"Saiya People" is an literal translation of the Japanese term for Saiyan, Saiya-jin. Speedy does this for every race too, so you get "Namek people" too.
@@inconemay1441 Yeah, "Saiyan" is an accurate way to translate it, since "Saiya-jin" means "People of the planet Saiya" and English uses -ian to denote that usually (like with Martian)
@@umbrellaunderdog Oh no, Tien is accurate to his name’s origin. It’s “Tien Shinhan” that’s inaccurate, because that’s just nonsense. If it was just Tien in the dub, it would be fine.
"I couldn't die knowing you're still alive." Alright that was pretty badass. Maybe its cuz the dub comes off more as a parody so we don't expect it, but that serious line in the midst of this mess was pretty badass. Dare I say, it's better then the funimation dub for that one bit.
I can't help but wonder if the AB Group looked at Tien and thought "Ahhh!! That third eye must mean he's an alien!!" and thus we got what we hear now. That's the only possible explanation I can think of.
“Oh geez Goku is eating. It’s gonna be really hard to get his attention. *GOKU!!!!!*” “Huh?” Ok this dub wins for most accurate portrayal of character.
Why talk about the different versions? Simple, because its actually really fascinating to see the different interpitations of a scene through the character voices and lines. This is especially true when it comes to the different Gokus in comparison with each other.
@@masterfarr8265 The thing is, there's easily an explanation, and it also comes from Dragon Ball Super: Time Rings. They're items that allow beings to teleport to any point in a timeline, or even between timelines in some instances. Which an actually evil Goku, Goku Black, uses.
@@phelous no man, Speedy has to be a group made up of those guys that did the Japanese Transformers dubs. Think about it, I bet to get to Namek, the group had to ride on Spaceship Bruce.
They eventually took the best people from all DubbS and re-dubbed everything And that’s how we got the DUbs everybody knows and likes today. And even though people don’t like Dragon Ball GT it was that series that brought all the ones together from all different job studios into one mishmash of all the best voices from each dub
Actually you're idea of what Turles being Kakarot from another timeline sounds infinitely more interesting than just another lower class saiyan Phelous. Right on dude
From looking into it, yeah it's something a lot more common / understandable in Japanese. It's usually a translation of "yurusenai" with the connotation being less just "I won't forgive you" on a personal offense level, and more "what you have done is unforgivable" usually implying that the person you're saying it to is too horrible for redemption, not necessarily that you previously considered forgiving them or anything.
Curse of The Blood Rubies may have even more than that. There's also the Mystery of Mamo's Lupin The 3rd movie,with 4 different dubs,all included in Discotek's release.
It's honestly refreshing coming across dub discussion videos like this without the annoying "sub>dub" sentiment. Plus come on, the Ocean Pioneer dub for Tree of Might is legitimately really good.
@@chrisheimva4857 Yeah, the Ocean Pioneer dub is the best dub out of the five. Still DBZ abridged is 2nd best English dub of tree of might or should i say Christmas tree of might!
"I'll never forgive you" is a pretty literal translation of the Japanese. I think it's supposed to evoke something closer to "unforgivable" but no one ever translates it that way.
The Swedish dub goes above and beyond with Turles' name-confusion and instead refers to him as Raditz! I remember watching this movie and being so disappointed by that cause why would the animators change Raditz's hair for no reason?! I was glad to learn later that Turles is actually his own character.
Big Green's Shenron had kind of a Mojo Jojo thing going there for a minute at 11:07 "Think carefully about your one wish, because whatever it is, I can only grant one wish."
I think it's sort of safe to say when DBZ was growing more in popularity here in the US, this movie was the quintessential 'starter' movie to watch for it. Ah, those early days. They were fun.
I can't help but wonder if the AB Group looked at Tien and thought "Ahhh!! That third eye must mean he's an alien!!" and thus we got what we hear now. That's the only possible explanation I can think of.
I actually vaguely recall there being a side-manga that said Turles and Raditz were BFFs as kids. Guess he just one day was just like "Wow dude, your dad is an average fighter but he's a BRILLIANT stylist!" and was never the same again.

Good job guys, well done.
@@chrisheimva4857 4kids was way worse, AB Groupe at least tried to kinda adapt the original and had the Japanese music for their dubs, plus their censorship was a lot less intricate than the digital repaints of 4Kids, they're jank as hell but a better rapresentation of the original IPs than 4kids.
If Big Green Piccolo can't help let that child alone, it's up to Big Green Tien! BG Tien: "Nnnyeeeehhhhhhhhhh!" And Gohan's dead. Oh well, at least BG Tien had a clear conscience.
I love it when Phelous sometimes when Goku talks, he uses King MAGOD's voice. 12:54 Woah! What's the big deal anyway? "It's not done!" 13:00 "Finished! Play another game. Okay?"
In the original Japanese, the Tree of Might is called 神精樹, Shinseiju, lit. "Divine Spiritual Tree" so the tree itself is divine in origin despite its use by a villain! Also when King Kai says God is only allowed to eat the fruit he is likely referring to those who hold the position of Kami/Guadian (based upon how he said it, the implication is that only those who take upon the position of Kami/God which at the time of the film was held by the Good Half of the Nameless Namekian known as Kami due to taking on the title by becoming Kami of Earth!) In XENOVERSE 2, Elder Kai expands upon the concept by claiming only gods like himself & Chronoa are permitted to consume the holy fruit thus including the Supreme Kais among the gods known to be allowed to consume the fruit (presumably in modern Dragon Ball it would also likely apply to Gods of Destruction like Beerus, Angels such as Whis, & possibly the Omni-King Zeno as they are literally the King of all the Gods & who could really say no to Zeno a being who can literally erase entire universes out of existence)!
THEY ACTUALLY DID!😱 That’s the first time I’ve ever seen the auto-captions do that. And for the word “midget” of all words too! You’d think it would’ve done that for the N word instead.
King Kai: Kaioken. KAIOKEN!!!! It's in my ******* name! Like King Kai, AS IN KAIOSAMA!!! That is it, none of you are learning any of my techniques! Neither the Kaioken or the Genkidama!!!
As one who is only used to the German Dub such comparissons are pretty neat. I personally always loved it when Icarus appeared. Like many of the Dragons and Monster designs by Toriyama this one had a way sweet design. Found Icarus always rather adorable but guess since the focus was mostly more on the action they simply stopped using him just like other of the characters.
I do love how Picolo acts more like a dad when Gohan is in trouble than his own dad Goku. Like, he goes straight to "Put him the fuck down, or I'm gonna tear off your arm and beat you to death with it!" levels of daddy bear
As a pro baseball MVP, Yamcha should be the wealthiest character in the main Dragon Ball cast (second to Bulma), so the part about him being in debt of 15 grand doesn't make sense if he most likely has millions.
@@TimTE01 Akira Toriyama did have an interesting way of thematic naming... like the Saiyans being named after vegetables, the Freeza Soldiers being named after fruit, the Ginyu force being named after Dairy products, Bulma's family being named after various types of undergarments... It was quite in vogue (probably still is) for Japanese Anime to do such a thing, Rumiko Takahashi (Urusei Yatsura, Ranma 1/2 and Inuyasha) did it too, as in Ranma 1/2 the Chinese characters are all named after hair products as shown by Shampoo, Cologne and Mousse (whom in English were voiced by DBZ Ocean Dub regulars)
Aw yeah! I thought I could use some more DBZ material from Phelous! You know, it's funny, I've never been a huge fan of Dragon Ball but for some reason, shows about it fascinate me. Maybe it's just the fans' enthusiasm, maybe it's because there's a lot of weird and interesting trivia, maybe something about the atmosphere of the franchise is just fun, I don't know.
The Japanese title for this film translates roughly to something like “The Ultimate Decisive Battle for Earth”. So, on the whole, Big Green’s title is the closest to the original title 😂. It being awkward is Big Green’s fault, but the generic title? Thats ALL on the Japanese titles lol
Honesty is the best policy. Did we have to wait until the Tenkaichi games to know Turles among many others actually can become a giant gorilla? I think not.
David Gasman is actually a relatively prolific voice actor within his own circle, and he does have quite a bit of vocal range. If you've ever played a Quantic Dream game, you've almost certainly heard him in a (slightly) less silly context. In Fahrenheit/Indigo Prophecy, for example, he's two of the main characters, Tyler and Lucas, and Tyler is a black guy.
It’s funny how so many people on RUclips love to (understandably) take the piss out of the Saban/ocean dub yet like you pointed out, so many of the lines are the same as funimation and it’s obvious they used the same scripts, and yet several times you point out that the Saban/ocean dub that people usually mock did a few scenes and lines better than the preferred funimation dub. Also that “I couldn’t die knowing you’re still alive.” Line goes so hard.
I've seen people defending the "Saiya people" translation on the basis that it's closer to the original text. That's technically true, but in a bad way: It's an overly-literal translation that doesn't really understand how Japanese-English translation work. The original Japanese name for the Saiyans is サイヤ人 (Saiyajin), with 人 (jin) meaning "person" (Japanese plurals work differently), so I can kind of see where they're coming from, but the thing is, "[name of place person is from]jin" is just how demonyms (terms for someone from a specific place; ex. Mexican, New Yorker, Martian) work in Japanese; in this case it's meant to indicate that they come from the planet Saiya. You wouldn't call someone, say, a "Korea person," because that isn't how English demonyms work.
The first time I saw this movie as a kid, was on Cartoon Network with the censored bush. I then rented it from Blockbuster, and I knew something was off. And no, it wasn't just the uncensored bush, but the dub as well. Basically, Cartoon Network had Gohan call the dragon Icarus, while the VHS didn't have Gohan call him that.

David Gasman voiced William Dunbar and Jim Morales in Code Lyoko, two roles he really owned. Sadly, Big Green WASTES his talent.
I've never seen someone needing to cough so bad they do it in their mind, we need more of that it was great
Moar brain coughing
Tullece beat Goku's ass so bad, he was coughing in his mind.
OH GOD The auto-captions actually censored the Saban/Ocean dub at 8:30
THEY ACTUALLY DID!😱
That’s the first time I’ve ever seen the auto-captions do that. And for the word “midget” of all words too! You’d think it would’ve done that for the N word instead.
@@keijijohnson9754
...does it _not_ censor the n-word? I’d be really surprised if it didn’t.
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa “turns into a super Sayian” aaaahhhhh
Oh sorry i was on the toilet
I hate it when that happens.
Classic Phelous videos like this make me feel so much better 😌
Five dubs and the line read that made laugh the hardest was Funimation’s.
“Kaio-Ken... TIMES TWENTY!!!!”

This was one of your best reviews yet!
As one who is only used to the German Dub such comparissons are pretty neat. I personally always loved it when Icarus appeared. Like many of the Dragons and Monster designs by Toriyama this one had a way sweet design. Found Icarus always rather adorable but guess since the focus was mostly more on the action they simply stopped using him just like other of the characters.
I do love how Picolo acts more like a dad when Gohan is in trouble than his own dad Goku. Like, he goes straight to "Put him the fuck down, or I'm gonna tear off your arm and beat you to death with it!" levels of daddy bear
As a pro baseball MVP, Yamcha should be the wealthiest character in the main Dragon Ball cast (second to Bulma), so the part about him being in debt of 15 grand doesn't make sense if he most likely has millions.
Yeah though he might not be a baseball pro in the movie continuity. TFS has a funny short showing millionarie living his best life yamcha.
"...and you get to make a dub, and you get to make a dub! Everyone gets to make a dub!"
Turles: the original black goku
Turles was better. He had Saiyan Armor.
in the Swedish dub, he's raditz
you make fun of the Dragon explaining everything, but this was legitimately the first DBZ "episodes" i had ever seen
It’s been a while since you last talked about Big Green. This time, it’s Turles’ time to shine!
13:46 That’s an underrated line.
The Speedy dub is basically like those from Art Media/East West with thicker accents.
I've been waiting for this review for a long time.
"Turles" name is meant to be "Tullece", a play on "lettuce".
The naming in DBZ was always weird to me.
They are always puns based on random themes.
...and me thinking his name came from "turnips"...
Those are closer to carrots anyway
@@TimTE01 Akira Toriyama did have an interesting way of thematic naming... like the Saiyans being named after vegetables, the Freeza Soldiers being named after fruit, the Ginyu force being named after Dairy products, Bulma's family being named after various types of undergarments... It was quite in vogue (probably still is) for Japanese Anime to do such a thing, Rumiko Takahashi (Urusei Yatsura, Ranma 1/2 and Inuyasha) did it too, as in Ranma 1/2 the Chinese characters are all named after hair products as shown by Shampoo, Cologne and Mousse (whom in English were voiced by DBZ Ocean Dub regulars)
Joe Taylor Still weird.
Aw yeah! I thought I could use some more DBZ material from Phelous! You know, it's funny, I've never been a huge fan of Dragon Ball but for some reason, shows about it fascinate me. Maybe it's just the fans' enthusiasm, maybe it's because there's a lot of weird and interesting trivia, maybe something about the atmosphere of the franchise is just fun, I don't know.
The Japanese title for this film translates roughly to something like “The Ultimate Decisive Battle for Earth”. So, on the whole, Big Green’s title is the closest to the original title 😂. It being awkward is Big Green’s fault, but the generic title? Thats ALL on the Japanese titles lol
Why do characters in the Big Green dub always talk about having a clear conscience?
THAT'S THE TRADITION!
Honesty is the best policy. Did we have to wait until the Tenkaichi games to know Turles among many others actually can become a giant gorilla? I think not.
Goku with the Dingo dub made me laugh so hard I spit drink all over the place and had to clean up before I could continue.
Okay, Scott McNeil's version of Piccolo confronting Turles is downright BADASS.
Yeah, I'm glad these Pioneer releases exist so you get to hear the early Ocean dub not tied to the silly censorship.
"Scott McNeil's version of Piccolo is downright BADASS." Fixed that for you; you had some extra words in there.

Ngl, I never watched the anime, but I really enjoy listening to Phelous talking about all these different "variations" ;>
Finally! More of Big Green!
Guess I'll post something for the algorithm again, I just want to have a clear conscience...
Wow! Another Phelous episode covering a Big Green Dub... yeah, it has been only like... 3 years since you covered the last one!
David Gasman is actually a relatively prolific voice actor within his own circle, and he does have quite a bit of vocal range. If you've ever played a Quantic Dream game, you've almost certainly heard him in a (slightly) less silly context. In Fahrenheit/Indigo Prophecy, for example, he's two of the main characters, Tyler and Lucas, and Tyler is a black guy.
It’s funny how so many people on RUclips love to (understandably) take the piss out of the Saban/ocean dub yet like you pointed out, so many of the lines are the same as funimation and it’s obvious they used the same scripts, and yet several times you point out that the Saban/ocean dub that people usually mock did a few scenes and lines better than the preferred funimation dub.
Also that “I couldn’t die knowing you’re still alive.” Line goes so hard.
I've seen people defending the "Saiya people" translation on the basis that it's closer to the original text. That's technically true, but in a bad way: It's an overly-literal translation that doesn't really understand how Japanese-English translation work. The original Japanese name for the Saiyans is サイヤ人 (Saiyajin), with 人 (jin) meaning "person" (Japanese plurals work differently), so I can kind of see where they're coming from, but the thing is, "[name of place person is from]jin" is just how demonyms (terms for someone from a specific place; ex. Mexican, New Yorker, Martian) work in Japanese; in this case it's meant to indicate that they come from the planet Saiya. You wouldn't call someone, say, a "Korea person," because that isn't how English demonyms work.
A new Phelous Dragon Ball review? It's been too long.
Krillin: Oh no! The forest is in a great big fireeeee
The first time I saw this movie as a kid, was on Cartoon Network with the censored bush. I then rented it from Blockbuster, and I knew something was off. And no, it wasn't just the uncensored bush, but the dub as well. Basically, Cartoon Network had Gohan call the dragon Icarus, while the VHS didn't have Gohan call him that.
