I would've posted last night but I was MUCH too excieted!! >3<
I LOVE THE VOICES O_O I know a number of peopl ehave expressed how much they love the voices, how much they hate them, and how many people are indifferent, need more time, or prefer the japanese even if the FUNimation dub is slightly better than the 4kids. (don't get me wrong I LOVE the japanese One Piece more than anything on earth but I also thought the FUNi dub was amazing).
I for one thing it's LEAGUES better… when the theme song started I was in awe... stairing at the tv... so happy I was almost in TEARS because it wasn't the shitty 'gum gum rap' (sorry you guys who loved that pos wanna be theme song). I don't care if Vic voiced Edward Elric... he can sing, and it sounded SO refreshing ;_;
Then we get to hear the voices... I dunno why but after reading a bit of peoples comments it just irks me that so many people think that they were bad. I was VERY impressed and happy with what I heard... I honestly couldn't be ANY more happy with them.
Also, I heard Masira... and just about DIED from happiness!! I saw people didn't like his voice but I thought it was SO GOOD!!!!! He had such a wonderful gruff voice... I can't help what I like heh ^^ I liked it!
However the character I liked the most was Usopp... I've been reading people saying 'well he'll sound just like Krillian!' but guess what!??? he DOESN'T!! To me... it sounded just how Usopp should sound in translation... he was GREAT it was like a bite of heaven...!!!! Also, I LOVED everyone elses voices just as much and was happy to hear Robin and when the preview played I nearly SHIT myself cause they showed BUGGY EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! I wanna hear him so badly!!!
also, people keep saying 'well voices usually get better as the series goes along'. I think they were all WONDERUFLLY AMAZINGLY AWEsOME so if that's the case... then t hey'l just get EVEN better and DEAR GOD I can't WAIT for next week! ^____^
thank god for FUNimation!
