i hope naruto never get licensed

Daff · Sat, 12-27-2003, 02:05 AM

i've seen it to often. a real good anime is licensed by someone and poorly translated (naruto is named joe and so on) dubbed and broadcasted at prime times like 2 p.m.
i'm ok with that but then the realy horrofying stuff shows up. bad merchandising and kids Kids KIDS. they are talking about the anime all the time and are making up things i wouldn't make up if i were on crack. i hate it.

umm.......yeah pretty much

**XwingRob** · Sun, 12-28-2003, 05:58 AM

Naruto can get licensed, after it's over.

**Elite Hentai** · Sun, 12-28-2003, 06:50 AM

If it ever gets licenced and broadcasted on tv they should wait untill most people have digital cable and you can choose languages. They should use the fansub translations because they can't translate properly.

If it gets dubbed correctly with everything the same just in English, it'll be alright. Don't be stingy....

Exactly. Higher quality dubs are more and more common now a days. Funimation has improved from their DBZ days, Viz and Bandai have put out many good dubs with everything intact, and Geneon and Media Blasters are pretty good too. Yeah, it'd suck if 4Kids liscensed it and made their 'improvements' to it, but most of the dubbing companies would treat it with respect and release a subbed version anyways.

Most every proffesional sub are better than fansubs. I can think of very few exceptions to this rule. And besides, the subs will be available on DVD, and by buying the DVD's you support a show that you enjoy watching.

LOL

As for funi and DBZ.. maybe it's just that I never watched an ep of DBZ properly in jap but I thought the dub was pretty good... though I did see some moives in Jap and subbed..... MAN they ruined them with putting stupid Rock music into EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM. It doesn't suit them at all... and for the life of me I can't imagine rock music being used in movie 12 against Janemba but knowing them they are gonna shove it in anyway.

Sometimes the dubs are bad(BTW, DBZ was dubbed by Funimation), but some leave all the names the same, including the attack names. It all depends on who gets the rights to dub it.

Besides, outside of 4Kids, most companies include a sub track on their DVD, so no one is forcing you to watch it dubbed. </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'>
Bandai dubbed the first season of DBZ.

Nope, Funimation dubbed the first 2 seasons of DBZ, but they did it under strict orders of SABAN(not Bandai, although they have worked together in the past).

**not_sponsored** · Tue, 12-30-2003, 05:52 AM

Does it matter? Well in the offical "translated" version in US Shonen Jump Naruto does yell "Shadow Doppleganger" instead of "kage bunshin no jutsu"... which really irks me.

**hinatachanfanboy** · Tue, 12-30-2003, 05:58 AM

Yeah, but it could be worse. It's still mostly the same, plus anime and manga's usually end up with different translations in the US.
