While they may be somewhat exaggerated to sound like super happy 14 year olds, they hardly sound like 300 pound 40 year olds, in fact I wonder how you could even think of such a comparison. :?

Oh, and Bantaro rocks.

Possibly the best japanese cast ever makes Love Hina's dub look much worse than it already is. But even if the sub was ordinary, the dub would still be a top 5 worst. The squeeky, "fast food kid from the simpsons" style voice for Keitaro is a huge mistake, we're supposed to love this guy, not be horribly annoyed by him. Naru has the same voice actress as the aforementioned Kaoru and Meryl Stryfe, and she doesnt fit the idol-like Naru. Motoko is the only decent voice, but she sounds to gruff and old to be a convincing 15 year old. You would think giving Kitsune a southern accent would make her even more insanely sexy but somehow it backfires (go figure, a southern accent in Japan might seem out of place ;P). I love this anime, its a top anime in the echi romantic comedy dept, (just behind the immortal Ranma 1/2), but please, stick to the sub.
Sometimes I think you guys bash the LH dub to much. Oh, and I gotta say I disagree with you about Motoko, i actually liked her voice the least. She sounds like Poco from Arc the Lad o.O

Ah, well, thinking of such a comparison really isn't that hard. Sure to some it may be slightly exagerrated, but come on! Jubei has a voice that completely doesn't match her character in any way, shape, or form.

And yes, Bantaro does rock.
