a lot in both Japanese and English. They're both fantastic and pretty different experiences. In the Funimation dub, I absolutely love the two future episodes where Shin is in high school and boxes the russian guy. I've seen those two episodes countless times, and there are so many great and subtle background jokes. Too funny.

Definitely my favorite english dub of an anime of all time. There are so many jokes, many topical for the time period of its release, shoved in at such a fast pace that you have to really pay attention to catch them all. Great stuff.

Easily the best anime.

Wait just a second.

I just checked the funimation dub for the first episode and they mention Heroine and "Ass" and stuff...so when I was young and watched it on Cartoon Network what the hell was I watching?!

The adult swim dub is its own thing right? Like it doesn't even remotely resemble the original show? I've never seen the original, or original sub/dub... I have always wanted to though because I loved the AS versions.

Sometimes I think about the fact that this show has over 1,000 episodes and is by all rights a paragon of its genre, and yet I've never watched it

Then I go back to my blissful ignorance of its existence

It aired on Adult Swim so you can get away with that.

I was sad when they pulled the Funimation dub off of Hulu. I was tempted to buy the seasons on Amazon streaming but they were pretty expensive (close to $100 for all 3 seasons) and now I see it is no longer available to purchase streaming on Amazon. Sucks. There's a few bootleg episodes on Youtube last time I checked.

I remember the chapter when he was complaining about stomachaches and the teacher was teying to determine what was wrong, only to reveal at the end that it's because he hadn't taken a dump in like a week. For some reason that's always the first thing about the series that comes to my mind.

Also his penchant for dressing his dick up like an elephant.

User Banned (5 days): Encouraging and admitting to piracy
EVERYONE needs to torrent and watch Shin Chan: The Adult Empire Strikes Back. Shit is a legit amazing movie, it won awards and you WILL cry.

Actually, here's a facebook video link to the film with english subs.

MOD EDIT: Removed pirated content.

This movie is never coming to the states, never being officially subbed or dubbed, and is too good not to share- so I don't think it's an issue to post, but mods feel free to correct me.

I grew up with the Spain dub in the Dominican Republic and would always watch with my mom, who would be in hysterics over the show. One my fondest memories is watching my mom wipe tears of laughter the first time she saw Shin do his booty dance, lol.

Yeah Shin chan movies always had dope fights and action sequences.

Starts about 2 mins in:


This specific movie, Buri Buri was so fun. That duck lifeboat was hilarious. Went back 2 days ago and it's fairly well animated. The other one I've seen in Action Kamen. Kind of hard to find ways to watch them. Still have my VHS copies.

The part where they have to skydive out of the plane is a classic for me.
