Re: Furuya Tooru (Yamcha) Admits to Physically Abusing Woman He Had An Affair With

I'm not trying to be a bitch or anything, but the title of the thread literally says Furuya Tooru, who is not exactly a voice actor in in the English dubbing industry. I was going to say the same, but I didnt want to look like I wanted to erase dub actors with asian names... Because I did it a long...

Both the fandom and the Idolized can be bad. This time it was Furuya, the Idolized who was bad. The fandom can be too, like the fan who murdered that one Anime Fan Song Dub woman he admired.

Re: What dub do new English Speaking fans go with more? DBZ or DBZKai

I'd guess it would be Dragon Ball Kai because the current generation raised on TikTok, Youtube shorts and "influencers" love their instant gratification. Sadly I don't know any stories of someone who did get into the series recently, young or old. Dragon Ball Z is a tough sell between hav...

What dub do new English Speaking fans go with more? DBZ or DBZKai

Forget Syndication, Toonami, forget Nicktoons, forget Toonzai, forget Vortexx. When new fans (It can be both young and old, but people who dont know the series beforehand) want to watch DBZ dubbed, what dub do they go with? Feel free to share your take here. And DO share if you know what a new fan d...

Re: Is original Dragon Ball really that unpopular?

True, I guess then it must be because the Arabic dub NEVER got to the juicier parts of OG DB like the Piccolo Daimao Saga. One thing that is interesting is that the comedic early parts of OG Dragon Ball actually saved the show in Latin America (All the sexual humor got edited out like you said SHIN...

Re: Is original Dragon Ball really that unpopular?

It just occurred to me why OG Dragon Ball would be unpopular in the Middle East. So many reasons specially the sexual humor, without it Dragon Ball is sorta boring (Until about the Red Ribbon arc) and devout Muslims wouldnt like the female nudity. TV censorship was brutal in the first arc and the e...

Re: Is original Dragon Ball really that unpopular?

To contribute something to the original idea of this topic, Dragon Ball in the Arabic world isn't that popular either despite airing a significant amount of episodes (around 1/3rd of the series). I'm going with second-hand info from some of my peers but Dragon Ball Z was also known way before Drago...

You are now deflecting outright, Adamant outright went with "Dub people are mentally deficient. Do you mean in the post from literally 12 years ago? That had nothing to do with the conversation on hand until it got weirdly brought up here? Seriously 12 years ago. Even if Adamant still holds th...

Does Crunchyroll provide sub par output... on purpose?

At first this was just going to be about the Crunchyroll server and how it goes down each time a hype episode airs. It was going to be half joking half serious that they have a server deliverately set to do that... Then I wondered what may be the REAL reason for the subpar server... and then how awf...

To be fair, I do think the "Having thicker skin" is indeed important... but I would never use it to enable bullying. This advice should be said to be VICTIMS to be able to bear a harsh world. As sad it is, it IS a much needed skill. But going "I can say whatever I want and if people d...

At least he admitted it. That's an important step.
The next important step is him going to prison

Tian I disagree, I think Adamant hasnt done anything wrong NOW but if he posted that exact same post NOW, I would expect the mods to temp ban him or something at least. That post wasnt acceptable then and it isnt NOW. Sure he toned down the awfulness in the years between but he never really apologiz...

Re: Why are the English dubisms far too ingrained into the fandom?

Ironically I am a huge fan of the TheCW4Kids Toonzai/Vortexx airings of DBZKai but heartily admit these ARENT the real version and it's just a kid friendly broadcast for kids and the silly edits make great fodder for jokes.

Re: Why are the English dubisms far too ingrained into the fandom?

No, I'm saying the majority (dub viewers/cishet people) like to tell the minority (sub viewers/queer people/fruity people) that they're oppressing them by pointing out that they are, in fact, doing the thing that they're doing. That being said, I don't really care, mostly because I think people are...
