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 ...

But that's not what you're disagreeing with me. You're disagreeing that you are getting the real meaning, which is what I said.

This is like asking if I want a terribly written song sung beautifully, or a well written sung song horribly. Our entertainment should not make us want to rip our ears out.

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. No I'm not—because the intended...

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. No I'm not. I'm listening to a horrible actor telling another horrible actor about the time "[he] was inside of [him, and]...left a li...

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. Trunk's reaction kills any drama the scene might've had, and everything from 1:22 onwar...

Remember when "Super Saiyan Rage" first premiered in Legacy of Goku II (GBA)?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bBO-ei9_-98

I remember when we were all brainstorming names for Trunk's new form, and I stole "Super Saiyan Rage" from this game. Imagine my shock when Toei actually went ahead and named it that :lol: !

DBZ Episodes 1-67 Rescored, with new Faulconer music!

Have you ever wondered what Season 1 & 2 of the Orange Bricks would've sounded like, had Faulconer not tried to sue FUNimation? What sort of new tracks might have been added to the sound library? Have you been looking for musicians who could replicate the instruments, electronics, and compositio...

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. Indeed. It really is depressingly common for people to twist religious instruction to their own end, though. Even Satan quot...

Re: Monica Rial, Jamie Marchi Launch Podcast About Vic Mignogna Defamation Case

Say, isn't Vic an outspoken Christian man? At least that is what I heard. Indeed. One wonders how he justifies cheating on his prospective wife (which he's also admitted) for so long--or if his faith is even genuine. That's the sad truth about being a country's most popular religion--lots of phonies.

They're an OK person at heart. Some of the things they're expressing are genuine, caring viewpoints. They're just wrapped up in a whole bunch of bullshit.

Re: Despite his goals, Zamasu is pure of heart?

My opinion is that Zamasu is "pure of heart"...in that he is the most vile person that has ever existed, in the entire franchise. He is to Dragon Ball what Satan is to real life. Think about it. We have a divine being on our hands—one that has lived longer than any of us could ever imagine...

Aw, but Julie seemed just fine to me. If they were 4Kid's worst problem, then 4Kids had it easy.
