I like them both. Original Japanese and Funi dub fits pretty much every characters imo but the one voice that surprised me was Fat Buu XD It was soooo deep

I was listening to Ocean Dub yesterday. The surfer Goku made me laugh haha. I think we all have different tastes because of what we grew up watching. I mean I think Sean and some of the first ones I posted were pretty much Goku for me because I grew up watching them. Also, I watched the Spanish dub first so Goku's voice was in Spanish for me and so was everyone else's.

I've tried watching Japanese version, but I can't. I'm sure the people who grew up with the Japanese version find it entertaining. However, the voices to me are not my taste. What I am saying is that whatever version you grew up with is probably the one you are going to like the best.

I think its pointless to have 2 English versions (Ocean and Funi).
Was it really that hard for them to air Funi over there?

I grew up with Ocean dub which I hate now.
Found Funi dub online and have seen pretty much the entire series in that dub.
And have seen various episodes/clips of Japanese, but admittedly not the whole series. Japanese is good, I could probably watch Japanese or Funi and be happy either way.

Not quite sure I undersatnd what you mean, here. Ocean came before Funi, and then Funi remade the old Ocean's.

has anyone ever stopped to think that maybe Trunks just bought his sword somewhere or something? There's nothing really special about it.

Well it did manage to slice Frieza into a shishkebab so it must've been packing more power than your average blade. Hell even Zelda's sword couldn't pull off that ****.

I don't believe in power levels after the Frieza Saga. :D
Now, there's an idea.

Ocean dubbed Android-Buu for Canada and parts of Europe.

Ohhhhhh. So how did that work? Did Ocean get back together for that, or soemthing?

Yeah and the dub wasn't the best. They used Funimation scripts btw.

So, is there any known reason for Ocean dong this now instead of finishing the job they started earlier? I imagine the realized what a big cash-cow they dropped and tried to pick up some of the scraps by finishing their own dub.

Funimation decided to take over around the Ginyu episodes.
Idk why Ocean decided to dub it for Canada and parts of Europe.

I know the story of how/when the dubs changed; that was back when I was a kid and watching it. It pissed me off at first, ha. I just don't understand why they decided to do it for Candad/ Europe later or why Canada/Europe didn't just use Funi.
