Ah, see, this is why I left the first time in early '08. A bunch of whining about why the sub is superior, or vise versa. What the fuck, people?

Should it really be such a big deal that someone *MEGAGASP!* actually enjoys the dub more than the sub? I mean, really?

If you really think it's such a big deal, then you should jump off a fucking cliff and let natural selection run its course.

Most sub fans here are actually being pretty civil. Really, most of this commotion was caused by one troll.

Why are you dub fans so defensive and insecure? You're the majority on the forum for fuck sakes!

No one is being defensive or insecure! All Saiyavenger said was that it is pointless to argue about which one is better!

I'd rather this not be locked, so back on subject: I always thought that Goku's nightmare was fairly dark, but it seemed fitting. IMO the Android/Cell arc was the darkest part of the series.

Can you not read? I said "OR VISE VERSA". Yeah, I love the dub, but I'm not gonna say "HEY YOU LIKE THE SUB SO BURN IN HELL." No. That's not how I roll. I actually, y'know, RESPECT OTHER PEOPLE'S OPINIONS.

Probably counting all of the registered users who have only made 1 post! :lol:

I've always seen it as a fair balance of Sub and Dub fans on here though. I have seen neither the sub fans gang up and over power the dub fans, or vice-versa.

If you would read my damn posts, you would see I had no problem with anybody putting down FUNimation's dub. Hell I make fun of it casually. My problems were with you, your trolling, your constant generalizations of people and your constant childish insulting.

Congratulations, you are a

Seriously, what the fuck is your problem, man? He didn't even comment on you making fun of FUNi, but you're being an ass about it. You aren't having an intelligent discussion about whether the original version is better than the dub, all you're doing is bashing dub fans.

At this point, maybe this thread should be locked. Does anyone want to discuss the topic? It was a very interesting scene.

And NOT a fan of douchebaggery.

You see, VEX is a pretty damn cool guy. Yeah, he's a subbie. He's very much proclaimed his dislike for the dub. But he doesn't have a freakish superiority complex when it comes to interacting with dubbies. He treats everybody fairly around here, regardless of their preference.

You, on the other hand, are nothing but a pathetic, hypocritical sycophant.

The only sycophant here is YOU Saiyavenger2941. You whiny little xenophobic high-school age FUNimation dub fans go around denouncing any fan of the tried and true original version as "elitists' while at the same time harbouring your own morbid disdain for fans of the original. God forbid should you monolingual muppets read subtitles or *gasp* learn another language!

I can smell your contempt with this statement: "Yeah, he's a subbie."

TROLL POST, NOTHING TO SEE HERE.

Anyway, another scene that I just thought was kinda heavy was when Cell stepped on Android 16. I don't know why, but that always kind of hit me. It's not even that bad compared to other scenes, but theres just something about it.
Yamcha: Do you remember the spell to release him - do you know all the words?
Bulma: Of course! I'm not gonna pull a Frieza and screw it up!
Master Roshi: Bulma, I think Frieza failed because he wore too many clothes!
