I wonder what they're gonna do about Jiraiya, aka Ero Sennin o.o; Mess about with that too much and much of the comedy's gonna be killed.. Gonna have to wait SOME time to find that out..
In terms of voices I'm more worried about what they pick for Rock Lee, Gai, Shikamaru and Jiraiya. Still, whatever happens, happens. I don't -have- to watch the dub.

It took awhile to get used to the English voices though, after watching it in Japanese for two years. It was as if my mind rejected it for a few minutes... it was kinda weird but cool. XD
Holy Crap, the same thing Just happened to me...
It's like a massive brain fart or something.

Sasuke is pronounced SAUCEKAY?
that's really really weird.
Eh, not really. Technically you'd look at it as "sah-su-keh" but the "su" is so short it's basically an s sound (sah-s'-keh). As with Naruto and Sakura as shown above, English tends to put the emphasis on the middle syllable, while in Japanese they're about equal.
i guess i'll have to get used to it.
did anyone notice during one of the commercials, when it said "and now back to Naruto" you hear a clip of Kakashi's voice?
it's not bad at all. it really fits him.
If they're going to cut any episodes out of this dub, PLEASE PLEASE let it be from the arc where the series turned into Dragon Ball for, like, 60 episodes.
That went on WAY too long.
You mean where they went to Tea Country?

You mean the Chuunin exams?
Freaking yeah o_o; The written part could have been done in one episode, the training in the forest could have been done in three, MAYBE four. And the one-on-one matches took far too long..... ARGH. By about episode 75, I got bored and decided to stop 'cause it just kept going on and on and on.... @_@;;
I can't wait to hear Kakashi's voice ^^ He's one of my favorite characters. (Iruka's made me sad.... his voice actor could have been much better. ;.; )

>:O You wanna get rid of the Rock Lee and Gaara fight? The Naruto and Neji one? Trying not to spoil... The opening part of the 3rd exam was the bit that dragged the most, the forest of death was just there to explain part of Orochimaru's intention, and to make Sasuke recognise Naruto.
Them going along with Kabuto was a bit long... then there's that training bit between 2nd and 3rd exams where they first introduce Ero Sennin (^_^). The sand nin, sound nin, Gaara, bit of Hyuuga history and some un-necesaary flashbacks later and you have an arc (If anything annoys me truly about that show, it's the overkillness of the flashbacks)
Point being, there's a lot of stuff that they put in there.. o_O It wasn't precisly Dragonball's "make one fight last for 20 episodes" deal.
Personally speaking I wouldn't mind missing is Sakura's... >_> That fight was just *slapslapFLASHBACKslapREMINISCEslapDONTGOEASYONMELOLslapslapflashbackslap*
where are you guys getting this from?
The information on the later episodes?
Some diehard Naruto fans (like myself) have imported DVDs or downloaded episodes from later in the series ^^;
Unless you're talking about something else, then I'll shut up.
~Shadowed Spirit Sage
Plus, there's the wonder that is Wikipedia (is currently writing a Naruto story, so research needed to be done!).
Diehard Naruto Fan I be at current. c_C; Waiting to see episodes 128 to the most recent.
And when I have the time, Ultra, I may just look at your fanfic. o_O; Good gravy to read a Naruto fanfic that ISN'T a homosexual gangbang would be friggin refreshing, dude.
Ewww.
caught last night's episode. Along with Full metal alchemist! (BOOYAH!)
it was allright, my favorite part was Kakashi saying Naruto's milk was expired.
EXPIRED DAIRY PRODUCTS.
Caught the new episode of FMA too. Their teacher is scary. C.C
(And Weirdo, links to my story are in my signature!)
I liked saturday's episode of Naruto, took me a while to get used to Sasuke's voice... although they did cut out one of the most disturbing bits of imagery I'ever seen:
Also saw the commercial for "Bo Bo BoBobobobobo" or whatever the title is... quite frankly the weirdest ideas I've ever seen for anime or anything for that matter. A guy who attacks using his nose hair has to be one tough cookie though...
Yah. That one scene spawned the entire NaruSasu yaoi fanfiction genre (one author on FFNet, dave-d, has a few fanfics showcasing Naruto's highly opinionated thoughts on NaruSasu fiction. 
).
Personally, I don't know how anyone could interpret that for anything other than an accident. I mean, Naruto was bumped into Sasuke, and they both gagged.

I am so looking forward to that show.

Any excuse fans can get to do a boy/boy relationship will do...
I caught part of an episode of Naruto but I dunno. I'll have to see a full one to see if it's worth watching...(I rarely watch cartoons)
Bobobo ROCKS >=D He could whoop anyone with his nosehairs..
Sexiest. Afro. EVER.
Not only that, but he has a dancing pig in his afro, and a partner who's mady of CANDY! And his enemies make people bald by pulling their hair out! How can you beat THAT?!
SUPER FIST OF THE NOSEHAIR STRANGLE!!!!!!
Papa Rocks: how'd you like our technique?
Bald empire guy: when did you use the shuriken?
(an excerpt from Shonen Jump's preview of BoboBo-BoBo-BoBo.)
Just saw the preview.
Good Lord, that was hilarious. XD
i thought it was really weird...

Second that (just from commercials).
I wanna see how they handle the underpants duck. :0 Is it a duck, or is it a pair of pants!? WE DON'T KNOW!
They edited Naruto on the part where he accedently kisses Sasuke in episode 3. Funniest part in that whole episode and they cut it with a sound effect. They are evil, and I refuse to watch more. Some American equal rights if you know what I mean. 
(Although I do agree that the dubbed version isn't that bad. So long as my friends have the originals on their computer I have NOTHING to complain about.)
...refusing to watch the dub again...because of ONE edited scene?
If that were the mindset of everyone else, then all anime income into the US would die.
rofl anime fans are funny
Anyway, I've been keeping up with the dub so far. It's alright. Better than a lot of anime I've seen, and that's including "straight-from-Japan" series' with subtitles.
The way Naruto always says "Believe it!" bugs the crap out of me, though.
For an anime? I'd give it 4/5, since I usually give most anime about 2/5. As an overall TV show? 6/10. Still needs improvement.
agreed, the "believe it!" thing is overly annoying.
You mean he doesn't say "believe it!" all the time in the Japan original?
*just saw how they handled the underpants duck* O__o; The thing is certainly sugestive...especially when you first see the guy who is wearing it hiding behind the tree crouched down...one of many "*mock spits out non-exisiting drink* OMG can they do that??? O__o;;;" that I have done when watching toonami recently.
Others came when I was watching the new teen titans episodes.
Saying Beast Boy's real name of Garfield right out without any hints...and that the other titans didn't know his real name ahead of time...then like a minute later when all the TT universe villans gathered... (the Puppet King not all de-magicy and out of his Titans Tower glass prison, a lot of loner villians who I thought wouldn't work as a group, Mad Mod not old again (did he steal some random persons youth?) that rocker who only appeared in that Postopia short, Slade's Butler, Kitty (who I wished was by now like a catgirl since her father seems to be a gene mutationalist smart scientist that Killer Moth is...it would have suit her
and actually be a threat to the Titans...especially Starfire XD), I believe I saw the new Red X in there as well but he's not the master plan kind of guy, more HIVE Academy students and countless others) ...and then the episode right after that one when I find out that Hotspot is black...
All these are not like saying their approach was bad, but it just suprised me greatly that's all.
