Spirited Away (2001)
8/10
People that said Disney is all happiness and rainbows, never watched this dub
12 March 2008
Warning: Spoilers
OK, I'll had to admit, I'm not quiet a big fan of Disney. The movies to me only got good in the '80s. And I only like a few of its TV cartoons.

But, this is quiet a good movie if you asked me. I know that they changed a few scenes from the oringal stories of Cinderella and The little Merimaid that I think they should keep.

But, I have no problem with this dub of this movie. The voice acting, despite sounding like some other characters, fitted the characters, the animation was well done, and the plot was excellent.

Of course, they were a few edits, what dub doesn't? But, the dub didn't edit this one thing: They kept the blood in it when Haku was attacked and bleeding from the inside.

They actually kept the blood in it.

And Disney is the one that did the dub

So, if you think Disney cuts all the blood out into happiness and rainbows, watch the dub of this.

Sonic X (2003–2006)
8/10
Watch the japan version of the show
12 March 2008
Warning: Spoilers
Well, this is my view alone, so not all of you had to agreed with me. This review is for the japan version only.

I see some people saying that Sonic X sucks. If they only see the 4baka version, I wouldn't blame them. I only seen one scene from the English dub and boy, was it awful. The cuts were so obvious that even blind people would even see them, the voice acting phails, and the only thing good out of it was the animation. I swore never to watch the English version of any episode. No offense to anyone that liked that version, but it wasn't that great to me.

Now got that out of the way, I'll explained why I rate it what I did. Now, I only seen the sub episodes 1-66(expect for episode 53), but it shocked me. WOW.

The voice acting was so well done. I was a bit iffy for Sonic's voice and Robotnic's didn't sound like he supposed to, but other then that, GOOD CHOICE! The plots were good, thought most early episodes could been better.

The animation is the best from all sonic animation. Heck, even 4baka can't destroy that.

All in all, the Japanese version is worthy for a good watch. English version, not so much. Until I found a DVD set with the japan version with English subs, the only dvds I'll be interesting buying with that blue hedgehog is Underground, satAM and possibly OVA.

Di-Gata Defenders (2006–2008)
9/10
A lovely show, though has flaws. 4totutre shouldn't get a hold of it either
1 March 2008
Warning: Spoilers
This a great show, though I can understand why most people confused it as a horrid show.

It's all dang 4k!ds' fault, making it look like a bunch of crud.

This show has it all; good action, awesome plot twists(especially on Seth's part, even though losing his hand kinda felt like the whole Kragus Merger thing all over again), a lovely story, well developed characters, good music and a vast majority of characters sounded like they were supposed too.

But, hopefully 4bakas won't touch it, since it's already in English, though it may cut out a LOT of things(ed. upfront references to death, character death, strong y7-FV violence, etc.).

Course, no rose is without thorns. A vast majority of pre-Replication episodes were decent enough, but not enough to wow me. Kara's voice is good, but she sounded younger then she's supposed to be. Some season 2 episodes felt like fillers. And Malco not dying kind of ruined the point of the first finial for me.

Not half bad, if you ask me.
1 March 2008
This is a pretty good film if you ask me. Personally, I rather the guy who did this dub do the dub for Sonic X then 4toture.

This is at least 95% actuate to the original Japanese. I only said 95 because of some edits I read on Wiki(which, unlike 4Toture, were understandable if they planned for younger viewers to see it) and some of the names changed, which, in my opinion, were for the best to make it dark.

style: Since I adored 2D animation, this is pretty snazzy if you ask me.

story: It's pretty good, though it could been longer.

voices: The main reason I rate this an 8 instead of something higher. While Knuckles', Sera's, Metal's, Robotnic's and Old Owl's were good and sonic's was decent but a bit off at times,the rest could had been a lot better. But, that was a minor setback and they were a lot better compared to the 4baka's cast.

So, if your like me and like dubs that are done well, I reckoned this, but the Japanese version for those who hate dubs with a burning passion, no matter how little the cuts are. Also recommended by fans of the blue hedgehog, of course. Other then that, it's whatever you like or not it's up to you.
