It'd be interesting to know if their scripts are subject to approval from Lisa Yamatoya like FUNimation's are, or if a different exec is supervising Bang-Zoom's scripts.
A "rather haggard" translation of a line from Future Gohan in DBZ, provided to FUNimation by Toei:
"To think of fighting that is this fun...so, it was pleasant fight, as many as, therefore is a feeling which is good the fight where."

What's with all the rasp on the narrator all of a sudden?

Mai sounds like Nadolny, Shuu sounds good, Pilaf sounds like Funi.

Lee's Bulma and McConnohie's Kaio still rock.

Goten and Trunks still sound good.

Krillin is okay.

Android 18 and Chi-Chi are good.

Vegeta still needs improvement.

Lang as Goku still continues to disappoint me. And that Kamehameha was terrible. What was the director thinking when she cast him? There were actors who could have done better.
You mean like Erik Scott Kimerer :shock:

I just thought of something are we sure that LexVo really is him i mean anyone could make up a name and say hey I am ...... I just find it hard to believe that a voice actor would act this way especially seeing how Harlacher and Keiji were so respectful. It was just a thought that crossed my mind plus looking at Lex's twitter he seems very professional and respectful.

Yes, he, Todd Haberkorn, Mike Sinterniklaas and even Johnny Yong Bosch could have done better. I think Lang was an out-of-the-box choice that didn't work.

I'm sorry, I love Bosch as much as the next guy, but all I would be able to hear is Joseph Joestar beating the shit out of a Cat. Actually, now that I type it out...

You mean Jonathan, right? I get what you mean though. I personally don't mind JYB, but I can see why people call him overexposed. Not sure if he'd be right for Goku anyway.

Johnny Yong Bosch is Nobita Nobi. I'm not sure he'd fit Goku at all.

He's supposed to have at least some femenine traits, which Bosch does demonstrate with his "Noby" voice. I dont like MasakoX's voice for Goku (I do love the guy though) but he does have the right idea in mind.

Kaiji tang's birthday wish to tfs frieza in vegeta's voice is best thing ever! I see lot of improvements compared to his current take (well atleast episode 2)... Good going Mr.Tang, I will continue to watch bang zoom version over funimation one no matter what, It's really interesting to witness actors evolving their performance along with characters.

Wow, interesting to hear Goku fighting with Kenshiro yells. I much preferred it to his yelling during the first half which was a bit too restrained.

You could hear Michael McConnohie was struggling to keep up with some of the nonsense dialogue he was given, it just goes on and on. I get that they're trying to fit the lip flaps but it just needs to be worded in a more natural manner.

On the subject of yelling, I've noticed that McConnohie's King Kai also sounds too restrained during scenes where King Kai is visibly angry. I can only blame poor direction at this point.
