Re: Funimation Leaked Outtakes
At the same time though, why were these recordings kept online all these years? Unless this was leaked by someone who savdd these recordings for a rainy day, I have to imagine FUNimation or someone affiliated with them carelessly left these files online and unknowingly allowed a third party access ...

Re: Vic Mignogna
If what Chuck Hüber is saying about Sabat and Schemmel is true, it definitely doesn't make them look good. There are things in the response that seem valid (such as Erica's affidavit), but not much besides that. At this point, I just want to hear the verdict.

Re: Funimation Leaked Outtakes
I wonder if this is end of it, or we'll be getting more revelations. The dub voice actors' reputation is getting tarnished and it split the fandom even more than it already was in this regard. These things won't be forgotten that easily. Schemmel or Sabat should take some action or announcement, no...

Re: Funimation Leaked Outtakes
What people need to realize is that these clips come from a different Funimation. The Funimation of 90s to early 00s is not the same Funimation we know today. Heck, that contract I keep on seeing cited might not have even been the contract the cast signed originally. Voice actors do this all the tim...

Re: Should Z get yet another redub in English?
Yes, I absolutely think it needs a total redub. The FUNimation dub has too many deep-seated problems that will never go away. Kai 1.0 was good, but what I want is a company that has absolutely zero concerns about the existing FUNi/Ocean/Whoever crowd being upset and simply makes script and casting ...

Re: Great performances by DB cast in other series?
One I can think of is Chris Sabat as All Might in MHA. Couldn't think of anyone else who could portray that role in English. While we're talking English VAs, Sonny Strait gave such a gripping performance as Maes Hughes in FMA Brotherhood I'm not as familiar with other roles the Japanese cast has pla...

Re: A question to those who saw the Saban dub long after the fact
Getting back to the original topic at hand, the Ocean dub is largely just a curiosity for me. I got into the series around the time that the redub starting to get going with the in-house cast, and my only exposure to the Ocean cast was the Over 9,000 meme and finding the odd old dub episode on YouTu...

Re: Should Z get yet another redub in English?
They missed their chance twice: Once in 2005 and another in 2010 with Kai. I think it's too late in the game for them to redub Z. If the rights for Z ever lapse, I doubt we'll get a redub. Not sure if they really missed their chance with Kai other than not going far enough with the recasting. 2005 ...

Personally, if the story calls for it, but otherwise, representation doesn't trump story.

Re: On the subject of missing insert songs in Funimation's dub
The subtitled version is based off of those masters, correct? It would seem to me that they weren't that shitty, as they included the insert songs. However, the BGM in the dub is much more high quality audio wise, so who knows.

Re: On the subject of missing insert songs in Funimation's dub
It might simply be due to them not wanting to pay the licensing fees for Broadcast use to Japan's equivalent of ASCAP or HarryFox, which would explain why they're not in the English dub of Dragon Ball the series but are in Mystical Adventure, as I don't think Mystical Adventure was on TV at any poi...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" FUNimation Dub Official Discussion Thread
I thought the dub was actually pretty good. Only two major complaints: 1. Could they have said Son Goku at least once? Some of the lines they wrote to cover it (such as Beerus's "Are you finished?") aren't that good. 2. That English cover of Ultimate Battle sucked. Other than that, it's a ...
