the NA dub...

[ainominako]

I chose #2, It SUCKS! I HATE it! I get sick when I watch it. I can stand to watch the dubbed for a little bit, but it makes me so angry that I have to turn it back to Japanese.

I'm always ranting about how wrong it is and how it's messed up the show at whatnot... so now I have a place to get it all out of my system! I'm sure SOMEONE out there understands the way I feel... so tell me about it!

Let it loose! Rant and rave! ...or tell my why you... *shudder* like it... (yes, I need you to justify that opinion to me, because I do not understand how anyone could like that)

[arwentheelf02]

Agreed, ainominako. I hate it, it's awful, blah blah blah. For me, the main reasons are 1. The AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL voices, 2. The changed info/attack names 3. The HORRIBLE WRITING (slaaaaang)

But, I'm so desperate for ANY SM anime...

[TotallyUsagi]

Hmm... it sucks but I watch it anyway whenever it's on (it's not on now tho...) I even wish that it would come back on just so I can see Sailor Moon ;_; it comes on quite a bit on the local channels here, but it comes on for like a couple months then goes off for a couple months.... it'll probably be back on when school starts.

I could and still can watch the first two dubbed seasons without too much discomfort.. probably because I saw those two before I was able to watch any of the Japanese. But when the Outers came in and some of the original voices were also changed....... I just could not stand it anymore. Luckily, thats when they came out with the dual language dvds..

[ainominako]

Geez... Of course, I can rant about the awfulness of the dub because I'm never exposed to it anymore, but if it still came on TV here at all, believe me, I would watch it. But, given the option and opportunity, I can't watch the dub of my own accord.

Haruka and Michiru... cousins?! Oh, oh, I mean Amara and Michelle...

*bleegh...*

and those voices... If I knew someone with a voice like... serena's... I might have to kill them... Call it public service...

Yeah, my thoughts exactly.

[Priss]

I could watch the whole series, but I would probably die from laughing so hard before it was through. I find the dub hilarious, the voice actors do such a terrible job!

[LadyCrystal]

I watched seasons 1-4 on dub and I know it's innacurate but I like to watch it.I hated Usagi/Serena's voice.It was irratating to me.On the Black Dream Hole Pluto sounded weird when she said "Dead Scream"...><'

[flannary]

When Sailor Moon first was on Cartoon Network, I had to watch the dub otherwise I couldn't watch the show. But back then I didn't even know Japan was a country(I was about 4 then or something). So I can stand it but I will NOT listen to the dub of Sailor Stars, they turned one of my favorite characters(Pluto) into a really really annoying person with the voice. I couldn't even understand what she was saying when she said 'Death Scream'. I was like 'What did she say?!'.

I'm not the biggest fan of dub's but I do like some dub's. I do Love what Bandai and ADV films does with anime.(But I don't really like the Scrapped Princess dub of Bandai) But I hate 4-kids to death. They destoryed Tokyo Mew Mew.

[numbmelody]

Ahhhh! I watched that once! (Tokyo Mew Mew dub) I wasn't familiar with that series, so I poked around online to find out about it... and .. it didn't seem like they had changed all that much from the (single) episode I saw, but ... the with the stuff they did change.. there was no point in watching the dub at all (did that make sense?) From what I read, they changed the focus of it from something like "save the animals" to "I want a boyfriend" ... Its just -- it's just -- what's the point?? What a horrible waste of money.

Uhhh, sorry, that was off subject.
The BSSM dub: I first saw that when I was,, like, seven, and, having no idea what anime was and a very high tolerance for extreme crap, I loved it. I remember me and my friends collected pictures of sailor moon off the internet. One time my friend and I, being the cute-little-naive-girls we were stumbled onto a hentai sailor moon site... yeaaaahhh... "Why is Jupiter's skirt falling off??"

Urk -- I apologize for my insane ramblings ...

[flannary]

Off topic for a minute - Tokyo Mew Mew, They changed everything about it! I love the series and the manga the story was great. But then 4-kids had to get their greedy little hands on it, and create the worse dub ever made. Their is a site about the difference about the original and the dubed version. They cut 3 minutes out of every episode!

Back on topic - I also collected Sailor Moon images but I never came across a hentai site and I'm gald I didn't. If my mom would find that she would kill me.

[arwentheelf02]

Back in the NA dub days, I first discovered the Outer Senshi by watching the S movie. I couldn't figure out what Uranus was saying when she did her attack...it sounded like "Uranus World CHICKEN!!!"

Spawned endless amounts of jokes. At least the NA dub is good for THAT...^^

[sailorvbunny]

I chose the first one. I just can't stand to watch how they could ruin such a lovely anime. I would rather be desperate for the japanese one.

[arwentheelf02]

Actually, now, I've gotten so used to hearing the Japanese voices that one time I accidentally downloaded a dub movie file, and when I heard it, I screamed!

[sailorvbunny]

Oh me too! Before, I didn't get to watch whole japanese versions so I downloaded clips. And when it was in english, I wanted to crash the moniter.
