Re: Unpopular DB opinions

While Funimation's dubs of Kai and the recent stuff are better than the Saban and Westwood dub, I think Ocean has the more talented actors.

Re: Damn is Chris Ayres good.

Nakao is probably the best choice as far as Japanese goes, but in fact I do like Ayres even a little bit more than I do LittleKuriboh. That said, he'd probably be the best possible replacement for Ayres I can think of. I hear Ayres' brother will be voicing Frost, so they'll probably take him for Fr...

It's a blessing that we have him as the voice of Frieza. By God, he nailed it.

Re: "Dragon Ball Z Kai: The Final Chapters" FUNimation English Dub Official Announcement and Discussion Thread

To me it stood out a little to much at first then it sort of settled, I guess I wasn't used to hearing him sound posh. I don't think it's Posh. Frieza's Posh with his newer voice. Vegito's, I would say, is just a bit more regal. It's how Sabat's Vegeta usually talks. You can even notice the inflect...

Re: Thoughts on Brian Drummond's Vegeta?

Indeed. Really, I don't think any of the Funi voices were actually good until Kai. They were generally okay in the OG Dragon Ball series dub, but until Kai, they were all so poorly directed. Even when they actually had some production value and the actors had some experience in the Boo arc, GT, or ...

Re: "Dragon Ball Z Kai: The Final Chapters" FUNimation English Dub Official Announcement and Discussion Thread

Either way, I'm really glad Funimation stuck with the 2 voices for Vegetto, after the rumor of him having only one voice (Schemmel doing a Sabat impression I guess.) Wasn't that one voice thing only done for the Ocean Dub of the Buu arc with Brian Drummond doing an impression of Kirby Marrow's Goku...

Or maybe the voice actors themselves can't scream that well.
I doubt anyone could be so bad at yelling, but if that's the case, it's just poor casting.
Kirby Morrow wasn't exactly very good at screaming as Goku.

If they're very lucky, late fall/winter. Realistically? Probably sometime next year. They have to get purchase approval from the CRTC in addition to doing all the standard stuff to launch a channel. Excellent! I thought it would maybe Ben next year, it seem s like if they get Kai it will be highly ...

Re: Does anyone have a problem with how Fat Boo sounds in FUNi Dub?

The Ocean dub actor who played Reacoom may have fallen under the "dumb oaf" voice, but he was good at it. Martin was good with Kid Buu but terrible at the high pitched childish voice. It's not even childish so much as grating. I believe the Ocean voice actor who played Recoome is David Ka...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" FUNimation Dub Official Discussion Thread

Besides, I can't fathom how people can tolerate more than two or three seasons of that damn anime. It's basically the same crap all over again. To be honest the same thing could be said about Dragon Ball in some ways. At least the characters in Dragon Ball are more likable than the ones in Pokemon.

Re: Ocean Studios' "Dragon Ball Kai" dub seems to be coming...

My opinion has always been that Wilson had the better voice, but that Clarke was the better actor. Wilson's voice was very fitting for the character, but his delivery could sound downright weird at times. In Theater School, they told us never to just say, "something's good," or, "som...

Re: Does anyone have a problem with how Fat Boo sounds in FUNi Dub?

I'll agree that sometimes he tries too hard to be cool, but yeah, Sasaki is more effortless. The people who don't like Sasaki think he just sounds like a Shonen action hero. Which is'nt true, compare the way he speaks to someone like Shirou from Fate stay night, shiro sounds far more generic. https...

Re: Does anyone have a problem with how Fat Boo sounds in FUNi Dub?

What does a delinquent sound like? Sasaki is overall a superior actor and he never sounds like he's trying to be cool, he just is. To the people who prefer Cook over Sasaki, a deliquent sounds cool. I like Cook's performance, but it's very overrated. But Cook doesn't sound cool, he sounds like some...

Then, do you think Goku should be always the main character? Or do you think Goku could be replaced, but not by Pan? Yes, Goku should always be the main character.
