Which English dubbed episode are you most looking forward to

Post by DragonBoxZTheMovies » Fri Jun 25, 2010 1:57 am

I can't wait to see all of them but the one I'm particuly looking forward to is episode 41. Who doesn't want to see Chris Sabat try an English dub of 'Saiyan Blood'. Can't wait to hear 'Super Dragon Soul' too.

Took the words right out of my mouth. 'Saiyan Blood' is possibly my favorite single thing from Kai, and I can't wait to see what FUNi will do with it.

I also generally look forward to Goku vs Freeza. It'll be the redemption for what was some of the absolute WORST material from the old Z dub.

I am looking forward to the season 3 material. I can't wait to see it done right.

Ditto on the Saiyan Blood, I'm also looking forward to hear the Ginyu Corps AND I wanna see if they're gonna pronounce Dr. Gero properly this time.

I look forward to Vegeta's death where he'll actually not be rewritten completely to look like a victim. Plus Goku, who finally embraces his Saiyan roots when challenging Freeza.

Mr. Satan's appearance. It's fairly obvious the DVDs will use Mr. Satan, but I don't want the broadcast dub to get all Hercule on me.

I'm looking forward to the Ginyu Special Squad fights and Freeza fight, even though I know they're gonna be pretty edited.

Honestly, I'm looking foward to the episode right after Goku turns Super Saiyan. I wanna hear how Schemmel calls Freeza a 'scumbag,' because that's what I remember Goku saying in the original version. Unfortunately, Nicktoons ain't gonna let Schemmel say that line, so it's gonna be WAY down the road until I we all hear it via the uncut, home release.

Like everyone else, I want to see the Super Saiyan Goku/Freeza fight.

I want to hear Schemmel sound absolutely ENRAGED.

I'm looking forward to the whole Fusion saga, the battle between Vegito and Super Buu was dragged out too long, can't wait to see the fight at a faster pace. Same with the Gotenks/Buu fight. Not to mention when Goku and Vegeta are inside Buu's body, that scene with the worms was too awkward for me to watch. Hopefully they will cut that scene out.

What's wrong with the word "scumbag" for Nicktoons broadcast?

Anyway, it'll be interesting to see how Schemmel handles Goku's Super Saiyan transformation this time around. I'm not expecting much, though.

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.

Going by how awesome Sean's been the last few episodes, it's going to be night and day from his Z performance.

I want to hear the "I'm the legendary warrior, born from a burning rage" thing in English without the "Ally to good, nightmare to you" bullshit.

He does that in the Z Dub, too. Just sayin'

Gohan's fight with Cell. Somehow, I've never seen those episodes and I'm incredibly interested to watch them. And by then we'll see how his voice actress sounds as a teenager.

Those are actually the episodes I'm dreading. Unless they bring back Nadolny for slightly older Gohan, I have no interest in seeing what they do for those episodes.

I'm curious how the original Japanese Kai will handle that in the first place. So much of that fight was simply so terribly paced, not to mention the animation was ugly as hell. We can't even make any predictions for FUNimation's take if we don't yet even know what they'll have to work with...

Also, 11 years old hardly counts as being a "teenager"...

I'm curious how rocketman will feel since I know he enjoys Kai and loves Vegetto. I can easily see Vegetto's fight with Buu being condensed into a single episode.

I'm looking forward to the episodes where Freeza starts to lose his cool. If Ayres can pull that side of the character off then we'll finally have a good English Freeza.

But Gohan was not a teenager when he fought Cell.
