Eh, she's kinda raspy, but it's not bad. As long as the lines are not corny, that's what concerns me.

 

[*Gaara*]

matt damon is going to voice orochimaru=P haha

 

[DMW]

Man im not gonna watch the english version,there willl be no violence,no minor swearing.And on top of that Matt damon is doing orochimaru's voice,could this get any worse.

 

[SailorAlea]

Matt Damon is obviously not doing his voice.

 

[Chakra-X]

Alright....Just saw a small clip of the english Naruto on CartoonNetwork..The voice ain't too bad, but the announcer pronounced it "nua-RUU-doe", which could either be the announcers bad, or thats how it will be pronounced in the dub.

 

[Zeonix]

Ugh...the woman playing Naruto has an annoying voice -_-. To make matters worse, shes going to have to yell a lot throughout the anime.

 

[Marvin]

Alright....Just saw a small clip of the english Naruto on CartoonNetwork.

I wonder, if it's on Internet also.
I dunno what to say, im still gonna watch it/dl it.

NARUTO IS DOOMED!!!

That sounded so much like a 5-year old gohan-ish character...what a crap voice. They should've taken someone who sounded a bit more mature, but her voice...well is just pure crap for Naruto.
Nah I'm sticking to the good old subbed episodes as long as the fan-subbers keep subbing them. =\

 

[Marvin]

Haha!, this totaly made my day.

[LaHeen]

She dosnt sound that bad, I wouldnt really mind listening to her as naruto

 

[Iyce Da Kidd]

isn't she the girl who played as goku in his db days?

prepare for naruto sounding like a mixture between young gohan and goku

 

[Sicron]

By the way, Naruto is now officialy called Na-roo-to, just heared another commercial where they also called it Narooto. And there was also a 1 second record of naruto saying something, sounded rather stupid.

 

[LaHeen]

Ive always called it na-roo-to, how do you pronounce it properly? >_<

 

[Jesus]

Ive always called it na-roo-to, how do you pronounce it properly? >_<

exactly, thats how it looks like it should be pronounced

 

[TehMuffinMan]

i think the jap version pronounced it as Naru-to, spoken like narrow toe :0

 

[Draylock1]

I call it na-roo-to.

 

[Chakra-X]

I always said "Nah-ruh-toe", cuz thats how they say it, except its like "Nah-La-toe". Either way it is said, I thinkthe stress is on the NA part and not the Ruh/roo part.

 

[Suh Dude]

What the heck??? She sounds like irish. I don't think it fits naruto lol...

 

[Super Veggeto]

Hummm =o..
i dunno...it's weird..
probably cause we're not used to it or something but...i know im sticking to the jap dub.
ill have to watch a few episodes in english though, just out of curiousity... =P
