Swearing in the dub...

Discussion, generally of an in-universe nature, regarding any aspect of the franchise (including movies, spin-offs, etc.) such as: techniques, character relationships, internal back-history, its universe, and more.

Quoted for funny.

I was surprised at 13 saying "Ass," too. Made up for the whole trucker voice thing they gave him, in my opinion.

I adored that cheesy line. It sounded so wrong coming from Vegeta yet amusing at the same time.
Yeah, I was sad to see it go, since it amused me so....especially since they left in "mondo cool" for both Krillin and Vegeta, which I thought was more dumb than funny.

For the Season 1 and 2 Box Set's...

Season 1 - Only time I remember anything of swearing was when Vegeta was in Ape form and Goku threw a Ki blast in his eye, he said "Damn, you" I think

Season 2 - There was surprisingly quite a lot. Atleast 10 occurances. Vegeta telling Kiwi he was going to see him in hell when he killed him(I think he said the same to Dodoria), a couple of Frieza's henchmen in one of the Namekian villages, Krillin a couple times, a few more I forgot

Karin also says "Hell" in the figurative context when Goku heads off to battle ("Give 'em hell, Goku!") and Kuririn slips a "Damn" while he's thinking of how to catch Vegeta with the Genki-dama. And yeah, Season 2 has probably the most and riskiest swearing in the entire FUNi dub franchise. Especially considering it all aired with a TV PG rating, Recoome's middle finger and all

Krillin to Dende, Season 2 Boxset: "Damn, we're screwed."

Captain Ginyu, commenting on his lame opening-lines: "Whoa, that really sucked a big one." (Not a swear, but it implies fellatio :P)

I'm enjoying this. :lol:

Is it just me or did Dende say "Don't piss off the god of love" in a late Namek Saga episode.

Not just you, he says it. That slipped my mind when I brought up all the swears from memory earlier. Funny that it's even retained in the edited version for all us Cartoon Network viewers to see. :P

Yeah it was even shown in the UK, which amazes me. "Don't Piss off the god of love" at about mid day.

Also we got every Dragonball movie shown on TV with horrible "LET THAT CHILD ALONE" dubbing. Even though the dialog was so bad, the movies remained uncut.

So at Mid-day I was watching Vegeta and Goku getting sliced by Meta Coolers, and blood going everywhere. They also showed the Legend of Shenlong movie, complete with nipple pokes, all for the benefit of the 11 year old audience :P

P.S I'm NOT 11.
