Tullece's name in swedish

Post by JP6GAMER » Sat Feb 09, 2013 4:13 pm

Has anybody an idea why he was named Raditz in the swedish dub? (was it an error?)

Because he was said to be Goku's brother in several dubs (French dub) and Goku's brother is named Raditz, so they named him Raditz.

Wow... That's, uh... Wow... o_o
So pretty much, Dragon Ball has been thoroughly fucked in practically every single language. Clearly this isn't a world worth living in. -_-

From Turles to Raditz.. Probably one of the worst errors, wow indeed.

I don't know, do you know the Harmony Gold dub? Goku is Zero!

Also the Malaysian dub has Vegeta as "Beta" and Goten as "Goku." So it probably could be worse. Tullece is some stupid movie character that shows up for 20 minutes and nobody cares about. To change the names of the stable members of the show is much worse.

I think most who're here are aware of it, but calling Turles as Raditz it's just... :?

Gokuh to Zero is no different than all the name changes FUNi did. But the stuff from the Malaysian-English dub and the Swedish dub seem to be errors rather than intentional.

Well, at least he didn't end it saying "BORK BORK BORK!" Though have to ask was Raditz's name kept in that dub?
