Kai's rating are starting to rise again it's probably because of OPM and nearing of the end of the Cell arc.
The English dub for One Punch Man is pretty well like by people so far. I personally like the dub expect for Genos voice. It sounds too deep in my opinion.
Dbzfan94 wrote:So we're approaching the beginning of the Cell Games, correct? I guess we'll know soon if Buu Kai is going on Toonami
Kai has reached EP 81. The episode where Perfect Cell survives Vegeta's Final Flask and kicks Vegeta's ass and USSJ Trunks and Cell fight.

I'm not that knowledgeable with the Kai episode numbers, but if I can guess, the Cell Games will start with Mr. Satan and his goons around 84-85?
The Cell Games actually officially start in EP 87.

Prepare yourselves for the new public service anti-drinking special based on DRAGON BALL, where our favorite characters get drunk and fight in a drunken splendor, forgetting to control their KI and destroying whole galaxies among themselves.
You can't get ye Final Flask.

It's believable someone would name a mouse Jack.
It's not at all believable someone would call a mouse Mouse.
Takes you straight out of the experience.
Neither line is good, but Funi's is so much worse [when compared to Blue Water's].
You guys aren't gonna let me live that down, are you?
