I knew that I recognized that voice from somewhere. Ted Lewis did the voice of Escargoon in Kirby Right Back at Ya. And...HOLY CRAP!! He was Giovanni in Pokemon. And Tracey!? Now I like this guy even more.
My favorite thing about Grandoll was indeed Ted Lewis as Peos with his Paul Lynde impression--which he would later use for Escargoon on "Kirby: Right Back At Ya!". It was even funnier when he cussed and I'm now tempted to edit clips of Kirby with audio from Grandoll for the laughs.
The only time I've seen that whole sleeping bag principle (which is what I'm calling it now) actually be avoided was in One Piece. Some flying enemies were attacking the ship, and some guy shouted to group back up for another pass, and Franky thought they were calling to him. He said Sentai (translating to something like formation or team) which sounds similar to Hentai (perverted, or in this case, the noun, pervert), which Franky identifies himself as. I remember watching the sub and thinking "theres a joke thats gonna get lost in translation". When the dub (my preferred viewing experience) finally caught up to it, I was surprised. They actually put forth the effort on such a stupid joke, translating the command to "revert for flyby", and Franky thought they said "pervert fly-guy", referring to him. This is the only time i've seen a pun translation not come out as something completely off the wall.
I am not a native English-speaker and this anime gives me the impression that all people who are must have damaged eardrums from all the high-pitched squeaking females do all the time..
How to save the sleeping bag pun: she took the phrase "time to lay this to rest" literally. Give me a job at Funimation.
Invader Zim was probably one of the best examples of alien/spy/whatever infiltrating a school.
Oh my god! That Lewis guy was the announcer in Pokemon Stadium? I LOVE THAT GUY!
I know grown women voice young boys, but it doesn't really work with grown men voicing young women.
OK, how in the hell could Sage make a trilby joke and NOT get called out by Linkara?
Gotta love that LittleKuriboh cameo
Goddamnit, let Kuriboh act like Jack Atlas!!
God that Nathan guy is so ridiculously hammy. It's so glorious
Not gonna lie Sage - your Paul Lynde impression is great.
Oh my god, the acting in this anime....And I thought Tommy Wiseau's performance was the pinnacle of hilarity.
"Does anyone give a shit in New York." Fuck no they don't. 4Kids was from New York.
