I think either the opening or the ending would be cut. Most of these animes are 23-24 minutes and to fit an American half hour block you would have to cut the time somewhere for commercials, like Adult Swim did with InuYasha, cutting out the openings.

Noooooo!! they cant cut the beginning and ending themes! they rule! This show is going to be so horribly raped its not going to be funny. The only exception is if they use this cast
Naruto-greg ayres
Sasuke-chris patton
Sakura-hillary haag
shikamaru-kevin corn
orochimaru-andy mcavin or mark hamill
kakashi-jason douglas
zabuza-david lucas (they might cast him as orochimaru tho...ug
anko-marcy rae
I have other choices. i'll post them later
Unfortunately having the DVDs uncut doesn't necessarily mean that the DVDs wont have all the blood edited out. I wish the DVDs would be uncut and unedited, and essentially the only difference from the original version being the dubbed tracks. I'm really doubting that I'll bother to buy the DVDs, but I do know I'll wait for a few episodes to air on tv before I make my final decision.
You think they'll pronounce Naruto just like the 3 flash films that are mentioned in another topic?
They pronounced it as Nejroetow [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]
Or the traditional way of saying it as we all do, just plain 'ol Naruto like they say in the anime.
Most (if not all) of these people work for ADV. ShoPro has licensed Naruto, so they'll be using the Ocean Studio VAs. That is excluding Blum (David Lucas) of course.Originally posted by: ilovegregayres

None of these will in the eng. Dub, however I do agree with most of your choices. I think Patton would kick-arse as sasuke.
PS: I pronounce if naRUto - but that's only because it was introduced to me that way. It's what people called it.
I know it's NAruto, but I can't bring myself to break the habbit.
<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
you..have...got...to...be...kidding. naruto is going to be horrible......i think im going to cry...not really....im just MAD! ShoPro can go lick a frog and let ADV license Naruto! gosh......Im glad you agree with Chris Patton tho. Hes a great voice actor (especially in Chrono Crusade and Full Metal Panic) I think youre right though....all of my dvds that have those voice actors (except mark hamill and david lucas) are all adv....T_T; grrrr. lol your pronounceation (i know i spelled that wrong) is no worse than my friends. she used to call him Na-Rah-Too. where she got that...the world may never knowOriginally posted by: xanbcoo

Blum=Shikamaru
it actually fits, i thought about it for like half an hour and its the only character i could imagine the voice for, except the bug guy, but he doesnt have enough lines for Blum... now what interests me more is who is going to be doing Gaara and Orochimaru :]
Ummm...
Blum is already doing Kakashi. I think that was confirmed a long while ago.
Shikamaru's voice is gonna be hard to place in english. He's got that almost-high-pitched-lazy-complaining-but-also-confident-drawl to his voice that's gonna sound obnoxious if not done right in English.
Same with Lee. They're gonna make him way too goofy.
Gaara - any dude with a deep/menacing voice will work well. Let's just hope that he doesn't sound like Kaworu from Evangelion in English (Gaara and Kaworu have the same jap VA). Maybe the guy who does Miroku in Inuyasha, he'd work well if you put a crab in his pants.
Orochimaru - It's not a joke to me anymore, Michael Jackson would be killer as Oro. I can honestly picture that.
Edit: as I said before, Blum would work as anyone. Using the Kazuma voice from Scryed, I agree he'd be PERFECT as shikamaru. Sadly that's not the case.
<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
EVERYONE... SHHHH!!! all i got to say is here are the official so far found VA's They might switch them with so ShoPro people.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0409591/
go check it out.. and stop wondering
Cast (in alphabetical order)
Steven Jay Blum .... Kakashi (voice: English version)
Johnny Yong Bosch .... Naruto (voice: English version)
Mark Hildreth .... Sasuke (voice: English version)
Rachael Lillis .... Sakura (voice: English version)
Eric Stuart .... Gara (voice: English version)
Yeah, as if the guy doesn't have enough heat on him. Doing a voice for the next major youth program will certainly help to clear his name.Originally posted by: xanbcoo
Orochimaru - It's not a joke to me anymore, Michael Jackson would be killer as Oro. I can honestly picture that.
Johnny Yong Bosch .... Naruto (voice: English version) what animes has he done so i can check them out and hear his voice cause i dont think ive ever heard it before
is he a teenager or a kid sorry to be annoying but i kinda just got into anime about a year or so ago so i dont know any of the english dub voice actors except the guy that did higes dub voice on wiolfs rain lol
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0097765/
a list of some of his roles, but god, how hard is it to follow a link?
sig made by Itachi-y2k5, thanks, dude!
Currently Watching: probably a show directed at 9 years old girls, lets be honest.
You know the important distinction between Batman and me? Batman is fictional. In real life, there isn't always an alternative.
Dude that guys a power ranger! I recognize him right on the spot. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
HOLY SHIT!!!!
JOHNNY YOUNG BOSCH IS DOING NARUTO??????
That's awesome!!!
He's a great Voice Actor! Holy Shit, I love that!!
We don't have to worry any more about Naruto's VA. It's official! (in my book at least...)
Who da fuck is the guy voicing sasuke??
<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs

Edit: insulting pharse deleted.
actually, i didn't even notice it was you when i wrote this post, it was just a general comment (as in "you don't know who he is? do a search on his name"), nothing perssonality, realy.
as for the big shots in anime dubbing, i can't really comment, as i live in a none-english speaking country, so i don't really bother with dubbed animes.

People who can't use google suck, and therefore, you suck.
No hard feelings then.
I meant "who da fuck" is he, as in "I've never heard of this guy." Johnny Young Bosch is a big name in dubbed anime, so I reacted immediately to hearing his name (I personally think this is a great choice for Naruto). Even before I posted, I had already looked up Hildreth's voice acting roles. My comment about who he was intended to show I've never heard of him at all.
AnimeNewsNetwork also has some English VAs listed for the Naruto cast.
Stephanie Sheh as Hinata (never heard of her either, apparently she's in Rave Master and Zatch Bell)
Colleen O'Shaughnessey as Ino and Konohamaru (this is great choice! For any oldschool digimon fans, this was Sora's VA. She's also in Zatch Bell)
Steve Kramer: as Sandaime Hokage (I honestly can't remember his voice that well, but reading his voice credits I recognize him as the typical "old geezer voice" from a lot of anime...crap)
As for the IMDB cast listings, I hear that none of these voices have actually been confirmed. ANN is more trustworthy when it comes to an anime cast, but if the information Saionjik posted is true then:
I've already mentioned Blum. He'll be ok as Kakashi, a good overall VA.
Bosch plays Vash on Trigun and Kiba in Wolf's Rain (he's a personal favorite VA of mine). He also plays Claus on "Last Exile". I suspect he'll be using that voice if he is to play Naruto.
Hildreth plays "Heero" in some Gundam series (I've never seen any Gundam, so I wouldn't know about him)
Rachael Lillis is most recognizable as Misty on Pokemon (oh Jesus...whatever, Sakura sucks anyway)
and Eric Stuart is Brock from Pokemon and Kaiba from Yugioh...SHIT.
last thoughts: They f***ed up Gaara and Hokage's voices so far, but as for the main character and Kakashi, I think they've chosen some top notch VAs!
<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
Jesus... im kinda glad my directv antena doesn't work anymore...
unconfirmed or not... a power ranger as Naruto's voice? That seriously gave me a bad mental image...
Kakashi's VA... only have heard him as Sanjuro on the hack games... really don't know his other works (I mean... never heard them)
Although I have heard the ones playing Sakura and Gaara in porkemon... damn bad choices...
Oh well, not that Im really going to watch this dub anyways... hope I will never have to see the latin-dub *shudders*
EDIT: for those that don't know, Im mexican (so to not get on a flaming war over my latin-dub comment), I just come and go, so people don't really pay me attention
Bosch may have been a power ranger, but he's a damn good voice actor.
I hated him as Vash, but only because Masaya Onosaka is my hero. lol.
Otherwise, he's really good and fits the characters he plays quite well. He did a great job as Kiba in Wolf's Rain (sounded like the original VA and brought his own talent to the role), and as Claus in Last Exile. For that, he did a great job as coming off as a young teenager, so I hope he can do the same as Naruto.
This is all unconfirmed however. The users at IMDB says it happens a lot that a cast is listed on the basis that fans say they SHOULD be listed...weirdos...
<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
Heero Yuy's voice for Sasuke.....may actually not be too bad
Heero Yuy's voice for Sasuke sounds pretty damn good, a badass assh*le (well, before Relena lol) for a badass assh*le, about the same seriousness... sounds about right
If the girl doing Sakura was Misty from Pokemon, it might be a good choice after all...
Vash's dub VA sounds like a good pick for Naruto, I think his over enthusiastic and energetic voice works well for Naruto
Steve Blum has done SEVERAL roles, and is extremely good VA, examples: Spike of Cowboy Bebop, Mugen of Samurai Champloo, Jamie of Megas XLR (I was stunned when I found that one out) as well as others. He does best, in my opinion, for the character that's just seen simply as the badass, thus for Kakashi it works.
Not sure on the pick for Hokage, it could work...
