Pretty much always in Z & never in GT. Don't really have a choice in DB or Kai.

I love theme that play, after Piccolo fuse with Kami, it match every movement perfectly- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QcWpBZQ7qyc

I recall the episode where Gohan kills Cell as one with unusually good music placement for the dub (that particular episode was actually uncharacteristically very well-done on the acting and writing fronts as well). I still prefer Kikuchi overall for that episode, though...and I vastly prefer the Kikuchi score for DB and DBZ.

And even though I have not seen actually seen the Japanese version of these scenes, I really do the Japanese version would be hard pressed to top the dub music in them...

To be brutally honest, I actually enjoy the dub music in the Buu Saga far more than Kikuchi.

Everything else before Buu I tend to listen to one or the other depending on what I'm watching.

GT is crap for both.

Whenever Vegeta is doing his thing in where 'Hell's Bells' plays, when N**** Buu became Super Buu, and when Super Buu killed the fat gunman. Otherwise I prefer the fully orchestrated bliss of Shunsuke Kikuchi.

Can't think of any. Purged it from my memory a long time ago.

When Goku destroys Buu. There's just something I personally feel that the dub music fits better in that scene. That and I wasn't too keen on the choral arrangement. Something similar is while I like the Ewok song at the end of Return of the Jedi, I feel the muic that plays during the 1997 re-release is a more fitting end to the saga.

The Super Saiyan 3 Goku theme was pretty sweet.

-Episodes 1-67
-Cell's death
-When Cell was going after the sister and brother at the airport

There is a lot more scenes I prefer the dub music but my list was my top 3.

I'll have to lump myself in with this statement.

I clicked on some of the links above to give some of it another shot since it's been so long since I've heard any of it - but I couldn't make it through since all of it was so bad (the voice acting, the music,...). I found myself laughing at the Piccolo and Kami fusion...

I guess if I HAD to pick one scene, it would be this one:

Although it is important to note that the original has no music in this scene. Just voices and sound effects.

So you're saying that there is not one instance where you liked the dub music over the original? Come on, I know you hate the dub but there has got to be at least one scene that you really like the dub music in.

I'm sorry, preferring the dub music in movies 1 and 9 is just... I know opinions can't be wrong, but yours comes the closest. Kikuchi is at his strongest in those two movies. The suites for those two movies are breathtaking masterpieces.

Of the few scenes I liked the dub music in (mostly the Ginyu body swap music), I have still never preferred that to the Japanese music.

Love your avatar, btw, Greed was my favorite FMA character.

Ah, "Ginyu Transformation", a great Faulconer track.

/offtopic Yeah Greed is my favorite too, it's a shame they didn't have Chris Patton voice Greed 2 but I completely understand why they changed the voice actor.
