What's the worst that could happen if Naruto was dubbed?
What do you think could be the worst that could happen if Naruto gets dubbed?
I can imagine going crazy if Hinata's name is changed to "Jennifer" or Kakashi's voice actor is the same guy as James from Team Rocket (Pokemon) (forgot who said that first, but it made me laugh, heh.) Lets see what you guys can think of. |

Hmm, I haven't followed too many dubbed animes.. how well do english voice actors do snakey and slithery voices? Orochimaru's is the only voice I can think of that may must get slaughtered.
And yes, techniques.. doppleganger.. I'd just cut the tv off right there. Better yet, they do say the japanese techniques, but in american accents. Ever listened to see how Shishio and Kenshin said Ama kakeryu no hirameki, or however you spell it? |

You guys know that they have some pretty good voice actors for dubs these days right? The best thing that could happen for a dubbed Naruto is to get the Ocean Group. Brian Drummond (Vegeta, Zechs from Gundam Wing) would make a great Itachi, he always handles the badass characters. Bandai would probably be the best dub group, but Funimation would be the worst. Naruto would do well on Adult Swim just like Inuyasha I think, and honestly it probably wouldn't get cut too much considering they cut alot in the manga to anime translation already. Nope, I think Naruto would do pretty well dubbed on Adult Swim. The show would go through hell on anything else such as Fox Kids. The worst we'd have to worry about as fans are the fansubbers bing pressured to stop.

Well, Brian Drummond is my all-time hands-down fav. voice actor. When he does the Vegeta powerup, the yell is so kick ass. And when he gets pissed off, lol I love it.
The guy that voices Spike, Shishio.. ahh and it's like 2 or 3 others, I forgot - but him. Those two are the two that come to mind.. |

You guys have no idea what i've seen... I come from Malaysia and....we have this satellite TV that charges is for around RM100 with around 80-90 channels including satellite radios... We had this channel where they show animes and you have no IDEA what they make Naruto said!
Anyone of you know what is Malay? They dubbed the whole show with "the malay" language... Holy crap! what could get worse than that! It just makes the whole anime so freaking cheap! OMG! It makes them sounds like they are retarded! LOL A very bad move ... therefore thy shall leave the anime with the voice it was meant to be..... Note : Malaysia is located between the Island of Singapore and Thailand. Above the Island of Singapore and below Thailand. A country that is inhabited with the so-called "aboroginies" that is MALAY! They are very uncivilised and useless. The Malay language the the language they used to communicate and we who are studying is a must that we study "their" language too. A very useless language I would say! |

Anyhow this reminds me of some crap my cousin let me borrow. It was a malaysian English dub of DBZ movie 11. That was the worst thing I have ever seen. On top of the fact that Movie 11 sucked the voices sounded like they had a weird french accent and they got most of the names wrong. Videl was called Kami. Goten was called Goku. Trunks was called Goku and I even think Gohan was called Goku a few times. Some of the attacks were the original Japanese voices too it was horrible! Gohan is rescued in a scene by Krillen who he refers to as "Brother Goku" and then he gets hit by Brolli the next second. Gohan shouts in his japanese voice "Krillen-san!". I busted out laughing that was some horrible shit! Dubs scare me now. |

ShurikenJay, I truly agreed with you about the "intolerable" thing... but you have no idea what the government has did to us...(i do not want to speak any further because this is politics and case is sentitive) so.. anyway... i'm not prejudice about the aboroginies but sometimes when i think of all the special treatments that the government gave to them... the somehow just won't advance and plus.... in here... Our cabinets are full of them... i think there is only 1 or 2 of the other race in the cabinet... (I shall not speak anymore further) but i truly agreed with you ShurikenJay, speaking of the words that i said was infact a lil` racism... hehehe *I'm so at the risk of getting ban again*

Here in America in certain states it is a requirement that we pass two years of Spanish to graduate from High School. I used to live in New York where there was no such rule but when I moved to Maryland I had to take Spanish 2 when I took Spanish 1 in 9th grade! My Spanish was rusty by 4 years and yet the expected me to pass a more advanced course of something I wasn't familiar with anymore. But I took it and passed it. I didn't hold a grudge against the hispanic population that is apperently taking over our country. I don't know what its like in Malaysia but I would say sometimes the native people deserve special treatment to protect their interest after what has been done to them. That is especially true of Native Americans, I wouldn't ever trade what has been done to them to recieve the little bit of special treatment they recieve. But anyway I'd just encourage you to not take it out on a group of people and if it really bothers you, take it up with your government. As far as this topic is concerned, the worst thing that could happen to Naruto being dubbed would be to land on a network other than Fox Kids. You will get Doppleganger clones. Bathing suit technique and a less perverted Orochimaru. And that can't be good.

oh.. noway... there is JUST NO WAY i'm going to be a MALAY.. i wasn't born as a MALAY... that's the problem.... Malaysia consist of 3 majority races which is Malay, Chinese and Indian... if you're living in Malaysia doesn't mean you have to be a MALAY.... therefore I'm not a MALAY.. nothing like it!.... i'm just a Chinese who cannot wait to migrate to England once my migration thingy has been confirmed... oh by the way... ShurikenJay, in the states i know that there is a democratic rule which is the freedom of speech... therefore you could throw everything at the government... In here.. eventhough it is called a "democratic country" fuh~ there was never much democratic rule implemented over here.... Let's say! just for example.. if Malay accidentaly overheard or a Christian discussion or a church... they could just report to the government with the fault that we are spreading Christianity to them and that is illegal over here.... and.. if we say anything bad about the government and if the police heard them... wow! you'll be charged with TREASON and I don't know why!!! so basically, the malays get all the special treatment without needed to sacrifice anything and we don't get anything in return but just to stay in this country as a permanent resident..
anywayz... i think it is wise that we stop this conversation because i do not want any of the government secret body to tap in here and track down my IP address and have me lock-up! hehehe oh yea... about the DBZ... that's not the worst.. wait till you see Ultraman, Yu-Gi-Oh! and PoKeMon... you'll be dead by the first minute... |

Naruto: 4-Kids/FUNimation/Nelvala/Sabian version!!
1) Naruto's status as the orphaned town pariah removed. Iruka is his father. 2) The Third Hokage isn't dead, he's only resting after his fight with Orochimaru (not shown because of occult concerns.) 3) Sasuke doesn't really hate Itachi for kidnapping (not murdering), but only wants to find him so he can get his money back. 4) Sexy no Jutsu removed. 5) Hell, entire scene of Naruto stealing the scroll removed. Naruto just magically shows up with the Kabe-bunshin (musn't let kids think stealing is bad.) 6) Neji beating up Hinata is too intense for the kiddies. Hinata cut. 7) Garaa vs. Rock Lee is too intense for the kiddies. Fight cut to Rock Lee knocked out after being thrown against the wall once. Rock Lee re-cast as a complete buffoon, simply there fore comic releif. I can continue, but this is getting way too depressing. The reality will probably be even worse than anything I can imagine. |
