Majin vegeta at the world tourney. That's funimation and that IMO destroyed the original audio.DragonBalllKaiHD wrote:No, no, no. The Z dub will never be better than the original. It's pretty much a fact since the beginning. If you are talking about Kai, then that's a different story.
I can point out a few instances that Kai is on par with the original Japanese. Like Vegeta's first transformation into Super Saiyan in the front of the Artificial Humans. Sabat's delivery is top notch and his yell, "Yuuuurrraaahhh!!!", is pretty awesome to hear.
Let's not forget Goku's transformation as well as his speech to Freeza too.

Re: Moments when you think a dub did better then the origina
Seconded. It was amazing to hear it with Schemmel and Drummond mixed together. Trust me, that was the ultimate English dub trump over the original.TonyTheTiger wrote:Goku's "our old race is dead" speech to Vegeta right before they fused was an improvement. Not only is it just better written than the original (which is essentially an unremarkable "we aren't strong enough" admonishment), it actually makes more sense as something that would legitimately convince Vegeta since the power increase would have been apparent to him even without Goku having to say it.

Nope. I saw an edited version of it with both dubs. I'll tell you, it was the best thing I had ever seen since sliced bread.TheGmGoken wrote:Don't you mean Sabat not Drummond lol

Re: Moments when you think a dub did better then the origina
I'm pretty sure a lot of the people posting in this thread will be from places that received the two major English dubs so..... Supposedly half of the forum are from non English speaking countries but I wonder how many of them are active. If you go into the member location thread you will see that a majority of the posts are by members from English speaking countries.TheGmGoken wrote:I know...Funiringworm128 wrote:We all already know which dub he means..

Re: Moments when you think a dub did better then the origina
There are a few things here and there the dub did better, but I'm of the opinion that the original is overwhelmingly better in all areas - music, performances, dialog. I'm not a dub hater, but I don't know how anyone could say season 3 and much of season 4 were better in the dub than the original.
The biggest truths aren't original. The truth is ketchup. It's Jim Belushi. Its job isn't to blow our minds. It's to be within reach.

Funi had some syncing issues during the show. It got a lot better in the games, and hopefully Kai (and was still technically an improvement on JP), but still.
