There was this little thing she did in one of the episodes of Super, where she pulls a complete 180 of her own character and it kinda comes across that it is an act she puts on to motivate Goku. I thought it was the most humanizing thing I've seen about Chichi.

Blockhouse posted:now I want to rewatch resurrection f in english I've seen both of the Funimation "Super" movies (really they're the last Dragon Ball Z movies, I assume any new ones will be branded as Super) and it's well worth a watch, some of the dialogue is done really well, mostly comedy stuff with the Pilaf gang, Trunks and Goten, but also Frieza's stuff, with all his fancy words (which even confuse Sorbet a couple of times) Someone should do a revised Resurrection in F that splices in Ginyu and perhaps reworks things so you have Vegeta training with Whis first.

My favorite Japanese King Kai thing: His character is flailing and screaming and getting all pointy-teeth, and his voice just sounds like regular bored talking. King Kai is a treasure.

thread posted:VA talk. It might be worth noting for the "we hate Funimation" people if they're unfamiliar, the American voice actors really hate the bad parts of the dub too. The TeamFourStar dubs are their favorite things in the world because TFS can make fun of and redo stuff they're not allowed to. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8j2mBle5_JM ...but when the choice was between "pay bills" or "record dumb filler episodes", they chose to grab the mic and scream like they meant it rather than phoning it in. And that's pretty cool.

I got my wife into Kai while she was pregnant, and now that she's had the baby, she wanted to see what was next. We got sick of waiting for Buu-Kai, so we opted for plain old DBZ Buu Saga. Holy loving poo poo. It was So. Goddamn. SLOW. Entire episodes of people punching the pink goo monster, continuing to do nothing over and over and over, failing to see that maybe, just maybe, punching him isn't the path to victory. You really start to see some of the inconsistencies between animation studios when you binge-watch it. And the post-Buu stuff was excruciating and I'm pretty sure I'd never seen it before.

If you prefer the constipated, 'cartoon tough guy' voices and the droning, incessant synth music of the US dub to the japanese audio there's something seriously wrong with you.

There is a thing called 'subtitles' where you can understand what the cartoon men are saying, while also listening to the audio of the original work, and not some toy company's first try at dubbing anime with inept actors, awful jokes and terrible music.

The US dub music unironically sounds better than the uninspired orchestral tracks with poo poo audio quality of the Japanese one.

Yeah I've never really liked the Kikuchi music myself. His stuff doesn't really do anything for me. Say what you will about his ethics but Yamamoto's music was probably my favorite.

I didn't grow up with the US dub but loved Dragonball nonetheless. I was exposed to it as an adult and thought it was a joke at first. The voices and music were seriously grating. Nothing can convince me that this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgHAALKCb40 is better than this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZVJq_6_aP4 there's not a single thing about this scene that the FUNi version didn't ruin.

"Unmei No Hi ~ Tamashii Tai Tamashii" is a good song but it feels a little out of place in that scene to be honest. I remember someone or the other (probably Daizenshuu EX) bitching about how that dub "ruined" that Gohan's SSJ2 transformation and how much better and beautiful the original Japanese audio was, looking it up online, and being extremely underwhelmed. Maybe it's just the weird synth guitar strumming intro.

Not a matter of quality, taste or tone or anything. quote:Yeah I'm not trying to argue in favor of the English dub ITT. I love the Japanese audio. I also love the stupid, gruff Piccolo voice in the English dub, though. Piccolo's US voice sounds forced and silly to me. It's great when TFS mocks it but for an actual dub it's embarassing...

Raxivace posted:I'm glad there's so many different versions of Dragon Ball for us all to enjoy. Was there really a need for a different version, though? I mean, it's not like it's an anime full of japanese cultural references that would fly over western folks' heads or anything. It was already primed and ready for a western audience without any 'three eyed cowboys', 'brilliant scientists' and everyone sounding like a Wrestlemania character. Also, it may have seemed like a good idea marketing-wise at the time. But in the long run they've shot themselves in the foot. Now there's an entire generation of DBZ fans (the Absalon crowd) that are under the impression that the franshice is something different than what it actually is, and as a result hate Super.
