Set Fail! (Redux)

Well, gotta see the Funnimation dub of One Piece. I know it`s been discussed into oblivion, but I`m gonna put my general thoughts here, for the sake of future generations, and epic lulz ( Read more... )

Sure, why not. I'll give my take.

Luffy: The character's alright, but the voice actor needs to give more OOMPH to her voice. Luffy is energetic, not spaztastic like the 4kids version, but not mildly amused like the way funi has done it thus far.
Zoro: >:| See Vincent's responce - the Not part.
Nami: Actually, oddly enough, see Luffy. Same problem.
Usopp: ALSO AGREED! He's perfect, which sucks!
Sanji: I'm casting the ballet here. FAIL SANJI IS FAIL! He's just to plain, and it's mostly just to please the fans who are pissed about the cold Sanji's voice.
Chopper: Dead on.
Robin: >: D Very nice!

(Sorry for taking so long to reply!)
Pretty much agreed on all points. Here`s hoping they don`t slaughter Buggy and [Tr]Ace.

I`m suprized Dre hasn`t chimed in yet! I do hope her internets haven`t dropped out from under her again.

Buggy, to be frank, I could care less. He's not really all that important of a character. Then again, I despise Satori and what 4kids did to him made me go insane for 5 hours on end. So, maybe I shouldn't be so pre-emptive to not giving a shit. Still, I doubt they could really piss me off. Ace on the other hand has me worried as shit.

Ironically enugh, yes, yes it has. She's trying to fix that with her crackers, AS WE SPEAK!

Buggy and Ace, though, were both characters that actually had decent 4-kids dubs. And the more I think about Ace, the worse he sounds in my head.

LOL WOW! Well, at least this time, shes got a plan B. Right....?

Ya, Buggy was wild and annoying, like the other Buggy, and Trace may have had like a stoner voice, but the voice actor rocked. He sounded kinda like a tripped out surfer, but I mean shit cap'n, he has a fuckin' surf board with a sail! It really was okay. My prediction: Ace'll get the same shit deal Sanji got.

And ya, yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. Dre, thinking ahead, suuuuuuuuuure.

Also, hearing Sogeking sung in different languages makes you cry.

I liked them both, but yeah, you`re prolly right.

She`s got that whole Comcast thing, doesn`t she? Are/were you on the phone with her, or something? I need to get in contact with her, but I can`t call.

Wait...what?

You forgot to log in.

Of course I'm right, they're gonna set fail in a whole new way. One Piece cannot live in dub form!

Nope.

Sogeking theme, it's murder in german and spanish.

DID NOT! :P

Well, we`ll see, I guess.

You`re not? Then how do you know about her tubes issues?
Regardless, I need to convey a message tonight, and I can`t call. Any chance I could ask a small favor?

You know what kills me? The fact that the Sogeking theme is STILL not in english! If 4kids or Funi weren`t dragging their feet...

Suuuuuuuuure.

Sadly, that's all we can do at this point. Wait and see... ugh.

I AM GOD! I KNOW ALL! And sure, but she's busy right now, so it may have a bit of delay.

DUDE!! IT WILL SUCK! IT WILL NOW BE FUCKING KRILLIN SINGING THE SOGEKING SONG! KRILLIN!

Yup. Just wait and see. I`m going to try and have fun with it at this point.

Wait...Eneru?
That`s fine. I just need to relay a message, tonight, and if you could get some kind of reply from her, that`d be great too.

I actually have a theory about that. The guy who did Krillin also did Major Hughs from Fullmetal Alchemist, who`s voice was a scoch deeper and more manly, but still capable of the emotional range. I think that`s how Sogeking`s gonna work.
Krillin = Usopp
Hughs = Sogeking
