what do you think about the character's voices
i think they have some good voices and some bad ones, like temari
and orochimaru

KageNaruto
05-10-2006, 02:58 AM
i think tenten has the best voice in the series....

this is also creepy they just added 3 new sections....kinda freaky

Masah
05-10-2006, 02:59 AM
Most of the voices I like, but, unfortunately I don't care for some like Kankuro, just because it's so different! I'm not implying he's a bad voice actor at all, I guess it'll take some getting use to

Drunken_Master_Rock_Lee
05-10-2006, 02:59 AM
indeed, a lot freaky, and simply no voice is good!

no, tenten's dub is really really good in my opinion. sad that such a minor character has such a good voice but hey she deserves it.

i wanna see more tenten!

*hugs tenten plushie*

Lol, thats one of the less seen caracter! While we will ear Naruto's gay and scratchy voice each and every ep!

05-10-2006, 03:05 AM
i want to hear jiraiya's voice, probably gonna be some drunk
and tsunade will be pamela anderson lol
and hopefuly shizune will have a sexay voice

Masah
05-10-2006, 03:05 AM
Yeah I just added these new sections, the forum is dying a slow painful death, so I decided, "hey, why not add a dubbed section? Let's invite over the dubbed fans", anyway, I think the girl who did Hakus' voice is incredible, and I also like Lees, I was really impressed.

Drunken_Master_Rock_Lee
05-10-2006, 03:07 AM
Oh my damn! I though Lee had the worst, he really sound gay, he has a low and passive voice while he got an energetic voice in the subs. I really hate his voice in the dubs.

Masah
05-10-2006, 03:09 AM
Haha, be a little more optimistic dude, is it really that big of a difference? I think that Lees' VO work was fantastic!

wow.... an admin with 34 posts..... okies


anyway i hated itachi's voice, gah! bleck!
i also dont like shika's voice its just blegh...

and chouji...barf, hate it

Drunken_Master_Rock_Lee
05-10-2006, 03:14 AM
Lol, he aint any admin dude, its Zafar. But yes chouji and shika are pretty ugly when it comes to voices too.

05-10-2006, 03:18 AM
anyways back on topic
i think they got some pretty good voices for a japanese anime czu there are so many characters in naruto and it's pretty hard to get some dubbers

Drunken_Master_Rock_Lee
05-10-2006, 03:19 AM
ah ok then, i think it was a good initiative to make those new sections.

imported_Greenlitflag
05-10-2006, 03:40 AM
The only voices I don't really like are Choji, konohamaru, and Itachi. At first I disliked Lee's voice (and still do slightly) but it actually kinda fits him (sounding kinda determined/naive/eager.) At first I disliked naruto's but I think she is getting better at not only acting but saying things in a "naruto" fashion. Dosu is good. Oro is pretty good. Ummm, sakura is pretty good (she sounds like... well an annoying 12/13 year old girl in america, which is basicly how she actually is.) The guy who does Shika is doing a pretty good job at maintaing his sub character (he sounds kinda lazy and like everything is just "troublesome".) Gaara is one of the best from what I've heard so far. Gai's VA is good for the comedy parts but needs to lighten up his "goofiness" when he's doing serious stuff.

05-10-2006, 03:53 AM
I think the only good ones were ten ten, rock lee and there are some othere okay ones

Canthinkofaname
05-10-2006, 12:04 PM
i hated choujis shikas and oros and itachis, and in the sub it was mso freaky how konohamaru sounded in ep 79 when he says hes going to the bathroom

CRtwenty
05-10-2006, 04:06 PM
Wait... they haven't dubbed up to that far... how did you hear his voice in that scene?

Masah
05-10-2006, 04:07 PM
Umm he said in the SUB. :-P

CRtwenty
05-10-2006, 04:08 PM
Oh... but why is he talking about the sub on the dubbed forum?

Masah
05-10-2006, 04:10 PM
I dunno, I think he was just comparing it hwo cool it was in episode 79 to how bad it might be in the states? Just a guess =/

05-11-2006, 02:42 AM
Wouldn't it be nice if the original Voice Actors also did the work for the english dubs... although it would get kind of awkward...

I started out watching the dubs, but then one week they DIDN"T AIR AN EPISODE (>:O!) so I came here and DL'd all the wappanese episodes so it's all good :p

but yeah, even having started out on the dubs and then going to japanese... I can't think of a single character that sounds... 'right'

Masah
05-11-2006, 02:44 AM
Japanese voice actors speaking english? Haha, that'd sound really weird dude...

AK47
05-11-2006, 02:45 AM
i don't like them too but it's probably because i watched the jap and i prefer the jap voices more, but i think they are not that bad, but i can do better (JK)

DB)Diablo
05-11-2006, 02:47 AM
I can replicate a voice perfectly after about a week of practice...

I'LL TAKE THE CASE!

Ok maybe not, having to do a week's practice just to speak one line for a character XD

CRtwenty
05-11-2006, 08:44 AM
Truth be told... the voices would be terrible if they had the original VAs speaking English. I've heard JP VAs try to speak English before (Mahou Sensei Negima comes to mind) and it just sounds horrible...

Leave the English to the English speaking VAs, and the Japanese to the Japanese VAs please.

Drunken_Master_Rock_Lee
05-11-2006, 10:00 AM
And you sure the JP VAs in english or worst then the normal dubs voice, it sound kinda impossible to me.

05-13-2006, 07:48 PM
I think some of the VA's are ok, but I also think some need to go back to school. When you can hear the actor TRYING to make an emotion, they have failed. Some of it is very good, but sometimes its painful to listen to. It has improved greatly since the beginning however.

Man, I love the dub haters, I love how negatively some of you look at the series. "OH MY GOD! HE DIDN'T NAIL THE VOICE JUST PERFECTLY! OH MY GOD, HE DIDN'T TRILL THE R ON NARUTO!!!" C'mon, we're not japanese(for the most of us), and I think the dub is great, they keep the script as original as possible, they have fresh, original voices, and they're making uncut DVDs THIS year, and they're selling them dirt cheap, why complain?

Kuroda
06-11-2006, 10:17 PM
definately Gai. his is hilarious.

Darknesswithin
06-14-2006, 04:45 PM
To me the voices all sound pretty much the same. I don't like Sasuke's english voice though :x , I also hate Naruto's voice. I like Orochimaru's voice, except when he's dressed as a girl in the beginning.

KageNaruto
06-14-2006, 05:09 PM
i dont like oro's voice. hes trying to do the hissing-drawing out last few word in sentence stereotyped evil effect.

dont like his voice at all for some wierd reason

Darknesswithin
06-14-2006, 07:04 PM
i haven't noticed the hissing stuff,kagenaruto, guess i don't really pay attention lol. Not to mention i haven't seen naruto on toonami for a while.

06-14-2006, 07:28 PM

heh i so could^^. im just saying i dont like the "evil stereotyped" approach they took with oro. i have a right not to like voices in a series.

I understand that dude, but if you look at it from a different prospective it could be SO much worse, they're at least ATTEMPTING to portray the voices the best they can, and their reason for doing that is obvious, sharing the wonderful world of Naruto to a new crowd, now I know some people will be "Man, look at this, it's gotten so overrated!" but more popularity comes more games, more art, more naruto in general. :P

06-18-2006, 02:52 AM
Well, I just saw for the first time a surfer in a fur coat... Seriously why'd they make Kiba into a surfer? I mean I know of the voice actor and he's great, but what inspired that voice for Kiba? And why did they need to change Akamaru's voice? He only speaks once, at least as a pup and that was for the new years special.

Sigh, I like more of the normal voices such as Sasuke, Sakura, Ino, Neji, Lee ect... But Chouji's and Shika's are weird to me.

(Yes I just now watched episode 34 dubbed which is great for hearing all the voices.)

KageNaruto
06-18-2006, 06:06 AM

I don't know if this has been said already but Oro's voice sounds like Micheal Jackson.

Hiyo
07-08-2006, 12:52 AM
Sakura/Sasuke are okay. Narutos is okay. I don't like Orochimarus at all. Kagenaruto is right... he is too typical of a bad guy with that voice. The thing I like about the jap voice is that it's kinda weird... and graspy... and creepy. This voice just makes him sound like every other typical masculine enemy. I don't like Neji voice either. Doesn't suit him. And Lees isn't that great either. It's not the acting... its just the sound of the voices... they just don't fit but what can you do I guess. The series still works well anyways. I watched DBZ all dubbed and loved it so I'm sure first time Naruto watchers will love the American voices too.

Prediction: Drunken Lee episode is going to be sooooooooooo stupid with that voice.

Well after watching all these dubs and never being satisfied with Naruto's voice, there's been a breakthrough! His last line of episode 44 is EXACTLY how he should sound all the time. It's the same sound, yes, but it's not screechy and annoying.

woot hiyo and me have almost the exact same opinions. i however heard neji's voice from a clip of the ps2 game in english and it actually sounds quite good, we'll see how he sounds when he fights hainta, or naruto. if he doesent sound good by then, meh, but so far he had very little ttalking time

who else agrees that tenten's voice rules all the other character's voices!

Nova
07-30-2006, 10:24 PM
I actually like the way Kankuro's voice is turning out. I think my least favorite is Shino's.....he's not supposed to be Konoha's L33T Haxor....He sounds way to nerdy. His voice should be dark and mysterious, even more so than Sasuke's. And Kiba's voice is pretty well done, it's got a little doggishness to it, and being done by Kyle Hebert is even better, I mean it's Gohan come on, though I woulda picked him for Naruto. But so far I would say I like Kakashi's, Kankuro's, Gaara's, and I gotta say this....I do like Oro's voice actor.....those are my favorite. Though I have to give credit to the ppl doing Naruto and Sasuke, they are getting the concept of the characters and beginning to do them exceedingly well.

you cant say you hate all the voices if you've only heard like 5 of them, and yeah compared to the japanese the dubbed aint good but come on, ever heard a dub that were 100% what you wanted eh? original is always best, almost atleast

anyways zabuza´s voice were kinda okay! ;)

I've seen only one episode dubbed so doesn't say much but Kakashi's voice got to me. Kakashi is laid back but assured as well and the voice did not give me any assurance to how confident he really is.

Ryko
08-22-2006, 07:40 AM
hmm. Kakashi's voice doesn't sound as slack and cool as the japanese one, and I am also a bit dissapointed in Gaara's voice, but I guess that's only cause I am a Gaara fan and his japanese voice is as good as it can get. But found some other clips which were dubbed, and I gotta say. I like these voices way better, ESPECIALLY Lee and Gai sensei's:

The first season was horribly dubbed, true. But as much as I never thought I'd say this, the dub is actually good now. The new episode where Lee loses to Gaara, everyones voices were good. Naruto actually showed strong emotion, as did everyone else. Only downfall is that Neji's VA still sucks.

well i think that the Dub has compleately been a major flop and is a total waste of time to tell you the truth.

people say that its good after a while but the dub has been sucked from its origonal storyline to make it a little for child friendly (and by that i mean so a younger audience can watch it) but i think if something is made the its origonal dialoge should be kept, why do americans have to spoil everything in the anime world why why why??? it drives me insane keep it as it is, ok sometimes people want to watch something in there language but its just wrong to chage the origonal format.

i also hate the fact that they deleted some really great scenes in the dub, sometimes stories dont make sense anyway.... hehe

Raki
11-29-2006, 08:06 PM
that why they should just use the freakin anime sub titles instead of spending more money translating them dammit....its even worst I'd rather read the sub titles than hear the crappy voices

Naruto's voice makes me want to /wrist IRL. It's just that bad. So is Neji's. Their voices just don't fit the character.

I also wish they would keep the japanese Opening and Ending songs/video

GreenTeaHyuuga
12-18-2006, 02:32 PM
I like most of the Japanese voices way more than the English ones. Well...from what I've heard so far. I only have the first uncut box set. -_- I really wanna hear Neji's Japanese voice and see what I think about it.

Hmm...anyway, the only Japanese voice that I hate right now is Zabuza's. His English one is sooooo much better. And Shikamaru's isn't that good either...it's too deep.

And the main English one I despise is Naruto's. *cringes* His dubbed voice makes me flinch. It's so annoying. I squeaked when I heard his Japanese one because it was so cute! XD I was like "OMG! HIS VOICE DOESN'T SUCK YAY!!!" His Japanese voice is halping me regain a little more of my respect for him back...I kinda lost all respect for his gaytard butt when he unfairly "beat" Kiba in the preliminaries, kept screaming at Hinata to keep fighting when she was ten minutes away from death (he might as well have just said "KILL HER, NEJI!! KILL HER!!" -_-), and then stole all Lee-chan's dreams of beating Neji from him. And his little buttnugget "BELIEVE IT!!111" doesn't help either.

Anyway, sorry for my ranting. ^_^; Back to voices.
I can't decide which of Konohamaru's voices I like best. They're both really cute. ^^ A lot of the characters' voices, I like both of them, just the Japanese a little more.

Yeah...that's basically it. KibaHina forever! *waves*

Naruto's voice makes me want to /wrist IRL. It's just that bad. So is Neji's. Their voices just don't fit the character.

I also wish they would keep the japanese Opening and Ending songs/video
Aww, I love Neji's English voice! It's so cute. I agree with you on Naruto's, though. But Neji's is cute. He sounds like a superhero. XD Oh, and I totally agree with you on the Openings/Endings thing. *nodnod*

I don't like English voices in most shows. Dubbed I mean. They always make the characters, who are supposed to be 12, either sound like 30yr olds, or 4yr olds. And KAKASHI'S Dubbed voice is the worst to me. He sounds like an ass! He reads a dirty novel, he shouldn't sound that serious!!

Naruto's voice does fit his character... You've got to remember his character is suppose to be annoying. Question is, is it really a good idea to make an annoying character like him the main character? The answer is no, it's not. However during the first season he is annoying. And we dealt with it without much complaint because we had nothing to compare him to. With the second season, even the japanese voice acting became better and Naruto became less annoying. Low and behold, the english dub is getting better aswell. Seriously, go back and watch the japanese first season. It seems a little more annoying, and my thoughts towards this are if I were bilingual to the extent where Japanese was a second language to me, then I would probably find Naruto's voice just as annoying as we do in the english version. I think the language gap hides the voice actor's overtones.

However I do agree that alot of the VAs in the english version is just, gah. I like Lee's voice. Yeah it's not the same as the japanese, but it works. As said before Tenten's sounds the most natural and matches her personality and that of the Japanese VA's. Kiba sounds like a surfer in a furcoat, and this voice would easily conflict with his character later on aswell. Neji is off, Sasuke sounds cool... I mean not in a good way. I mean in a non emo-kid way. Which just sucks. In a good way. Sakura, eh sure why not. Ino's is good. Shika sounds just as evil as Gaara. Chouji sounds like an otaku. Shino sounds like he is a bug. Hinata sounds good I suppose. I mean I think she's voiced by the girl who did Shinobu in Love Hina.

However Kurenai's voice is amazing. And again this is because of an amazing voice actress they shelled out money for when in the end Kurenai has all of seventeen minutes of screentime.

Unfortunately I watched the Japanese version before watching cartoon network. Naruto on cartoon network sucks!! The voices are aweful. Honestly it sounds like they hired one teenage boy to do the younger male and female characters and two older dudes to do all of the other characters.

It reminds me of the DragonBallz season with the Ginu Force, lousy voice production. They have a great anime series and need to spend more time delivering a quality production.

if you watch 1 episode itll "suck" cause you cant get over the jap-english factor. and which episode? they imrpoved from the older ones.

not to mention if you ever just listen to the adio of naruto from the early eps, its not as good as you think, or even the later eps for that.

the dub isnt exeptional, but its OK

Wow, this is the first time I've watched the dubbed version since the first few episodes came out, and I have to say, all of their voices sound really screwy (especially Gamakichi and Gamabunta).

I think one of the better dubbed voices was for Gaara (it sounded like he was depressed and tormented)

Worst one: Jirayia... he sounds like a moron in english, but in the subbed his voice is perfectly matching his appearance.

That's exactly what happened to me. The weird thing is, I didn't notice a difference when I went from dub to Jap, but when going back from Jap to dub, there was a definite difference.

If I cared enough, I'd sig this for epic levels of not making sense. Most of the time we see him, especially so far, he IS being a moron, a pure comedic figure. Most of the voices are alright, and a few can be accused of following the source material TOO closely. Kankurou for one, sounds different, but I think he's one of the better voices since they adopted the english "version" of Kankurou's attitude to his dubbed counterpart.

Of the few that are closest to the original and pretty well in character, Lee and Gai are near the top of the list. Just spot on, allowing for awkward sentence structure at times due to the fact that, well, some things just take a really long time for other languages to say.

Yeah, like this one sentence thing in english, took one word in japanese. Then there was this one sentence english thing again but took an age to say in japanese. Also, if you take spanish, the phrase for "I like the clothestore" becomes "(A mi) me gusta la tienda de ropa." Its simply grammar concepts and actual words that change the length.

They only thing that sucks is that they use people that have a terrible voice for minor characters or that we have only seen once in for like a second.

I like all the english VA's except Naruto's I dunno I mean its gotten better over the eps but I still cant get used to it Maile < Junko. Im getting more and more used to it so Im beginning to accept it more and more like this most recent ep that aired which was "Three-Way Deadlock Battle Deadlock! Tsunade & Jiraiya vs. Orochimaru!!" I was quite impressed with, they did well with it. But after watching the subtitled for so long, I still cant get used to Naruto's scratchy off-pitched voice, I still prefer Junko-chan :)

That's the opposite for me, I watch the dubbed version all the way to like 50 then I started with subbed. Then after seeing eposide 70 dubbed I relized how good it was and watch every dubbed eposide to date. I thought since I seen it already it sucked but it was better then I thought.

Yes, I know, they took that woman as a voice actor because Oro's first appearance in the series was disguised as a woman, but couldn't they just hire another actor after that? One of the coolest characters now has the most unfitting voice in the whole series. This sucks.

Say what? The voices are all greatly chosen, Temari has that firm voice that makes you know she'd be the BOSS in a relationship. Orochimaru has that freaky molester voice that let you know he loves his experimentations on humans.

naruto's voice is a little too "whiney", tone down on that and it would be perfect

Orochimaru's voice is just missing something.. I don't know how to describe it.

also, why is it that every dub I've ever seen can never get the VA's to pronounce names correctly?
