Linda Young - It seemed due to her pace was too slow for Dragon Ball Z Kai. Plus, she's an insult to Lord Freeza, she made him sound like a granny.
FUNimation probably realized (too late) that Stephanie Nadolny was a terrible VA for Gohan and replaced with Colleen Clinkenbeard (awesome!), if she didn't had a hoarse (+ smoker) voice then things may've been different.

dbboxkaifan, look, a lot of us are on the same page here... but you really don't need to explain how you hate Young and Nadolny's performances EVERY single time you post about ANYTHING AT ALL. I don't even know you, and it's already getting a little tired. It's like you're taking every opportunity you can to reiterate those standpoints. We get it. You don't like the dub, think FUNimation is hilarious, blah blah blah.
I don't know how else to say it, and I know it borders on being rude toward you, but it's starting to get to be a bit much.

It's likely they only replaced Naldony because she was unavailable. It's just a happy accident that Clinkenbeard is better (IMO).
I'd like to behind-the-scenes for the Japanese version, like that video with Masako Nozawa and Ryo Horikawa hanging out with that singing group.

Kentai wrote:Son Gokuu is a fascinating character anyway, because he is - at face value, anyway - an idiot savant. The victim of violent head trauma as an infant [...] he's a simple bumpkin with a fair share of brain damage who's natural talents to work out what's wrong compensate for his broad lack of common sense. But he's also a fighter, through and through [...] he fight until he has, in no uncertain terms, beaten his enemy on terms they can both acknowledge. He doesn't want to kill anyone, or even prove that he can win... he just wants to know he can. He's an ineffably charming bastard who's manly leanings were really incendental, and yes, the fact that he was voiced by a squeaky woman made the combination perhaps all the more charming.

If they haven't got rid of them, the recordings of Linda Young as Freeza. Even though it wouldn't be the best I would like to hear more lines of Linda Young as Freeza with Kai acting.
I thought it was because they were all sick of doing DBZ. I remember hearing somewhere that Gokus VA was going to quit until he saw the new scriptspenguintruth wrote:It's likely they only replaced Naldony because she was unavailable.
