Series dialog vs Game dialog

Post by Anonymous Friend » Wed Mar 21, 2007 11:53 pm

Were there any pieces of dialog in the recent Dragonball Z games that you wish they used in the dub? I'm refering to recorded voice lines. I thought that being that some of those lines had been recorded it would make it's way into the season sets.

If this is better suited for the regular discussion page, please feel free to migrate it there.

Seeing as I watch the show in Japanese anyway, and the fact the script is plenty good, I'd say no.

I'd like to see 18 go around calling people skanks, myself. :lol:

Wait, dude... Wha-!? Where was this!?

Anyway, I wish that the dub was like the games. The games have a way more faithful translation of the source material than the anime's dub.

I thought they did a great job on all the lines in the first Budokai's story mode, probably because of how much less dialouge was recorded. Of course, it doesn't matter to me, as A. I watch the show in Japanese, and B. I'm not planning on buying any of the season box sets,

Wow... I'll have to ask my friends about that! Any particular fights where those lines appear? I wanna hear that next time I go to my friend's place. I bought the Japanese version of the game.

I know that the skank one happens if you have #18 vs Zangya. Not sure about the other one, I saw the skank comment on youtube.

Chris Sabat did much better for the Super Vegeta scene on B1 than the series. That's an opinion I formed before I utterly reformed to the Japanese version.

I heard Zangya say "Your man's knda cute". Looks like 18 DOES love Krillin.

This is an easy one:

Broli: Freak? No, I'm the Devil! Haha!

Bardock: I will change my fate...Kakarrot's fate...and your fate Freeza!

Wicked lines that got butchered for the dub, and then mysteriously appear in Sparking Neo. Almost makes me feel like doing some 're-dubbing' of my own. :twisted:

You got me for a moment. I thought that Bardock actually said that to Broli. XD

Well Broly does say that line to Bardock in Sparking Neo. Plus after the fight Bradock says "Just like any monster your weak!" or something like that.

What I meant was Bardock saying that to Broli, as if it were a game error or something. :?
