I don't get what Japanese king Kai's voice actor's deal is. He clearly isn't trying. You see a really animated King Kai in the show when he raging at Goku or something but then the voice has no emotion behind it at all. They really need to replace that guy. He's an embarrassment. And this is from someone who loves the rest of the Japanese cast. (But English Goku is better)But it's like King Kai's voice actor, if that's the best you can do then f*** off lol. |

I believe they used the same voice actor from the original dragonball. She voiced Goku from the very start. (He was a kid) That's why he has a girly voice. |

Damn, I thought much more people here would be in favor of DBZ in Japanese. Yes, Goku's voice in Japanese is horrible, but Freeza's in English is much worse. The Japanese DBZ Anime is really faithful to the original Manga, too, not to mention the script in the English Dub is so bad it rivals the 4Kids One Piece dub, and I don't say that lightly since I'm a One Piece fanboy. Anyway, I don't care about either the dub or the sub versions overall, unless they bastardize the series like the Funimation Dub in DBZ or 4Kids Dub in One Piece. That's because the voice actor for King Kai in Japanese is actually 90 something. I don't blame him. Edited by Big Green The Yoshi, Aug 28 2015, 11:26 AM.

That said Nozawa is a decade younger (78) and can still portray emotion. In addition he should still retire from his role as King Kai. The narrator role though I'm fine with him keeping, it's just when the animation and the voice acting contrast so much... Just yikes. Yeah, English dub is far better, particularly Kai, Freeza is just great there in every respect. Honestly I can't even hate the funi dub for it's hope of the universe speech. And. Big Green is silly. I would definitely say the English dub for Haruhu definitely has the better Kyon, and the other leads sans Haruhi are about the same. Situation is reversed in the Japanese dub, with Haruhi being the best, but I thunk Kyon is the most central character so I give the point to English dub here. He just has a weirdness to him that lets you believe he'd end up doing all this stuff eventually. |

How is English Frieza bad? I think he sounds really snide and cruel, certainly fits the character. I like his Japanese voice too but I don't see how the English one is particularly bad. Unless you're talking about the Ocean Dub one I remember that being fairly bad. They also do Cell way better in English he starts off fairly raspy and sinister and then when he becomes Perfect he sounds eloquent and smooth. Whereas in Japanese in all three forms he has the exact same voice. I would think that the perfect being should become better and better in all regards instead of just stay the same

I think Willingham's voice suits Ginko a lot better in Mushishi, so I'll add that to the list. |
