*smacks you* Thats because you watched the ENGLISH DUB! That is something to be avoided like the Devil! Watch the subtitled one. It may have language fuckups up the wazoo but it's at least good and they sound fine. Sheesh, don't you know we can't make english versions for shit? Yes I know there are some good cases, but generally people. Actually, I have seen the Japanese version, my friend made me watch the subbed first season, I still hate the f'n show.

Huh, well.....*shrugs* Whatever. I don't see how that could happen, but meh, it's your mind, not mine. And Zatch Bell is interesting, I only saw one part of an episode, so I don't know much.

The English Dub of Hellsing is good, but it has ALOT more foul langauge then the japanese version, which is pretty foul to begin with. Both Manga and Anime are violent lil affairs. Course that dun bother me, everyone here knows I get off on pain and suffering. Ask Goji, I make him suffer as much as I can. hehehehehehehehe

I've seen that happen in other English dubs, like the anime Karas. I think the people who write the english scripts just like to add a few more usages of the word 'fuck' to make it seem more 'American.'

Prince of Tennis is awful. The dubbing is worse than One-Piece.
It's also one of those shonen(aimed at guys) shows that actually has a larger fanbase of girls than guys. As both Ozma and King of Slackers can attest to, with our two girl friends who are madly obsessed with the prepubescent boys of Prince of Tennis.

I know a Gundam Wing FANBOY, who likes Heero at almost the same magnitude that Gundam Wing Fangirls do (well maybe, I don't know any).

By the by, that whole "BELIEVE IT" thing is one of the top two reasons I hate the fact that Naruto got dubbed -.-. That character has never, and will never, EVER say that line, and it's irritating. Only other thing I have to say is this: Naruto has nothing to do with Naruto. He himself is the ADHD ninja, you don't watch for him. All the other characters are what make it cool.

"Beleive It!" is a very bad translation of the japanese phrase: Yatta. which has no literal meaning. it simply is an expression of excitement. there is no direct translation so something needed to be made up. they just chose the absolute crappiest option...

yatta is more closely related to "alright!" or "awsome!" or "right on!"
And to the respect of the english dub, which actually has very good dubs when it comes to dubbing mainstream anime Naruto has stopped saying 'believe it' altogether. The dubbers got the idea.
And I will have to disagree with Emissary: While just about every character is cool in Naruto, Naruto himself is like fine wine, getting better with age. Unlike most characters in his situation he actually does alot of growing, and feels real. He is my favorite main character of any mainstream anime.

Agreed. It's takes some dedication to watching and reading, but he does grow. And it's awesome. Of course, I hate Sasuke for being so emo, but thats beside the point. =p

Y'know, I used to hate Sasuke too, but he's become cool since the timeskip. And to be fair, his entire family (including extended family) was killed by his brother right in front of his face, cut the man some slack! And as for all the gayness jokes, if ANYTHING Naruto is gay. He's more obsessed with Sasuke then anyone, he even openly turns down advances from Sakura to talk about Sasuke for the lova christ. He's more fruity then every plant in the carribbean. narutomanga.17.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?t=1653
