Dragon Ball Super

All hail Zamasu.

I dunno if anyone else has noticed this, but they really like using that reverb effect on Sean Schemmel's screams don't they? Like a whole lot as a matter of fact. I know why it's used(it can amplify a scream to make it sound really cool) but I feel someone who is known for screaming wouldn't need all those effects on his voice.

That final fight with Goku, Frieza and Android 17 vs. Jiren gave me a huge smile.

Here's something that's just occurred to me: What does it say about the show - and us - that a lot of people seem to have wound up cheering for Frieza, of all people, in the final episode? Just a year ago, that would've seemed a near impossibility. In some strange way, Ryusei Nakao got his wish for Frieza to be a good guy (although we're kidding ourselves if we think he's completely changed).

Sounds like Rose Goku Black has no accent in the anime. It sounds pompous, but you don't hear the British accent layered on the voice like it used to.

The whole changing voices when you transform thing, has more or less been rectified now. With Schemmel having a better understanding of the character in the anime, it gave him a chance to tweak the voice he used for Goku Black much more.

I can’t get no satisfaction.

And with that Super comes to an end in Japan.

As Shaun Ince said, between how a lot of the seiyuus have been talking about it, how even the show said that we will see these characters again real soon and considering how 2019 will be both the 30th anniversary of Z and the 10th anniversary of Kai, there's no doubt in my mind that it will return as early as April of next year.

But until then we got the Dragon Ball Super movie AND the rest of the Funimation dub to look forward to watching, really interesting to see how they will cast the rest of the new characters for the Tournament of Power arc. Patrick Seitz as Jiren already proving to be an interesting casting choice. I'm also curious to see if Chris Ayres will be well enough to do the entirety of this arc or if Daman Mills will fill in again. Also the last episode's animation was so friggin' good, amazing how far the show's come since it began so poorly. It may not have been a perfect show but the HYPE was real.

"Til we meet again, Son Goku" indeed.

While Dragonball Super is over & done with, Dragonball as a whole, is definitely going to continue. That's practically a given. The chances of another anime that could explore unresolved plot threads is pretty high.

I'm gonna miss this show. Till we meet again, Son Goku

The last episode was awesome as hell. The Rose episode.. well, at least Sean toned the brit down.

Saw the latest Super episode. Yeah the Super Saiyan Rosé voice retain from the games. I fully understand why Sean Used that voice during the Rosé form and it helped when Zamasu speak during the last minute of the episode. I'll keep watching if you need more persuasion. Not a bad take on the character.

The wild ride is over. Super was a series with many highs and lows. But having regular Dragon Ball content almost every week was something really special. Takes me back to childhood when this was all new to me. Even if it wasn't always the best. Of course, this cash cow isn't going down anytime soon. We've got that moving coming after all. Hopefully it'll be as good as its animations looks. Goodbye for now Dragon Ball Super, you sometimes magnificent, sometimes horrible thing!

...

Still better than GT.

Till we meet again, Son Goku...

This upcoming weekend is the last episode of Dragonball Super. And as for the dub, I believe it's the debut of SSJ Rose Goku Black. I'm interested in seeing how Dragonball Super will end & see whether or not Sean Schemmel has changed the voice again for Goku Black.

We got to hear the Great Priest (aka Grand Minister) last week. I think Josh Grelle did an okay job, though IMO it wasn't very memorable.

We'll be getting a Dragon Ball Super movie.

I hope people like Akio Otsuka, Atsuko Tanaka, Takehito Koyasu, Kotono Mitsuishi are in it.

I honestly have to give it to David Gray... he does a spot on impression of Sam Majesters! Funimation proves yet again that they can find a good impressionist if needed!

Everytime I see Quitela on screen, I imagine Scott McNeil's Rattrap voice coming out of him.

Just got announced that Patrick Seitz is going to voice Universe 11's Strongest Warrior... Jiren!!!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=91fXqYMkx9c
Wow! David Gray sounds exactly like Sam Majesters!

The whole controversy surrounding Sean's take on Goku Black as a Super Saiyan Rose is ridiculous on a personal level. I been to one of Hus panel and he explain the whole bit since first recorded for Black. The British accent take is definitely creative to say the least and make sense with the connection towards Zamasu.

The thing with English dub actors is they want to make their performance their own Instead of trying to imitate the Japanese counterparts who have the more freedom during recording since they're not dubbing over anything but a script.

Coming from a guy who takes acting/voice acting classes, wait till the saga is over to get a constructive criticism on the performamce. I have faith in Sean that he'll do well as an voice actor.

Also worth mentioning that there is a good chance we might get another anime for Dragonball next year, provided that everything still does really well. Either way, 2018 is going to be an interesting year for Dragonball.

My life is going to be a bit empty, knowing that Dragonball Super ends in March. The feeling of watching new Dragonball content every Saturday takes me back to when I used to watch Dragonball Z on Toonami back in the day.

While the anime is coming to a close, that doesn't mean Dragonball is finished as a whole. The manga will still continue, there's the new video game. And there is a new movie confirmed to come out at the end of this year. Also for anyone who watch the dub, there's still the FUNimation dub to watch for the time being. Though it might not interest people who already watched it in it's original language the first time around.

https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1792215214405175&id=1505770013049698

I would like to inform everyone that the bang zoom dub will be no more. Toonami Asia who funded bang zoom to produce their dub will be shutting down on March.

So... Jiren actually smiled. You know that things are about to get crazy now.

I effing love the Ultra Instinct theme.

It's a shame that this show will end in March, but oh well. It's been a fun ride even if there was some bad writing at times.

I'm looking forward to see the remaining upcoming episodes.

In a Reddit AMA, Sean Schemmel explained why Super Saiyan Rose Goku Black had an accent, and it has everything to do with Zamasu's English voice actor. Essentially at that point in time he wants to channel more of Zamasu's personality when he transforms so that's why he puts on that pseudo faux English accent. If you're wondering if he's taking the same approach that he did in the video games, for the anime, you would be correct.

Zeno is so cute.

All things considered Funimation certainly is putting a lot of effort into this dub. Not only did they manage to bring back the Vegeta from the Ocean dub back for a filler villain, they also auditioned 100 actresses for one character in order to find the right one (I wasn't even aware that Funimation had such a large talent pool). And if the rumors of James Marsters is actually Zamasu like many claim then they've officially won my respect in terms of this dub. Sabat knows what he's doing.

Watching EP47 has got me all hyped up for more episodes. I can't wait to hear Sean's act mercilessly as Goku Black.

Here's a clip of Goku Black in English. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RI-i2BfnJn4
Sean Schemmel is definitely doing a good job IMO. But will he be able to beat Masako Nozawa? We'll see...

So the anime will end in march. Despite it`s flaw this was a good show and a great followup story to after Z. It`s great to see the sub and dub cast go on new adventures with their characters in this series.

while this dosen`t mean the end of the franchise i mean it`s db but for now "until we meet again, guys"

So in preparation for the 'sh--'s about to get real tour' that begins on Saturday I decided to start this show. And it's honestly really entertaining. I'll have to keep up with it more often since it is considered to be the defining Anime and for the fact that it's really good. I just hope that my homework and Xenoblade 2 binge playing won't get in the way of me watching it...

So FUNimation has revealed the English Dub actors for Gowasu & Zamasu. Garret Schenck is Gowasu.

Zamasu's VA is credited as David Gray, which could be a pseudonym for James Marsters.

https://twitter.com/FUNimation/status/953072340073680897

so david gray is voicing zamasu. I don`t believe it`s the musician though

Brian Drummond signed us off fittingly tonight with Copy Vegeta. I'm really looking forward to the next arc. Finally onto the Goku Black/Future Trunks saga.

Getting Brian Drummond to voice Copy Vegeta was beyond awesome. And man is he killing it.

Drummond really stole the show in episode 45 as Copy Vegeta.

And also, I might be the only one here who prefers Alexis Tipton over Laura Bailey as Kid Trunks.

Brian Drummond sounds sooooooooooo good as Copy Vegeta. Both Brian and Chris rock as Vegeta, tbh! EP45 was thoroughly enjoyable.

So I was reading the dragon ball wiki, to find out any news on the Bang Zoom dub. It said they were hired for 52 episodes but only did 26 and that the BZ voice for 18 said that the dub was cancelled. No sources were given though and too lazy to scroll through her tweet history (cuz I have no idea how long ago it would've been said).

So anyone know if this is true?

Looks like I'll watch Episode 45 of Funi's Super dub for a reason.

Now all we need is a Copy Piccolo arc so that Funimation will get Scott McNeil.

Well, I was definitely very surprised that Sabat went out of his way to get Brian Drummond as Copy Vegeta.

Oh cruel fate that we must wait until January to hear this in full.
https://youtu.be/s3CtIC4ugSw

Holy crap, check out the credits of the latest dub episode. Second name from the bottom.

https://imgur.com/a/L8bJm

Nice to see Brina reprising Arale again. I can`t wait for her return in the Dr. Slump ep

@Shaun Ince

"Would you have preferred if Alexis Tipton had created her own voice for Trunks instead of imitating Laura Bailey? Personally I think she should have, but it does make you wonder if the FUNimation dub of Dragonball as a whole is on the level of let's say, Looney Tunes or Mickey Mouse library of cartoons, where the performances are that ingrained with the character, every replacement has to sound close or exactly like the original. At this point I don't think it is, because from what we've seen from Colleen Clinkenbeard & Monica Rial & even Chris Ayres, they weren't imitating former actresses, rather they were completely new & conventional takes on the characters."

I am not NCZ, but I would like to take a crack at answering this. I've also moved the discussion to a Dragon Ball related page, since I feel like we're no longer talking about the VC there, haha.

Personally, I feel like there's a clear difference between what Colleen, Monica and Chris did, vs Alexis taking over as kid Trunks. Kai, as previously established, is a redub of DBZ. That means it's of very little consequence if Colleen, Monica and Chris did drastically different takes for 18, Bulma, and Frieza, respectively. There's also the element in which I think certain intonations between Tiffany Vollmer and Monica sound similar.

But then, this creates a problem - the problem in getting Meredith McCoy back for 18. I am of the opinion that Colleen is a better VA for 18, and getting Meredith to reprise means that her voice has been made inconsistent.

So how is all this different from Alexis taking over as kid Trunks? I honestly think people would flip if they heard a drastically different voice out of his mouth, especially since Super takes place shortly after Kai. Alexis and Laura Bailey sound so similar as kid Trunks, that I honestly can't tell the difference between the two on this particular role. I'd say Funimation did an amazing job in getting Alexis to fill in.

Welp, just watched episode 118... I don't want to give anything exact away, but that was quite sad. I also enjoyed a certain cameo appearance

Just watched Episode 39 on Toonami. I knew Matt Mercer has range, but damn I have never really heard him scream. And what I heard when Hit fight Goku, that wasn't a scream... THAT WAS ROAR!!!!

While I haven't seen most of the Funimation dub, it's good to hear that most of the voice actors are doing well judging from the clips I've seen.

The Bang Zoom dub on the other hand is meh...I don't understand how the voice director thought that Lex Lang would be a great fit for Goku. Lang is horribly miscast in this role, much like Steve Blum was. Why not Michael Sinterniklaas for the role?

Is it me, or did FUNi's dub just take a swipe at Super Saiyan Blue's original name?

Who else is excited for the 1-hour marathon tonight!

I watched episode 35, and while it was brief, I did enjoy Matthew Mercer as Hit and want to hear more!

Also just a question, who else thinks the voice of Magetta is a text-to-speech program. The voice has that type of feel, and the credits say N/A.

Listen, I'm not really interested in this show or the franchise. However, I have taken an interest in the English dub voice for one character: Zamasu. Apparently he's going to be voiced by James Marsters. I didn't really care...until I learned that he was Piccolo in quite infamous Dragon Ball Evolution. It's going to be interesting to see how the fandom reacts to that. So far many fans are disappointed with the choice based on what they heard in Xenoverse, but hopefully the dub for the ark where he appears will be out so I can see the full reaction. But for now I'll be waiting with the popcorn.

so who is heck excited for matthew mercer to make his speaking debut as hit this saturday. I know I am

Well, FUNimation made another mistake in the latest episode in the dub. Vegeta calls Goku by his earth name instead of his Saiyan name. Whoops.

Now here is a question I have for anyone who wants to answer it. It's related to Zamasu. Do you reckon whoever voiced him in the dub of the video game could have also been a placeholder voice for him? We know it was the case with Hit. The same could be possible for Zamasu as well.

Now that the dub has now started with the Universe 6 tournament stuff, I have a reason to watch the dub of Super now. Was never fond of the retelling of the 2 movies in Super though I guess if no one had actually seen the movies that they adapted, in that sense it served it's purpose.

I'll be honest, does it feel like Funimation is taking a little too much creative liberty with its material? I don't know, it kinda feels like that to me.

So Funimation has revealed many of the Universe 6 arc character voices, except Zen-Oh (and a few others but Zen-Oh is the main one).

I realy hope he's voiced by Sarah Wiedenheft!

I feel like I'm the only person who didn't mind Aaron Roberts as Hit, but oh well. Looking forward to hearing Matt Mercer as the character regardless.

And everyone thought Matt was going to voice Zamasu. So it seems more likely that Zamasu is going to be voiced by James Marsters.

I was worried we'd have to wait for Bang Zoom to give Hit a better English voice. Super glad that Funi is recasting him, hope Matthew does well.

So glad to find out that Matthew Mercer is going to voice Hit in the anime of Dragonball Super.

@NCZ I know that Matt is one of your favourite actors so I'm curious on how you feel about this choice.

Just saw the cast listing for the new arc. Was shocked to see that though Cabba and Frost are keeping their Xenoverse 2 VAs, Hit is being recast.

Love Matthew Mercer and I'm sure he'll do a great job. Just wondering what happened. Did Aaron Robert's Hit not get the best reception?

Okay this has nothing to do with voice acting in particular, but has anyone ever had a Lovecraftian vibe from Berrus? Think about it, he's an all powerful, nigh invulnerable being, practically a god, who exists by morals and virtues beyond good and evil and only regards certain things as a means to an end. He's not a protagonist obviously, then again he's not an antagonist either; in fact he's not even an anti-hero, he's just a really, dangerously powerful entity who seeks pleasure and entertainment in whatever he fancies, be it violence or just a tasty meal; he almost reminds me of Nyarlathotep to some degree.

cool anastasia munoz is tights, cameo but good choice

Just realized Arale makes a cameo in the S3 filler episodes. I hope Brina voices Arale again cus that was her best character in her arsenal of db characters and she is hilarious, the last time she voiced the Character was 7 years ago

How cool would it be if they cast viz dub of sailor moon vas as the u2 fighters, that would be awesome and a fun easter egg, so far the closest we got was lauren landa as bulla in the kai dub.

It would be a fun easter egg

I wonder how long it will take for Goku and the others to realize there's something not right about the Grand Priest and the Angels.

I suspect there's more to the Tournament of Power than just the fate of the Universes.

Hiya, I have a massage from the VA (from Sentai) Molly Searcy, if she wants to cast of her character fro the show, it will be delighted for her.

https://scontent-mia3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/20246410_1406967782714999_932999109531455463_n.jpg?oh=d02b4d0fa1f1fe413f425e36f5049adf&oe=59FD4F4E

OK, things just got creepy...

Who would make two different dubs and have only one of them (Bang Zoom!) be available in Asia only? I wouldn't mind so much, except that some of the Bang Zoom! voice actors that I would like to hear in the Funimation dub...AREN'T!!!!!

I'm now curious as to who's going to voice Toppo and the other Pride Troopers in the English versions. Something tells me whoever it is will have a blast.

This week is the Universal Surival Tournament and we can agree the hype for this arc is through the roof.

The idea of a multiverse fighting tournament and winning to ensure the safety of yours is an interesting idea.

the new song limit break x surivor is so good and catachy to the point where u might consider this is a song used if dragon ball did fifa world cup songs.

the japenses vas are going to do some intersting stuff with their characters and the new jap vas involved with the show for this arc are interesting.

heck not to mention how cool it will be for funi to dub this arc. lets see our funi va universe 7 team.

We have 1 Schemmel, 1 Hebert, 1 Ayres, 1 Strait, 1 Huber, 1 McCoy, 1 Burgmeier ,
1 McFarland and 2 Sabats.
thats a cool va team.

(Note: I am aware of the recent news of the ill health Chris Ayres is going thorugh so we pray he makes a full recovery)

And the BZ version team isnt half bad either

We have 1 Lang, 1 Tang, 1 Hackney,
1 Prince, 1 Beacock, ?, 1 Ryan,
1 Thornton and 2 Chases.

Heck all that is left for the writers to ace the excution of it and than we can say this was the best season of DBS

this was certainly freeza week. he came back to super in sub, funi is now airing season 2 of the dub and derek stephen prince was announced to play freeza in the toonami asia dub.

i wouldnt mind if they reuse derek for frost like nakao then when bz does the universe surival arc we may get derek vs derek

Derek Stephen Price is playing frieza in the toonami asia dub, Once again another asian exclusive but really happy he is in dragon ball.

I get why some actors cant work on the funi dub but damn it wendee lee atleast save some for funi`s dub

Well, I was half right. Caulifla is indeed the first official female Super Saiyan. She's just not the Legendary version they've been hyping up to now (and which we will be seeing next week). In some ways, that's probably for the best, not least because it would've opened the door to innumerable Broly-Cauli jokes. You can't really do that with Kale.

so lets go thorugh our english va universe 7 team.

we have 1 Schemmel, 1 Hebert, 1 Strait, 1 McCoy, 1 Huber , 1 Ayres and 2 Sabats.

thats a really nice team when funi dubs that arc

Yet another awesomely talented VA on BZ's dub: https://youtu.be/tzsXEnjObD4?t=1058

Paul specifically mentions having sessions alongside Gundam Iron Blooded Orphans. So we're definitely sure it's on BZ's dub. Incredibly psyched to hear him take on DB.

hey guys incase you are curious about the bang zoom dub of season 2, toonami india have confirmed on their fb page that they will air it in late summer of 2017 so arround funi airing the universe 6 arc.

honestly glad they did this hiatus so bz has more time to record episodes, one of the reasons why the ocean dub of dbz androids saga and buu saga was criticized due to how rushed it was, so good decision on that front.

i am curious about bz representation since the actors said they would try new voices for resurrection f, kaiji tang reallly hypes this up on twitter and ray chase said freeza is his most hated anime character in a crunchyroll video (hes not going to like the death scene they planned for his character)

honestly the writing in the show bothers me the most especially considering kai had some good writing so hopefully the writers have improved.

Sweet! The new episode aired today on Toonami. Jason Liebrecht and Caitlin Glass are still voicing Champa and Vados in the dub!

There has been something I've been wondering for the past couple of months ever since the dub of Super came out. It's in regards to Alexis Tipton as Trunks. Is she a temporary replacement until Laura Bailey is available to return? Or is she replacing Laura Bailey completely?

There's also another worth bringing up & it's related to Xenoverse 2 & it's latest DLC. The game has missions that have dialogue relevant to the story that's going on within that time. Kid Trunks has new dialogue in one of the missions. Were they able to get Laura Bailey back for that? Or was Alexis filling in as Trunks for the DLC?

so Jeannie Tirado is going to voice baby pan in the funimation dub, thats interesting cus usually elise baughman voices her and while she dosent voice act as much she does reprise pan.

granted this may not apply to kid pan and no disrespect to elise but i wouldnt Jeannie get a shot at voicing kid pan in the near future

Google is doing the Zamasu voices again except of Matt Mercer before it was removed, it is now James Marsters know Ive been told about google before but there was that hint from Clifford Chapin but still no proper confimation.

we may not get an ocean dub of a db
product in ever though i do wonder what the ocean actors think of what the characters went through if they have seen super

Brian Drummond`s view on Vegeta attempts on becoming a family man.

Saffron Henderson`s view on Gohan dealing with marriage and fatherhood.

Scott Mcneil`s view on Piccolo dying again.

Peter Kelamis`s view on the return of kaioken.

More importantly what does the ocean cast thought of those super saiyan god super saiyan transformations

It's sad for me not to be able to watch Super currently, because one of my favorite characters is not with the voice that I like and hearing it with another voice does not make me excited to watch in English. :'( (The character is female)

im really looking forward for caitlin and liebrecht in making their debuts in super next week granted vados and champa roles are more glorified cameos in the resurrection f arc but im really looking forward to see the chemistry they have with ian and douglas

So you can hear Zamasu's english voice more clearly here...

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=V0Dt3Kpdgac&feature=youtu.be

And yeah that's definitely Christopher Corey Smith, IMO.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8Eel4ZBhg8 time: 9min15s

So Sabat confirmed that super has a more diverse cast not only did he directed LA talent but some NY talent as well.

You can hear Sean's new Goku Black voice and Zamasu's English voice at 39:20 in this video: https://youtu.be/6ms8LlcpB4E?t=39m20s

we will have to wait till 25th hopefully thats the last from what i heard i think matt is voicing zamasu and maybe replace schemmel as goku black

so the new season starts next week granted it is the resurrection f arc but on the bright side champa and vados appear and i know jason and caitlin will deliver

guys on april 20th we finally know who is zamasu and for those who thought ben diskin was going to voice him in funi dub

https://twitter.com/AzureAceHD/status/851824239107874817

only a few more days and we can remove ben from our suspect list

when funi dubs the dr slump crossover episode they should let brina voice arale again, I found her hilarious as the character in BT3.

I really hope whoever they cast as Zamasu in this dub of Super, really nails the role. Shinichiro Miki set the bar very high for me.

I know the chances of this are less but it would be a fun easter egg if they got yuri lowenthal as barry kahn considering gurren lagann it would be funny that simon went from admiring kamina to being outright jealous.

Apologies if it's been posted elsewhere, but Kaiji Tang mentioned he punched Freeza in the booth last week. Good plan man.

https://twitter.com/KaijiTang/status/844661692336226304

I think Crusher's right that Epcar probably did someone Shisami, Sorbet, or Ginyu. Although I think Hit is still a plausible possibility seeing Hit's aged & deep Japanese portrayal which Epcar'd work very well with. This dub makes decent use of reusals, I think.

Next Week We will find out the va for Zamasu or at the end of april like bandai did with pack 2 dlc or worse april 1st is april fools and bandai lied to us about pack 3.

So, according to the Codec's interview with Richard Epcar, he'll be on this show. I'm wondering if he's in Toonami Asia's or FUNi's dub. I'd be incredibly pleased if he was voicing in either dub, chiefly as Hit (although it's likely neither dub has gotten that far).

In April, we will finally find out who is vocing Zamasu but when u google zamasu voices it says Matt Mercer

To be perfectly honest? I'd prefer someone like Tallesin Jaffe as Zamasu rather than Matt Mercer lmao. Although that's more than likely not happening though.

I find it funny when you google Zamasu voices it says Matt Mercer, still waiting for that future trunks arc or that paxk 3 dlc for XV2

Hey when Lex Lang voices Goku Black, will he sound like dr. doom or dr neo cortex.

I'm not quite sure I'm sold on some of Chris's castings, Jason Liebrecht is a great actor whose Champa lacks the energy I've come to expect from him. He sounds like he's "putting on" a cartoon/creature voice. Caitlin Glass is much more youthful-sounding than I'd expect, although she is certainly a promising choice.

Truthfully I am much more pleased with Turner's castings, a tad unfair comparison seeing they dont have to live up to previous miscastings, but still. One promising prospect for the FUNi dub is James Marsters as Zamasu, that'll be really cool if it pans out. While generally speaking, I feel that FUNi's dubs would be much better if Toei cared about their casting at all (as they did with early parts of One Piece), I think Marsters as Zamasu is pretty inspired & an awesome idea.

Now for Lance Henriksen or Vin Diesel as Hit. :D

Would you believe that this is the only anime AFAIK that crashed the Crunchyroll servers because there were that many people trying to watch it all at once. And this didn't happen just the one time. It happened TWICE. Just goes to show that Dragonball is still very popular. And I don't see it dying down any time soon.

The current french dub version is censored.
Hope the home media release will be uncensored.

Since Funimation Dub episode 7 is airing this weeke, that means only 2 and a half more season left to their version of the future trunks arc, I really want to know who is voicing Zamasu

Is it me or did Chris Sabat change his Vegeta voice a bit? Sometimes it sounds like it did in Kai, BoG, and Resurrection F, sometimes it sounds like his pre-Kai voice, and sometimes it sounds like his pre-Kai voice crossed with his performance from Kai, BoG, and Resurrection F.

gotta say, I am little confused.
thre are two diffrent dubs this time?
of course the cast of either is fine with me, I jsut wonder which one will air.

Interesting that Lex Lang is Goku considering he was Gohan in the game, Dragon Ball GT: Final Bout.

Nice, the Bang Zoom cast has been added. So far, from what I've seen of the dub, it sounds pretty promising. Vegeta's voice however was a little disappointing, but I think Kaiji Tang might grow into the role later on. Erika Harlacher is my favorite perfomance from the Bang Zoom dub so far.

I haven't heard the Bang Zoom dub, but it's really cool to see Wendee Lee back as Bulma. I always thought she was perfect casting.

So the preview at the end of today's episode showed the first female Super Saiyan.

It's Broly.

Broly.

https://youtu.be/8PyU_gJY1VU?t=18s

wat

I think I'm actually more interested in the Bang Zoom dub of Super than the FUNimation dub. No disrespect to FUNi's dub, but for the most part, we've come to expect how the dub will sound like, also we've had a small taste of the Universe 6 characters being dubbed into English.

Also considering it's been several years since a Dragonball product was dubbed in LA, I don't know what to expect. Which makes it that more exciting.

Sooooo... anyone else notice that Laura Bailey was credited as Trunks in Episode 2's dub?

Screencap from credits:
http://i.imgur.com/gxI5xFv.png

Alexis Tipton definitely has one awesome opportunity. Though it will feel weird to see that Laura Bailey isn't voicing Trunks this round. Good to also see the return of many originals like Meredith McCoy and Brad Jackson too.

So Seventeen is coming back for the next arc? This should be interesting.

So, we now have seven VA's that are definitely confirmed for the Toonami Asia dub

Goku – Lex Lang
Goten – Dana Hayes
Beerus – Archie Fletcher
King Kai - Michael McConnohie
Vegeta - Kaiji Tang
Trunks – Haley Lewis
Piccolo – Ray Chase

The one's I'm the most interested in are Nort Kaio, Vegeta & Piccolo. My ideal Piccolo in a LA dub would be Richard Epcar, but I'm curious to see how Ray Chase will pull it off.

I don't know if I'm alone on this, but did anyone think Cynthia Cranz sounded, a tad off as Chi Chi? Usually she sounds a bit more chipper.

I must be in the minority. Didn't think Tipton's Trunks was anything special vs. other boy roles she's voiced in the past. She doesn't makes the dub any better but even if she was terrible it wouldn't matter much since everyone else sounds great so I can't really complain. Hope Funimation organizes episode count for the DVD/Blu-ray sets so if fans want to skip the Battle of Gods & Resurrection F arcs (which I think most would agree the movies did better even w/ less time) they can buy the sets that have actual new content (Universe 6 onwards) without any carry over

Congratulations Alexis Tipton, after the first episode, she certainly has already proved that will be a great replacement of Laura Bailey.

I got round to watching the dub of Super. Pretty top notch as to be expected seeing as the whole voice cast is way more experienced in their roles, just like the dub of Kai.

Speaking of Alexis Tipton, she does a very good impression of Laura Bailey as Trunks. When she speaks normally it's hard to tell the difference between the two. But when Trunks has to raise his voice or yell, I can notice it straight away. I'd rank her second place among the Kid Trunks VA's in the English dubs.

Alexis has taken over another role of Laura Bailey in the Dragonball series, but I'll go into detail on that, on the appropriate page.

Watched the first episode of Super and I have to say that Alexis Tipton really performed awesome as Trunks. You'd imagine that Trunks will sound differently since Alexis took over from Laura, but it's cool to know that the consistency hasn't altered in the slightest. WELL DONE!

After episode one, Oh my goodness I love Alexis Tipton as Trunks. Maybe I'm just biased but I thought it was fantastic.

Apparently Chris Sabat has already cast someone for Zamasu. Though we'll probably get a taste of it in Xenoverse 2. Whether he'll top Shinichiro Miki in this role, we'll just have to wait & see. Miki set the bar pretty high, & the part where he yelled "SON GOKU" actually sent chills down my spine.

I hope Jad Saxton to be the voice of Vados, I'm sure she would be perfect.

I hope they somehow get Johnny Yong Bosch as Copy Vegeta in FUNimation's dub of Super. That way both actors for Ichigo end up sharing another role with each other.

From a FUNimation dub clip I just saw...Schemmel's Goku is excellent, but his King Kai is still "ugh" for me.

You know, I hear a lot of praise for this show's opening on Twitter & Kanzenshuu. Having started this show a few days ago, I can see why. It is *so* hype for Dragon Ball, probably a big factor being that it's a show developed in the mid-2010s & not a product of the 80s/early 90s as the canon material has been for ages.

Dragonball Super's FUNi dub will be airing in January. They're skipping Buu Saga Kai for the first 26 episodes of Super. Which as we know is just the first two movies adapted into anime form. While I like that it explored a little more in Super, at the same time I think it's completely pointless to watch if you've already seen Battle Of Gods & Ressurection of Frieza.

You know, i'm glad that Doc Morgan returns as the Narrator.

For the voice actor of Zamasu (Present, Future, Fused), i can actually see how Garret Storms would pull it off, that or Scott Zenreich.

We might hear Laura Bailey reprise (kid) Trunks for the Bang Zoom! Toonami Asia dub... Still it is sad to miss her in Funi's dub.

At least Meredith McCoy is a bit active again with all the new Dragon Ball stuff that has come out in the last few years. No more Colleen as 18~!

Now that I think about it, the fact that Laura Bailey is in another big AAA game, it makes perfect sense as to why she wasn't able to reprise Trunks this time around. It would have clashed. I dunno if it was the same with the Buu Saga dub of Kai(which we have yet to see) Though that was probably finished alot earlier than people might think.

While Laura Bailey is great, I feel like I'm the only one who actually prefers Alexis Tipton. I'm sure that she'll do great as Kid Trunks.

Android 18 with Meredith, this gave me anger. I'm a big fan of Colleen and I still prefer she in the voice of 18, it made me very sad. I'm sad because Laura Bailey does not return, I love your voice , but she has several jobs in California, we have to understand her reasons. I'm a fan of Alexis Tipton and I'm sure she'll do a great job, Laura herself said she trusts Alexis' work.

So nice to hear them again.

Shame Laura won't be Trunks anymore, wonder if she at least still voices him in the Buu Saga of Kai (whenever that gets released)

Wouldn't consider myself a fan of Alexis Tipton but I kind of feel sorry for her that a lot of people only see her as a lesser Laura Bailey or 'ideal' voice match when the latter isn't available. Micah Solusod has (and still kind of is) perceived as a lesser Johnny Yong Bosch; those labels can be hard to shed and I'm sure those VAs would like to be seen and recognized for their own efforts than always be compared.

Honestly I kind of wish Sabat had cast someone newer. Matching or surpassing Laura isn't going to happen but had he cast someone new at least it would've boosted their career and as a newbie may at least get some leeway from harsher critics than a 'veteran' would.

Jeannie Tirado sounds more like Laura than Alexis does and IMHO already is more talented than Alexis who's already hit her limited ceiling. Shoulda, coulda, woulda...

I know it may seem like a huge bummer that Laura isn't reprising Trunks, but Chris Sabat explained on twitter that the reason why she couldn't is because she's extremely busy in LA right now. She's doing a bunch of stuff on Geek and Sundry, she's participating in the SAG AFTRA voice actor's strike, she's still auditioning for many forms of media, etc. Not to mention the show was being cast during the fall season, Fall leaning into the holiday season is the busiest time of the year for everybody, including voice actors, so she wouldn't have enough time to go to Texas to record for DBS. Then there's also factions due to her being part of SAG AFTRA, Texas is a right to work state and she's in the union, while she could audition for DB, there's a lot of red tape in her contract that prevents her from working at Funi at the same rate as Texas-based voice actors. However, there's also more of a chance you would find her in an anime that was backed by the union since she is the lead in the smile precure dub and that dub's recording was backed by the SAG AFTRA union. So considering everything that has been happening in Cali right now, let's give Alexis a chance, she's not an amateur actress and has been with funimation for a long time.

Kinda sucks that Laura Bailey won't be reprising her role. Sure we have Alexis Tipton filling in but it just won't sound the same :(

Not having Laura Bailey back is kind of a bummer. Makes sense though, a one time recording for Xenoverse is much less time consuming than a full series like this. Glad to have Doc Morgan back though, he's my favorite DB narrator, tied with Brice Armstrong.

Many will probably disagree but I am glad Doc Morgan is doing narration again instead of Hebert, had that Brice Armstrong quality that I adore (helps that I prefer the original to Z).

The lack of Laura Bailey is mildly disappointing but as proven multiple times Tipton can voice match Bailey excellently so it's not a huge loss. In short, still hyped (though not so much for the movie rehashing...)

Well it's official that Laura Bailey won't reprise Kid Trunks. But I'm positive Alexis Tipton will ace it!

Super started off great, with a really lighthearted yet funny atmosphere, and as Shaun Ince said, it came off as more like Dragonball at the start, then it hit its low point IMO so far with the rehashing of the events of Battle of Gods (though even then, there's some really funny moments, notably anything involving Vegeta), and as of late we got a great arc with Future Trunks and Black Goku that's recaptured my interest again in the Series, though it's more akin to Dragonball Z now- it seems to be picking up on the slack, though, and I'm glad about that much.

There's been some infamous QUALITY animation in it, though, but at least it was good for a laugh, if nothing else.

Please oh please! I hope Laura Bailey can swing by Dallas to record the lines for Kid Trunks!

Well we finally have a release date for the Toonami Asia dub. January 2017. As for the voice for Mr Satan it's Jamieson Price, most definitely. Not sure who's voicing Buu though.

So many new characters! It'll be interesting to see who Chris Sabat casts. Will he stick to the Texan pool, or will he go diverse to to get LA Actors as well? Can't wait!

Fingers crossed they got Laura Bailey back as Trunks. If not, I think Jill Harris can sound very similar to Laura's young boy voice. Alexis Tipton can also do a good job in that department as shown with her playing Platinum (in particular the boy personality) in the Blazblue dub.
