I find it weird that she voiced kid Goku and Gohan but not Goten. It would be great if she did it kinda like how Masako Nozowa did it to the Son family. What do you guys think?

Makes more sense than Piccolo and Vegeta having practically the same voice after the original Ocean dub episodes.

Oh god no. She had kid Gohan sounding like a chain smoker.

I’d rather have Linda Young.

I personally hated her portrayal of Kid Gohan, save for in Raging Blast, as well as her role as Kid Goku, whereas Kara Edwards does a decent job as Goten, so no. The dynamic Nozawa has in voicing the Son family wouldn't work the same in English as Nozawa adds differences in the speech style of the family members, which would've been difficult to replicate without giving Goten a completely different accent to Goku or Gohan.

Do you like Gohan's Luffy's new VA from Kai onward?

Yeah. She sounds a lot more natural for a kid's voice. Clickenbeard's portrayal of Kid Goku, however, is even worse than Nadoly's.

Isn't Xenoverse (and a few Kai flashbacks I guess) the only opportunity she had to voice Goku though?

I didn't. I just learnt Clickenbeard voiced Galu in it, heard her voice acting in Xenoverse and gained all I need from that. :troll

I don't think Clickenbeard is spectacular as Kid Gohan or anything, but she's a definite major improvement over Nadoly. You didn't like Nadoly as Kid Goku though? I thought she sounded a lot better as Kid Goku than Gohan. Still nothing great.


I assume you think Chris Ayres is >>>>>>>> Linda Young as Freeza? I can't even hear Freeza as Linda Young anymore. Ayres has totally replaced those old memories.

Her Kid Goku voice is the lesser of her two evils, though still very limited when it comes to emotional range and overall portrayal of the character was nowhere near Nozawa's level.

Definitely, though Ryusei Nakao >>> All when it comes to being Freeza.

Ryusei IS Freeza. He has the campy sounding space mob boss nailed down.

Still, not sure I could've sat through RoF dubbed without Ayres. His performance as Freeza was the only thing keeping my attention. :alex2

She's better than the new one. The new one sounds like an adult trying to imitate a child. So artificial it makes me cringe.

Who is the 'new one' you're referring to? The one who voiced Goten and Video as well?

Oh, I meant Gohan's voice, sorry. I got caught-up on the arguments on this thread that I forgot about the main-topic itself.

So then you were talking about Kai Version Clinkenbeard?
