Kyubei, Otae, Kondo, Otose, Tama, Sakamoto, Takasugi, Yamazaki are fine enough. Him along with Tsukuyo are borderline okay. ZuraKatsura lacks the serous idiot tone for me. He is like 15 years older than a most of the others yet sounds no older than Gin.

Something about it rubs me the wrong way. Maybe a little much trying to sound 'cool'. I'm guessing the Chinese accent can't be translated well. Shinpachi sounds too deep for me and lacks the iconic straightman Shinpachi voice. He sounds like he is trying too hard to sound bad/scared while the other version sounded more natural. Gintoki is fine (Sugita is the only one in my heart though). The dub itself is fine and I hear the cast themselves are great picks, it is just I prefer what I'm used to.Īs for some thoughts on the individual voices (I haven't fully watched an episode yet) I'm so used to the Japanese voice actors that I have a hard time with this dub. (off topic a bit but I can't wait to get these on DVD when they start selling them ^^ )Īnd CrunchyRoll has also said new dubbed episodes of Gintama every Wednesday through February and also the cast listingsĮDIT- I was looking through episode 266's comments and so far they're decently positive which is nice to see (and man I wish I could comment but I can't sadly for whatever reason)

Myself personally I'm gonna start watching, season 3 from 266-316 are both dubbed and free to watch on CrunchyRoll. Gintama being one of them I know it's not everyone's treat having an anime dubbed but for us who prefer dubs or can't watch subs this is a nice one to get. So as some of you may know back in late 2016 FUNImation and CrunchyRoll joined forces and CrunchyRoll announced that they were going to start doing some dubs for some of their previously sub only shows.
