    Eng dubs were absolutely horrible, but worst has to be Kitsune's voice. Southern accent in anime series??!! :rolleyes:

    i read somewhere that she has that accent because she comes from Osaka. I guess they speak like that there.

    The English Dubs suck big time. They will never make an impression on me...:)

    And yes, Kistune has a southern voice accent, the Osaka accent :)

    Kitsune was supposed to have a "country" accent, this was the easiest ways for Western audiences to understand that.

    Here is the answer to jindo's question, I thought Keitaro's English voice sounded somewhat kiddish, Naru's voice sounded weird(can't explain it though) and I agree with Nephilim_X about Kistune's southern accent thing.

    The reason that she has a sourthern accent is because the Osaka accent is one that is rugged so ofter in Dubs it is either sourthern or Brooklyn

    The only voiceover I give credit to is Su- (Wendee Lee) She's pretty talented.

    I hate Naru's voice because it sounds fake. Bad acting.
    Keitaro's voice makes him seem like he has some kind of nasal problem. I think they overdid it with the nerdy voice.
    Kitsune, of course, is really obnoxious. I don't care if she's from Osaka, I'd rather hear her speak regular than that horrid southern accent!

    I totally agree

    Kitsune and Sue have perhaps the worst voice overs ever!!! But I have to admit they did sound pretty funny, so I enjoyed it, although it became impossible to take them seriously.

    Su had a really bad sounding voice, which made it really bad cuz shes really like my favorite character. Keitare sounded so nerdy it was kind of funny. but i liked the voices i had in my head from reading the manga.

    I liked the voices I had in my head from watching the subs.

    The dub was horrifying. It made me cringe to hear them. What's the point of watching if it makes me squirm?

    I was watching the Christmas movie with a friend of mine this past weekend. He's a hardcore dub fan. Since he was the guest, I put the thing on dubbed. Halfway through the opening scene, he insisted that I restart the film with the Japanese cast instead. That was the only dubbed Love Hina I've ever had the displeasure of seeing.
    Based on that scene, however (which only includes Keitaro, Naru and Mutsumi, for those of you who haven't seen it), I am inclined to say that Keitaro has a terrible voice and disinclined to see any redeeming qualities in the dub at all. Terrible, just terrible.

    Well, i hate the english dub.

    I like the manga better because the voice is always in your imagination so they can sound good.

    But worst was Kitsunes, i cant believe they gave her a Texan sounding accent in a japanese anime!
