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?

dubbed anime usually isn't good. the original with subs r better. a lot of the times the voices don't match at all. i agree with Solipsist. naruto is going to sound really gay. lol. i mean, the guy who plays vash is going to b naruto i think. and the guy who plays spike from cowboy bebop is going to b kakashi. >< if im correct, then thats going to sound really wrong. but when i don't feel like reading subs, i'll listen to the dubbed version.
