Well, to be honest, Rock Lee isn't a very badass SOUNDING person to begin with. He is always very goofy in his voice but cool in his actions, I wouldn't be surprised if they guy who did the voice for Vash in Trigun does Rock Lee.

Well here is a small clip released by CN.com

I know right off the bat you want to bash it I did too but i sat and watched it a second time and it wasnt as bad.

Naruto somewhat sounds like the original.  They kept the background music from the original so thats a plus for me.

You can tell that the actors arent used to saying Naruto and jutsu though.

i can't stand it... Naruto... WHY IN THE LORDS NAME CAN'T THEY SAY THAT NAME RIGHT?!?!?!?

I don't like Narutos voice... but.. I guess we will see...

They say Naroooto. lol In Japan its basicly Narto because they dont pronounce the U.  Otherwise I'll watch the first two episodes that show back to back on Saturday with an open mind and then critic it later.

There's not much to be said that can't be summed up in a quick kick to the groin of the retards that did the dubbing. Not only are the characters showing almost no emotion in their voices, they also made the characters sound like those from an Inuyasha episode (which I don't like.)

Meh, things are looking Grim. I wish there would be more good dubbing like that in Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust and Cowboy Bebop. I guess many companies in america don't understand the power of voice like the japanese do.

What I am hoping is that they dubbing will get better as the episodes go on... once they get a little better at what they do... if you watch the original Naruto episodes in japanese and the most recent ones... I think the more recent ones sound better.. more comfortable.. but that my just be me

Agreed going into it with an open mind.

[Anonymous]

it's still going to suck

Lol i get the since you guys dont want to test it.  I admit i bashed it to hell before anything was even released about it coming to U.S.  Oh well times changed for me and i dont mind watching it even if it does sound hoaky.


Subbs till the end though.

I tried to watch it with an open mind, however, I was still disappointed. It may be a decent dub, but, when compared to the greatness of the show, they killed it.

I just don't think I could stand seeing Bleach dubbed either. Naruto and Bleach are very japanese themed in both language and setting; I don't think it will be possible to get good enough people to live up to those shows. I just don't like dubs. American voice actors take the "actor" out of voice actor (or lack thereof.)
