Sorry, I wanted to keep it balanced between the two. Did anyone like the video? I didn't make it but I thought it was really cool.
...Wait what are you doing? Are you still reading this? I finished what I had to say, why don't you move on to the next post?

Wow, that would be cool to see Funi dub that show.

And I remembered that Steven Jay Blum voiced Goku in Final Bout, therefore Blum has conquered countless main anime characters.

I don't believe the Toei show can be licensed. Heck, I don't think it's even had an official home release recently, if at all.


Eric Stuart? Bah, give me Travis Willingham Kaiba!!

You're the first person I've heard who said they can picture someone else as Kaiba. On note of Mr. Willingham, if he wasn't finishing high school around the time season 3 was being recorded/cast, can you picture him as anyone from DBZ?

Oh well, at least the Ocean Dub of DBZ wasn't even as bad as 4kids!'s One Piece dub...

I wouldn't be a Dragon Ball fan today if it had been... 8)

I highly dislike Eric Stuart's Kaiba. Highly.

Willingham would be a great Piccolo, if he could do his own thing...

That's because Abridged stopped being funny a long time ago. :lol:
