Well, Nadolny and Armstrong were FUNimation's third hired actors for the roles. This is just another turn in the cycle. Armstrong's retired now and Nadolny was either not available or were no longer a part of FUNimation's vision for their dubs. Is what it is.

Well, the original narrator retired, Nadolny doesn't seem to be working with them on a constant basis anymore... So, yeah. *Shrugs.* Whatcha gonna do?

I'm very eager to hear Colleen's Goku! Very curious how it'll sound. Hopefully not just like her Gohan, but considering Nadolny switched up her performance for Goku from Gohan, I expect it Colleen to as well.

Hey, remember when Stephanie Naldony was Goku in DB movies 2 and 3?

Me neither.

Disappointed that Doc Morgan won't be returning as the narrator. He was a good replacement for Brice Armstrong I thought, so why would they go with yet another voice? Why does FUNimation insist of giving each series it's own distinctly different narrator, when that only goes entirely against the original's sense of all the series' being one connected story?

I like Nadolny's voice for both little Goku and Gohan. Sure she wasn't great when she first started in the 68th episode of DBZ, but no one was really. Like her and the others, they got better. She was the only thing I missed in Dragon Ball Z Kai.

Naldony sounded like a chain-smoking teen and her laugh was this frightening, soulless, insincere laugh.

Clinkenbeard is twice the talent Naldony was and I'm glad she's taking over.

Fuck this shit. I hate Clinkenbeard's Gohan, and no way in hell is it going to work for little ol' Goku. (inb4 buh buh Nadolny wasn't fit either!)

That was the only thing I wanted out of this dub, Nadolny back for Goku. Not that I had high hopes for it happening, but...shit.

Clinkenbeard sounds like a little girl that got raped by a 34 inch dick with spikes filled with sulfuric acid being poured down her throat.
All little boys sound like little girls, not chain smokers.

Clinkenbeard brings an endearing cuteness to Gohan. Naldony made him a soulless husk.

Still better than Naldony. Face it, she's a no talent.

That is... that is just inappropriate sir.

I mean, I could have settled for 33 inches, but 34? What's wrong with you?

Anyway, I think she sounds adorable. Not to mention her acting is flat out better than Nadolny's. Seriously, watch the latest Kai episode. THE CUTEST.

Also, to me, she sounds more like a boy than the 30 year old woman Nadolny sounded like.

She was fine for Goku, all the things you've said are really only true for her performance with Gohan.

Edit@below: Then we'll just have to see, anything like Gohan's role in Kai will be clearly insufficient.

Until you hear Clinkenbeard's Goku, you won't know.

But hey, I liked Ceyli Delgadillo's performance.

Oh jeeze, really? I mean, she was ok for some speaking lines, but she never really emoted enough for Goku.

I honestly really enjoyed Nadolny's Goku in comparison. On her own, she was a good fit, but I'm very interested to hear Colleen in the role. Hopefully they'll take it seriously and she'll really give her best performance.

Yeah, I wasn't a big fan of Delgadillo's work. I'll blame it primarily on FUNimation's über-inexperience in direction at the time, though. She always seemed to be whispering her lines. I'd probably still place her above Nadolny, though.

Well that's understandable, but actors move on from roles all the time. This is just something you gotta accept. Like how Mark Hamill is stepping down as the Joker for good!
