I agree. Hong Kong and Taiwanese dubs are pretty good. Much better than English dubs I find.

They are not bad but what is a Hong Kong dub?  Like in Cantonese?  

Yeah Cantonese dubs. Let's see, classics I watched in Cantonese back in the late 80's to early 90's. Dragonball, Saint Seiya, Maison Ikkoku, Ranma, Touch, City Hunter, Captain Tsubasa, Nausicaa, Laputa, Totoro. These are the big names, very popular in Hong Kong at the time.

Taiwanese dubs in Mandarin in the early to mid 80's. SDF Macross, Science Ninja Team Gatchaman, Mospeada, Ganba no Boken, Rose of Versailles and many Gattai type super robot series (The names I can't remember, need to search anidb). I was only a baby way back then in Taiwan. But memories of me and my sisters all gathered round the TV catching all these shows remain pretty vivid in my head. Back then televisions didn't even have remotes.  :P

I agree. Hong Kong and Taiwanese dubs are pretty good. Much better than English dubs I find.

I agree.

Might want to add that I watched NGE in Cantonese. Then swapped to Japanese and was like, "OMFG WTF IS THIS EAR CANCER?????" The chars didn't sound right at all.

Found this for you. NGE opening in Cantonese lol.

Dragonball Z
Gundam Wing
Sailor Moon
Tenchi Muyo/Universe/Tokyo
Pokemon
Beyblade
Ultimate Muscle (lol)
Outlaw Star
Cowboy Bebop


Didn't even know what "anime" was when i watched them mind you, since i only started anime knowing what it is 3 years ago. Anyone around my age in the UK probably saw them on Toonami in the early 2000s

The above, minus ultimate muscle and outlaw star, plus Escaflowne.
There must a be a reason for tanking things. And all must be in certain balance.
But what that balance is, must depend only on you, nobody else.

Interesting, might as well make a topic about Anime OP songs in different languages.

.
From my childhood, in the magical country of Oosaa, I can add to the Astro Boy level of classics that I have only been able to find dubbed into the native language; the original Japanese seems to have been lost or never was:

 - Kimba
 - Speed Racer

And, I'd about sell my left nut to watch those in Japanese with subs.

There was also Cyborg 009, but that is (thankfully) available in Japanese.

We have Kimba and Speed Racer too.

Never listened to the OP in Canto.

But if you find a clip of Shinji speaking, compare to Japanese and you'd agree in a moment the Canto voice actor is far superior a choice to the Japanese one. Tone wise to char personality etc.

For Canto dubbed anime I watched when younger....

- Doraemon
- Ghibli
- Mazinger
- Ranma
- NGE (actually bought the series on VCD)
- Keroro

I managed to find these two clips. Evangelion in 14 languages.

I have to say, the Korean VA who did Rei sounded really good in the second clip. She stood out the most for me. Very expressive. Although a little off character considering Rei is not exactly the most expressive.

First link...

At least Shinji sounds male in the Canto and Korean versions. Mandarin and Japanese sound like girls...

The only anime that I've enjoyed in Finnish.

The fact that Tanoshii Moomin Ikka series they broadcast here is japanese made was a big shock, thought it was Finnish :o Yeah, I know the writer is Finnish.

And i friggin` LOVED "Tanoshii Moomin Ikka" When i was a kid ;D

We had decent dubs for most shows back in the 80's 90's. Some of them are actually better than Japanese.
The quality and the voice acting gotten week over the years though.
