I don't really mind dubs, actually. The Naruto dub is "eh", and One Piece is terrible, but other than that I have no real problems with them.

For a second, I thought I was reading a script outtake from Advance Wars: Dual Strike. Damn Skippy, that is some horrendous script writing. Probably by someone whose only exposure to "the streets" was thru the Fast and the Furious films....

Well, I don't know if it's worse but it's really different compared to the original. In Panyo Panyo Di Gi Charat...I think it went something like this, though the character lines may be switched around.Original:Meek: Hey we should go say hello to the queen.Rinna: Alright.*both run up as Dejiko falls on her face*Meek & Rinna: Are you all right?Very cute and touching right?Dub:Meek: Oh no, she's heading right towards us.Rinna: We need to find a way to get past her!*both run up as Dejiko falls on her face*Meek: Great! That bought us some time!That was kind of sad compared to the original. I mean...it was so kind in the Japanese version but the American version seemed so horrible.

Okay, that's just wrong. The translator/scriptwriter needs a drug test. What am I saying, they'd flunk it anyway. I think the subtitles on one of those Hong Kong bootlegs would be more faithful than that... adaptation. Blech.

Most dubs done by 4Kids are pitiful.The best example is One Piece. Ick.There are very good ones though. I think for instance of Cowboy Bebop or Hellsing. Both are very good. :blush:

Best anime dub : B-Daman, without a doubt... :)Worst anime dub: One Piece, without a doubt... However, there is ANOTHER dub, not made by 4Kids! And, guess what? 96 % of it is left unedited! And they actually found voices fitting for the characters! Think they were called Odex, or something...

I'm not certain about the worst, but Last Exile has an excellent dubbing job. I was thoroughly impressed.
