I remember seeing this a few years ago. It's still every bit as hilarious. I love the part 32 seconds in. :lol:

Now, how did I guess you would be posting a clip from the Portuguese dub as soon as I saw this thread's title? :lol:

No, seriously, this dub has achieved cult status in Portugal, with the voice acting being part of the reason.

Goku didn't die in GT. The show sucked him off so much, it was impossible to keep him in the world of the living, so he ascended beyond mortality.

I always side eye the people who say "Now my kids/today's kids can experience what I did as a child!" Nigga, who gives a fuck about your childhood? You're an adult now and it was at least 15 years ago. Let the kids have their own experience instead of picking at a corpse.

I don't know if I'd call this bad acting, a bad line, or both, but here's one of my favorites.

Well, at least the portuguese dub has the best (adult) Goku voice of them all. 8)

^ That's absolutely horrific acting.

It's so fucking awful. I cannot abide anyone who considers that legitimately good.

I-is that a fandub, or is it actually from the real English dub?

I realize some people actually kind of like this scene from the Ocean Dub...but McNiel's acting...Oh gosh :crazy: ....

Just who in the world was the voice director for this anyways? Because if you think this is bad, just check out #18's acting during this time in the Cell Saga... :eh:

I HATE YOU :evil: . Don't remind me of Grandma Fr(i)eza. It hurts me so much to see such an awesome villain suck so bad. :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

I try so hard to repress this horrible abomination :cry: :cry: :cry:

Thank God they redubbed most of the random henchmen and stuff in the season sets.
Yamcha: Do you remember the spell to release him - do you know all the words?
Bulma: Of course! I'm not gonna pull a Frieza and screw it up!
Master Roshi: Bulma, I think Frieza failed because he wore too many clothes!

I do have a weak spot of McNeil. It's certainly not horrible but it does get far too high pitched for its own good. He's a demon powering up, not a new singer for Bon Jovi!
I can let this slide considering his mostly fantastic performance overall.

This is an 80s/90s animated all-ages show that was popular amongst kids. It's not some potent super weapon that might fall into the wrong hands that we have to protect from evil.
