Z&G sound great!

I maybe wrong but I don't think our next break is until May.

Mai calls Trunks her boyfriend in the beginning of RoF
Toei removed all instances of the Trunks/Mai shipping from their remakes of the movies, and that made it awkward when the FT arc script had their shipping as part of the story
Huh. Never noticed those in the movies. Guess I'll have to rewatch them then.
I'll never understand why Toei made it a point to remove their relationship/shipping. Maybe they didn't like it?
They can't write Goku's character passed him being a manchild as opposed to how he's actually supposed to be, so I don't know.
Only dubs that matter are DB, Kai, & Super. Nothing else.

Whelp, Zamasu may be ruined in the dub. I know it's early, but couldn't they hire a talented VA?

Knee-jerk reaction much? The episode hasn't even aired yet.

Zamasu and Gowasu sounds great in the dub.

Vale has this strange ability to make Trunks sound constantly smarmy, sarcastic, annoyed, and overall just unlikeable, when that's completely out of character. He's supposed to be humble and respectful in these recent scenes, yet I think he just kinda comes off as a little shithead in a lot of the quieter moments, like the one ice cream scene I saw from 52. There was just no chemistry whatsoever between him and Hebert as Gohan in that scene. Really not a fan of modern Vale.

Also, Gowasu sounds AWFUL. My god, that is just genuinely bad acting, no two ways about it. Zamasu....sounds fine I guess. The voice actor doesn't capture the youth that Zamasu has but I feel like he'll nail the holier-than-thou pretentiousness pretty well.

I'm not "determined" whatsoever. I usually DEFEND the dub. Just because I'm shitting on it this ONE TIME doesn't mean anything. Try understanding who you're talking about before you start throwing shade.

I don't know what it is about Gowasu's dub voice but it makes me laugh. Hoping it's better during the actual episode.

He's sarcastically pointing out that the anime references previous scenes even though some detractors called those scenes filler.
Of course he's discussed this many times before, but seeing it in the dub again, apparently compelled him to post this aimless, non-contributory remark even though there are no detractors in sight and there was no discussion about it for at least the last couple of pages.

Apparently, someone went and extracted clips from the latest Xenoverse 2 update. Meet dub Jiren:

Not bad if legit. Kind of sounds more like I'd expect Toppo to sound though.

What's up with Eric Vales voice nowadays? It's beyond raspy and makes me feel uncomfortable. His performance In Z was way better, It sounded natural too.

Not bad about sums it up. It kinda sounds like Seitz to me? For the show proper the lines need to be delivered a lot more "colder" I think, but as a basis right now it is just okay.

Agreed. I am 99% certain that's Patrick Seitz, he doesn't have a Dragon Ball role yet so it'd make sense.
