| Dark Cat is about on par with hentai dubs. I think Locke is the worst on that list, though. I'd have to really try to come up with a dub worse than that one. |
| What's wrong with the dub for Bleach? Both the dub and the show are miles ahead of Naruto. For some perspective on horrible dubs, I suggest any of the links Swat provided above. |

JTurner said: Looking at X/1999 right now. I'm neutral about the characters' voices (some are decent, others sound QUITE off), but the acting sounds very all over the place, with a lot of stiff or stunted delivery, and sometimes overacted/underacted. My biggest problem is that the sound quality is quite bad -- distorted and grating, almost like it was recorded at a high-level. Speaking of bottom of the barrel, here's MY choice for one of the most bottom of the barrel dubs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6-yAIUII9nE No, it's not the Disney version that I'm talking about, but the ancient 80's dub. This clip contains both. the Disney version comes first, and THEN the original lifeless version. Trust me, one listen to the latter and you'll quickly realize how better Disney's dub sounds. Kanoe's voice(The evil sexy long haired chick) in the dub of X/1999 movie is the only decent performance, It was resonating with sensuality.(Well, sensual women voices are more pleasing for me to listen to.) As for Laputa, Disney's dub is superior, so it's no contest. |

| I wasn't able to get through 10 minutes of the Mawaru Penguindrum dub. I ruined a potentially great show for myself. |

That line was hilarious. One of Kenpachi's best. Such a shame that Lodge couldn't have still been the one to deliver it. |
wzrd said: Funny you should mention that. I watching a bit of it just then and onestly I can't blame you. I don't often stuff like this about English Dubs but Mawaru Penguindrum's Dub is an absolute disgrace to the series.I wasn't able to get through 10 minutes of the Mawaru Penguindrum dub. I ruined a potentially great show for myself. The more I watch the worse it seems to get. I mean, who in God's name thought Illich Guardiola with his deep middle aged man voice would be able to believably play a teenage boy. Not only is it badly acted but it oozes incompetence and laziness. Voice actors for lead characters being replaced halfway through the series (Not mention neither VA sounds anything like each other), songs being left in Japanese when they really should have been translated into English, one song being accidentally cut out because of an editing mistake, it's all just a big mess. Monica Rial and Emily Neves are fine but nothing spectacular. I'd hesitate to even call them 'good'. |

| Master of Martial Hearts- For a Funimation dub I'm really not impressed. |

| The series was complete garbage. If anything the dub made it way more tolerable for me. Either way it's a lot better than Master of Martial Hearts ever deserved. |

| I tend to choose my anime based on what I hear about their dubs, so I've been pretty lucky there. Higurashi and Samurai X were some I did have a few issues with. Some of Psycho-Pass's dub VAs were alright, but it just felt too wooden overall, then there's Toradora!, which Taiga's VA completely destroyed. |
SeibaaHomu said: The series was complete garbage. If anything the dub made it way more tolerable for me. Either way it's a lot better than Master of Martial Hearts ever deserved. At least with Funimation titles they give a decent effort at voicing it. Agent Aika's got one of the worst English dubs I've heard for a pantsu fighter series. |

There have been Funimation dubs in the past that barely impressed me. Examples: Fafner: Heaven and Earth (Texas cast pales in comparison to the TV series which was dubbed in California.)

| True. I didn't want to imply they are automatically excused from making crappy dubs. |
| Hayate no Gotoku Dub is god awful but then again so is every Animax dub. Surprised they bothered doing all 52 eps AND the 2nd season. |
| With all due respect to Greg Ayres, I didn't think he was that great as Rygart Arrow in the Broken Blade films. |

I've only seen one dub from Animax thus far and that was Sword Art Online. I thought that particular dub was really good, easily deserving of a 10. You're confusing Animax with Aniplex...Animax is an official Asian based company that typically produces "engrish dubs" for some anime. |

| You're Under Arrest's dub is really bad, is almost like a hentai, cracks me up, is also a example of a dub with lame localized jokes and references thrown in. The quality of the dub and the year gab between the 3 was probably the reason Season 2 and 3 were never dubbed. |
| Chromartie high school dub sucks, but it suits the hilarity of the show. |
╮ (. ❛ ᴗ ❛.) ╭ |
| The *Cromartie High School dub is fantastic. Back in a time when Steve Foster was at his best and long before Penguindrum put a massive stain on my opinion of him. Speaking of which, DO NOT WATCH PENGUINDRUM DUBBED. It's probably one of the few dubs I've seen that outright ruins the show. |

| I don't know that "convincingly" is a word I would use for anyone on that list, certainly not Maile. Women voicing boy characters is hardly realistic, but we as a community have come to accept the sort of screechy tone that comes with it most of the time. It's a trope, really. The only time I've heard a female voice in anime that I could believe would belong to a real, breathing human male is Caitlin Glass's Haruhi in Ouran High School Host Club... and she was still a girl, albeit androgynous. |
GreenSoap said: The Bleach dub was atrocious all the way through. I didn't like Kuwabara's voice in Yu Yu Hakusho; annoying as shit. The Hunter x Hunter dub was pretty disappointing, but not that bad in reality. You and I are of two very, very different minds. :I |
