I watched some of the new Takeshi's Castle with neither subs nor dubs and found it enjoyable regardless. It might be the way I watch anime going forward. Asserting dominance through willful ignorance.

For me it used to come in TV with hindi commentary, which was absolutely hilarious lol.

Glad to hear somewhere else did this! USA had "MXC" as for its equivalent.

My girlfriend showed it to me recently and it was bonkers. I love that they didn't even pretend like it made sense lul. Amazing.

The UK version was narrated by Craig Charles and he really made it better just by adding silly comments over the top. I always used to laugh when the water cannon challenge was on and he would excitedly say "don't let them penetrate your rings"

like that 4chan greentext about reading all the classics in the original language, whether or not he could read it.
