Dragonball Kai (FUNimation English) Dub: General Discussion

[DB_Fan1991]

Are we even going to get to the Goku vs Freeza fight, or is Nicktoons going to start reruns soon?

I wouldn't be surprised if Nicktoons went into reruns after Episode 26 since it seems as if FUNi gives networks 26 episode seasons these days.

[Puto]

Appule is now voiced by Kyle Herbert. Just sayin'.

EDIT: Oh, and they're using "Grand Elder" in the dub so far. No "Guru" at all.

You do know that 26 has always been around the standard for U.S. television seasons, right?

If they do stop at 26, that means reruns start next week... man I feel bad for the kids getting excited for a new episode only to see the show start from the beginning again. 26 is the episode where Vegeta kills Zarbon, which is even worse cause at that point we just want to see more lol

Reminds me of back in the day when they aired the episode where Super Buu reverted to Kid Buu, and in the next episode preview it showed Kid Buu destroying the Earth... I was so excited

When I get home, I see Frieza's ugly face on the screen

Honestly, it would be awesome if they could air up to 54 before re-runs, because that would wrap up the current storyline nice, not to mention that's a good amount of episodes to re-air a few times. Ending with Zarbon getting killed would be a terrible way to end the Season. However, perhaps FUNimation hasn't dubbed enough episodes fast enough to warrant them airing that far into the series.

We should know for sure if they're airing past 26 in a few days, when Zap2It finally updates their schedule. They list next Thurs' and beyond's episodes as untitled.

Whoo, new Zarbon.

Yes I do know that. That's why I wouldn't be surprised if 26 is the last episode they before going into reruns. Vegeta beating Zarbon is a great way to end the season as it will want kids to want to watch more, and then once going into reruns kids won't want to wait for the new episodes.

[MR.Mark]

Whoo, new Zarbon.

Indeed, I watched episode 23, and damn, when he used an authoritative voice, I came in my ears.

[Big Momma]

You should probably get that checked out. I wouldn't wait for it to happen again.


Anywhoo, I'm really digging Vegeta now. I never really had a problem with him before...or, more specifically, I didn't really care. But Sabat has really stepped up his game.

EDIT: Also...does anyone think that Dende sounds like the Gohan from the "Let my child alone" dub? I keep expecting him to say "I am a saiya people!"

Hooray! Totally called it.

Actually, it's the "Big Green" dub, and that second line is from ANOTHER English dub, the Malaysian dub. XD

I swear I get those dubs mixed up all the freaking time


Let me change that then.

I checked my guide, and Wednesday (which is 26, isn't it?) is the last new episode I see on my guide. Thursday doesn't show it being a new episode. Though, it might just need to be corrected.

[mysticboy]

I think Freeza's new voice is pretty decent. Ain't no Linda Young though.

[ohaimynameiserik]

Ain't no Linda Young though.

And boy, do I praise Zombie Jesus for that!

Most of the guides aren't or haven't been updated. However, now both the Nicktoons site and TVGuide show episode 27 "A Touch-and-Go Situation! Gohan, Protect the Four-Star Ball!" airing on Thursday! This pretty much confirms that they are airing past episode 26.

[Suupaa Gohan 2]

...D...did I just...

...I did. I just heard Surfer Dude Yamcha. ...He's back.

Excuse me while I go cry.

[Mewzard]

It's like what was said in another topic. It's not really a different voice, the "Yo" and "Dude" just gave that feeling of a surfer dude.

Fantasmo!

It would be so funny and ironic for all of us who used to watch DBZ before Season 3 was made if Kai on Nicktoons went into repeats after Episode 31.
