Crispin Freeman Interview Online

Anime News Network has published an exclusive interview with popular dub voice actor Crispin Freeman. The interview covers topics including dismissing “hardcore fans” as people who criticize dubbed anime “as a hobby” to give themselves “a sense of importance”; a theoretical theme of male expression of feminine vulnerability within I, My Me Strawberry Egg; Crispin Freeman’s professional accomplishments and missed opportunities; the popularity of dubbed anime in America over original Japanese language versions; the irresponsibility of translating companies in not producing good quality dubs and fans in not insisting on good quality dubs; and an online petition to retain Crispin Freeman and the rest of the original English dub cast of Slayers for the dub of the Slayers Premium movie, if, and/or when, Slayers Premium is actually licensed for American release.
