Re: "Dragon Ball Super" FUNimation Dub Official Discussion Thread

What's wrong with Kid Goku's new voice? I think it's amazing and suits him perfectly. I feel the same way. The only arguments I ever hear against Colleen's Goku and Gohan are that they are grating (which I disagree with, but I guess I can understand), or that they sound too much like Luffy (which I...

Re: Goku's Morality

I figured when he killed in DB, it was always more in self defense, it wasn't until Piccolo showed up that he showed some intenet on killing an enemy. Then after his training with Kami, I think he has mercy if the villian is willing to take it. However even he does limits like Frieza pushing him unt...

Re: Was there a place for Yamcha & Chiaotzu in Resurrection 'F' (Dragon Ball Z/Super)?

I didn't mind Chautzu was left behind, since the saiyan saga, he has long became more of a background character (Outside of filler which gave him a win against Guldo), however with Yamcha, I figured since he was featured prominetly in the end credits of the 3rd ending, I figured Toei would feature h...

Should Kai Have Been Reanimated?

So I personally didn't care much for Kai since it's just a DBZ without the filler. (I can skip episodes or fast forward through scenes on my DVDs) However I do appreciate that it brought in a new generation of fans. The one thing I think is a missed opportunity is reanimating it, now don't get me wr...

Re: Kai vs. Z Dub

One thing I always do, (while I personally thought Kai was kind of pointless at least for us older fans, it did bring in a newer generation of fans) is that I recommend Kai instead of Z. Since it's easier to recommend a 170 episode series instead of a 291 series. Also since the Kai dub isn't as chee...

Re: What stories will they have after the Tournament of Power?

With how this recent episode panned out, I wouldn't mind having an episode after the tournament flashback on how Goten and Trunks did protecting 17's island.

Re: Does Goku care about Goten at all?

I think Goku does care about Goten, unfortunetly the show doesn't focus on it as often. We may have a few rare bonding moments between them like episode 1 and the the two parter where goku orders a hit on himself.

Re: Goku confirms this at last

Didn't the original dub imply he only acts heroic just to have an excuse to fight strong opponets? Like when he told Uub he will protect the earth someday but Vegeta said he was only doing it so he can fight Uub when he is fully developed.

Re: Kai vs. Z Dub

I mean, how can anyone say that Funimation Z is better? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iEncqyKH9M4 Nostalgia is the only answer. I partially agree, The Kai dub is better handled and you can tell Sean has come a long way compared to when he did the original scene. However, I do enjoy that original ...

Re: Super's Manga vs Super's Anime Discussion

The only two things that bug me about the Super Manga. 1. They skipped Revival of F, while this is more of a minor nitpick, it feels like the pacing is a bit off between Battle of Gods arc and Champ arc. They should have either started off with the Champa arc or just add the 3 chapters of the promot...

Re: Kai vs. Z Dub

Now don't get me wrong, I said at times. I think Sean Schemmel does a great job from the Cell Games of the original dub onwards to today compared how he originally was in season 3. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9bPRFe5GRA This here I believe is a good example why the Kai Dub is better then the or...

Re: Kai vs. Z Dub

Copying this from another thread. While I believe the Kai dub is better translated but the voice actors sound bored at times,(Except Sabat) maybe since with the original series, redubbing the series for the season sets, and video games, it seems like they just seem bored at times with the dialouge. ...

Re: Why do Vegeta fans get mad whenever Goku gets a kill?

Vegeta did carry the champa arc I felt. Sure he didn't defeat Hit, but he had the most fights and defeated half the team himself. Even giving advise to Cabba while fighting.

Re: Bones/Perks given to non-Goku Characters!

Krillin got to kill 3 Saibamen to avenge Yamcha's death. He also helped Gohan defeat Vegeta with using the Spirit Bomb. He and Gohan killed two of Freeza's foot soldiers. Saved dende from Dodoria and even cut off Freeza's tail. They gave him a win with a tournament in the 25th tournament. He may not...

Re: Biggest retcon in DragonBall?

Does Dragonball Minus count as a Retcon? Before that Bardock was just an anime special that later had a panel shot in the manga. Then Minus came and changed the character and contradicts the special. But since the original special was anime only, would it have been considered apart of the original m...

Re: Unpopular DB opinions

I actually enjoyed the Garlic Jr. Saga, for what it was anyways. Nothing to spectacular but it was nice to give Gohan, Krillin and Piccolo an arc without Goku coming in last minute to save them.

Did Super regress Goku's character development?

Hello, new guy here, sorry if this topic was covered before but this was a subject I have been thinking about for a while. While Goku has always been a simple character, I wouldn't call him stupid. I reread the manga series last summer and at least through out the series it feels like Goku has matur...
