Well not exactually but their is a good reason why I chose this anime series because it's none other than Funimation's recently licenced series Shin Chan which in my oppinion has to be one of their best dubs ever, with a whole lot of humour and the biggest amount of cussing ever!!!
I know many of you give Funimation a lot of grief due to their bad dialouge and over the top acting and going over the top in the grunting department.
But when you see a series like this which has a whole lot of cussing, dirty toilet humour and even sexual jokes... it just goes to show how well Funimation can use their tallent for dubbing shows at their best.
Here see for yourself...

Also note that Shin Chan's mother is voiced by none other than Cynthia Cranz who is also does one badass voice for Chi Chi in DBZ, and it's funny to see her saying a bunch of sexual and dirty jokes in nearly all of her lines and more!!!
This could even be better than my 2nd faveourite dub by Funimation which is Yu yu hakusho

The Ultimate Funimation Fangirl.

That was why when her character was beating up her husband and yelling, "Say my name, bitch!" though it was likely me with my mind in the gutter, the thought popped in my head, "I think I know how Gohan was conceived now."

Despite really wanting to hear that, the show is so ugly I was forced to either close the window or rip my eyes out.

The line about the videos that her and the dad made was hilarious.

hahaha Yeah, that animation style (if you can call it that ^_^") is absolutely terrible.

You've seriously got to wonder how Goku and Chichi managed to concieve two children. Considering how clueless Goku is, do you think Chichi had to run him through an entire sex-ed curriculum?
Can't imagine what that particular wedding night was like.

I think we may be over-exaggerating Goku's sexual naivety just a bit. I'm sure he was clueless at first, but once ChiChi showed him... things... I'm sure he figured it out.

Yet you'll watch an anime that has more badly animated scenes than good like so?

That may be true but to me it still looks waaaaaaay better than this show.

But there's less ChiChi.
Anyway, ShinChan dub is actually supposedly really bad. They really upped the adult humor, from what I've heard. Too much nudity for a kid's show in America, and not enough cursing for an adult's. It's like one of the ShinChan dubs they made over here, of the two avaiable.
Of course, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
[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]

Well, of course. A glass of water laced with sleeping pills and a subsequent supply of viagra.

if anyone has a scan of that manga panel from "Crayon Shinchan" where Shinnosuke wears a halloween mask of Frieza, i'd be pleased.

The world is your's.

You know, when you think of how absurdly strong Goku is, and how little control he tends to have at times (like when he launched Chichi through a wall and a tree simply by patting her on the back), wouldn't that have potentially deadly ramifications during sex?
I mean, if Goku is in the, uh, heat of passion, he could accidentally pulverize Chichi into chowder.

Goku: Sure! Set up on the couch. I gotta go back upstairs, ChiChi's in the mood, and the gettin's good.
~Later~

I don't know. The Shin Chan dub is good for me until they throw in post-2000 pop-culture/American references and jokes, then it becomes absolutely retarded for me for various reasons like, it was made in 1992, in Japan.
I know there were Japanese pop-culture jokes in Crayon Shin Chan, but I don't want to hear a joke about WoW or Jessica Simpson in an anime made before they were even relevant or invented. It's kinda like they thought that nobody in America would watch it if it didn't have those things.
Be grateful the filler in Dragon Ball doesn't suck like the 3rd arc of Rurouni Kenshin.
