Speaking of the dub (lol) does anyone know if it's going to be up for downloading somewhere? I'm one of those people who is really, really curious but doesn't live in America, woe! TT^TT

Aw, too bad. :(

Thanks for the tip! Saw the trailer and it's gonna take a while to get used to the voices and stuff. Still, it's really not that bad. Naruto's voice sounded okay to me. It looks like they put a lot of effort into it though.

His name wasn't changed to Nathan...

I really wish people would stop bashing the dub since NO ONE'S seen more than 25 seconds of it.

I know it's a joke. I saw it a long time ago when it first came out. Don't worry about it.

My biggest deal is that people are saying that it sucks before it even comes out. People just hold such UNBELIEVABLY high standards for a show they love and if those standards aren't met 100%, people freak out.

As for taking the "Japaneseness" out of anime...I actually disagree with that. A lot of the Japanese puns and jokes would make NO sense to an American. I'm kind of glad if something like that is changed.

But if you think about it, people ARE working hard to dub this show. And it's not like they're INTENTIONALLY making it "horrible".

I just wanted to say that the One Piece dub is hardly representitive of dubs coming out today, heck I wouldn't even call it a dub it's just so horrible I mean it's 4Kids to judge dubs in general by that is just wrong!

Also Rule the School is Toonami's slogan for it and Toonami doesn't have anything to do with the dub at all, they're only showing it.

Hehe anyway I'm really looking foward to this Saturday! I can't wait to see the dub. I hope it does very well.

But the few seconds of dialogue presented so far have not been very promising as an advertisement for it...the pronunciation of names was rather wobbley to say the least and the acting didn't really shine as special in a very emotional scene (though I thought Naruto himself sounded OK). But at the least the names are as they should be, and the bgm seemed intact, eh. ^^ I was more gently amused than horrifed.

Though.... surely this ep has now shown...if it hasn't, the clip they chose was rather a spoiler...?!

Rule the School?

Um...but they're all graduated by the end of the first ep...even Naruto manages to bluff a graduation...lol!

Never mind. *^^*

It was the pronuncxiation of Mizuki that killed me dead; Mizooki!? Who is this mysterious Mi'zoo'ki! Have they seen his filler arc? Are they mocking his tigery-ness? >,< Hasn't he suffered enough? *cries*

:DDD

To be honest, they pronounce the names more true to the Japanese version than I do. But even then, you can't expect Americans to pronounce Japanese PERFECTLY. Not everyone takes Japanese.

Who knows? Maybe they'll surprise us and it will be better than that few seconds!

I guess so...but when you have heard a name pronounced in one way (the correct way, really, as in the end, the show is Japanese) over the course of over 150 (as of tonight!) episodes, adjusting to these new presentations is not going to be easy at all, and is inevitably going to get reactions of hilarity, hatred, or a bit of both.

I certainly accpet that you can't make a final judgement from a few clips; I'm just saying that the clip I have seen so far has not done their effort any favours.

The Nathan and Sean joke has been around for quite some time. I haven't been in the fandom for a year yet, but I've seen it since I joined. It's not bashing, it one great big joke.

I've seen it too. I thought it was funny at first too!
But:
1) Jokes CAN get killed if they are overdone.
2) The dub is ACTUALLY coming out now.

1) I haven't seen it overdone, really. Just here and there.
2) I don't really see what the point is. Sure, the dub is coming out, but people can still think it's funny.

1) Hense the word "can".
2) I just meant that since it's coming out now and everyone is jumping on the "OMFG THE DUB SUX" bandwagon, it just sort of...lameifies the joke.

I think that "OMFG THE DUB SUX" this is just prejudice towards dubs. I don't like them for the most part. Once it actually plays, I'm sure a lot of people will jump off of that wagon. I've seen it happen before, so I'm sure it'll happen here as well.

I hope it will - it's Naruto in the end and expansion in the audience can only do the story's future good. ^^

But I am a poor old Brit. I expect the dub will reach us by the next decade. lol! (We got lucky getting the first show of Beyblade GRev - I am not expecting it to happen again! =^^=)

It's easier for me to get the 'real thing' than the dub! :DDD

Someone ripped and uploaded FMA dubs when they came out, so I'm sure there will be someone out there who will do the same from Naruto. We can only hope.

I was kinda hoping for Nathan and Sean too: I wanted the dub to be really bad so it was good for the comedy value.
We have the original, after all and it's wonderful. That's enough for me. ^^
