You're from England right? Isn't DBGT dubbed by Blue Water Studios? That would explain the lame dubbing.

It's not like the VAs from Blue Water suck at dubbing. The way they convey their voices is so bland and very dull; they seem like they're faking their voices. From what I heard, they SERIOUSLY made Ayashi no Ceres very unemotional where as the original Japanese VAs did a very good job conveying their emotions (especially Junko Iwao :P ).

She also does Inuyasha's voice, so I can't really complain :shrug:

I have no real complaints about a dub on the whole that haven't been mentioned, so I'll say a few specific character voices.

Tsukasa (.hack//SIGN). Jim Hawkings he really isn't, but to be fair, the VA got into the voice after the first couple episodes.

Mimuri (.hacK) - not bad, but she does sound older than she's supposed to be.

Chidore Kaname (Full Metal Panic) - Honestly, she sounds like a guy trying to do a girl's voice.

Alex Rowe (Last EXILE) - I usually like Crispin Freeman's work, but I don't think the voice he's using (by the 4th episode) fits the character. He just doesn't sound like a man with a deathwish. (I admit I watched the whole show fansubbed)
