Cool thanks. I guess it's just a matter of overwork and coincidence, because I like other voices she has done, expecially Faye and Kione. It's just that the Hina dub is so wretched... And I wonder why the hell thge dubbed Tama.

Whoa whoa whoa - Tama speaks? Tama didn't even speak in the original!

Or did they have an American do the cooing sounds for Tama?

It's hippy stupid, either way.

She seems to do a lot of Megumi Hiyashibara's roles for some reason: she was in Blue Seed as Momiji, Cowboy Bebop as Faye and N.G. Evangelion as Rei. All of which were voiced by Hayashibara.

Personally I thought the whole dub to Love Hina was a flaming load, Mitsune was the worst, since when to people in Japan have fake southern accents? On an interesting note Hayashibara was also in Love Hina as Haruka, I guess Lee follows here around in a way...

Yeah I watched that on my Love Hina dvd. I really don't like Su's voice. I thought Tama sounded kinda cute.

Just the sounds.. they actually redubbed the sounds that Tama makes.

You damn right. The whole dub is a load of horsecock. Especially since I tried watching it after watching the dub of Excel Saga, which is decent (Though still urks me at times...) It's like a fandub, I swear. In fact, I think I'll continue to refer to the LH dub as a fandub.. it's the same level of quality. The companies that dub anime need to look at the Fruba dub, kick themselves in the head, and say "Oh look, some companies are actually TRYING! Damn it!" Ugh!

Thank god for DVDs having the Japanese audio track on them...

One final interesting thing I noticed about the Love Hina dub. Any singing was not dubbed, and I for one think that's a GOOD thing! Like the episode where Naru becomes an idol, or the episode where they are at the summer festival and they all sing "Sakura Saku" - I really like the fact that they didn't try to ruin.. er.. I'm sorry, DUB the music.

Yeah, that pissed me off.

Oh well. Until the anime companies are run by true fans, you can only expect ass and be amazed when it's not.

Someday though, the anime industry of north america will be OTAKUNIZED! (Obligatory Otaku no Video reference)
