I've always wondered why most European DB dubs were based off the French dub?

Was France one of the first European countries to dub the show?

Nope, Italy was the first country that dubbed DB then France did.

Because AB has rights for most of Europe.

I'm also wondering why most international Goku voices sound like He-Man?

Because there're based on the French dub. :P
Oh and in my opinion they didn't all sound like He-Man, but like generic young and deeper super heroes, which isn't better of course. Except the Danish and Hungarian Goku (and the Italian of course) all European Gokus suck IMO.

Yeah "Big Green" dub Goku was awful. "Come Magic Cloud" was a bad line from him.

You've probably seen this one before...

But tell what you think about the performance and Arabic voices of Goku, Vegeta, Yajirobe, Baba, Roushi and Kaioh

You know what? Those voices are actually very well-done a fitting! I liked them a lot!

Yes, they did. And we had the episode previews for the first time, although with VERY subpar dialogue.

Too bad they ruined the Kamehameha scene, because as said before, most of the voices are quite good.

That, and we had the preview for the Goku Jr. special with the audio for the preview for the first episode in the Super 17 saga... :roll:
