Man kan finne et par ting på Archive.org og Netflix, og man kan finne noen veldig korte fan-skapte versjoneringer (fandubs) på YouTube, men i det hele finnes det ikke mye som er lett å finne. Norske Dubber Wiki har mange anime som jeg kan ikke finne på noen av de tre nevnte tjenestene.

Men som sagt, til og med norsk tekst er bra nok for meg. Jeg vil bare redusere min avhengighet på det engelske språket, slik at jeg kan forbedre min norsk og forbedre min japansk samtidig. Selvfølgelig kunne jeg selv skapt undertekstene og delt dem, om ingen andre har gjort dette arbeidet allerede — jeg er bare litt redd for at jeg ville gjort mange grammatiske feil (fra andres perspektiv, i det minste). Om jeg hadde en korrekturleser ville dette kanskje ikke vært et problem...

The Norwegian Dubs Wikia (Norske Dubber Wiki) has many anime that I can't find on any of the three aforementioned services.

But as said, even Norwegian subs is good enough for me. I just want to reduce my reliance on the English language, so that I can improve my Norwegian and improve my Japanese simultaneously. Of course, I could make the subtitles myself and share them, if nobody else has done this work already — I'm just scared that I'd make a lot of grammatical mistakes (according to other people, at least). If I had a proofreader this maybe wouldn't be a problem...

    Have you tried subscene or using the filter by language option on nyaa?

      Sorry, how do I filter by language on Nyaa? I only see "non-English-translated", nothing more specific. I can search the words "norsk" and "Norwegian" and get a few results, but I don't think that's what you're talking about.

        I must have misremembered, probably combined the two in my head.

        Sorry about that, it’s been a while since I’ve actually downloaded anime.

        If I was to try and solve this though, I’d find the name of the show in Norwegian and use that instead of the English or Japanese name.

        Maybe go to a Norwegian anime fan site, type in the Japanese name, and hopefully the results that pop up include both the Norwegian and Japanese title, like a Rosetta Stone. Unless you already know the name of the show you want in Norwegian.

          Well, that's the thing, right? I don't know of any local anime fansites, and localized series titles have over the past two decades become exceptionally rare, and these facts are symptomatic of why I'm asking this question in the first place.

            I gotcha, I’ve got nothing but time for the next day, so I’ll keep looking for ya since my original thoughts didn’t help.

              A side note is that I actually like coming up with fake localized names and testing people on if they can recognize what I'm referring to, it's good fun

                    Hell yeah, looking forwards to learning some stuff (and hopefully have some useful links RE above)

        Subscene is a site dedicated to typing the thing you’re going to watch, filtering by language, and downloading the five top rated because at least half are poorly synced. Idk how much anime stuff they have, but you can get subs in nearly any language for nearly any movie or show.

        Nyaa might be a solid bet, lots of language diverse anime subbing and dubbing there.

            I kept looking a bit and somebody on reddit said tv.nrk.no has stuff. You get a better selection if VPN into norway though

                  Yeah, that's the problem with my existence, I always feel like (and am often proven correct that) people will assume that I am some foreigner learning Norwegian as a second language for heritage reasons, or maybe a first-generation immigrant, when in fact Norwegian is one of my native languages. It's basically just a combo of autism stuff and having my only living parent be a US-born immigrant that has resulted in my Norwegian lagging significantly behind my peers, and that's given me a bit of a language complex. Even when I meet people in person they'll remark on my accent, and subtly doubt that I was really born here, it's honestly humiliating and I want to do something about it.

                  I was going to share an effortpost about this stuff but I can't find the right words for it even after like three drafts
