    Dubbing is a hit or miss.

    Feature films usually have great voice actors. TV series I opt for sub-titles.

    Yeah, as much as I love Bleach (the manga) I cannot find myself to watch the show, since the voice actors are rather laughable on the show. In fact, I tend to just read manga altogether, as I can absorb most of the story that way, than having my ass sit in front of a TV gazing at it.

    The voice actors for which language? I watch the subtitled version and they sound great imo. The show has it's amazing moments, but there is so much filler it's astounding. There's been almost 300 episodes and I feel like they could have done it all in 150. All the crappy filler arcs or filler episodes are painful to watch. The new episode last night was like that and I just had to skip it altogether lol.

    Well, seeing as I can only watch Bleach on Adult Swim, I would have to say English.

    The only episode I really even enjoyed was Diamond Dust Rebellion, which was actually just a movie.

    That would be tough. I watch them all online. The American version is like 2 years behind the original haha.

    Hey, don't hate on Bleach dubbing. While most of it IS laughable, you have this gem of a voice actor involved:

    Wow haha. I thought this guy looked and sounded familiar. He was actually in multiple Power Ranger things way back in the day. And was Vash in Trigun, which I totally forgot was one of my favorite shows. And was in a lot of other things.

    God. I need to watch the entire Trigun Series again. I mean, I've already done it multiple times but still.

    Also, haven't been reading much Manga/Comics these days. Started reading the Walking Dead again and a few others. I forgot that I had read it a long time ago and the TV series reminded me. Now I notice that the Graphic Novel is pretty great, the show is pretty good. Robert Kirkman, man. I've got to start reading Invincible again also.

    Also I think I'll re-read Eva and Read or Die.

    I thought that was implied in the videos, since he DOES yell out "It's morphin' time!" and do the whole "Love and Peace!" bit.

    Is it weird that I get horny, when I hear JYB grunt. It's like a lion roaring or something.

    Also for Nostalgias sake, I present you:

    Dubs are laughable in everything that isn't DBZ, in which case English is of the utmost importance.

    The only dubbing of Dragonball Z that should rightfully exist is done by Team Four Star.

    LOL. Now that was awesome. So many plotholes brought to light.

    Ricola had me laughing histerically. Better written than the actual show.

    The DBZ Abridged Series is so dope. Watch the whole thing. Yu-Gi-Oh Abridged, the original Abridged series, is hilarious too. Although if you start watching that, find the 'remastered' version of episode one. The original has some really static/muffled audio.

    Yugioh Abridged is pretty dumb, imo.

    Just finished Serial Experiments Lain, shit ruled. Watching Kaiba now, pretty interesting, art through me off at first though.

    Well, you're dumb. IMO. :lol:

    In all seriousness, those two abridged series are the only ones I enjoy.

    Anyone been reading Naruto recently? Things are finally coming to a head. I hope it's as epic as I imagined it in my mind.

    I love this thread. ^.^

    Minus - DBZ and YGO Abridged were both hilarious, I agree.

    And you Trigun lovers should read Trigun Maximum. It's amaaaaazing.
