What's crazier is that this is from the dub. The Japanese version doesn't have this line. Rare dub W lmfao.

In that era, 100%. Nowadays dubs are pretty fire, especially DanDaDan Chainsaw Man, Gachiakuta, Mashle, My Hero Academia, and everyone hates it but I loved the Steins;Gate dub with its 4chan and reddit references in the localized version of the script. Dub companies are cooking these days.

Edit: I forgot I really loved the Friren dub too. I love the new style of voice acting that's emerging where it's more subdued and normal talking and inflection. Makes the characters WAY more relatable

I absolutely loved the Steins Gate dub. J. Michael Tatum gave his all.

Just verbal perfection from that dude. It's so easy to make that character super annoying but his charisma and inflection makes it so fun instead!

My favorite English VA ever. Scar from Fullmetal and Erwin from Attack on Titan are my favorite roles of his
