The soundtrack and the voices were always the best in the Ocean Dub. I’ll never forget the first time I saw DBZ, I’d never seen another cartoon as intense. I was lucky enough to see episode 1 as my first experience as well and I was completely captivated!
I agree. I was there in the early 90s. Ocean Dub really made DBZ great. There are other 2 animes that captivated me from first watched, Technoman and Space Adventure Cobra. I remember the minute I saw those two animes, I knew they were gonna be great. DBZ by itself is good and is better in Japanese but Ocean Dub gave it a good lift.
Sure just skip to the end of ssj goku vs frieza. Though fans condense it well. Someone also uploaded a 3 hour movie of the saiyan saga which was real good too. And of course dbz kakarot did a good job expediting the buu saga.
Vegeta always thought that Frieza was unbeatable, only reason he went to confront Frieza is because his power boost on Earth and his of frieza becoming immortal, even then vegeta always avoided frieza on namek, until frieza confronted him directly
In Funi and Kai he sounds like a joke despite being one of Freeza’s strongest warriors and being as strong as Vegeta was on Earth. Here he has a voice to match his credentials. I also like that his name is pronounced “cooey” instead of “kwee”. I already know Vegeta is not going lose to someone named “”kwee” but “cooey” makes me consider it.
Yes this was the last time any villains were actively looking for the dragon balls at least in DBZ. Though the dragon balls had their legacy. For instance Dr Gero didn't actively look for them but the Dragonballs did have a part in bringing Goku into conflict with the Red Ribbon army in the first place which would be the genesis of a grudge leading to Dr Geros schemes.
It's interesting, cus in the manga Vegeta doesn't get the scouter back from the doctor where as in the anime he does. But later on in the manga, he puts it on after landing on Namek.
Vegetas pride got in the way. He could have taken on frieza in his first form, but he let him transform into the stronger being that took him down in tears out of cockiness. Valuable less9n.
Cory Howell actually he was just as much powerful maybe even a little less,piccolo in the other hand could have killed feiza in his second form but decided to stare
I think Vegeta knew that Frieza would eventually transform. I don't think it was so much cockiness, but rather Vegeta is an experienced fighter and tactician. If he had any chance of possibly defeating Frieza, it was wiser for him to fight Frieza at his best and possibly defeat him using everything he had rather than wasting a great deal of his own energy fighting a weaker form for Frieza, only for Frieza to break out his more powerful form when Vegeta is fatigued and low on ki. Given the relatively small power boost that Zarbon gained in his transformed state, Vegeta had no way of knowing that Frieza's second form had a power level roughly twice his first form's. And ultimately he had no way of knowing that Frieza actually had three different transformations under his belt that would more than double his power level each time.
@@kleptodahomie9065 I think Frieza could have been defeated in his first form , but allowing someone to transform is what dbz does, similar situation with Cell, who was very beatable before absorbing the androids. And the truth is we've seen Trunks kill first form king cold without allowing him to transform, which used to be just a theory, but it was confirmed by Akira that King cold could also transform.
It’s a saiyan thing to accept the biggest challenge. The saiyan genes in Cell also allowed the Z fighters to power up as much as possible before they faced him.
when they fought the first time I think 1st form frieza push come to shove would have beat vegeta even without the transformation I think frieza did it because vegeta could somewhat challenge in it and he wanted to show off....
amit Gautam that could be said about all the characters that fought Frieza on Namek. It truly was a great saga and My opinion the best out of all Dragon Ball!
Not a fan of kai but gotta say this scene is done better than any of the other dubs. Ocean Dub: Cui: Why don’t you do the smart thing and just give up? you’ll never get those dragonballs. trust me vegeta, frieza will certainly find them first and then destroy the planet namek. Vegeta: I’ll get you frieza! *snatches scouter* on second thought I think I’ll need this Funimation Dub: Cui: Why don’t you do the smart thing and just give up because you will never get those dragonballs. Believe me vegeta, frieza will most certainly find them first and when he does will destroy the planet namek. Vegeta: I can’t give up! *snatches scouter* wait, on second thought I think I’ll be needing this, doctor! Kai: Cui: Don’t tell me you wanted to keep them dragon balls all to yourself and not let the big man in on your secret. After all he’s done for you? Oh, and I hate to dash your old dreams of immortality but he’s gonna kill every last namekian when he’s done. Vegeta: Like hell he will! *snatches scouter* give me that! Looks like I’ll be needing this absurd relic after all.
Pause at 0:40 Man, sometimes I really forget how short Vegeta is supposed to be. It looks like Cui is about to take his lunch money and ask him for last nights homework.
Vegeta: How Does Freez know about the dragon ball? Cui: Scouter was on the whole time? Vegeta that's Impossible my scour was off who's ? GOD DAMMIT NAPPA.
Brian Drummond and Ian James Corlett would later voice Cheetor and Jetstorm together in Beast Machines: Transformers (1999-2000) a year later after they dubbed Dragon Ball Z voicing Son Goku (Kakarot), Cui and Vegeta and their studio ending their deal to air anymore episodes of the dub with company Ocean Studios for FUNIMATION in the USA by 1998 even though it would still air in Canada with the FUNIMATION and Ocean English Dubs in from 1999-2000 (FUNIMATION) and 2000-2003 (Ocean/Westwood) by then FUNIMATION had continued on with or without Ocean Studios since 1998 to present day despite closing down and be renamed CrunchyRoll recently. Scott McNeil and Ian James Corlett who voiced Piccolo Jr. and Son Goku would also voice in Mega-Man 90's cartoon as Mega-Man (Rock) which is funny because in the Japanese versions of the anime and games he's called Rockman and Proto-Man and Dr. Wily. Ian James Corlett also voiced Master Roshi for the rest of Dragon Ball English Dub in 1995 and Dragon Ball Z from 1996-1997 before being replaced by Peter Kelamis who would also voice Goku in 1997-1998 and Don Brown in the three dubbed Dragon Ball Z Movies, although Peter Kelamis did return to voice both characters a little bit before being replaced by Terry Klassen the voice Krillin for that dub who voice directed some other anime and cartoons like 2000's Transformers anime and MLP FIM cartoon. Kirby Morrow (RIP) would then voice Goku from 2001-2003 for the rest of the Ocean/Westwood English Dubs in Canada mostly before being cancelled where he was voicing Eric/Nutcracker in 2001 for Barbie and the Nutcracker. So, yeah Ocean/Westwood like using the same voice actors/actresses. Pauline Newstone (RIP) voiced Frieza in this English Dub and also voiced Airazor in Beast Wars: Transformers (1996-1999) during recordings of dubbing Dragon Ball Z into English.
Historian474 And just what exactly decides whether a character is cannon or not? As far as we know the movies are part of the franchise. Dabura definitely counts as he has appeared on Earth. Besides power levels varies by data-books and sources and none are written by Akira Toriyama himself.
Historian474 Just checked the V-Jump, Yakon's power level is stated to be 800,000,000 where as 100% Frieza's is only 120,000,000. uploads.dragonballencyclopedia.com/1/1e/LargerVersionJumpbattlepower.JPG
The movies are not canon. Some of the movies like the Lord Slug movie can't even fit into the timeline. Babidi stated that Yakon's power was 800 kili's. One kili equals 50,000 scouter units. This places Yakon's powerlevel at 40,000,000. dragonball.wikia.com/wiki/Yakon
Vegeta the Goat he was so damn likeable even as a villian at the same time the writing tricked me into liking him cus his enemies were so displeasing I hated them as much as Vegeta
Opinion: Vegeta Should have Separated from Goku and Earth After He Gave Birth To Trunks and had His Own Sub-Series Seeing He Being a Better Main Character than Sidekick
"Let me put it in plain English...." Please do...there's an American audience watching!!! Hurry, change the line to something with attitude!! And I was never more hooked.
Vegeta went on a killing spree while on Namek.
yeah renegade for life
Thomas Smith yup and Goku didn’t kill one person
❣
Straight from the recovery pod to battle. True Sayine.

The villains in the early Ocean dub had good voices
Agree
Because it’s easily the best dub by far real voice actors

I can watch this 1000 times and still not get bored...the voices, the music is just on another level...😃

The way the Namek saga built up to the epic fight between Goku and Frieza kept everyone ready for the next episode.
Thats the vegeta i remember
The beginning of a chess game on Namek. So many kills by Vegeta up there
He was john wick
@@dscgodflow6663 not quite, John Wick never killed innocents. Most of Vegeta's kills have been innocent people.
The good old days. Namek Saga is the best saga imo
I gotta I agree with u man
yea its the true story everything in the saiyan and namek arc go perfectly together with the original dragonball
Yes❤️
Also cell saga
Sure just skip to the end of ssj goku vs frieza. Though fans condense it well. Someone also uploaded a 3 hour movie of the saiyan saga which was real good too. And of course dbz kakarot did a good job expediting the buu saga.
Give vegeta credit he never thought Frieza was unbeatable

Ian James Corlett never disappoints.
The original voices are so much better because they didn't care about money back then just the art
These are not the original voices, the original voices are Japanese
However, I like the voice of Ocean Dub
I think they were just more seasoned
Supposedly
1:09 Wow, I'm so glad all these aliens can speak "plain English".
English is the de facto language of the universe as it seems, that's in every other anime universes
This saga looks to be the last time where the characters are fighting for the dragon balls.
Exactly. This reminds me of the fast& furious franchise! They started out racing cars then ended up fighting in space!
Fighting for the Dragon Balls got old tbh
Yes this was the last time any villains were actively looking for the dragon balls at least in DBZ. Though the dragon balls had their legacy. For instance Dr Gero didn't actively look for them but the Dragonballs did have a part in bringing Goku into conflict with the Red Ribbon army in the first place which would be the genesis of a grudge leading to Dr Geros schemes.
Vegeta was whooping everybody untill the genu force showed up he kept up pretty well I'll give Vegeta his credit tho
Genu force?
This is how to handle bullies.
The best dub!!
this music is GNARLY
It's interesting, cus in the manga Vegeta doesn't get the scouter back from the doctor where as in the anime he does. But later on in the manga, he puts it on after landing on Namek.
Well the anime fixed that oversight.
Could just assume someone just placed a scouter back in the space pod.
Anime and manga are usually always different

you know qui coulda been a sidekick here but na. least a tempo sidekick.
The voice acting for Vegeta was amazing! Badass, snakelike and raspy.
Hear that voice in a dark alley 😨😨😨
Out of all of Frieza's henchman out of Dodoria, Zarbon, & the Ginyu Force... CUI was had the quickest saga 😂😂😂😂 battle lasted 55 seconds 💀💀💀
Although Cui was much weaker then Dodoria I felt he did about as good against Vegeta.
Vegeta hates cui but he did actually really help him here
(Vageta) Alright Frieza! Lets the games begin!
Wish they had capped the power level at this level and focused on techniques maybe. This plot is so awesome
The whole saga was so incredible it's been recycled nonstop.
vegeta was my favorite character in freiza saga and after that they completely ruined him.
amit Gautam that could be said about all the characters that fought Frieza on Namek. It truly was a great saga and My opinion the best out of all Dragon Ball!
Hes still the best
To think the saiyan, namek, ginyu and Frieza sagas happened simply because piccolo mentioned the dragon balls to Radditz
There’s no such thing as a Ginyu arc…?
Brian Drummond will always be the original Vegeta for me.
Let the games begin
This voice of Vegeta takes me back to 99
Not a fan of kai but gotta say this scene is done better than any of the other dubs.
Ocean Dub:
Cui: Why don’t you do the smart thing and just give up? you’ll never get those dragonballs. trust me vegeta, frieza will certainly find them first and then destroy the planet namek.
Vegeta: I’ll get you frieza! *snatches scouter* on second thought I think I’ll need this
Funimation Dub:
Cui: Why don’t you do the smart thing and just give up because you will never get those dragonballs. Believe me vegeta, frieza will most certainly find them first and when he does will destroy the planet namek.
Vegeta: I can’t give up! *snatches scouter* wait, on second thought I think I’ll be needing this, doctor!

Vegeta: Like hell he will! *snatches scouter* give me that! Looks like I’ll be needing this absurd relic after all.
voice and music are so awesome.
1:45 Did Vegeta went around a Circle?
I LOVE this voice for vegeta
alright frieza!! let the games begin
Pause at 0:40
Man, sometimes I really forget how short Vegeta is supposed to be. It looks like Cui is about to take his lunch money and ask him for last nights homework.
so it is cuis fault for the fall of frieza and his men. What a shame, he should have never told Vegeta
Even if he hadn't, Vegeta would have still found out eventually anyway. He would have seen the rest of his old team (Freiza included) on Namek.
Amazing dub
This ocean dub voices was pretty good didn’t realize till now
Cui sounds awesome and menacing.
Vegeta: How Does Freez know about the dragon ball? Cui: Scouter was on the whole time? Vegeta that's Impossible my scour was off who's ? GOD DAMMIT NAPPA.
