Having been born in England and sharing Korean, Chinese, Japanese and French nationalities.

Recently I figured that I can't stand Americanised anime anymore, or let's call it "dubbed". In fact I couldn't stand it when Dragonball Z first started on Cartoon Network, and the immense theme song "Chala head chala" which lived in every child's heart in Asia became, "Dragon....Dragon..Rock the Dragon...Dragonball z...dewdewdewdew(annoying guitaring)". The companies that dub the animes normally have poor transalations as well, but worst of all, are the names. Initial D's Takumi became Tak and Itsuki became Iggy!!!!!! Although somehow I do realise they are starting to get slightly better, eg Witch Hunter Robin, if they'd left out the theme song, I'd hate dubbed anime forever. Don't you feel though that, these dubbing companies are ruining the impact and potential the anime has on a cultured civilisation?

Anyone feel the same?

Some characters' voices shouldn't be changed, IMO. Thats why I hate dubbing.
Naruto's going to sound extremely stupid. I'm gonna cry when I see it air on CN.
