And all is right with the world again. No more Engrish openings! Also, glad to see Nate finally crossover from fan covers to the real deal. He is a really great singer. Too bad Funimation couldn't dub the openings for My Hero Academia, his cover of OP 1 is way, way better than the original.

Good for him!

It was a lot better than I was expecting too.

Just sucks that if last week is anything to go off of, it'll be cut from now until when or if super takes the first slot again

The ending theme (Evil Angel and Righteous Devil) has now updated so that it uses the second variant now, with the "moving manga pictures."

For those who missed Nathan Sharp's cover, here it is.
Personally, despite only hearing about this guy's music today, I think Nathan did a good job with the material.

I thought the English ToP opening was Decent, still well prefer the Japaneses, but for anyone that like it allot, glad to hear it! :)

Like with the Real ToP it is going to be a good month or more till we get to FINALLY hear some of the Main New Fighter cast like Toppo, Jiren, Kale, Caulifla and espically Ribrianne/Brianne!

I just hope we get early Teases from Funimation on them cause I am eager to Hear them all! :thumbup:

Especially Ribrianne/Brianne since sadly by the Calendar, episode 91 will not Premiere until December 8th 2018 as long as their is not breaks or interruptions on Toonami. That is to long of a wait to finally hear what My Brianne/Ribrianne's English Voice Actress sounds like. :cry:

Any idea about who did sing ED7? It sounded pretty darn good to me.

Ok yeah, it's been confirmed by Nate himself that he performed the cover.

Lavender, Basil, and Bergamo are coming up. I wonder who will voice them?

Yikes.

I dunno why people like this english rendition of the opening, as if the added harmonies to the singing was bad enough the guy doesn't know how to sing through his damn consonants, not to mention he just jumps to the end of the phrase on a held note. Japor should have been used for this because he at least knows how to sing the style of this music despite this stretching his range, this sounds like a bad mix of country and pop.

I'd even take an "engrish" version by the original group than what we got

It wasn't Mark De Groot but it was as good. Thank you, Chris Sabat for getting Nate to do that OP :)

I have listened to Limit Break so many times and heard so many covers (it's a good song yo) that it feels weird to be watching an official English version. Nate's isn't bad, I've listened to better covers, but also plenty of worse ones.

Trio de Dangers next ep, Toppo the episode after, Kefla coming soon to Xenoverse 2. A lot of big VA drops on the way.

I have to say, I really enjoyed the opening by Nate. He did very well :)

Wasn't a big fan of the dubbed ToP opening, although I got used to the Japanese version big time.

Dubbed Chaoizetsu Dynamic grew on me though, so who knows.

Performances in the actual episode were superb, much like the rest of this dub, so am confident it will stay that way.

I'm eager to find out if we will get a Scott McNeil cameo in this dub, maybe for a Universe 6 Namekian?

Huh, surprised to see people split on the English version of OP2. I thought they did an excellent job, especially compared to OP1 that I really wasn't fond of in English.
