No, we need a british localization of everything.

Piracy is good and you should do more of it. Use https://aniwave.to/ and https://4anime.gg/ for streaming, and https://nyaa.si/ for torrents. Piracy is the only means of digital protest that audiences have to fight poor worker treatment.

Every localization needs at least one character with an indecipherable Geordie accent
I don't think Americans have any room to talk when they keep making anyone with a kansai accent talk like southern hick.
Socially speaking, what American accent is perceived most closely to a kansai accent?
I'm gunna take a different tack and say kansai should be Scottish only because yanen could so easily be swapped with ya ken amd ~~99% meaning preserved~~ is close enough in usage in enough areas that it's fuunny
Boston or New Jersey accent maybe? There's no 1 to 1 comparison.
We should leave all the kansai words as they are because there's no 1 to 1 comparison.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
Critical support to British/English working class accents in fighting off the royalist UK and U.S dual hegemony of accents 
If anything, one would think that the accent of an island monarchy would be more suitable for translating Japanese...
i read this in the gruff ork voice from 40k
Oi, how com Dat Der humie talkz like a propa Ork?
Hmm we should investigate the ork-gammon connection there might be something there.
every 40k faction is just a different type of annoying Br*tish person
Who are my tyranids?
Evolving new abilities, endlessly consuming, monstrous looking, have a cult of followers - sounds like the royals
Plus when they were first released they had a limousine
(Before the 40k lore heads get at me yes this is the genestealer cult not full tyranids yet i don't care)
the concept of fancy lad tyranid units just sent me back ~~10~~ 14 
years to Gentleman Cho'Gath
It's almost like they were written that way!
There's that cursed British Urusei Yatsura dub, too lol
Bro I love that dub so fucking much I wish there was more
I really wouldn't mind it. That accent always makes me smile.
There is actually one good british anime dub and that's Steamboy
