I once made a very thorough walkthrough of how to beat this game without grinding past Level 2. It came complete with indepth mechanics info that pretty much only the Japanese audience knew (like how to turn off overworked encounters with a button combination). Here it is, if you're curious:

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
This... This isn't Gohan. This is more like a less confident version of U16 Bra. Same aloof attitude, same cynical snark, same dismissiveness toward the other person's opinion... Salagir's falling into the same trap yet again.

I mean... He's a villain. Villain's are not above lying—especially if it gives them an advantage (like, say, only trying to atomize his head, instead of his entire body).

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
I mean... Honestly? Gohan was fairly nihilistic right before his Kamehameha duel with Cell, too. I'm pretty sure he explicitly said something along the lines of "I lost the use of my arm and half my power—just go ahead and finish us off", right before Goku gave his pep talk to him...

Re: DragonBall Z Abridged
I'm sad they don't seem to be watching the dub anymore—it has a great line from Baby at the end of Episode 25, as he's meeting Goten face-to-face:
-----------------------
Baby: "Yes, I feel it now... You're energy signature is similar to that of Goku."
Goten: "What?! How do you know my father ...

Re: Any FUNi dubisms you still find yourself saying from time to time?
It's more like calling the protagonist of Naruto "Nalt". It's technically not "wrong", but there's abolutely no logical thought behind it. Those examples you gave can at least be defended in SOME way beyond "wild guess".
My two cents: "Kuririn" is (for me at least) difficult to say, and doesn't ...

I assume you're talking about the double meaning that line presents. That used to happen quite often around here too back in the days. And although if/when taken out of context they provide funny moments, it's still true to what happened in-universe. So yes, you are.

I understand it may be difficult to follow through anything with a bad voice acting, but at least you're getting the real meaning that scene wants you to have.

Good voice acting with bad translation: With Trunks talking to Bebi Vegeta in the Blue Water dub as proof.
Seriously—this scene is impossible to take seriously, the way it's faithfully translated but badly acted.

Re: Monica Rial, Jamie Marchi Launch Podcast About Vic Mignogna Defamation Case
One can be genuine in belief while being bad in practice. If Vic is remorseful, he should accept being held accountable for his actions--in one way or another--as repentance.
