Not me. Lockon sounds like a 20 year old dorm room drug dealer/whore trying to get Setsuna to buy something off of him in the dub preview. Vowels sounds like he put on a Darth Vader helmet and is the starring lead in a high school drama reinactment of the life of Edgar Allen Poe, bedecked in black nail polish and a multiplicity of piercings. OH THE TRAGEDY

"We just picked a fight with the......whooole woooorld, Setsuna. ....In this Gundam there are BILLIONS and BILLIONS of molecules. Dude." *toke*

And it's not even that I dislike dubs or as some jackass up there put it 'omgz gaijins ruinin mah animu' (I liked FFXII's dub much better than the original JP track, also Cowboy Bebop was pretty goddamn good), it's just that the voice acting in the 00 preview makes me want to stab my own eardrums out and eat them with sauce. Lets...enunciate....really...slowly....for....heightened...drama

Maybe it was just the preview that sucked and the rest of the show will be A+++ excellent in the acting department. But I doubt it.

Anyway, point being is that it's not worth it to judge based on the trailer alone. Voice actors can get better and just to point out, they said only ONE FUCKING LINE per character. If you're making assumptions based off just that, then I suggest you go hang yourself kthx.

It wasn't bad, I watched the first episode on online streaming. Buuut. It just wasn't the same, y'know what I mean? Kamina lacked steam. And they had edited some scenes out from the episode.

There was a commercial for Gas X in the middle of Kamina's death scene.
>> Ribbons Almack

>>1045600
From what I've heard he ended up redeeming himself by pulling off the death scene perfectly. And to be honest, Kamina is a hard character to play in general, so I give Kyle two thumbs up for trying.

Also Gurren Lagann =/= Gundam 00 in terms of dubbing studios. Ocean Groups is handling this one, and they aren't taking many chances. They're bringing back a lot of their regulars for 00, who do a fantastic job if I do say so myself.

I'm automatically biased since I met quite a few of them in real life; fuckin' hilarious guys too. Gundam guest slam at AN05 was amazing to attend.

Normally I love you, you crazy tripfag, but considering that the trailer did sound pretty bad you have to give them credit for conceeding in their post that it might not be so bad later on. Don't be a dick.

Personally I found Lockon to be less 'drug dealer' and more 'James T. Kirk roleplayer' but that's just me.

Believe me, I'm not one to usually snap at such comments. But I still think shitsux if you're slapping a crap label based on ten seconds of footage per character, as well.

I wasn't too impressed with Lockon, but the rest I found myself quite taken to. S'all an opinion deary, and this is 4chan. Normally I'd be more modest if it was any other website.

FFF PATRICK'S VOICE ACTOR -LOOKS UP-
>> Anonymous
     File :-(, x)
Anon has seen the first episode of the dub, they premiered it at AE.

In anon's opinion it's win - for everything else except Setsuna who sucks balls. God, Setsuna is 16 but Swaile makes him sound like 30.

Ali is perfect, perfect, perfect, Patrick is incredibly hilarious and Saji is so moe even the mostly male audience went all awwww... So Tieria is manry - well, Tieria is actually pretty manry in the original version too. Lockon isn't bad when you hear more of him, he's got a certain softness to his voice (though god not like Miki obviously). Allelujah is good too, Hal doesn't make an appearance in the first ep. Graham and Billy were fine too, nothing special but fine.

So... if you like dubs you'll probably like this one too. If you don't like dubs, do something more productive with your time and waste it watching this.
>> Ribbons Almack

Sorry, anon doesn't know voice actors that well I could say who they were, and the end credits were super fast. They also watched us for filming so I couldn't video it...
