Very Scary Stats

It is really hard but I must say there ARE some really good Dragonball Z videos out there if your willing to look, because 90-95% of them are crap... and 90% of 2189 (The number if you add all the DBZ catagories from the Most Used Anime list together... and granted, there's a HELL of alot more then that since DBZ has so many catagories dedicated to it) is still 196 videos, which is alot. In other words, it takes alot of wading and searching for GOOD DBZ videos... I have a couple on my comp which are pretty decent, and some actually serve a POINT... I got a couple of DBZ ideas myself that I hope'll take off once I get around to making them. (It's in my personal belief that DBZ is over rated by the general community and under rated by the true Anime fan community... but that's just me)

Well I honestly dont have the patience or will to dig up a good DBZ vid
because I dont even like DBZ, so I'd rather watch CB or NGE. Call me Otaku or elitist or whatever, but I just dont find it entertaining.

Many people have that attitude about it, and there's nothing wrong with that. I don't think it's great by any stretch of the imagination, but I'll watch it just for the entertainment value. If you don't try to take it seriously, it can be pretty fun to watch. I used to see it on Cartoon Network whenever I could, but now I work until the evenings, so that's not possible. I've been watching a lot of stuff on Adult Swim, though. Lupin III, Inu Yasha, and Yu Yu Hakusho rule my nights. I've already seen all of Bebop, so it's not as important to see it again, especially dubbed (not that the English version is bad, just...different). This is my first time catching Yu Yu Hakusho and Inu Yasha, though I know they've been around for a while. Pretty enjoyable stuff.

I dont think they could have found a worse voice for Spike. The only
english vocal cast I enjoy is Evangelion, even if Asuka sounds like she's 35.

ADV has some pretty decent voice actors for their series lately. It's a treat to hear Ilpalazzo's English voice actor spout Spanish and use the phrase: "I am coquettish."

ADV and Good Voices do not go in the same sentence... sorry, I own ton of ADV DVDs and I can't think of a single one that has a good dubbing... Mainly Shin Kimagure Orange Road and the Samurai X/Rurouni Kenshin OVAs which are horrible (with the exception of Kenshin's voice I suppose)... The only 2 animes I can think of off the top of my head which the acting was awesome to me are Fatal Fury (They even gave the right characters the right accents... I was shocked) and Cowboy Bebop (What's wrong with Spike's voice on that show...? Hm... oh well, difference of opinion.)

Yeah, Spike's voice is horrible. But I find that most of the incidental voices
are done very well, like Annie in Session 5.

Hmm... who thinks I should make a video with Linkin Park footage to "Chop Suey" by SOAD? I'll call it When Linkin Park Deserves to Die! Nyahaha!

That would be...trippy, for a lack of a better word

That would be a disrespect to System of a Down.
