WHO LIKES UNTRANSLATED ANIME!? I do....lol especially Dragonball Z. One good example of this is...Buu's voice in america....annoying squeeky voices belong to the Pilsbury doughboy...

then yes, I definately prefer subbed, I makes it more dramatic and I feel like I'm getting the perspective on the character that the creator intended.

*High five is reciprocated* damn they should have a smilie of one of those. I don't know who fat buu is but I suspect that the cause is glandular

....anyway...in Japan it was because when he absorbed Dai Kaio, Kaio made sure that Buu would become fat,dumb,and weak. In America they make it seem like Dai Kaio was dumb and weak himself...HE WAS ONE OF THE STRONGEST AND SMARTEST PEOPLE ALIVE! I MEAN HE'S ONE OF THE HIGHEST GODS!

...we're talking about Anime here.

While I'm in Rant-mode, I want to rant.

Dai-kaiou-shin = God of the Kaioushins

I personally like the English sub, titled by Steve. Very good, though they don't use the Japanese spellings like Gokuu and Bejiita, I can tolerate it.

One more thing, I'd watch it raw ifI could learn more Japanese. :P

That's becuase it's not necesarry... Why is it that every obsessed otaku except me is obsessed with u's and double i's. Heh... Like, the people who would get pissed at me for spelling Ryoko without the u (Ryouko) or Goku with only one u, or other such stuff... :P

Those extra vowels are there for a reason in Japanese, but the reason is lost when translated to english simply because we don't pronounce things the same way they do. If you wanna get technical, to get the same pronunciation for Goku, we'd have to start spelling it "gokoo" with a line over the two o's...

Quitcherbitchin' :P
