Yes, though the cast isn't problem, at least in the way you think.
(Also anorak moment; It's the Pioneer/Geonon dub of Part 2, adult swim only aired season 1. Also Zenigata got a new dub VA for Part 4 onwards because Dan Lorge retired.)
You can say that again.
Season 1 of Part 6 takes place in London, features Sherlock Holmes as a main character and has characters who work at Scotland Yard, HQ of the Metropolitan Police, you can't get anymore stereotypically British unless every character drank tea 24/7. All of the characters speak with American accents.

Finished up Lain earlier today. It's very good - as good as I expected it to be. I'm going to be upfront and say there were a couple of things that were lost on me, particularly on Lain herself, as much as I liked her. This definitely calls for a re-watch or two.
I'm listening to the OST as I write this. I find that when I enjoy a show, I find myself digging into its soundtrack, too, to further immerse myself in the atmosphere. "Lain's Theme", "Far Cry", "Pulse Beat", "Free Zone", and "Wind of Space and Time" (that one may be my favorite, along with "Lain's Theme" and "Duvet"), "Duvet", and "Signal of Loneliness" are tracks that stick out to me.
I then started up Gurren Lagann, out of just curiosity. On episode two, and it's pretty fucking funny, with Simon and Kamina being easy to like. Yoko's pretty dope, too. Am looking forward to see what happens next.

Oh man, Gurren Lagan is fucking great. It really hits a killer pace after that first quarter of episodes.

I've been meaning up to watch the movie versions, since I already watched the TV version.
does anyone recommend it?
also there are cool robots.

I legit forgot they had those robots in the movie. Kinda feel like they only made the movies (second one especially) just to be a bit more explicit in nature compared to the TV show.

Just finished watching Kotaro wa Hitorigurashi (Kotaro Lives Alone).
The anime was great, and each episode were pretty heavy emotional-wise with some light-hearted scenes to go along.
One of the many Netflix-licensed anime that's actually good!

I recommend the movies. The first one is much more of a summery of the first half with a different ending and improved animation for big moments, while the second one changes a lot more and goes super crazy with the final battle. I’d say the only negative of the second movie is it’s missing the “Clench Your Teeth!” moment from the anime. That shit was awesome.

Movie 1 is pretty pointless, but Movie 2 changes a bunch of things from the TV version and has some nice alternate scenes/ending. It definitely stands on its own even though the TV version will always win to me because of nostalgia.

The opening scene of the first movie and the finale of the second aside, I always found the Tv series better. Worth a watch after you finish though

For me, it was Karino's realization of what the kid was eating to stave off hunger. It was too much for me.

I was surprised. Then again, he's not exactly tall enough to reach the stove.

Considering the choice of my KF username, it says a lot that a Ken Akamatsu work like this one speaks to me.
Minus the female and gender bender robots living in my house, of course.

The real idiocy is how is this news? She’s literally a dub voice actor commenting about something unrelated to anime.

Percy Jackson? Didn't that movie come out over a decade ago?
Anyway, from what I've heard, the whole series got pozzed to hell anyway. Get your kid reading the Bartimeaus Trilogy instead.

New thing being made. They raceswapped the main girl. In the books she’s described as “blonde hair, blue eyed”. In new thing she’s black.
