Yeesh, I'm lucky I got into the series late. The Ocean dub is... all washed up.

Okay, what the fuck is Buu cracking when he cracks his neck?

Also, holy cow, Ocean Dub Buu Saga.

Super Buu acts and sounds like he has Tourette's Syndrome in that scene.

PRODUUUUUUCE!!!! *cracks neck* PRODUUUUUUUUCE!!!!

Also I kinda like that voice.

The Ox-King and Chi-chi sound awful and Bulma doesn't sound 40. And is that Miroku as Goku?

I'm not sure that's how Tourette's Syndrome works.

Also, yeah, how does Buu crack his neck, let alone multiple times?

[up] Not work how? Because Tourette's Syndrome is characterized by having tics.

I was talking about the neck-cracking and the yelling at the same time.

Although the yelling was kind of a joke. And he just looks like he has Tourette's not that he actually does.

It says a lot about the Dragon Ball anime's pacing when I'm watching the video and thinking "jeez, I could just cut this down to half it's length if I removed most of Buu constantly cracking his neck and saying 'produce'".

Remember: Buu's body is made of whatever Buu says it is. He probably made himself some bones just so he can break them and make that badass noise.

He's forcibly snapping whatever makes up his neck together.

I figured he was cracking air pockets.

I can identify with Buu, though, because I too am a habitual neck cracker. I am also an 8-foot tall bubblegum creature, but I don't really feel any connection on that level.

No see, Buu actually has an entire skeletal structure, he can just liquify it on command.

Is it weird that the Ocean dub got much better? It's still bad but now it's just on the precipice of bad.

Like, if they put out a box set of the entire DBZ Series exclusively with the Ocean Dub, I would probably buy it for the novelty of it.

[up][up] really? I think it got worse.

I mean this scene in the Saiyan Saga is still much better than the Japanese or the Funi version.

Maybe it's the nostalgia speaking but Ocean's Vegeta sounds like he's cracking. Also the atmospheric music.
