The sub vs dub debate always had one mechanical problem nobody disputed. dubs don’t match mouths. even peak funimation only got so close because the animators drew the mouth for japanese phonemes. nothing the voice actor does fixes that. AI lip-sync tools redraw the mouth frame by frame to match the dub audio. sync.so has demos of this on real footage and it looks shockingly natural. tried it on a clip myself last week, its costly af, applied to an anime scene, the mouths actually fit the english. This doesn’t fix bad voice direction or sloppy localization scripts. those are still a dub problem. but it kills the strongest argument the sub side ever had. the whole ‘dubs ruin immersion because mouths don’t match’ line stops working. submitted by /u/Tr0jAn14
