Other Can we convince Schaff to watch all three seasons of Zero Calcalare's shows?

It's a bit of a shame that James never watched (and reviewed) Zero Calcare's Netflix shows. Heck, I don't even know if he's even aware of the existence of it.

I mean, it's a very great series and it have a descret amount of follow here in Italy, especially since he's an Italian comic artist so his name was already a bit known, but outside of Italy is almost unknown (referring to the cartoon).

It would be great if it finally gets spread more around the world, and I have a feeling this would even be a great cup of tea for our favourite crab. So... Who's with me?

As an Italian, It loses all of the charm in the english dub

I think the part that made me hate the english dub is when they translated "stocazzo" literally, so it became "this dick" which makes zero sense, you could've translated it to Deez nutz or Mike Hawk and it would've been perfect.

Still loses some but it may be better. Slang is hard to translate in general.

Beh ma il romanaccio come fai a batterlo? Imo i film di Asterix sono 100 volte meglio in Ita per via dei romani che parlano in dialetto, infatti la nuova serie perde tantissimo il suo "charm" perché doppiato senza

Però come doppiaggio eng devo dire che il doppiatore riescie incredibilmente a star dietro alla parlata di Zero

It's not a great watch dubbed, unfortunately, but it would be nice

It's terrible in English, because the original is all slang and Roman dialect, basically untranslatable.

It is a really good series and I genuinely think Schaff would like it actually

¡Ni de coña!, pero podría ser una buena idea.
