Re: Dragonball Kai dub?
I don't know the the new narrator or new Bulma. Still, Luffy and Gohan having the same voice should be interesting and Puar/Chaozu having the same voice as Tony Tony Chopper will be good I hope.

Re: Dragonball Kai dub?
So this Doc Morgan guy... He's apparently a commercial narrator. http://docmorgan.net/.
I can understand why they recasted Gohan. That was a good choice. Still don't understand why they recasted Bulma but not Freeza.

Re: Dragonball Kai dub?
I just hope the old cast don't fuck up like before, Sonny Strait, Sean Schemmel and Chris Sabat mostly...
And we need a new Freeza!!!

Re: Dragonball Kai dub?
If they're gonna recast Freeza I don't think they'd announce it so soon. They'll probably announce that kind of thing when FUNi gets to Namek.Innagadadavida wrote:So this Doc Morgan guy... He's apparently a commercial narrator. http://docmorgan.net/.

Re: Dragonball Kai dub?
Anyone have any good clips of the woman doing puar? Apparently she voiced her in BT3/meteor (I think that was 3).
Proud to be a S<3NE.

Re: Dragonball Kai dub?
Right I forgot about that. Been awhile since I've seen the first episode of Kai. Freeza didn't really have much of a speaking role though considering all he did was laugh.Taku128 wrote:But he appears in the very first episode.

Re: Dragonball Kai dub?
So, we've got Zangya as Gohan and Lumiere (from Kiddy Grade) as Bulma, eh? The other two, I'm not sure I've ever heard.
Interesting. Just checked her wiki, apparently she's been doing Chaotzu since BT2. I hadn't even noticed a difference. Heh.Anyone have any good clips of the woman doing puar? Apparently she voiced her in BT3/meteor (I think that was 3).

<Xyex> Original Freeza never sounded like a chick to me.
<Kaboom> Neither does Rita
<Xyex> Good point.

She sounds exactly the same. I wonder what happened to that poor librarian.

Yeah, I'm not going to watch the dub now. I'll check out the new cast members, but that's it.

Re: Dragonball Kai dub?
I wonder why they're comfortable recasting somebody as predominate as Gohan, yet still will not recast Freeza. Fuckin' a guys.

Re: Dragonball Kai dub?
Well, fuck that shit.
The only way they could possibly make this right now is by fixing terms and names, which is a hell of a long shot. Those recasts aren't bad actors(However, I don't know Doc Morgan) but they were not necessities like Freeza. Fuuuuck.

Re: Dragonball Kai dub?
Stephanie Nadolny's being replaced as Gohan? Fuckin' A, she was great as Gohan after Season 3.
I mean, do you really think that Funi employees are in the office saying, "Those guys on the Daizenshuu EX forums don't like the DBZ cast, we're gonna replace them even if everyone is available."
The main reason they're probably recasting the characters is because their original actors probably weren't available. It has nothing to do with quality. I don't see why Funi would base their recasting on the opinions of a minority audience.Innagadadavida wrote:So this Doc Morgan guy... He's apparently a commercial narrator. http://docmorgan.net/.

Yamcha: Do you remember the spell to release him - do you know all the words?
Bulma: Of course! I'm not gonna pull a Frieza and screw it up!
Master Roshi: Bulma, I think Frieza failed because he wore too many clothes!

Re: Dragonball Kai dub?
Actually, aside from Hebert, none of the replaced actors do voice over work anymore. It's probably easier to work with actors who work for the company then people who have other jobs now. Hebert on the other hand works for Viz now. Interesting that they'd recast him as the narrator but keep him as Gyu-Mao/Ox King. (I'm assuming, since a replacement wasn't announced) I'm also guessing since they didn't announce anything that Schemmel is still Goku.jjgp1112 wrote:Stephanie Nadolny's being replaced as Gohan?
