Re: "Dragon Ball Z Kai: The Final Chapters" FUNimation English Dub Official Announcement and Discussion Thread

No English dub could make up for Boo Kai's faults. How anyone could be excited for such a clusterfuck is beyond me. Even considering the faults of Boo arc Kai, which to some extent were shared by the original Kai production, being able to finally dismiss the legacy dub as completely irrelevant is (...

Re: "Dragon Ball Z Kai: The Final Chapters" FUNimation English Dub Official Announcement and Discussion Thread

Here's the video where Justin Cook talks about Vegetto: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K6UdyddrxM4&feature=youtu.be&t=1358 He says that Sean did an impersonation of Chris for the Vegetto voice. Now, I suppose you could interpret that as Sean being the only one in the recording studio at th...

Re: "Dragon Ball Z Kai: The Final Chapters" FUNimation English Dub Official Announcement and Discussion Thread

Wait... are you just being hopeful, or do you actually have inside information? If the latter, do you know if there's been a set date for release (not asking for a date, just if there is one)? Heheh, no, I'm not being hopeful, I actually do have inside information. All I will say as to how I acquir...

Re: "Dragon Ball Z Kai: The Final Chapters" FUNimation English Dub Official Announcement and Discussion Thread

I'm sorry, but how is it a downer? I thought people wanted everything to be as close to the Japanese as possible in terms of translation & voice acting. Honestly, I was hoping for something new. As long as they adhere to the dialogue faithfully, for this character specifically, I wouldn't mind ...

Re: "Dragon Ball Z Kai: The Final Chapters" FUNimation English Dub Official Announcement and Discussion Thread

Hey guys. Got word from the man himself, Sean Schemmel. I tweeted him about the voice of Vegito & he told me himself that, "Vegito has always been voiced by Chris and I since we started and will remain that way." It's all right here if you wanna read for yourselves. https://twitter.co...

Re: "Dragon Ball Z Kai: The Final Chapters" FUNimation English Dub Official Announcement and Discussion Thread

What I'm mostly looking forward to is that same feeling I had while watching the first three arcs of Kai. A blend of nostalgia mixed with the joy of experiencing a brand new and improved performance. And another thing I'm pleased about: when you combine this with Dragon Ball, the english dub will n...

Re: "Dragon Ball Z Kai: The Final Chapters" FUNimation English Dub Official Announcement and Discussion Thread

So is it conclusively confirmed that Vegetto will only have a single voice and not double? Why would they do that. That's a total cop out. How so? If you ask me, they're making it HARDER on themselves by doing it single-voice. Now if the voice ends up being badly acted, there won't be any filters f...

Re: Inconsistencies with the US English Dub

The narrator sounds like the one they got for One Piece, who I don't mind. Just as a fun bit of trivia, the narrator for the One Piece dub is Bill Jenkins, who voices The Grand Elder/Guru in the Kai dub. The Kai narrator is Doc Morgan (who...doesn't actually seem to have any anime dubbing credits t...

Re: Inconsistencies with the US English Dub

You forgot the biggest recast of all! The narrator!! Right, but I see that as a "pick your poison" type of situation. The narrator sounds like the one they got for One Piece, who I don't mind. I, generally, like Kyle Hebert, but considering he didn't play Ox King very much in Kai & di...

Re: Inconsistencies with the US English Dub

See? Where you see problems with the voices, taken on their own merits, which is what most dubs shoot for, they fit. Well, for me, they really don't. Like I said, we honestly need more recasts in my opinion. Meh. Different strokes. It's not 4Kids though. Even though the scripting of Z's dub was alm...

Re: Inconsistencies with the US English Dub

You guys realize you're talking about the original Z dub, right? With Kai's dub & the recent films, they have gotten much closer to the original Japanese version in terms of accuracy. Really, watch Kai with the English dub. It's a hell of a dub. No, specifically with those two voices, I'm talki...

Re: Inconsistencies with the US English Dub

If we're REALLY going to get into the way voice actors sound, why not talk about some of the ones people have with the Japanese version? Goku, Gohan, Goten, & most other people in their family are voiced by Masako Nozawa & she sounds like a woman when voicing every one of them. Same goes for...

Re: Inconsistencies with the US English Dub

Just outline for me, sub fan who disavows the English dub, which voices annoy you? I'm genuinely curious. Well, here's a list. Goku and Gohan - Stephanie Nadolny Piccolo and Vegeta- Chris Sabat. Note: I'm ok with these not being recasted because the actor changed and improved immensely. Kamesennin ...

Re: Inconsistencies with the US English Dub

No. What would make you think that? Because you said the "original dub" the same way I did. You meant the original Japanese version? If so, then I definitely disagree. Kai fixed some the things I hated in the original FUNi dub but not everything. I definitely wish there were more recasts....

Re: Inconsistencies with the US English Dub

You agree with the few people here who said they liked some of the recasts & think there should've been MORE? A lot of the voices fit & are definitely better than the original dub. There was no way they weren't going to keep them. So, you're agreeing with me? No. What would make you think t...

Re: Inconsistencies with the US English Dub

[spoiler]I have no problem with any of the recasts. Matter of fact, I prefer every one of them to the original FUNi dub. I much prefer Clinkenbeard for Gohan as I've never much cared for Nadolny. Not only that, Clinkenbeard's acting is far superior to Nadolny's, though some of that may have to do w...

Re: Inconsistencies with the US English Dub

I remember watching the dub of Kai with the subs for the Japanese version (I do this with all anime when available to see how close the dubs get) & I distinctly remember it being in both the dub & sub. It's not in the original. The scene you're referring to is a gag where Kaio is hopping ar...

Re: Inconsistencies with the US English Dub

It's the same kind of thinking that went "let's turn potara fusion into the fusion dance, only with earrings instead!" & never thought that it didn't make sense, r went too far.
