watchmojo.com and today we’re counting
down our picks for the top ten
hilariously bad anime dubs so you dodged
my gay bulges fatal blow what did you
say before we begin we publish new
videos every day
so be sure to subscribe for more great
content for this list we’ll be looking
at English dubs that turned out so
poorly that they ended up becoming
comedy gold as a result hey there what
are you kids doing here at school over
go home you silly no thanks
keep in mind we won’t be including anime
that were intentionally dubbed in this
way for a similar effect so as much as
it pains us don’t expect to see ghost
stories on here and the same goes for
the poor kids dub of one piece because
that didn’t make us laugh as much as it
we’re on the border of actually
recommending this one not for its plot
action characters or anything concrete
like that but just for the sheer amounts
of kissing the English voice actors do
shut the fuck up
self-righteous moralizing commies
scumbag there’s an f-bomb in every other
scene not to mention all the colorful
stuff that Lucifer seems to spew and
using as psychic powers you won’t find
any gritty cop drama here but in
exchange you’ll hear every kind of 90s
anime cliche you could ever want kudos
to the voice actors for well somewhat
trying at least they tickled our funny
bones I don’t know
number 9 Quinn saga my goddess is going
and you thought all the legitimately
terrible dubbing came way before the
2000s but nope some slip through the
cracks we’re not sure he’s to blame for
the direction of the show but we’ve
never seen a dub of modern fantasy anime
that was this lazy if the actors don’t
sound bored they sound confused as hell
I got myself close to Cass bones
right-hand man Dallas and the perfect
example of that is when the character
Malia’s starts singing not that you can
tell over how off-key it is but the dub
is so uncoordinated that he eventually
starts singing what’s supposed to be an
inner monologue but
[Music]
I were my brother
[Music]
number eight Speed Racer what are you
doing here to be practicing there are
the classics you can’t really hate on
this one given the state of English
dubbing back then but that doesn’t mean
it still isn’t one of the worst ones out
there quickly hang on
due to leaving the original translation
is relatively untouched the voice actors
seem like they’re constantly in a rush
to pack in as much dialogue into a scene
as possible regardless of timing or
emotion as a result the characters sound
beyond unnatural but oh so hilarious we
can’t get enough of those signature
exclamations number seven Transformers
the Headmaster’s my name is thick Scott
oh yeah now you know who I am
we’re not gonna say that the original
transformers canteen was the pinnacle of
western dubbing but it was still an
awesome show and had a solid cast that
was obviously having fun yeah well we’re
not sure what Omni productions was
trying to do but they ended up making a
dub beyond the pale of poor Galvatron
don’t count your chickens before they
hatch as a Japanese only sequel to the
original series it never saw an American
release only shown in Malaysia kind of a
blessing since they’re so bad they
barely ever correctly pronounce any of
the Transformers names correctly
throughout the entire series Fortress
Maximus is unable to enlarge because he
has used up his powers to operate on
spawn number six Voltron and they wanna
fire robeast gladiators could easily
defeat him well we’re sure many Voltron
fans look back on this series fondly it
can’t be denied that the voice work was
definitely more miss than hit on the one
hand you have half the cast who have all
the acting chops of cardboard we’re
looking at you Keith and on the other
you have those who are obviously trying
but still end up making their characters
voices overblown you up there come down
alright okay I’m down your high and
mighty majesty the biggest casualty in
this regard would of course be Pidge his
voice is sort of like an audio
equivalent of a train wreck it’s so
horrible but you just can’t say in a way
that bridge is a real beauty nothing
could be as beautiful as the
legend behind it number five devil man
OVA z– oh thanks
I don’t suppose we’ll be any problem if
a cure is round there as well no I guess
you’ll be okay by the dub for devil man
crybaby turned out pretty damn good
probably thanks to all that Netflix
money but we couldn’t help but be
reminded of the dub for the original
anime and what have you get the knife
for because I’m in terrible danger but
you could easily hurt someone that’s the
idea it’s so stilted in its delivery so
lacking in emotion every word exchanged
by Akira and Ryo in these OVA siz so bad
that it’s almost poetic especially when
it comes to the cursing is it okay for
me to wear my shoes in here I don’t give
a shit we don’t know about you but the
only people who seem to be possessed by
demons of the voice actors they’re
giving it a mean 40% number for some of
the city audio 808 fortunately I have to
tell you they’re also highly illegal so
you could be looking at a stiff sentence
it’s your typical 90s sci-fi anime
filled with wannabe badasses plenty of
flying cars the occasional hot girl
earned dialogue so bizarre and cheesy it
wouldn’t even make it into a
Schwarzenegger movie I don’t want to
kill you but it seems I haven’t much
choice however we decided to include it
for a single line of delivery one that
might just contain the greatest insult
ever heard in anime we’re honestly not
sure what made us laugh harder the
rebuttal that the character Benton
dishes out all the way says it either
way it cracks us up every time get last
you wouldn’t recognize a goddamn vampire
if one jumped up and bit you on the end
of your fucking dick
number three Ghazis wink my necklace is
rattling I wonder could it be the
territory shrine now we’re reaching the
bottom of the barrel infamous for its
horrendous dub to the point where the
translation is at times nonsensical
Ghazis wing is so legendary for its
awfulness the even other voice actors
love to take the piss out of it you are
holy warrior why is it that you don’t
fight like one I never said I was a holy
warrior
as you might have guessed the delivery
of every single line never comes across
as believable not helped by the fact
that the main character constantly sound
surprised
the whole thing is one big beautiful
failure and for assigns bells and
prayers number to Bible black do you
know what happened to Ahmadi I went to
thank her but her mom says she’s shut
herself in her room I don’t know what
happened to her that’s right people
after so many years a hentai has finally
managed to make it into a top-10 rejoice
hi this is Ahmadi
how are you you kike granted this is
just a stand-in for every hentai out
there that’s ever been dubbed given how
both the characters and performances
always end up sucking in some way in
did they literally pull strangers off
the streets or read lines even the moans
aren’t convincing be honest you started
watching this for the sex but ended up
staying to see just how much worse the
acting could get all of a sudden
highschool DxD sounds like Shakespeare I
heard that all the members died after
the ceremony all the members of the club
died
number one Dragon Ball Z big green dub
[Music]
let that child along we have no idea
what everyone was smoking behind the
scenes but by God did they leave us with
the greatest piece of animated trash we
[Applause]
over the course of 11 movies this dub
company somehow managed to get
everything about the draggable name
wrong even more so than GT every attack
is the cow mija mija the syntax is
messed up in places Super Saiyans are
super warriors they even refer to pick
low as big greener if anything this
unholy dub was the original abridged
series
total
