I hope this is okay, it's mah first one.

So yeah, can't wait for this to air tomorrow!

We finally get to see
Ursula and her plusle/minun!
 
Dub review threads really shouldn't be posted until about an hour before showtime at the earliest.

I'll re-open this thread once we get closer to the actual airtime.
 
Nice job with the Dee-Dee.

Sounds like we got the Narrator as the new voice for Mr. Contesta.

EDIT: And Jigglypuff!!!

Not... exactly. The tl;dr is Mike Pollock is Contesta's voice actor again. He was his voice actor in the 4Kids dub.

Now let us have no more discussion on the subject of voice actors now that that has been cleared up.

Right right, Dr. Eggman, Pluto/Charon and all of that... My main memory of him is as the take-over Narrator in AG, so that's how I always identify him.

EDIT: My big point was that it was changed from Craig Blair... and I'd love to know the politics behind it.
 
Wow, I really REALLY thought they would have trouble translating this ep, but they did a pretty good job.

Ursula seemed less obnoxious in this ep than she did in her debut, though that's not necessarily a bad thing.

Also, the final jump out of Plusle and Minun had me laughing.
 
"Diamond Dandruff?"

That's...actually a lot better than anything I would have been able to come up with. I'm impressed.
 
Ha, Diamond Dandruff. That's a lot better than 'Pikari' imo, sounds like something you'd actually be embarrassed to be called.
 
Well, looks like we were worried about nothing. TPCi pulled themselves out of that hole quite nicely.

Apart from that, what a great episode. It sucks having to wait another week for it to be over, but spreading it out over two weeks certainly does this contest justice. Some great appeals despite the questionable physics behind floating ice. Dawn's pre-school seems to be just as traumatic as Harley's.
 
Did they bother to keep Leona's VA in this ep? Kenny was probably kept since he's a recurring character, but Leona only appeared in one ep on early Season 11 so they might not bother
 
Is it just me, or is Ursula acting way too nice at first? Diamond Dandruff. That's a bit better than I thought they would do. Yeah, Ash would know about being shocked. Oh wow, Jessie always has unique appeals. Floating ice bubbles? Physics went out the window again. A controlled battle appeal. Interesting. Pika Buneary continuity. I haven't realized how long it's been since we've seen that until now. It makes me further wonder if it will be resolved. Pretty good set up.
 
I don't know...the more I think about it, the less fond I am of "Diamond Dandruff." It's certainly clever and all, but it's not the kind of thing you'd imagine a bunch of five year olds calling each other. "Pikari" seems a lot more age appropriate.

Still, I couldn't have done any better myself.

Kenny's definitely his regular actress, I think Leona's voiced by Sarah Natochenny this time, though. Wait for someone who's seen the credits to confirm, though.
 
It's always nice to see Ursula again plus it's nice to finally. Know how Dawn's nickname came to be.
 
I am actually watching the episode right now,, and would like to know if it is against the rules to ask if anyone is recording it? There was a cool commercial I want to see that seems to only air during Pokemon airings.

NOTE: I do not mean to see the episode recorded, that is ok for personal use, I am only asking about a commercial during the break after 10 minutes.
 
Ugh. What an absolutely horrid episode. It's like the writers (or just Zoppi) don't even care that they've completely destroyed the great character development and togetherness that the Rocket-Dan had. Not to mention replacing great music for who knows what reason. But it wasn't just that "Jessie is going to hit us" bs, it also felt like the twerps were mocking her a bit, when that wasn't present at all. Jessie was also rude when she saw that Dawn had passed the appeal round, when at this point she doesn't really insult her anymore.

I fear for how the Grand Festival will be dubbed. I truly, truly do.


I also don't quite like the whole Diamond Dandruff thing. It seems a bit too gross for me, but PCI only had so many options. Makes me wonder who in the world is writing these episode summaries on pokemon.com though. The one for this episode couldn't be more wrong.
