Freeza and regeneration

There is no significant difference in original and American Frieza's voice or character. Both actors voiced him as being foppish and overly polite as he does horrible acts. The American Frieza is a bit more feminine. But thats to be expected since he is voiced by a woman.

Well I never really heard the Japanese Frieza attempting to become the next big comedian on Planet Namek though. (Where DOES he get his stuff?)

What? I- I... I just don't know what to say. Have you ever listened to them? Yes, Ryusei Nakao played him a bit feminine, but both Pauline Newstone (Ocean Group) and Linda Young (FUNimation) played him as a woman who "caresses balls" giggles.

I never heard him as a woman. Just a very foppish man. If I had to choose I would choose the original in a heartbeat. But I think his voice is better. BUt its more him being very good. Than a value judgment on Linda Young.

Only joke I heard him do was the one he made after he ripped off Nail's arm. Even that was done in a very polite condescending way. Nothing that would be out of character for Frieza.

There was quite another big one (but obviously only in the anime).
Something about five minutes...

You want out of character for Freeza? What about all the not-too-subtle homosexual innuendo that Funimation gave him?

Who wouldn't go gay for Goku's rippling pecs?

If he was a dog I'd rub his belly if he was a cat I'd give him warm milk but since he's neither of these things I'll just say FUCK YEAH.

Freeza wouldn't. He's the master of the universe, he'd do no such thing.

So you're saying Freeza's a real he-man.

Now I don't know if I'm just not that perverted, but I found nothing wrong with that line.

No, you don't have to be a "real he-man", to stray away from homoerotica. I never said Japanese Freeza was butch. I just said he's not that thing Funimation and Ocean cursed us with.

Seriously? So you consider that the kind of thing you'd say to another man? I mean, it comes off as just a little homoerotic. Especially when you hear Linda Young's delivery of the line. I mean, next time any dude asks you to do something, or whatever; answer with that line. "Ok, big guy. Whatever turns you on." See if you don't get a very weird look.

Was a joke. "He-Man and the Masters of the Universe".

Well look at him.

What's really a shame is that some of the stuff they came up with in the first three seasons would have been a perfect fit for some American superhero cartoons. Brian Drummond would have made, say, a perfect Carnage or Green Goblin, especially with lines like "Being a good fiend is like being a good photographer..." That's a perfect American supervillain line.

Instead, they get wasted on characters they don't fit.

Brian Drummond played Venom (and I believe Carnage) in Spider-man Unlimited.

There was a little post processing of his voice, but he did a great job.

Sweet. Too bad he got wasted in such a suck-ass cartoon, if only they'd gotten him for the cool 'regular' Spidey series beforehand.

Tell me about it, I'm glad that show died, it was an atrocity.

I heard it was supposed to be a Spidey 2099 cartoon, but had to be changed late into production. It'd make sense, cuz there's a lot of similarities.
