Re: Deep Thoughts: The Namek Saga (Ocean Dub)

Canonically Goku, Raditz, Yamcha, Tien, Chiaotzu, Piccolo,Kami, Nappa, Cui, Dodoria, Zarbon, Random Frieza minion#43, and Guldo all died in the Ocean dub it was just the next dimension phrasing was used. Reecome also died too (As far as I can remember) Although, I was referring to when they referre...

Re: Could foreign dub casts be a thing of the past?

As a Voice Actor, and based on my personal experience, I don't think so, we have not reached the point to where it would even sound decent. I participated in a Project that was initially gonna be made using AI technology to replicate the voice of the original actors, all while we were going to do th...

Re: Deep Thoughts: The Namek Saga (Ocean Dub)

Like I said "next dimension" isn't that bad and it was still clear Goku and everyone else who "went to the next dimension" was killed. Otherworld just would have been a way better workaround. Canonically, Goku and Raditz did die in the Ocean Dub, XD Canonically Goku, Raditz, Yam...

Re: Deep Thoughts: The Namek Saga (Ocean Dub)

[ Of course, this doesn't explain the replacement score or made-up lines about Goku's father being a brilliant scientist and whatnot--it just paints a picture of why things were so sanitized. Also, to be fair, if the characters believed in spirituality and souls passing through (which they obviousl...

Re: Deep Thoughts: The Saiyan Conflict (Ocean Dub)

The intro to DBZ episode 1 takes footage from the oddest of sources, mostly movies 1 and 2. It's designed to show Goku going from kid to adult and say "the next generation has arrived." I wonder what the thought process was there. That clip comes from a Dragon Ball Z Test dub produced wit...

Re: So I rewatched the Pioneer Ocean movie trilogy

I'm guessing that despite Pioneer having production rights, Funimation still directed the cast and wrote the script, which is amazing seeing as they haven't been as faithful to the original before or after these movies. All due respect to Funimation but Ocean have always had better writers. The Fun...

Re: so uhh Sony threw away funimations dragon ball film

Didn't Funi apparently sell off or give away the film copies of OG DB they had at some point in the last decade or so? Seeing as how eps 1-28 had a different source on the season sets compared to 29 onward which more or less just used the tape transfers (albeit with noise reduction/zooming) that ha...

Re: Ocean Studios' "Dragon Ball Kai" Dub Turns 11; Still Unreleased

Did Alistair say if he was still Trunks or not? You're correct, it was hey Vancouver/Calgary-based coproduction. And yeah, I'm not surprised by some of that lack of clarity. Not just from the fact that it was already so long ago, but to be honest, a lot of the Vancouver actors have inconsistently s...

Amazing! So happy to have it confirmed that Saffron Henderson did return for Gohan, she is amazing in the role. Thank you AlexSketchy04! I have a feeling Terry K was not in Ocean Kai at all but I'm sure he'll have knowledge on at least some of the details. Yeah, Terry either does not remember, or h...

Re: Source of Rumor that FUNi's Early Z Masters "Came From Mexico"

And back in those days I believe dubbing was usually done with a teleprompter feeding the actors their lines Looooool. ...no. That is not something that has ever happened or could happen in dubbing. There are some studios that use a similar system for the scripts, the one I work for (The Kitchen) h...
