Ep 3. What's Wrong With International Dubs of The Digital Circus (The Mystery Of Mildenhall Manor)?

The third episode of The Digital Circus really exceeded my expectations. It showed a new side to the show, and I was pleasantly surprised. The Kinger's backstory was a great addition, too. The dubs were also fascinating. This time, I had a chance to delve deeper into them, and believe me, I found many amazing and unexpected things. We've got 13 dubs to explore in today's video, so let's jump right in!

the "skibidi sigmas" polish thing reminds me of an australian senator giving a speech

Other references in Polish dub:
- When Ghostly shows the doors in the Mildenhall Manor, Caine rates them using PEGI system (PEGI is an European video game content rating system, sorta like ESRB)
- When Gangle, Jax and Ragatha finished the Pacifist Route, Caine calls them "misie Lubisie" (Lubisie is a Polish cookie brand)

So in the german dub is a reference to the Song „Astronaut“ from Sido when pomni and kinger escape from the french monster with the elevator. Kinger says „ wir sollten fliegen wie ein Astronaut“ (we should fly like an astronaut) and when the elevator is going down he sings the chorus of the song.

2:22
I know everyone wants to watch it on Netflix but it’s isn’t on Netflix anymore
because the creators of TADC didn’t want to spoil about episode 4

4:20 in the Brazilian dub he says that "Zooble turns hard"
6:35 yeah, I got surprised when found out that it was "7 years" in the original

[Klarion]

0:39 from what I've heard, this change is due to the fact that many people wouldn't understand the original joke and "Sigma" and of course "Skibidi Toilet" are also quite popular in Poland through TikTok etc., so it was mixed in "Skibidi Sigmas" and that's how a rather cringe-worthy word was created for us
6:41 however, it seems to me that this change is related to the different number of years in college, i.e. I am still in high school and I am not sure if that is why, but I suspect that it may be a probable reason for this change
6:59 this is most likely about the saying "you have to have balls to do it" which is known in Poland
7:21 mistake here it was actually the original Anime Maya that was meant because the new one from 2012 is not very popular, we have a greater sentiment for the original, especially for the intro song performed by the dead Zbigniew Wodecki

In the Brazilian dub, Caine calls them "my favorite milkers"

[Dairunt]

In the Spanish version, after the angel jumpscare, Kinger asks
"Could you repeat that? I don't speak lovecraftian".

9:02 “I s#### on all your adventures” HELP WHAT😭

[creepstergaming]

I think that our translation: "How are you doing, skibidi sigmas?" fits the situation perfectly. Caine simply tries to get in touch with the characters by using cringe-worthy language that is popular among young people but they are not necessarily eager to use it.Jax, embarrassed, replies: "don't call us like that again, " so it fits the context of Caine wanting to be "cool" among the rest.

Also Jax did not say "Skibidi Sigmas" in the Polish version. He said "Would you please stop calling us that?"

Caine called them Skibidi Sigmas in the Polish dub

[DirkDankle-ggjn]

For the German, Geil is used for 'Cool' or 'Sick' in American slang. The German voice of Jax has commented on these videos in the past and might explain it better or correct me. From perspective as a German learner, I think the translators took the liberty because there was a good 'Punny' opportunity and showed off Jax's crass and flippant attitude. It also lines up with earlier expressions from Jax said in the German dub of the pilot like "Tschüssiskovski".

It still baffles me that no one noticed the "Ghost, Ghost, Toast" Spongebob Reference in the German Dub. 😂😅

[DerEineNick-]

At 1:38 Caine says: „This big spooky Mansion has been rumored to be filled to the brim with paranormal activitys.“ In the german Dub he says: „Diese geistreich Gestalteten Gruselgemäuer sollen gradezu reich an Geistern, Geistern und Weißbrot sein.“ That means: „ These wittyly designed scary walls are said to be filled with ghosts, ghosts and white bread.“ The white bread is a reference to Spongebob

[juztval]

"¡Bienvenidos mis furritos de leche!" excuse me?? 💀💀💀

[Koles_normalny]

As Polish guy i think that dub refrences to polish jokes 😎🇵🇱🇵🇱

[event-keystrim]

5:21 they are a self-insert of the director of the show, they (both the character and the real person) use any/all and are considered to be non-binary

[nikolaroettger]

You forgot Something. In the beginning of the Episode in German, Jax Said that Gangels Mask becomes a Bay Blade😂😂

[Person-nq]

7:52 im german and he says something more like ‚u made it my little gummy bear sucking tea bags‘
