[@lexlang5357]

I agree, this was a very unorganized dub. Sorry about that guys. We weren't told what show we were doing before the session. The Director was replaced the night before the recording session, and the actors were limited to listening to a director that had come in at the last moment and wasn't familiar with the show. And we were told, "do not reference the other cast in any way". Many of the actors were also not familiar with the show. (or hadn't watched it as a kid), including myself. I had played Gohan in a video game 20 years earlier, but knew nothing about Goku. It wasn't until I was at the session that I found out I was playing him. I spoke with Sean Schemmel briefly and he advised me to make Goku really young and innocent. So that's how I started it. But after the initial recording session of 8 episodes (the first day). I looked at the character descriptions online, and began to develop a different take on it. By the end of our 19 episodes I was getting closer, but never really was able to show what I had developed because the director wanted to keep it in the style of the first few episodes. (crappy) I've done over 400 characters in my voice acting career, Anime, Video Games, TV, and Major Motion Pictures. Many with Bang Zoom (they are a great production company with lots of great actors) so to all my fans out there, sorry this one was so off base. If I ever get a chance to play Goku again, it will be "my way" and you can bet that it will be totally different, and way better. But until then, enjoy the work I'm doing now on Jojo's, Jujutsu Kaisen, Lupin the Third, The Simpsons, Guild Wars 2, Crash Bandicoot, Doom Patrol and more. And have a great love filled healthy life!

Hi Lex. I totally understand the situation you all went thru. I love this cast you were part of, and I think all of you deserve another chance to show all your experience and talent onto the Dragon Ball characters. I really beg for a spark of hope in the future that you all can be brought back for another Dragon Ball production, you guys are the best of the best of the US english voice acting. With those episodes you got to dub, you guys became my favorite english-speaking Dragon Ball actors already (and I will never forget that you are all part of these characters forever), and that was because with each episode I could feel how you all were adapting and understanding the characters better, step by step, and I know that if you got the chance of a handful more of episodes, you could have reached a perfect result. Greetings Lex, keep on with your quality job! 🙌

[@megax5000]

hey Lex! Huge fan of yours since the days when you voiced Sanosuke on Rurouni Kenshin! I think Mark was a bit too tough on you. I know you're a great actor and it looks like the issue was the production was borked from the start. keep up the good work!

[@VLE-Grimace]

Hey man don’t feel too bad, for a lot of people (including myself) the Funimation dub is what we all grew up listening to and it’s jarring to hear anything other than we’re used to. Those are gigantic shoes to fill and you guys did the best you could!

[@vortexmfsbe]

I'm honestly very happy that you were finding a different take on goku but you weren't allowed to do it in your own way (from what I'm understanding) But still it wasn't that bad it wasn't good. the voice wasn't that off its definitely better than how I'd voice goku. but still I'd love to see you voice another character apart from your different shows and or games.

[@SalemWolf]

You sound cool af, kudos to seeing a video slamming your guys' performance and just taking it in stride.

@@gito7604 Yeah that's the thing about voice acting. A director can make or break a project. If you have a director who has little experience, chances are you're gonna sound like shit regardless of how good you are as an actor

A fun bit of trivia about the bang zoom dub regarding TFS... apparently Lex Lang (I think it was Lex but don't quote me on it I'm very likely wrong on who it was), wanted one Martin Billany (known to many people as the one and only LittleKurriboh) to be their Frieza, to the point of setting up a petition around it! No Joke... Martin "LittleKurriboh" Billany came this close to playing Frieza in real life...

Why would you need more than one English dub?

[@M4rtyMcFly21]

It’s funny because this studio got the rights before Funimation did. I remember the news and was like “Who the hell are they?!”

[@BlkPowerstroke]

It for different part of world funimation for usa ocean for Canada this for india and south asia

[@SilvioSa21]

Because the english speaking countries have different cultures and therefore different interpretations. Dubbing isn't just voicing over in another language, there's a whole job of transmitting the original ideas in a way that both the japanese and the other viewers receive the same message. Something funny in Japan is not funny in USA nor India. Flirting in India is completely different from flirting in Canada. So these regions have to have their own interpretations of the story, so it can hold up to the what the original intented.

Honestly, while Lex Lang's performance as Goku leaves a lot to be desired, I feel that the actual sound of his voice provides a nice take on the character. It sounds...soft and carefree, like a more chilled variation off Schemmel's take. It really reminds me of when Goku was a teen, so I like it! With a much better script, and adequate direction, I do think Lex could pull off a memorable Goku. It's just a shame the chances of that happening are equal to escaping the Dead Zone.

Looking at 2 clips available on youtube and acting as if whole dub is as bad as big green dub or something is just plane ridiculous, That's just pure misleading!! Of course their they aren't funimation so they are going to sound different and screams are heard off because of bad recoding or sound mixing isn't clear yet. But are they really bad??

[@nemomo6026]

That Goku voice makes me want to get the mind eraser from gravity falls

[@d3athr0ck3r]

I wanna say the reason Lex Lang interprets Goku this way was as you can see on the Wikipedia page he was a The voice actor for Kenshiro in the dub of the original 1984 Hokuto No Ken/Fist Of The North Star. That’s probably why when Goku punches really fast he sounds like Kenshiro when he does his “Hokuto Hyakuretsu Ken”. A move where Kenshiro’s fists move at the speed of light for 100 punches activating your pressure points and making your body contort explode from the pressure. So that’s an explanation for what Goku might sound a bit familiar when he was punching at Beerus.

[@t-wrecksthenerdasaur7468]

Lang has worked for Bang Zoom before, namely in the Ruroni Kenshin dub as Sanosuke (which he was really good as in my opinion). Bang Zoom is actually one of the best dubbing studios out there (unless you are a sub snob) and did the fantastic Gurren Lagann dub, Haruhi Suzumiya, Eureka Seven, The Seven Deadly Sins, Kill La Kill, S-cry-ed and Samurai Champloo just to name a few. Even the Ruroni Kenshin dub, while old and suffering from some old fashioned localizing problems, had a great cast, especially Steven Blum as Shishio and Dorthy Fawn as Kaoru. Keep in mind too, that the actors have no control over what they are told to do in a dub. If the producers tell them to sound a certain way, they can't just say no. For example, Goku's FUNimation actor once had to play a mammoth doing an Arnold Schwarzenegger impression. He was told to do that, he didn't just decide to do that on his own. On top of this, it's a foreign company calling the shots so even if Bang Zoom wanted to do a dub similar to Funi's, they couldn't. I should also point out that FUNimation has contracted out to Bang Zoom such as for RE: Zero and Mob Psycho. So obviously the guys that do the normal dub of Dragon Ball don't have a problem with them.

Lex Lang also voices Kenshiro in the old-ass Hokuto no ken dub. I guess that explains the high pitched attack noises.

[@backupaccount9263]

Wumbo lol, although I get what you're trying to say, you act as if official anime dubs aren't for entertainment purposes.

[@heitorzincleiton5071]

You better believe it, here in Brazil, they putted memes on the dialogues, for example, instead of vegeta saying that black is too powerful, he says “black’s power is over 9000” or master Roshi in the tournament of power saying that kale is similar to broly, but dragonball super broly happened AFTER THE TOURNAMENT OF POWER

[@pixelatedink955]

Ive heard that in brazil, they always put memes in dubs. One example being a dub for the 90's sonic satAM as the fans call it. They ude 2020's slang, even making tails say "cringe". In english. In a Brazilian dub. The heck?

Bang Zoom is a good dubbing studio. "Kill la Kill" and "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure" are both done well, it's not hard to look up good examples of their dubs. You have to remember that they're an independent studio that gets contracted by different licensing and production companies. They're not in-charge of these properties and it's not as black-and-white as "not everyone can be a FUNimation". Also, have you seen FUNImation's original dub of "DBZ"? It's actually pretty terrible.

[@startmirca]

Samuel Einhorn DBZ fans have nostalgia glasses glued to the face to see how bad the original FUNI dub of DBZ was. The DBS dub isn’t officially cancelled (despite what the fans say), but if it was, i’d be annoyed to see it cut short considering it has potential.

[@isabellareyes8509]

I speak spanish, and saw like one or two episodes of DBZ dub in english by FUNanimation. Except for Bulma's voice (in spanish it's so annoying omg), everything was... meh. Like, exagerated? I don't know how to explain myself.

[@LapisAndroid17ParkRanger]

Thats not confusing to follow then.

[@Ultrazoop]

I can only assume that it would have cost too much money to license the Funi dub for whatever countries this was aired in, so they outsourced it to Bang Zoom to make it for cheap Bang Zoom, upon realizing they were making a dub for a primarily non-english-speaking audience, figured they could just engage in Jokes and not take it seriously

[@GalanDun]

Yeah, same thing happened for the Westwood Z dub.

[@jimmyvanilla5285]

Some of the lines sound like an amateur KZbinr who hasn’t bought a good mic yet.

[@ventlight4218]

Bang Zoom is not only responsible for this. They also done mockbusters like a kung fu panda knockoff called “The adventures of the panda warrior” where they got ROB SCHNEIDER TO VOICE THE MAIN PROTAGONIST AND EVEN TOM KENNY (Spongebob squarepants) TO VOICE OTHER CHARACTERS.

[@yoursteak5215]

They say there is no greater torture than watching the Grubhub ad... They haven’t seen this.

[@thebladezmanII]

It's sad that this dub is so bad since it has so many good voice actors in it. It's a testament to how poor voice direction can make good voice actors piss poor. Toonami Asia seriously couldn't wait for FUNimation - the irony is that both dubs ended up being released at the same time. Sadly, this dub isn't cancelled but it's going as slow as shit, probably since Toonami Asia is regretting commissioning their own dub. Also; Lex has done plenty of work of Bang Zoom! - only one that comes to mind is Sanosuke Sagara in "Rurouni Kenshin". Which is quite a far cry from his Goku - it makes it hard to believe it's the same voice actor.

[@SithDestroyerVideoProductions]

I don't really understand how it's a bad dub. It's just that these character actors don't really have the feel of the characters. It's got some good choices, like Ginyu, Frieza, especially Vegeta. It also just kinda suffers because it's on Cartoon Network.

[@SithDestroyerVideoProductions]

Adventurous Adventurer Augustus Got me there.

[@mehgamer467]

Sith Destroyer why does the Indian dub suffer from being on cartoon network?

[@SithDestroyerVideoProductions]

MehGamer Because DBS has already been toned down due to guidelines in Japan about violence and such. Putting it on CN makes it worse, as they can't properly convey the dialogue and words characters use.

[@mehgamer467]

Sith Destroyer guess another reason why the funimation one is better because it's on adult swim/toonami. Thanks for the insight.
