ETA: Sorry, it seems non-USA countries' IPs are blocked.

ETA: *not so spoilery* No Pizza Hut for US. :(

....I wonder if they changed the episode title to avoid paralleling Lelouch with the Devil (Satan) in order to avoid criticism from hard-line religious groups...

And Kallen's "bad@ss mother" line was LOL at its finest

[able.livejournal.com]

Are they all in parts or is it like.. the full episode?

[sugar-dustbunny.livejournal.com]

It's the full episodes broken down into parts, but the player automatically moves to the next part after it's done playing the current one.

why is johnny yong bosch such a manwhore? I hate his voice, I knew he didn't have the base in his voice to pull this off.

[nokiirat.livejournal.com]

very few american male voice actors have nice naturally, deep, manly voices...haha. they always resort to sounding raspy or growly.

ah well. good thing the dvds will have subtitles. ^_^

" i will obliterate britania"
"happly your highness"

those lines bothered me alot.

[miribai.livejournal.com]

"bad ass mother" oh hell. i give up

[hayato.livejournal.com]

Am I the only one who's horridly confused on how to get this to work?
I click the thing but.. .. lol redirected.

[nokiirat.livejournal.com]

it shows you a commercial, but as long as you see the code geass episode 1 summary on the right, you are on the correct page.

[hzuki.livejournal.com]

Same here..right after little Lelouch said "So help me" a little part of me died somewhere inside.

[x-drear-x.livejournal.com]

Grr, grr. IPs outside America are seemingly blocked. Does anyone know if this will be streamed anywhere else in the near future?

[nokiirat.livejournal.com]

ah. i didn't know that. sorry.

[miribai.livejournal.com]

i agree. when i heard he was doing this i knew it was destined for the fail train.

[gakupoid.livejournal.com]

Bye bye Pizza Hut... Hmm... Script differentiated from what I remember... and Rivalz name said in the dub is unusual. xD Rivel! (But I like it; and I haaaad to say while watching with my friend that it should've been Rollo's dub voice xD).

[rainbow-cnxn.livejournal.com]

LOL. That's all I have to say about that. Also, it seems like Lelouch's voice is higher than Suzaku's, which is just wrong.

[x-drear-x.livejournal.com]

That part irked me the most, it throws you off when you're listening to the higher voice thinking it's Suzaku.

[shrocomemos.livejournal.com]

Why do all the main characters get shitty voices while all the minor characters' are awesome? That damn police officer who had two lines was seriously the best in the entire episode.

[ashe.livejournal.com]

I love how Rivalz became "rihvul."

It's not THAT bad... yeah ... :|

[rosa]

Truth be told I was expecting much, much worse.

Though when Lelouch popped up, all I visioned was Ichigo. :<

[nkitty29.livejournal.com]

I second that about Lelouch=Ichigo

[pinao88.livejournal.com]

Rivalz (LOL RIVUL) said "bust our hump." Oh, the humanity.

I don't even want to think about how bad V.V. is gonna be.

[leitao.livejournal.com]

I liked Suzaku's v.a., but as for Lelouch's, I only have one thing to say: ICHIGO KUROSAKKKIIIIIII.

D:

[zidane.livejournal.com]

RIVVLE.

Viletta got one line BUT IT WAS HOT. Overall, I am really enjoying the dub!

[nachtstar.livejournal.com]

I-I don't think I'm going to enjoy watching the dub. D: After seeing this and ep. 2 at comic con, I fear for the rest of the series. ;_;

[slayer-sango.livejournal.com]

They didn't say "Yes, my lord" DDD: that was my favorite part of the episode too :(

[corsette.livejournal.com]

I dunno, "Happily, you Highness" is pretty snazzy u guyth.

But I'm pleased with the dub. Personally, I think it's really good. The only thing is I have to get used to the voices since I keep thinking Jun's voice is going to come out of Lulu's animated!mouth.

...a-also is that Kaiba in the beginning. Or just someone who sounds a lot like him.

[kittendreamz.livejournal.com]

I'd disagree on the dub being all that great....

BUT! I didn't see anything wrong with "Happily your Highness." It didn't really need to be changed...but it sounded kind of fun. I had the same problem, and kept thinking I was going to hear Jun's voice, and expecting it.

I just don't think Jonny's voice is deep enough to do the character any justice though, and some of his lines fell too flat.

[fox-holland.livejournal.com]

I would enjoy it so much more if frickin James Earl Jones did all of the Zero lines and not Johnny.

[lulu-quality.livejournal.com]

Make it frickin Jeremy Irons and that would give (official) grounds to make a "Be Prepared" amv with Lulu as Scar and Kallen, Ougi, and Tamaki as the hyenas. GREAT IDEA!!!! :Db

I'm in Canada and i had no problems viewing it o_O

[sapphirus.livejournal.com]

I'm there too but it keeps on redirecting me when I try to view it.

[shatteredwolf.livejournal.com]

I'm watching it tomorrow on AS. I have so many friends that haven't seen it, I can't wait to see how they will feel about it.

[shojokakumeii00.livejournal.com]

I've certainly heard worse before but I wasn't very impressed. The translation was a bit wanky in a few spots (the pronounciation of Rivalz' name (I honestly can't figure how it ought to sound in English, but not like that) Kallen's "badass mother..." among other things). Llyod's voice made me facepalm hard (seriously, there's an English equivilant of that voice). There were quite a few spots where it became really painfully obvious that they're recording individually and not together (I noticed it most with Lelouch, his acting just fell really flat most of the time like he was talking to a wall and not playing off the other actors in the scene--admittedly it's a weakness of the American method of recording voices but you'd think the actors would be used to it). And whoever's dubbing the Emperor didn't do Wakamoto justice at all either (I guess that's a difficult standard to live up to).

Clovis and Suzaku's short-lived superior officer were pretty win though. Suzaku and C.C. were tollerable, but the messed up stress on Suzaku's name was a little annoying (it's on the first mora not the second!)

[kittendreamz.livejournal.com]

I have to agree with your oppinion on Johnny. I think part of the reason his voice fell short, besides the feeling that he wasn't exactly suited for the role, was that it DID feel disconnected...as though he wasn't actually acting with someone. As a theater major...I know it makes a world of difference when you have someone else to bounce off of.

No Pizza Hut ;_;
