About Hoshidub

Hoshidub is a Windows app for watching anime in Japanese while hearing it in English, live. It gives each character their own voice, keeps the soundtrack at full volume, and uses a show’s official subtitles to speak with no delay. Hoshi, an animated anime companion, watches along, chats about the episode and never spoils what’s coming. Everything runs on the viewer’s own PC. Hoshidub is made by MCP Labs in Pretoria, South Africa.
