To be honest I think they did great in every one of their anime series that Ive watched.

I was especially impressed with Dragonball/Z/GT and One Piece though, it retained all the wit and charm of the original Japanese series :P

I really love the way they did Fruits Basket. It's not just that the dubbing is great it's also the dialog. It was a great one for them.

I have to say it's good to see One piece in the hands of a company that actually knows how to treat it, and I agree Funi does do a great job with their dubbing. I especially like FMA, and Yuu yuu Hakusho.

I'd have to say off the top of my head, the best job they did in a show would be Moonphase, Case Closed, and Gunslinger Girl. But everything they do seems to be great quility. DBZ isn't as bad as people make it out to be, the dubs not crazy or bad or anything. I must say, I have never been disapointed by Funimation. I just wish they'd give us some more "extras" on the dvd's. That's something they "forget" to do, but I don't mind that too much.

I can't wait until Funimation dubs Ouran High School Host Club! I hope that Vic Mignonga gets the part of Tamaki, he would be so funny =D

I am very happy that they took One Piece from 4Kids, and they've done a very good job with it too.

Another series that they have the rights to is KenIchi, the Mightest Disciple which I really wanna see. Comes out sometime next month, and all I know is that I wanna see the trailer for it.

Where is it?

Oh, and Yu Yu Hakusho, that's another great dub work.

Beck is one of the best Funimation dubs I've ever heard.
DBZ was cool.

Funimation holds plenty of good series. I like the fact that they try posting their series online, and get everything dubbed. However, they do have problems.

When it comes to moe, Funimation has a high chance of failing. I found Negima's dub to be displeasing for a huge majority of the characters. That goes for a lot of other female characters in their series as well. Also, the majority of their voice actors also have problems with name pronunciation. Can't they try teaching them to learn proper japanese characters before the process of recording?

I also find that their DVD menu's are usually dull. When I buy a disc, I'd like to have a fully animated menu, or at least a nice design. When I get one from Funimation, it's just a still image with music. Additional DVD extras would be nice to have too (such as voice actor interviews or something.) The ability to skip strait to the menu instead of watching a trailer first is also desired.

Additionally, I believe the box quality has been pretty poor with their recent releases. I prefer the days when they had actual boxes instead of thinpacks. Bandai has a method of releasing the volumes in sets, which I believe they should learn from. I wouldn't mind paying more money for a nicer box. Afterall, one of my main reasons for buying is so I can have the series physically, instead of just a downloaded file.

Yeah, they're awesome.

My favorites would probably have to be FMA and Ouran.

I love Funi's dub of Baccano and I love how cheap the box sets are.

Funimation knows what we nerds want but I got one thing to ask. Why is it people say the dub of fairy tail ruin it? I've heard the dub and its not as good as the subs but great in its own right but yet people says its even worse then the aniplex dub.
