This was before it was ruined with Touhous. Like, early, early salty bet when good AI was god tier instead of who had the most random invincible bullshit.

Saltybet was ruined by the introduction of a tier system, sifting out broken characters, and just generally every nerdy fgc thing added to ruin the beautiful, perfect chaos that was OG Salty Bet.

Yeah,that's one of the good ones. For every 5 "jumping onto White Base" level dubs there's at least one decent/good dub.

That is one of the few times Kars emotes anything other than complete boring monotone and the English VA got it how he should've, hosed he even got the crazy yell right. A better comparison would've been ACDC's crying scene (which was pretty much perfect in the English dub too), because Kars voice in JP is not a bastion of quality voice acting. It's not until the last few episodes he actually gets to do anything more than be a boring tool and Chris Corey Smith did fine in english especially near the end of the fight where he goes loving crazy.

It is good, there is awkward delivery in a lot of places, but as far as Gundam goes they hit all of the characters well. If you want a bad MSG dub then you go to the movies where there's randomly British Bright, randomly Spanish Sayla, and Steve Blum Char. The latter of which is like the only well directed casting choice in the lot.

Not all at once of course, but here

Blum is who I would peg for Jotaro but Matthew Mercer is a less predictable and probably better choice, Hol Horse, Vanilla Ice, Kira, Fungami, Diavolo, Weather Report,
Freeman is who I always wanted to be Dio's voice and if they didn't get him then Seitz was my second which I was happy they got him for, but anyways. D'arby, Abbacchio, and Gyro.

Blum's voice is too gravely for any of the Pillar Men even when he's not doing generic tough guys, their voices have to be smooth and calm most of the time outside of their actual personalities where they show their true colors is usually in battle. Freeman's voice is too powerful and would be better suited for either a heroic character, someone who's flat out loving crazy, or an end-game villain, which I consider none of the Pillar Men either of those things. I felt that Jamieson Price would've been the obvious choice for Wham, but Paul St. Peter was a surprise and the right way to go. I had no idea who'd they get for ACDC because that character is the worst character in Part 2 and has one good moment and hearing Beau Billingslea not do his standard voice for him was a pleasant surprise and also an interesting way to handle the character. Kars I would've pegged for Chuck Huber, because his voice is smooth and light enough for that character, but Kars is also just insanely loving boring and I didn't care who they got, but Chris Corey Smith was also a pleasant surprise because he's almost never in anime these days.

For the record, I loving hate Stroheim's Japanese voice because Eyes of Heaven has a button where you press it and he goes on a minute-long monologue about german science where he screeches at the top of his loving lungs and it is the worst thing I have ever heard. I loved the voice in the anime when he had limited appearances, but oh my loving god it was too much in the game.

It's fine when you hear it in spurts like in the anime, in a video game where voice clips are repeated constantly it gets loving tiresome and you begin to realize there is actually too much of a good thing and then the voice becomes annoying.
