O Incrível Circo Digital

## *The Incredible Digital Circus*

***O Incrível Circo Digital*** is the Brazilian Portuguese dub of The Amazing Digital Circus. It was released on YouTube on October 23, 2023.

## Cast

 **Dubbing director**

 ***Theme Song***

## Notes

* In the Portuguese dub, **Caine** was renamed to "**Caim**." According to the dubbing director William Viana, quote "The name was translated as an allusion to the Bible, and all the names were approved by Glitch themselves."
* Despite the series being scheduled for release on October 20th, the dub only premiered three days later.
* The introduction lacks the same harmony as in the English version, where the singer has up to 3 distinct recordings to create the melody, while the dubbed version only has a single audio track.
	+ This oversight was corrected when the dub received a revised version three days later after the original upload.
* In the adapted version, apart from the words "porra" and "foder" (which means "fuck" and "fucking" respectively) it's not possible to distinguish the swear words being used during the scene where the censorship effect is introduced. Only grunts are used in its place. This is different from the original version, where you can somewhat tell what words are being said as the censorship takes a few seconds to kick in.
	+ In the original version, Zooble is able to say "fuck off" as she removes the censorship bar from her mouth. However, in the dubbed version, her speech is still censored when she tries to say the word "foder".
* Often when the show uses generic sounds like grunts, only the original english track is used.

## Revision

On October 26th, the dub received a revision where a series of elements were modified and updates were made to enhance the quality and the overall project. Some of these changes include:

* Reverb was added to several scenes that were originally missing it.
* The theme song was completely redone to match its original counterpart.
* The audio mixing was corrected; some dialogues used to be too loud or too low depending on the scene.
* During the introduction scene where Pomni exclaimed having a "fone" stuck to her face was corrected; now, she correctly calls it a headset.
	+ While the term "Fone" may directly translate to headset, it is specifically employed to refer to audio devices designed for playing sound directly into one's ears, such as earbuds and earphones. It is not used to describe devices such as VR headsets, which are referred to in Brazil as "Óculos VR," which translates to "VR glasses".

O que tá acontecendo? Eu só coloquei um fone estranho
e agora eu tô aqui.
What's happening? I just put on a weird earphone
O que tá acontecendo? Eu só coloquei um *Headset* estranho
e agora eu tô aqui.
What's happening? I just put on a weird headset
and now I'm here.

## Trivia

* In the adapted version, **Caine** (referred to as "**Caim**" in the Portuguese dub) frequently makes impressions of the Brazilian television host Silvio Santos, imitating his signature salesman manner of speaking.
