Yu-Gi-Oh is the only one I thought was okay at some points. But the others are crap... ><'''

How bout none!!! 4kids butchers animes with a passion!!!!!!! I won't even watch the dubbed version of YGO is sucks so bad. Dan Green does a good job though

Dan Green has a sexy voice...

*cough*

Anyway, I don't think I can even think of one dub that 4Kids has done well. You might think Yugioh is well done. I think it's okay because I really loved the show. That was, until I saw a video on YouTube which compared the dub to the original. I was totally outraged. Screw 4Kids.

I prefer FUNimation over 4Kids. >]

They omit stuff like guns and replace them with hands
perhaps this will tell you how much they butchered it!!!!
I hated it!! I bought the subbed and watched it.. Loved it and then saw the 4kids version I was morbidly disappointed!!!

That's the video I saw! That one and a few others. I saw one also for Yugioh GX (even though I don't watch it) just out of curiosity.

It was bad, and I mean really bad. You should really watch that. You'll be wishing you could kick those people's asses. Trust me, I did. lol

I wonder what the series would be like if VIZ did it????
FUNimation is linked up with 4kids though or it could be worse... It could've been dubbed by Nelvana(the same people that did sailor moon I believe)

That's true. But FUNimation isn't as bad as 4Kids. I think their dub for DBZ was awesome. It could be better, but I'd prefer their work over 4Kids.

As for the company that did Sailor Moon, I think they should rot in anime hell. They totally butchered SM mercilessly. The voice overs are so annoying. O_o Though I didn't mind when I was a little girl, I really do mind nowadays.

FUNimation didn't do DBZ I Toi happy cat did. They are a canadian company like Viz based in Vancouver why do you think Kiby Morrow was able to fo bot Miroku and Goku as well as Brenna O'brien(she plays the voice of Pan)

Actually, it is FUNimation. The dub in Canda and the US are different. In the American dub of DBZ, Kirby Morrow doesn't do the voice of Goku.

Goku's official American voice actor is Sean Schemmel. I personally think he did a fantastic job as Goku, compared to the other guys that have done Goku's voice overs.

But I really wonder if the American version and Candian version of DBZ are different. Do know of any sites where I can watch the Candian version?

well if the dubbed it anything like YGO then yes the Canadian version blows them out of the water. I actually didn't know that

Yeah, neither did I until I saw a video on YouTube and someone mentioned it. But even though FUNimation and 4Kids are kind of connected, FUNimation did a fantastic job on DBZ. Or at least I think so.

If 4Kids had done DBZ, I don't think it wouldn't been as much of a hit among, not only children, but teens as well. It would be horrible to have 4Kids butcher it. =(

After Yugioh, I don't prefer to watch anything 4Kids works on.

Sorry I was thinking of Ocean Group that was the name of it

-Bumped-

Actually, there was a 4Kids dub that I was impressed with. It was their version of the First pokemon movie. Then english dub had way better effects and dialog whereas the original one was way more confusing. This was actually the only dubbed version of the move that had better edits. Hell; they didn't even remove anything they found' offensive'; they just added in more things.

4Kids did an awesome Job with Pokemon imo.

And for the differences of Funi and the Ocean group just Youtube " Comaprsion of Dragonball Z Funimation Dub and Ocean Dub" or something like that.

That's because there really wasn't anything offensive in that movie. Not that I could pinpoint anyways. It had good morals in it though
