Dear god, please tell me that Revy's dialogue gets less hackneyed.


I'm watching the dubbed version and the overkill is just maddening.
Is it the same in Japanese? Does she come across as trying too effin' hard?

Brother, you can believe in stones, as long as you don't throw them at me.

I haven't noticed. IIRC the way of speaking they use in Japanese is much more polite than in the English (dubbed) version.

Good to know. Thanks for the reply!

can you give an example?

Because in the japanese version she also curses a lot.

In the end, this is an anime, where the english version makes more sense since she is supposed to be speaking english just like everybody there, but of course its an anime, so everybody is speaking english
