Midori no chikyû wa makasetoke - S1-E2

Audio problem: In the hangar scene at the beginning, Goat is talking to Akito. Seiya Uribatake in the background is arguing with his fellow mechanical worker about the reparations to the Aestivalis. The conversation happens in the back of the hangar and it is meant to be strong background noise, annoying enough to prompt Goat's reaction, but in the English dub it is so strong that quite literally most of the main dialogue is nearly inaudible because of it. The dubber also adds a surprised/scared "waah" at the end when Goat cuts him off, but that is incredibly delayed compared to the reaction of the character on screen. (00:02:35)

I Worship His Shadow - S1-E1

Audio problem: As the Fore Shadow is charging up its blast each time, when first shown it makes a high pitched shrieking sound as the energy spreads across The Web of cables fanning out from it. However as the battle continues, this sound effect becomes very inconsistent when it plays in correlation to the energy blasts charging up on the ship. (00:02:15 - 00:03:20)

Such Inward Secret Creatures - S1-E5

Audio problem: After Paul and Amy make love, Paul puts his pants back on and stands back up. He says, "What?" There is a strangely timed "what" right after that. It's an exact replica of the first one. There is an audio overlap from the other angle here.

Audio problem: When Weol-ju and Guibanjang are speaking after meeting up at Ji-hye's memorial, she says "I found out when I went to see Ms Shin. I can't believe this."
