Just a little side question for the people ranking the accuracy of the subtitles. How accurate are the subtitles on the Dragon Ball DVDs done by the other translator (his name escapes me right now).

Ah, I thought his first name was Clyde, but I wasn't sure. He has a very bland webpage, I guess it's just meant as an online resume.

His more artsy one, full of sprites and his blog and junk, is gone for some reason.

Something to mention is that his subs are mainly held in high regard, however many regional dialects - such as Goku's hick way of speaking - are either removed or toned down. I'm not sure if that's a standard practice or not.
[quote="Brakus"]For all the flack that FUNimation gets on this forum for their quote about DBZ, there's some modicum of truth to it: a 9-year-old is born every day. Or in some cases, "reborn". DBZ may be a kids' show, but it's been so close to so many hearts all over Japan, America, and quite possibly, even the world.[/quote]
