I think they cast the right people, they just gave them the wrong roles.

Fuck this shit. I can go to my bed room and watch episodes 1-6 of season 1 when ever I want, because I have volume 1 of season 1!

...regardless, this is pretty good for today's standards. I've seen amazing recent dubs (Gurren Lagann, Mushishi, Spice & Wolf, Strike Witches...hell even Hetalia, because of the use of accents), and this doesn't quite live up to them, but it's sure as hell better than those sorry excuses for dubs of amazing series, i.e. Clannad, among others.

American voice actors for overdubs seem to have a hard time portraying specific characters' personalities through the tone of their voice without sounding too monotone or over-the-top. Voice actors are a big deal in Japan, not to mention their scripts are the originals and are easily synced with the animation, so it'd make sense why they'd usually be better.

@TheRamosOnline They don't swear in the Japanese version to begin with, so how is it watered down? Ika Musume is pretty much the definition of an innocent for-all-ages SoL Comedy. Ika does drop "super-pissed" once or twice, but I don't believe she'd ever have a reason to say "bitch".
If you read between the lines of what she's saying, Ika actually swears quite a lot in the English dub, she just replaces the actual words with fish puns that sound innocent.

shes sound better in japaneze
Sounds good to me, no where near the 80s or early 90s voices. No wonder the companies bash these idiots for complaining. Majority don't even buy the products...

I feel difference in ability of voice actors in Japan and the U.S.
Many voice actor applicants are in Japan. A competition rate is high. There are a lot of voice actor training schools in japan.
Therefore the Japanese voice actors have high ability in spite of the new face.
tone, accent, emotional expression. etc.
