    The Naruto Dub

    But, but they pronounce Iruka incorrectly in my opinion so it isn't worth shit, it's too major of a change for me to live with!

    Yes, in seriousness, the dub is coming along quite nicely, I like how things are going. I was afraid Sasuke's VA wasn't gonna be able to cut it there for a little while but they seem to be falling into their roles nicely. Does anyone know how well it's being received, what kind of ratings it's getting in the U.S.? Now that it's almost 20 episodes in it should be a good indicator of how well it's being received.

    Everything is going well. I like the voice acting and everything though I still have trouble accepting Naruto's VA.

    The Naruto Dub

    Episode 16: The Broken Seal

    The most notable thing in the dub for this episode were the effects they added to Naruto's "Kyuubi-voice". I think those were very well done, and added a sense of power and terror to his voice (If anyone's seen The Fellowship of the Ring, the effects sounded just like when Galadriel tried to take the ring from Frodo and did her little "I will be a queen of power!" and got all scary). Aside from that, I'm a little disappointed in the delivery of the lines. They didn't come off as well as I had expected. Naruto's "I'm gonna kill you!" actually sounded a little corny (the original sounded just fine imo, though), and didn't get that surging-with-power-and-fury feel. I also think Steven Blum and Kakashi over emoted again with their lines, and a lot of what they should have said sounded like they were yelling "OMG WHAT IS IT I'M SO ANGRY!" Didn't sound terrible, just a little too dramatic.

    Haku and Sasuke though, sounded just fine. Sasuke's death speech was very nice and I thought Haku's VA continued to perform well.

    <@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs

    sasuke's speech sounded so fake, and there were some strange grunts coming from zabuza this episode. dunno what those were about. kyuubi naruto sounded lame, they could've definitely done a better job on it.

    Since the names in the dub have their have first names first now, when it comes time for Naruto to do his combo "U-zu-ma-ki Naruto Rendan!", how till they say it? "Na-ru-to Uzumaki Rendan?", but it won't match the 4 clones attacking. =\

    lol, perhaps they will do Na-ru-to (first three) UZUMAKI (last clone) Rendan.

    Personally I disagree about Sasuke's speech. It think it sounded just fine (that's just a matter of opinion though). I do agree about Zabuza though. Steven Blum has gone back to grunting and growling to sound "evil" it seems. I REALLY hope this changes by episode 19.

    Maybe they'll just cut it to U-zu-ma-ki Rendan? I think that would work out ok. My friends and I almost never call eachother by our first names (3 Chris's, 2 Matt's, 2 Jay's get confusing).

    sasuke throws a "loser" at the end for good measure.

    I'm impressed that they didn't edit alot from this episode. You still have blood dripping from kakashi, needles all over sasuke and naruto's bodies, and "GASP" they didn't cover up the Naruto/Sasuke kissing scene! (Which probably made no sense to anyone actually following just the dubs)

    I don't like the Naruto echo voice. Just feels like an artificial cover up for a lack of acting ability on the VA's behalf.

    I completely missed the kiss scene replay. Makes you wonder why they cut it out in the first place. Weird inconsistencies...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

    Also, the "loser" at the end was in Japanese (as "baka" I think). I guess they just chose to emphasize Sasuke's jerk side with that line in English.

    Sasuke is starting to wear on me with his lack of emotion, i haven't seen the episode where he gives his dying speech yet though. Blum did an awesome job with Zabuza's speech, when he's lying next to a dead Haku. next week si the debut of the Sand siblings (I think, unless i'm an episode behind since I haven't caught it on tv in a while) it's Chuunin exam timeeee

    My memory might be fuzzy but next week should have Neji, Rock Lee, et al as well.

    episode 19 was done really good. the only thing that really sucked was naruto's speech to zabuza about haku. zabuza sounded elite though.

    Ya, and the only other thing i thin k they couldve done better on is that when Zabuza killed Gato, they took out " We can find out together in hell, if I'm only a baby demon or not!" *Pwoons Gato*.

    I'm sad I missed it (haven't been able to watch it for the past 3 weeks). Hopefully they'll show a rerun of it. I'm also looking forward to hearing more of the Genin this Saturday.

    I hope not, that whole Ero-Sennin arc was hilarious. I also hope they keep those shots of Naruto Falling into Tsunades "Valley of the Gods". I want to punch the kid out of jealousy. I mean if I hadn't seen the japanese version first I would love this naruto. I don't think anything could compare to the original, but I think they overall did a pretty good job.

    But just wait till its get popular, the "Parents who are to busy to teach their kids right and wrong" groups will be out in force to make naruto nice for a 4 year old audience.

    Just saw episode twenty there. While it was never one of my favorite episodes, as I recall (or it may just be that the over the top wackyness doesn't come over well in the dub) it has one of the best Kakashi quotes in it. "Sorry I'm late. I got lost on the journey of life". Am I the only one who thinks Kakashi's dub voice actor is brilliant. He makes kakashi sound unfazed and almost bored whenever he says anything, which is the impression I've always gotten from him.
