Well...getting back to the topic at hand :D

I'm not a big fan of the severed 2nd opening. I've seen YouTubers edit better than that :D

Only dubs that matter are DB, Kai, & Super. Nothing else.

I don't mean to be that guy, but I can totally spot the Trump supporters in the last two pages.

By the way, does anyone know if they confirmed Jiren's english voice actor yet?

He doesn't speak until ep.97, so I'm not expecting it for a while. Most people seem to assume they'll stick with Seitz, but who knows.

I look forward to seeing him and McCoy work off each other. I’ve always thought that Meredith McCoy’s 18 has better chemistry with Chuck Huber’s 17 compared to Colleen Clinkenbeard’s (no disrespect to her).

Soooo, I'm still waiting for the Season BRs to fully dive into this, are you guys still enjoying the dub? Keeping up the better acting and everything from Kai?

The acting quality isn't much different, but the script's been played around with a lot. Nothing deal-breaking personally, but it's more than obvious when they sneak in a silly little reference or joke that wasn't there in the Japanese version.

Then don't. Politics have no place in this thread. Nor do petty insults based off of them.

That is a fucking rich response coming from the guy who said this:

just because they're hiring black people now.

Realistically, setting diversity quotas in any field isn't really the smartest thing for any company, since you might not be able to fill the quota, or would deny more qualified people of jobs, but FUNi hasn't set one. They've just hired a BUNCH of new actors. FUNi has, in recent years, just hired a lot of new actors in general. I mean, with the amount of characters in One Piece, they've kinda needed to. Here, they just needed to hire a bunch of actors at once rather than gradually over the course of 10 years. They have the capital to do so, so it's not a surprise.

I doubt FUNi cast black people to please the SJWs. It's more like Sabat is taking advantage of the now bigger talent pool in Dallas.

Huber is always great as 17. Really glad he's getting the chance to come back. :thumbup:

I think we got a dub-induced plot hole in this episode. Goku acts surprised to learn that Uub is Buu reincarnated even though he told Vegeta about it right before the U6 tournament. In the subbed version of this episode Goku does remember that.

Wow. You know what? I’m Glad they have a diversity quota. To be honest, the way they portrayed Killa in the original Funimation dub was absolutely wrong. Instead of making him speak like a normal black person, they made him sound completely illiterate and couldn’t understand a single thing he said. But guys like Mr. Tennek obviously don’t see anything wrong with that. There’s a reason why there’s Affirmative Action. If it was up to individuals to make choices, MOST (obviously not all) people would feel comfortable hiring their own. That’s a fact.

Now back on topic. Does anyone know if there’s a date set for the last episode of Super for the English Dub?
How i predict the tournament will end:
