    I dunno, I really don't like who they picked for Itachi.

    <@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs

    Wow, so the Naruto VA's have been popping in Narutofan for feedback. Impresssive, I'm glad to see that they're so dedicated in making a good dub.

    I'm so glad that Steven Blum is voicing Oro. I haven't heard it yet but I know he will be awesome.

    If the new episodes keep getting uploaded to Youtube, I'm going to continue to post them here every week. This'll be good for anyone who misses an episode, or for people who haven't heard the dub at all. That said, here is episode 31, in 2 parts:

    Episode 31 part 1
    Episode 31 part 2

    Thoughts...God Almighty, I'm beginning to really hate Neji's voice. He doesn't fit the role at all. Something about the way he delivers his lines just irks me. I can't think of him playing Neji any better in the future either. Maybe I'm being pessimistic, but I think he's one of the worst voices in this dub.

    Rock Lee, however, is awesome. He captures Lee's upright-ness so perfectly and he's got the right sounding voice to fit Lee. The no-contraction thing was a good move imo. Lee's kind of a dork, but also really cool, and I think both sides are portrayed well by this actor's performance. I can't imagine them doing it any better because Lee is just so unique.

    I'm also really warming up to Shikamaru's voice. He sounds like an average, bored teen. Which is exactly what Shikamaru is. His sound of his voice is really different than in Japanese which is kinda jarring, but ignoring that I really like him. He also sounds most like a teenager out of all the Genin to me, so his lines sound natural (especially with the "what a drag..." parts). All in all, it sounds pretty good.

    This was also the first time I heard Gai's voice, and I think he makes Gai even funnier than in Japanese during the comical scenes. I don't remember laughing so much when I first watched it. It also helps that his English and Japanese voices sounds reallllly similar (It's like if the JP actor were speaking English...without any accent, of course). It's too bad he can't deliver the serious lines worth shit though. It's like he's stuck in uber-corny mode all the time (just listen to his explanation of the Lotus in part 2 - "LEE, this JUSTU uses CHAKRA"). Ugh...I hope he shapes up before we get to all of Lee's flashbacks during the later episodes.

    <@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
