I don't really care. It's works fine with Naruto and Luffy (the latter an emotionally mature individual as opposed to the former), it'll work fine for Gokû.jjgp1112 wrote:Adult Goku with Gohan's voice = DO NOT WANT as well.Metalwario64 wrote:Needs moar Stephany Nadolny!jjgp1112 wrote:Adult Goku with a voice that's 95% similar to Goten's?

Giving a character the same voice as they did as a kid may be good in the Japanese version, but seeing adult Goku in a US dub with a freaking kid's voice would be laughable.
Hehe, I should've been a bit more clear. Although with Kai coming up, I wonder if Midorikawa will return for #16, sense he is currently doing Ten.Kirbopher wrote:Oh I thought you meant the dub. Either case, those characters were also never next to each other at any point in the series, so it was never an issue.DB_Fan1991 wrote:While that's true for the dub, in the Japanese version 16 & Paikuhan were voiced by Hikaru Midorikawa
She/Her Don't forget to take your estrogen! Wait, Inman had a Dragon Ball role? Huh, he's been with FUNi longer than I thought...Kirbopher wrote:Kyle was Paikuhan and Jeremy Inman was 16; they don't sound a THING alike in my mind...
Also that choice wasn't my own, someone else said I'd make a good Yamcha :B

He's been there at least since late 2007, as he did Bleach(Jin Kariya) and Code Geass(Schneizel el Britannia).JulieYBM wrote:When did Baker move to LA, 'cause as of recent he was in Darker Than Black.

It's not too different from the current voice cast but I made a few revisions I thought were fitting.
Whilst I do think Sabat has a great vocal range, if you listen to the commentary for the first uncut "One Piece" DVD, Mike McFarland reveals something very interesting about his role in the DBZ dub. The reason they gave Sabat so many roles was because FUNimation had, at the time, a very limited number of people to work with, so they had him do a lot of the roles.Mewzard wrote:I think some direction changes, and a few voice changes could make a great dub, if they had an accurate script. That's what I meant. Some voices, I would like to keep (Cell, Goku, 17, Ginyu, etc), some I would like to change (Freeza, Recoome, etc). Maybe pull Chris Sabat back a tad, to allow more roles to sound differentiated, and tap more of their voice cast.
It sucks that FUNimation did so many things in the name of "budget" when just mere months later it was basically printing money.DOOODGE wrote:Whilst I do think Sabat has a great vocal range, if you listen to the commentary for the first uncut "One Piece" DVD, Mike McFarland reveals something very interesting about his role in the DBZ dub.

So, it's not like FUNimation thought it would be an excellent idea to give Sabat so many roles. They clearly love him and believe in his talents as a voice actor, but the way McFarland said and delivered it, he made it sound like they would have hired more voice actors if FUNimation had the budget to do so at the time. They most certainly do now, though, lol.
Very true, but I'm sympathetic. DBZ was cancelled at one point due to low ratings, so they had good reason to worry that the same thing would happen again.it sucks that FUNimation did so many things in the name of "budget" when just mere months later it was basically printing money.
Well, that just goes to show you that putting DBZ on at 4:30PM Monday-Friday is a lot better than putting it on at 6:30AM on a Sunday.DOOODGE wrote:Very true, but I'm sympathetic.

Agreed. You have the TV networks to thank for that. If only they had known that in a few years anime in the U.S. would be bigger than sliced bread.Well, that just goes to show you that putting DBZ on at 4:30PM Monday-Friday is a lot better than putting it on at 6:30AM on a Sunday.
Between my special order of Saint Seiya: Next Dimension vol. 1 from Japan, The Complete Sherlock Holmes, and "Seasons" 4 and 5 of Detective Conan, I had no birthday cash left for One Piece.DOOODGE wrote:Whilst I do think Sabat has a great vocal range, if you listen to the commentary for the first uncut "One Piece" DVD, Mike McFarland reveals something very interesting about his role in the DBZ dub.
