I spent the day sorting through and re-reading a few thousand e-mails from 2010, and it was really a blast from the past. What a year it was.
Thanks for an awesome 9 years, and for some great e-mails along the way.

As always, I read all of my e-mail and can be reached with questions/comments/concerns/hate mail/and plain ol' hellos at moot@4chan.org (or on AIM at MOOTCHAT).
tl;dr version of 2010: "SPAM, SPAM, SPAM, and VIRUSES: The Movie"

Rock is hiding his boner.

varying levels of wants
>>
>>80405156
He's realizing how manlier two women are compared to him and now's he's questioning his entire view of gender and what it means to be a member of either sex.

Also he has a boner.
>>
>>80405156
Rock is japanese, he's knowledgable about all kinds of bedroom depravity the russians or the chinese haven't even discovered yet...
>>
Imagine a threesome with Balalaika and Revy with the two of them fighting over your cock

Rock: subtly breaking the 4th wall to remind us that someone got paid to write this little exchange.

>>80405394
Then Roberta bursts through the wall, murders them both and dominates you.

>>80412375

I prefer subs over dubs, but I still will acknowledge when they actually do a good job with the dub. I generally thought they did a good job with the Black Lagoon dub, but I couldn't stand Revy's dub voice. I thought it was too high-pitched and grating. The quality of the acting was generally the same for both versions.
Dub Dutch > Sub Dutch
Sub Revy >>>>> Dub Revy
Sub everyone else = Dub everyone else (generally speaking)
>>
>>80413731
You're supposed to relate to Rock's loss of innocence.

>>80414038
She's been smoking like a chimney and drinking like a fish her entire life. What are you expecting her to sound like, a gentle summer's day?
>>
>>80414164
She shouldn't be in voice acting if her voice sounds like shit because she didn't take care of it. Surgeons who make a living off their hands don't get drunk and play they knife game (at least I hope not.) The people responsible for the dub should have hired someone else to play her. Why don't they encourage new people to go into voice acting? They did a good job casting everyone else, why did they have to drop the ball so hard with one of the main characters?

I wasn't talking about Maryke Hendrikse, I was talking about Revy. Hendrikse can sound very different from that if she wants to. Go look at some of her other work. They wanted Revy to sound like that.

Also, they did encourage new people to go into voice acting. Dutch's VA was brand new when they hired him.

Still doesn't make much sense for her to do it herself though. You'd imagine Hotel Moscow could hire some sadsacks to produce their pornography.

There's no implication that she distributes such materials or is even involved in that particular area at all; if my memory serves me correctly, she claimed she bought them from some guy not actually connected to Hotel Moscow and it was only to try and improve her leads as to who's been killing her men.

It's obvious he made up Rock's beginning personality, not his current one. Notice how fast he changes from innocent Japanese maiden to full on chess master. It takes what, twenty chapters for him to be fine in Roanpur?

I highly doubt he didn't already have someone similar that had a relationship with Revy, as their interactions are like 2/3s of the show/manga.

Here's a simplified chain of events that affected him.
Confronting Revy
Meeting and watching the female(?) twin die
His abduction and talk with Takenaka
Japan Arc
Also, he had been with Lagoon for almost a year by chapter 10.
>>80416729
Anime only. In the manga, she's fucked dozens in prison. She was a dominatrix in both.
>>
>>80416280
Maybe the voices, but the translation was fucking terrible. I compared the eng/jap dub side by side and all the jokes in Japanese were ruined by shit translation.
>>
>>80416830
Sorry, a few.
His rejection of his employers
His talk with Revy on the sub
>>
>>80416830
Fucked dozens of girls. And she implied she just pleasured them. Is a bit different.
>>
>>80416846
I heard that they got a shit translation so they made the joke as they just made them up while following the script.
>>
>>80416830
>Anime only.
Why did the anime add something so, extremely different from what happened to her in the manga?

Those one were the real deal. He was like "Fuck the world, I'm gonna save people and do good." and the world answer "No, here have some shattered dreams instead".

Now, with the last arc where he actually managed to save someone and got shot for it by the people he helped, I can't see him becoming nicer.

Wrong way around. In both the anime and the manga she mentions fucking girls inprison, but the anime changes her line about working as a dom to imply she never did so in the past.

I'm aware of that. I was just showing that the anime and the manga are equal in their "pureness", or lack thereof.
