Re: Which names to go with?

There's also the changing the names of Bardock's team-mates, which I don't really get. Toma into Tora Celipa/Cerypa/Selypa (her name is almost an anagram of "parsely" or something, isn't it) into Fash [/b]a Totepo into Borgos Panboukin into Shugesh The name changes completely remove the ve...

Re: Game loading mini-games

In the first Budokai game you could rotate the waves on the dragon radar with one of the control sticks... Not exactly a game, but it's a bit of interactivity on the loading screen like all the other ones.

Re: New Freeza Talkback

I think the Japanese OHOHOHO style laugh isn't something that an English voice actor can do without it sounding really, really silly. Even in Japanese it seems rather hokey to me, but I kind of accept it as a cultural thing.

Re: Dragonball Kai (FUNimation English) Dub: General Discuss

Hm, haven't posted here in quite a while... I've been catching up with bits and pieces of Z Kai for a while, mostly to see Ayres' performance as Freeza considering he's my favourite of the villains and is definitely the best of the recasts. They've also been giving him some of the best dialogue (how...

Re: Dameon Clarke vs Dale Wilson

I'd choose Wilson since almost everything I've heard of Clarke's Cell sounds rather... weird. Like he had to ANNOUNCE everything. Wilson was a like that too, but Clarke's really bombastic voice really overdid it. I also hated Clarke's Semi-Perfect/Form 2 voice; I don't recall Wilson doing any modifi...

Hey, that's not fair, Chris Sabat had nothing to do with the censorship. :P

Re: DragonBall Z Kai TV Network Version (CW4Kids\Toonzai) Edits!

I feel bad for kids these days. Back in the day of 80's and 90's cartoons were not nearly as censored. Especially nose-picking, that takes the cake. Uh, they edited the nose-picking back in the 90s dub of DBZ too. Also I think you're doing some selective remembering if you think the 80s and 90s did...

Re: Dragonball Kai (FUNimation English) Dub: General Discussion

I'm really surprised about the amount of songs they've left untranslated so far. Sure, it's only two, but that's still a lot for an English-dubbed and edited anime on western television. The only other show I can think of that had untranslated songs was Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo and its theme music, which I...

Re: Kai Episode 80 (7th November 2010)

From the clips I've heard, it's as though Wakamoto is trying to play the part as more of a "freak", with all these strange creepy mannerisms. Particularly the way his voice gets extremely high while screaming and the strange insect-like noises he makes in his first form (I haven't seen man...

Re: Toriyama question. (Perhaps some irony?)

It's not really "ironic", just coincidental. Sorry to nitpick, but I'm one of those people who don't like it when people call something ironic when really it's just a coincidence... Like "I was at the mall yesterday." "Really? Wow, I was there today! How ironic!"

Re: Immortality?

I assume that, if Garlic Jr was given the Perfect Cell/Kid Buu treatment, there would perhaps be a tiny part of him that would always survive no matter what, and from there he would regenerate completely.

Re: Dragonball Vs. Non Dragonball

I actually thought a bit more about the whole Superman VS Dragon Ball thing... Two things come to mind. First, Superman both gets his energy from and is able to survive inside the sun. It's been shown in a few Dragon Ball movies that the major villains (Cooler, Brolli) can be defeated by being shot ...

Re: Ocean Studios' "Dragon Ball Kai" dub seems to be coming...

Unfortunately whenever I think of Clarke's Cell, I immediately go to the line from the Budokai games where he uses the Spirit Bomb (I've no idea why they gave Cell that ability anyway since he never actually used it in the show...) "Okay planet, gimme that stupid energy!" Admittedly that's...

Re: Ocean Studios' "Dragon Ball Kai" dub seems to be coming...

I just felt like Clarke always sounded like some kind of announcer... Especially when he said lines like "YET ANOTHER FIGHTER..... YOU COULD HAVE SAVED!" When Wilson had to do the same line, I think he pulled it off much better. Just personal preference... Neither of them really match Waka...

You can hear it here at about 3.20 in: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vz1ilCZznd4

That and some of Dale Wilson's ultra hammy performance that I can't help but love. I'd certainly take him over the Funimation Cell any day.

Re: Ocean Studios' "Dragon Ball Kai" dub seems to be coming...

One rather strange Ocean dub thing (I assume they're Ocean dub only, at least the second one; please let me know if I'm incorrect) I noticed was that Cell used two odd attacks names, different from the usual dub standard. The first was when he duplicated Freeza's remote control disc things when he f...
