I think, with me, I could never get behind Clinkenbeard performance just because of how Nadolny was dropped from the show. "Creative differences" iirc. I could get totally see the change with Frieza and the reasons they gave, and they also let Young keep her other roles...Nadolny was pretty much thrown to the curb which imo is pretty crappy. Voicing those characters for 10+ years to be dropped like nothing. Oh well, what can you do?

this is interesting, this is one of my biggest pet peeves with Clinkenbeard as Gohan and
especially Kid Goku. All I hear is Luffy and that bugs me because it makes me want to turn off DBZ and put in some One Piece.
I do hope they recast Kid Goku in future products. Luffy and Goku are
far too similar of characters to be voiced by the same VA. Gohan is fine because he is just so different from Luffy.
