Oh the horrendous dialog that will follow...
"Today on NUHROOTOE & Friends! 'Nuhrootoe' and 'soccer-ah' go to find their best friend for life 'sause-su-kei' but he has been doing bad things with the evil fiends 'A-cat-sooki'! With their teacher 'kuhkaahshee' they set out to the unknown magical nehnjuh lands to find their friend!
haha mispronounciations and edits galore.
I stopped watching naruto and bleach long ago. The Manga's pretty cool actually, I'd rather read it for 10 min than watch a 23 min episode
Dude, the voices are the EXACT same as before.
Let me explain to you how anime on tv works. A dubbing company, in this case, Viz Media, licenses a show from Japan, in this case Naruto. They now have control of distribution rights in North America. They then dub it and release it on dvd in select stores. The dubbing company can put their show on tv, if they negotiate a deal with a tv network. Any edits or dialogue is decided entirely by the dubbing company.
Chances are, they won't edit shit. Disney are some greedy bastards, but smart enough businessmen to know that with the fall of Cartoon Network, there's a market of Naruto fans (I'm talking about the young kids who don't know about subs and the internet) thirsty for their orange ninja. Any edits could jeopardize their hold, and thus threaten their wallets.
This isn't 4kids, man. You gotta realize that.
And besides, those pronunciations are all correct.
