Dragon Ball Z Kai now airing in Korea

Post by wjbraden » Tue Feb 01, 2011 3:37 pm

After some searching, I found out that Dragon Ball Z Kai is now has a Korean dub (yes it has the "Z" branding just like all the other foreign dubs). It airs on the popular anime channel "Anibox" and the openings and ending are dubbed into Korean.

Watch it here: http://channel.pandora.tv/channel/video ... KAI&page=1

Freeza's voice was horrible. Did they put a woman in that role?

Having never seen the Korean dub I didn't know that.

I could tell right away that Freeza was voiced by a woman. He sounded like an evil old witch when he was laughing.

There are 3 dubs of Z in Korea. In Champ dub, the most popular one, these characters were dubbed by woman: Krilin, Freeza, Future Trunks, Teen Gohan, Sharpner, Kaioshin, and every child

Wait, I thought there were only two dubs, the SBS and Champ dub? Which dubs, dubbed which episodes?

Champ dubbed all DB/DBZ/GT episodes. I don't know much about the SBS dub, but at least it was cancelled about in the middle of Z. Tooniverse dubbed the Android arc and the Buu arc of Z, and all of GT episodes.

Wow! Besides Freeza, everyone else in the first episode sounds fantastic. I'm especially loving Kuririn and Raditz.

Oh geez. The opening was dubbed on top of the karaoke version with Japanese backing vocals :roll:

Gohan, Kuririn, Bulma, and Raditz sound pretty good. Not fond of Goku's voice. Not sure about Piccolo's.
Kentai wrote:Son Gokuu is a fascinating character anyway, because he is - at face value, anyway - an idiot savant. The victim of violent head trauma as an infant [...] he's a simple bumpkin with a fair share of brain damage who's natural talents to work out what's wrong compensate for his broad lack of common sense. But he's also a fighter, through and through [...] he fight until he has, in no uncertain terms, beaten his enemy on terms they can both acknowledge. He doesn't want to kill anyone, or even prove that he can win... he just wants to know he can. He's an ineffably charming bastard who's manly leanings were really incendental, and yes, the fact that he was voiced by a squeaky woman made the combination perhaps all the more charming.

Freeza's laugh was sexy as all hell.

Gohan sounds so cute in this. Kuririn and Bulma's voices were just as good. To me, It sounds as if Mayumi Tanaka and Hiromi Tsuru are speaking Korean.

Not only that, but the very end of the Opening fades out before the guitar solo near the end of the Japanese single. Man, talk about being lazy!

Anyways, I thought most of the voices were pretty damn good, with the exception of Freeza, who sounds... Well, creepy. :shock:

DBZ bootlegs have the movie 9 cover with the pioneer movie 2 description on the back and the disc actually has a Japanese soap opera in MEPG2. :roll:

Pretty good dub. I think I'm gonna laugh my ass of when they get to the Freeza saga.

Freeza sounds hideous in the Korean dub. Can't comment on everyone else yet. I only looked at the Korean dub briefly. Still waiting on TVB for the Cantonese dub whenever that shows up.
