All the Naruto I have seen was with subtitles. I absolutey refused to try the English dubbed.

As for all you Miyasaki fans... he made a lovely little movie about a princess on a planet that was mainly desert and she lived in a valley of wind...

It first came to America in the 80s/90s under the title "Warriors of the Wind". I personally believe that the monstrosity was the reason Miyasaki took forever to release stuff in US again.

Are you talking about Nausicca of the Valley of the Wind? Or is "Warriors of the Wind" a different film entirely?

Exact same thing. COMPLETELY different approach to dubbing. Remember the person who did Rocky the Squirrel? THAT was Nausicca.

I had an old boyfriend who had all this illegal bootlegs of Miyasaki films. So... we watched them. I liked them. Then he showed me "Warriors of the Wind" to show me how hilariously awful it was.

YouTube - Warriors Of The Wind(1984)

I'm afraid this doesn't do it justice.

Don't get me wrong. Great movie... when done correctly either with subtitles or decent dubbing/editing.

The claim was that the quality of the movie/show/anime is better when watched in Japanese. After I watched a few English dubbed and compared them, I found I had to agree. The translation in the subtitles isn't always entirely accurate, but then the translation to the dub isn't always accurate either, and then you don't even have the original Japanese to compare it to. Plus, the English voices are almost always more annoying.
ya i agree a lot of dubbed can be downright awful but there are certainly a few that are done rather well. inuyasha,ghost in the shell,evangelion, full metal alchamist, morbito are a few that are done fairly well.

my favorites are defently ghost in the shell and evangelion as far as anime goes. heck as far as tv shows go period they are my two favorite.

morbito is pretty good. ya i enjoyed inuyasha used to watched it constantly on adult swim. cowboy bepop and trigun are amazing too. blue drop is pretty good too.

bleach i cant watch anymore same with naruto and of course dbz started it all for me

ive watched probably far to many animes to list and i certainly cant remeber them all lol. quite honestly id have to really think and look at some my dvds to see what ive watched cause i cant remeber it all lol.

but want a crazy off the wall anime? watch dog warrior lol 13 episodes. and FLCL 6 episodes.

For some reason, whenever I think of DBZ the first thing that pops in my head is the song "I will always love you".....

I know this may offend some DBZ fans but...

How many DBZ characters does it take to change a lightbulb?

Why change the lightbulb when they can just go super seyan and have all the light they need?
