...You'd better be joking about that Lee/Australian thing.
or if you're not, it better not be a FULL ON australian accent...

What, is 'yosh' or the 'springtime of youth' going to be replaced by 'Throw anothah onion on'na barbie'? Ugh...
That probably means Gai will be Aussie too. Fucking heck. They're just gonna fuck around with Kishi's shit... Kishi didn't intend for Lee to be Aussie- he's chinese, like Bruce Lee (or so it seems..).
The reference to bruce lee is tainted ;-;
Well... Oh well, I guess, but will a drunkn/enraged Aussie be as funny as a Drunken/enraged Chinese person? I pray for the sanctity of episode 124... :(

Edit:

Waffles, a lot of people are about to be offended by that stuff you put. -_-; Very few british people have that accent anymore. In my experience, the british accent is generally 'rougher' nowadays(if that makes sense)...

Just specutlating.

nearly every supposidly high rank, stuck up character from any anime ends up with a british accent once dubbed. (i.e. Lyserg of Shaman King)

So yeah, could sasuke be next? Kind of a longshot, but just thinking.

:sasuke + Britten= Death.
That's only 1...I can't think of any other characters like that.

And not only would it not fit his character at all, Yuri Lowenthal isn't British

Don't forget Austrailian Kiba

Peliqua

09-13-2005, 05:00 PM

Wait, is it Aussie Kiba or Aussie Lee?
Aussia Kiba is SO appropriate! XD!!!

Aussies sound too cool to be Lee, is my main idea... Lee has to sound geeky and impossibly polite, like he is in Japanese...

09-13-2005, 05:03 PM

I don't think Sasuke will be british, just drippings with angst.

Just a thought, if people think Sakura's voice is annoying, then Viz has done a good job. lol. No Sakura hate, just an observation.

Ami

09-13-2005, 05:04 PM

If he talked british, it would be way better than some german dubbing him....
like they did in ygo...o.o

organizedcrime

09-13-2005, 05:34 PM

Hmm, I would enjoy a british Sasuke, but then the "opinionaters" would go nuts.

Ami

09-13-2005, 05:41 PM

hmmm....
the only difference that americans and brirish people are they have a accent....
and they spell some words differently

i dont see that would be a big problem for dubbing a naruto character....

Procyon

09-13-2005, 05:57 PM

Why would someone have a British accent in this kind of show? In the previews, he didn't seem to have one....

Ami

09-13-2005, 05:58 PM

I know....I didnt notice any british accents in the preview....

british sasuke would suck, nevertheless,the original Japanese voices will always sound the best

I agree with you...a British Sasuke would sound odd...

However, adjusting to the English voices will take some time for me; doesn't matter how good the dubbed voice is, it'll still take time to get used to. :oh

Stevo-kun

09-13-2005, 08:11 PM

Even though I am British, I would say it might not suit Sasuke to have a British accent, but then again, it might, I wouldn't rule it out completely, aslong as he doesn't get one of those annoying voices :S

Maleficent

09-13-2005, 08:18 PM

It would certainly be unfortunate if they stuck a British accent on Sasuke... but I think that's worst-case-scenario at this point.

In the episode three clip, it doesn't sound like he has one. Yet.

Dub Lyserg doesn't have a brittish accent? Which is kinda funny since he's british to begin with.
Ren got the accent, and he's chinese! :P

(Sorry for being Shaman King-ish XD)

I doubt Sasuke would have a british accent, he doesn't have the look....

n8dogg

09-13-2005, 09:32 PM

It's impossible. The British accent is ALWAYS held for characters of high authority or command. Americans are fairly stereotypical that way.

No, Sasuke will sound like a 30 year old guy who listens to Dashboard Confessional, just like the Japanese dub.

Shadow of the Lotus

09-13-2005, 09:33 PM

*shrug* After listening to a preview of episode three, in which you can briefly hear Sasuke's voice, I personally am reminded of Shadow from the "Sonic adventure 2" game. It sounded pretty darn similar to me atleast, though less cheesy. I think that could work, though it might get a bit cliche.

Ami

09-13-2005, 09:35 PM

I have now found out that Sasuke in the preview dont sound like some british guy...

kakoishii

09-13-2005, 10:21 PM

uhh...I'm pretty sure the guy pretty much meant it would be funny or more less maybe weird if Sasuke turned out to have a cliched british accent though I'm positive he wasn't serious.

The fact that this post exists makes me sad. From what I've heard Yuri is a good VA. Where did "British" accent come from?

And why does it matter? Either way it's not going to be the same as a Japanese voice so it's really up in the air.

British Sasuke...*snort* I don't think so. Would be amusing though if it happened. I'd sure laugh. Me and my friend did something like this "accent discussion". Except with the manga, volume 1. We read it out loud, and we gave everyone stupid accents. Only finished chapter one though. We still need to work on the rest of volume one though. :P

Ah, you mean the 'Stick up arse' accent. There's far too much of that going around, but yes, I assume Nigel- I mean Neji -will get *that* accent.

Well we all have to remember, at the beginning of the Japanese show the voices weren't as brilliant as they are now, maybe over time, the voice actors will all grow into their parts and sound perfectly natural.

And a british Sasuke would be death unless it was Patrick Stewart, he's the only one who could make it work.

On Topic note: Mabey if he sounded like Monty Python or something, it would be kind of cool, but other than that, nah... (You just can't NOT laugh when you replace Sasuke's voice with John Clese (SP?!?@!), it's gold!)

Heh, it will die eventually..... But anyway, don't worry, it's not stereotypical to think something sounds sophisticated, it would be sterotypical to think all british people 'were' sophisticated or something (example; whenever I hear somone talk with a british accent, i immediately assume their a James Bond type spy...), but how they sound is all opinion. And about the British Sasuke....will he be getting a fan club as well...? He seems popular XD

Dawn the White Knight

09-17-2005, 09:08 AM

Sasuke won't British. Orochimaru will. Because as we all know from every movie or tv show with a villain in it, the British are always the villians. Or spies. Or Royalty. We have pretty limited career options all things considered.

I'm pretty sure the v/a who is doing Sasuke has never done a "British" role before, so I think we're in the clear.

And a Chinese Ren would be so funny because it would be such a rascist stereotype.

Neji would be cool if they gave him one of those 'dark' british accents (dont ask for examples, I don't have em!). I don't think it will work with Sasuke though, he has too many lines to keep the feel intact. Mabey they'll make Gai sound like Grounds Keeper Willie. That would rock XD.

Hmm that would be hot if Sasuke had a British accent. It would totally remind me of Jude Law! *meooowwwww* :hearts:laugh I think my sister would agree with you, if she watched/read Naruto and finds Sasuke as hot as I think she would.

But yeah, they usually don't give a character who's been there the entire time a different accent.

It's usually the 'transfer student' (Bakura, "Julian", etc.) so maybe Gaara'll have an accent. :blink Or Kabuto: he has silver hair after all. And he doesn't really come from Konoha...

mdd4696

09-17-2005, 10:54 PM

So far everyone has an American accent... why would Lee have a different one?

Although, I do think it would be more entertaining with all the different accents...

Guy Gardner

09-17-2005, 11:00 PM

Lee would have a different one because that is his character. He, Gai, and Tenten will likely have a bit more 'Oriental' (I dunno which country, exactly) accents because their characters represent stereotypes (Kung-Fu and all that jazz).

So drop it.

I doubt anyone in the show will have an accent. I personally think its better when dubs try to avoid this unless its appropriate for the character.

Ammanas

11-24-2005, 08:37 AM

rofl at the idea of lee having an australian accent, that'd be completely pointless, he;s from konoha so why have his accent different to everyone elses.

I could see accents differ on people from other villages though...well if i watched the dub i could
