What if there was a Big Green dub of Kai?
If AB Groupe did an English dub of Kai I would assume they would call everything what it is (example, Piccolo instead of Big Green) because I don't think anybody liked the dub much so nobody really has an attachment to "Big Green," "Clearin," or "Space Warriors." I've heard that in the French dub of Kai they called everything what it's actually called so I'm sure since they've used the French scripts to make other dubs in the past they'd do the same thing with Kai.
Still, if they kept everyone as "Big Green" and other nonsensical names, it would be really hilarious. So I'd kind of want them to make another terrible dub just for old times' sake. What do you guys think would happen? Would you want an accurate and non-terrible dub or a wretchedly bad inaccurate dub for laughs?

I bet it could start being dubbed right now and still come out before the Ocean Kai dub.

Worst case scenario, a hypothetical Big Green dub of Kai would use either the French or the Funi (!) script of Kai with the old French names (ALA Catalan Kai). The acting may still be bad, but the script won't be a mess. Who knows, the Big Green cast might act vastly superior in this hypothetical Kai dub compared to the dubs of the movies and specials, as they might have better direction and not be forced to talkveryquicklyallinonesentencelikethis.

Meh, the Big Green dub had its time. If Ocean Kai is never released there's no need for alternate Kai dubs when we already have the amazing Funimation version.
Do you have any info about international non-English broadcasts about the Dragon Ball anime or manga translations/editions? Please message me. Researching for a future book with Dragon Ball scholar Derek Padula

Galician Kai also still use the old terms, excepting for "Space Warriors", that are now called "Saiyans", but they still use "Onda Vital" instead of "Kamehameha" for example.Danfun64 wrote:Worst case scenario, a hypothetical Big Green dub of Kai would use either the French or the Funi (!) script of Kai with the old French names (ALA Catalan Kai).

Is Piccolo still "Satan's Little Heart"? In other words, terms from the DB dub are kept but terms new to DBZ, or terms not named in the DB dub at all, are translated properly?
