Throughout my whole childhood I thought Babidi was a woman.
...and thinking back I have no idea why.
@fred: Oh, no one in Brazil ever misstook Freeza for a woman, the dub gave him one hell of a sexy baritone.
We gave Frieza an old lady voice, which did not help with the gender ambiguity. Especially since that old lady voice, later on, became specifically associated with the decidedly female Genkai of Yu Yu Hakusho.
Fun fact from the recent interviews: before LittleKuriboh nailed his Frieza audition (which was supposed to be a Ginyu audition), Lanipator was going to play Frieza using the Genkai voice he used for Yu Yu Hakusho Abridged.
Bardock: Father of Goku Abridged plays with that particular casting gag for Frieza's first ever appearance in the Abridged series. Lani does his Genkai for Frieza before Frieza coughs and switches to LittleKuriboh's interpretation. Something in his throat, he explains.

My Tumblr. Currently side-by-side liveblogging Digimon Adventure, sub vs dub.Yeah, TFS and Funimation have a great relationship, unfortunately cuz Toei is a bunch of scumbags they've blacklisted the group from working with Funimation on anything Dragon Ball related, hence why in Kai the take where TFS was used to voice the characters in Mr. Satan's version of the Cell Games wasn't used.
Random thought:
Do we know if Toriyama has commented on Abridged in anyway? We know that it was Evolution that brought him back to the series (via angering him so much he started up again to prevent that movie from shaping people's opinions on DB for years to come), but I'm wondering if he's ever said anything about TFS and their work.
Considering he seems massively detached from the regular anime version at times (I've often gotten the impression he doesn't bother to watch it, often creates his own version of what few ideas they come up with, and is now apparently not saying anything to them while they wait for the script fro the next movie) it wouldn't surprise me if wasn't aware of it, or just didn't care.x
I feel like we've talked about this before, but I can't really remember what was said.
One Strip! One Strip!So official:
Short Z are still a thing.
I don't know if they said anything about it beforehand, but either way, now you know.
They did say that they'd still be doing shortZ before...
Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.I'm not sure how that'll change what I said...

Yeah Kaizer Neko straight up said that when they announced DBZA was over. This is old news.
