I like the song! However, I want to know why on earth they felt the need to give the guys surfer accents. That was just...weird.

His and Her Circumstances also has a pretty bad dub. Arima sounded so blah, and Yukino's voice made me wince when I first heard it.

Love Hina is definitely the worst dub ever. It makes everyone sound horribly generic instead of comedic/dramatic.

Another botch was the X movie, but I saw the dub first and absolutely hated it... then actually understood wtf the people were talking about when I saw it subtitled.

I wasn't terribly impressed with the Arjuna dub either, but I can't flame it since I only watched the first DVD dubbed... but that was enough to annoy the piss out of me... and I ussually like most of the people in that cast, they just didn't do it for me there.

That's actually one of the few shows I prefer dubbed over the original... then again, I can only judge based on the movie as I have yet to rewatch the show in jap.

There were definitely some botched lines in the show, but I'd been familiar with that cast thanks to things like Ranma and Beast Wars, so I dug it thoroughly.

so just to switch subject, name an anime that is nicely dubbed.

That's not a wise idea, you should make a new thread.

To humor you though: Cowboy Bebop, RahXephon (close to sub quality), Witch Hunter Robin (I guess, seemed to work), Big O (David Lucas owns).
