And then you have me, who's so hardcore I was forced to sign up for Netflix so I could watch the Dutch dub of Tonari no Totoro . If I was any more hardcore, I'd figure out how to rip it from there, because it's the only home release it ever got, as far as I can tell. Can't even find a second-hand VHS (wouldn't be acceptable quality anyway).
But that whole situation means I'm a Netflix subscriber who "prefers dubs" for their stats, even though I rarely watch a dub.
For the English dub, yes. I even found Italian, French, German, Spanish and Russian. But none of the pirates set their VPN to Netherlands to get the Dutch dub.
And the spanish version is usually from spain so I have to go down a fucking rabbit hole trying to find the latinamerican spanish version (es-419) even for the subs.
