Petitions don't work and she's not coming back. However, I did prefer her voice over the British Butler. Every time I hear the new VA I feel as if he is about to offer me tea...
Well, he is supposed to sound refined. The "British" aspect of voice veers him close to butler territoy for some, I guess. I mean, he sounds relatively close to his JP voice, so I liked Ayres' performance.

Hilarious the people making the point that Freiza wasn't supposed to sound like an old woman given the amount of people who'll throw a fit every time you say the same thing about Japanese Goku.

Freiza's design is androgynous so I didn't have a problem with Linda's voicework sounding too feminine. She got the silky evil arrogant part right which is more important. I'd like her back for nostalgia reasons I suppose but eh, I'm sure there are plenty who could do the job.

Get Martin Billany to do it.

Goku's apparently a special case. I heard that they couldn't find a replacement for him during Dragon Ball when Goku comes back as a teenager, and that they ended up being commited to using the original voice by the time they could.
That would explain a lot.

I find 80 year old Japanese women voicing male adult anime characters to be quite... attractive... Don't you...?

Twin check out DBZ abridged by team four star. It starts rough but the namek season is gold and will make Frezia and Vegeta two of your absolute favorite characters..

Vegeta has always been my favorite actually. From downright evil to doing a complete 180 degree flip to a good side is quite the process, even if it did take 500 episodes. XD Actually, I think when I was kid, many a time I tried to imitate the voice. Whether or not I was good is up for debate I guess.

her voice has an alien 'idk wtf it is" tone

Not really. It sounds like an old woman that smoked too much or someone that is forcing their voice to be a certain way.

See a big problem that DBz's dub ran into is that when they started recording it back in the mid 90s there was no "standard" for anime acting at the time. They didn't really know what they were doing. Can't blame them for that really, but as a result the voice work is all over the place and a lot of it sounds very forced.

By the time FUNimation got around to doing shows like Full Metal Alchemist they had been dubbing anime for quite sometime and had a much better handle on it and it clearly showed. Even though what you hear in something like FMA is very standard in terms of anime dubbing it's leaps and bounds beyond what was done for DBZ. For instance there aren't many hero characters in DBZ's dub that can carry on a casual conversation the way characters in FMA and/or a number of other animes do when their "natural" speaking voices sound like they're grinding their teeth.

Those type of voices work fine for the action scenes which DBZ is mostly comprised of but the flaws of the choices become much more apparent when the characters are just hanging around at some ones house. Now you might say those types of moments are few and far between but that problem still exists and becomes even more intensified when something like Battle of The Gods comes a long and is made up of so many comedic moments.

In other words they never really thought the voices through. It's a very similar situation to David Hayter's Solid Snake voice. Works perfectly fine in most situations because of who the character is but it's nearly impossible for that voice type to display a wide range of emotions well. It's sort of a one note thing that hits that one note very well.

I always felt she fitted the role cause Frieza to me was androgynous like.

By that logic nearly every lead Final Fantasy character should like Freiza, or Raiden from Metal Gear should sound like Freiza.

Not to turn this into a Japanese Vs English thing, but they did with Freiza in the Japanese version was always far more clever and interesting. He has a somewhat low subtle voice that sounds very creepy but on top of that he speaks very politely which makes him (and his voice) even creepier.

The Kai version of the voice is definitely trying to emulate the Japanese version to a degree. That's where the whole "English butler" feeling comes from because the closest English equivalent of Freiza's voice would probably be a British accent speaking very proper English.

Freiza in Japan (when not fighting) almost comes across like a Bond villian of sorts rather than a typical super villain the way that the old dub tries to portray him as.

Goku's apparently a special case. I heard that they couldn't find a replacement for him during Dragon Ball when Goku comes back as a teenager, and that they ended up being commited to using the original voice by the time they could.

Also it's hard to find a replacement for the actor that Akira Toriyama hand picked. That is most likely the biggest problem they ran up against. In other words how does the Japanese production staff go about picking someone to replace the actor that Toriyama decided upon?

In Dragon Ball when Goku has grown the voice still works fine because so much of the oringinal DB was based on comedy it didn't require much action heavy or heroic sounding voices. It was only when Z came a long that it became more a problem. Goku became more of a Superman type character in Z and that voice didn't really work well in a lot of those action moments, however it still worked very well in the comedic moments that Z had.

Goku's voice will always be the most difficult to cast regardless of language due to his personality extremes. When he's fighting he's this very focused warrior that's very heroic, but when he's not fighting he has this doofus child like innocence to him and as such is a difficult voice to properly cast.

If I thought this petition had a snowball's chance of succeeding, I'd start a petition of my own to make sure Linda Young never gets to voice Frieza and that they go with whoever voices Frieza in the abridged version instead.

And OP, please don't think I'm being negative about Young's voice work skill, because I'm not. Rather, think of me as being highly positive...that I don't want Young as the voice of Frieza ever again.

uhm, littlekuriboh is better known for abridging yu-gi-oh, I'd like to see him voice some YGO chars, not dbz, takahata and nekokaiser for dbz pls.
though LK makes a good frieza, I could only ever imagine him being atem.

For the most part I like the new voice a lot...Just not when he yells.
Gamephreak5 2015 年 3 月 16 日 下午 10:12 
No, Linda Young sucked as Frieza.

Besides, she retired from voice acting altogether. From what I heard, doing the Frieza voice messed up her vocals. Also, FUNi probably has a contract with Chris Ayers and every other current voice actor from DBZ Kai.

So yah, not gonna happen.
