I was there on that fateful day, were you?
Your place for discussion about RPGs, gaming, music, movies, anime, computers, sports, and any other stuff we care to talk about...
Still think it's a joke, Eric?
- Your favorite band sucks, and you have terrible taste in movies.
The dub still sucks. I wish they cared more about that.
Rosalina: But you didn't.
Robert: But I DON'T.
Rosalina: You sure that's right?
Robert: I was going to HAVE told you they'd come?
Rosalina: No.
Robert: The subjunctive?
Rosalina: That's not the subjunctive.
Robert: I don't think the syntax has been invented yet.
Rosalina: It would have had to have had been.
Robert: Had to have...had...been? That can't be right.

I believe I was staying on topic, since the topics are Naruto, fansubs, Viz, and DB.
And that's what I mean. I've been a big supporter of modern dubs, but Naruto's was really taking a step backwards. Some of the voices work, but the ones that don't are just grating (including/especially Naruto).

Oh, yeah, that too. It was a useless phrase. Treat it as one.

As I mentioned, "kidifying" anime is a totally different story; it's not poor dubbing, it's a poor decision to retool a story to an audience it wasn't written for. The end result may be the same, but it's a very different issue to address.
Just because you try to take a show that was designed for Japanese 10yo kids, and make it into something for American 10yo kids, doesn't mean they get to slack off on the dubbing.

They dumbed down the plots and "adjusted" the slang/grammar. It's not poor dubbing, it's intentional dumbing down of the show because Japanese 10 year olds aren't the same as American 10 year olds.
So, they gave Naruto a smoker's lung on purpose?

Good news is it'll be free streaming for one week per ep. I'd still prefer to download but this will do for now (as long as I can watch it on the Wii).

Will I be able to watch a bunch of episodes at a time? This is great and all, but some people don't want to watch them right away.

I didn't see anything regarding archived episodes so I'm not sure
But I still wanna download them regardless. I watch this stuff on my TV through my 360 and also like to occasionally go back to them. So I'll be looking for another source to download even if I watch them weekly on the official site.
