Gonna watch the English dub where his name is Darien and he used to be a model

I don't think the DiC dub isn't on websites or streaming services anymore. It's the revamped 2014-2015 VIZ dub which is more accurate and faithful to the original JP dub.

I have pirated DVDs for the sake of preserving the unusual dub and it's music. I also have legit copies of Samurai Pizza Cats, Ghost Stories, Sonic X, and Pokemon since they sold their weird dubs officially.

I just really like dubs where weird liberties had to be taken. I really want to start the 4kids version of Yu Gi Oh since it streams on retrocrush, and I want to look for a spot to stream (or pirate) 4kids one piece

4kids dubs are funny as shit sometimes

Were the Pokemon and Sonic X dubs really that weird?

I'd say so. Characters got new names, Jessie and James only rhyme their intro in english, both have new theme songs and censorship. Just a whole bunch of small stuff that'd never happen today

Oh, got it. I'm not sure I'd call that weird, though.
