General Anime/Manga/Otaku Thread
I'm really confident that I'm watching the uncut version of Dragon Ball, but sometimes you can just tell that something got lost during translation when the dialogue is wonky.

I don't know if it was due to the time period of when it was dubbed, but even in the uncut English version they gave General Blue a really foppish voice, and yet decided to rework any dialogue so as not to outright say he's gay. Bulma tries telling him she's a man at one point to try and seduce him in order to save Krillian, but in the dub they had her say she was a "Sumo wrestler", which made no sense.

What really tipped me off is when the animation made it clear that Blue was super attracted to a little kid (he even tries to kiss him), but the dialogue had him talking about how he's mistaking this kid for his long lost brother Samuel. It was just too obvious by what was going on that it didn't fit.

I understand implying General Blue is a pedophile could be an issue, but it's weird that they altered his scene with Bulma. Too bad they can't go back and re-voice the scenes to make them true to the original. If Garter Belt can clearly be attracted to Brief and be a pedophile priest, then General Blue shouldn't be a problem nowadays.
