You don't have to. I know that it isn't, this is why I was thinking about the extra side footage the entire time I was watching it.JAPPO wrote:Just wanted to clarify it's not the same
I obviously wrote:Now I know that they zoomed in abit, and I know I was minus the extra footage on the sides, but after watching it like that, 60% of the episode was fine

Well, Yu Yu Hakusho was able to pull it off, but then again, I don't think any of the YYH songs have nonesense stuff like "Ultra Z" or (if we're bringing the later OP into this) "Ramen Roppai." The writers are gonna have quite the time trying to re-write that smoothlyThe Tori-bot wrote:That was just passable until it got to the demand for an English dub of HEAD-CHA-LA.

Well, I was considering signing it (boxset supporter or not, I still would prefer to see a fullscreen version of this release come out sometime in the future), but once I had a look at the petition content itself, I didn't see the point. The whole thing looks like it was typed by a ten-year old or something... there's bad grammar and spelling throughout. Even if a lot of people decided to sign this and it did get all the way to FUNi, they wouldn't even bother to take it seriously--in "witch" case, I'd rather wait to sign a different petition made by a more intelligent person.nathantheguitarist wrote:I don't think it will work, but here's (yet another) try for a petition.

I'll reconsider signing it after it's re-written. And you said hopefully it will... >__>;nathantheguitarist wrote:I already said it's going to be re-written...
And there's no point in there being 50 petitions on the same thing.
So please be nice, and sign it anyways.
Don't they realize how weird that would sound? Don't get me wrong; it's a great song and all, but it's distinctly Japanese. I remember watching an episode with the Japanese audio track with my friend, who also loved the series (one of my several attempts at "converting" regular fans), and he just laughed at it. His ignorance aside, I just don't see the theme "meshing" well with an English audience.The Tori-bot wrote:That was just passable until it got to the demand for an English dub of HEAD-CHA-LA.nathantheguitarist wrote:I don't think it will work, but here's (yet another) try for a petition.

Well, if all else fails, they could try to use Kageyama Hironobu's "Engrish" version of the song as the opening...Acid_Reign wrote:Don't they realize how weird that would sound?

Though, it is DVD, so I suppose it wouldn't matter.

Kageyama is his surname.KinoFourpaws wrote:(BTW, which one of those two names is the guy's last name? I think it's Hironobu, but it still confuses me... @__@)

lol, I remember those. I actually like them. My brothers and I have a few running jokes with the "We Were Angels" song ("Anjeru" sounds oddly like "Adeh" when sung the way it is, and of course we are confident that some day we'll find what we've been saaaaching foe.KinoFourpaws wrote:Well, if all else fails, they could try to use Kageyama Hironobu's "Engrish" version of the song as the opening...Acid_Reign wrote:Don't they realize how weird that would sound?

I know that they did variations of Makafushigi Adobencha and Romantikku Ageruyo, but they just sounded wierd to me. I think an English version of Head-Cha-La would suck ass. Just my two cents.
While I agree that it's unreasonable to expect an English version of Cha-La Head-Cha-La, I'd love it if they did make one. I happen to really like their English versions of Makafushigi Adventure and Romantic Ageru Yo (and in fact, I like the latter even better than the original song).SatoSky wrote:I honestly think that you guys are expecting too much from FUNimation with an English variation of Head-Cha-La.

I liked Romantikku Ageruyo's English version as well. But it was just off to me. To each his own. I still think Head-Cha-La would be wierd though. It would be really neat if FUNi could get the variation that was done by the Brazilian band. Their name eludes me right now, but it was really awesome. It was even hosted on the main site, I think.Mystery Person X wrote:While I agree that it's unreasonable to expect an English version of Cha-La Head-Cha-La, I'd love it if they did make one.

I don't know how to correctly spell them so I just go by what I've seen around the interweb.Smooth Criminal wrote:...Romantikku?
