Oh wow are Toei really that bad. Can they even afford to be such jerks, it's not like they have a lot of properties do they. Such a shame.

They're worse.

But here is what I was talking about anyway.

Christ the actual voice actors for the show are awful compared to dbz abridged. Teamfourstar's goku IS goku, there's no 2 ways about it. Hearing that krillin is literally cringe inducing over the adorably sympathetic tfs krillin.

It's nice that at least Funimation recognize the impact that tfs has had. I'm not even bothered by Toei; it's quite obvious that this is a case of them being incredibly insecure because teamfourstar made a better show than what they have. It reeks of that in fact.

TFS actually get on well with Funimation and the voice actors. They even have Sabat doing some cameo VA work for them (allegedly, definitely not really of course) and he was likely the one to bring them in. They've done work on the games as well, so this is just Toei being bent out of shape rather than embracing a group that brings more people into the fandom and then more money to them for some asinine reason.

That actually is encouraging to hear that they have such an amicable relationship. I guess it's just that damn Toei which is unfortunate because they probably have final say in everything.

They are also moving into official dubbing and can't do that so easily when fending off continued attacks from Toei.

I think they should be the actual voices for dbz from now on

They technically did briefly.

They had voiced the "cell games movie" in the buu saga, but Toei forced Funimation to cut it. Can still find the clip online though.

In fairness to Toei I can see their point

Give them an inch and they take a foot. If Toei as a company say "It's okay for these guys to make money off our work and product" Then that opens a floodgates for everyone else.

Same reason all those WoW Servers got taken down and everyone got mad

Teamfourstar made a better product than Toei ever could so for that reason alone they should acknowledge them. It would be another thing if it was one of those numerous unfunny parodies spread throughout youtube of different animes and shows. But tfs made something special. In fact at some point it stopped being just a straight up parody and more like an actual dubbing of the show that's a little more humorous. But the terrifying moments or the really badass moments, they don't take away from it. They show how much they know and respect the show.

Wait what? I think there has been a misunderstanding here. You may have meant "this is a pretty great thing"

This. I love DBZA but the continued disrespect you're showing to the original dub is garbage and quite frankly wrong.

Oh is that who posted I had him on ignore. Anyway I still can't tell if you're being serious regarding *snickers* dbz dubbing
