AG 105 dub title

[FabuVinny]

JP title: "Seal the Giant Claydol!"
Dub title: "Claydol Big and Tall"

Shigemori the Sage keeps his original name.

 

[Argy]

Wow, what is with 4Kids keeping the names the same all of a sudden?

 

[Misty]

This is a sign of the apocalypse! The world is ending!

 

[Unregistered]

4kids usually keep the names unless they're too Japanese

 

[Nekusagi]

First Harley, now Shigemori?
...Repent, children. The end is near.

4kids usually keep the names unless they're too Japanese

And Shigemori and Izabe aren't Japanese?

 

[Zak]

It was funny when they gave someone a Japanese sounding dub name, which wasn't even the original name. Heh... remember Otoshi? His Japanese name was actually "Saizou".

[Kasumi]

At least they are now keeping the original names. They should have done so since the beginning.

 

[Cybersai]

Heh, they'll probably start renaming the characters again soon, I doubt 4kids decided to stick with all the original names for the rest of Hoenn.

Although I'm thinking they'll leave Masamune's name as is because the guy actually looks Japanese.

 

[Nekusagi]

Like I said, maybe they do listen to fan/hate mail...

 

[Sharpshooter]

Wow, what is with 4Kids keeping the names the same all of a sudden?

Maybe those emails sent during the Raikou special scandal worked!

 

[FabuVinny]

Or maybe it was just easier not to spend time thinking up a new name. The alliteration is there, and his name is only said twice. (Ash just calls him Sage.)

Geez, you guys act like it's a bad thing. ^_^ Points for 4Kids!

I think they're running out of names to use, as well. They haven't used mine yet, grr. XD

They haven't used mine, either, although I don't mind...if they do use it, or a variation on it, I hope they use it for the name of a female Ground-type gym leader, since it's very well suited for it. And because a female Ground-type gym leader would be fifteen kinds of awesome.

*is named Hilary*

 

[Kasumi]

There hasn't been any Alexandras yet, right?

 

[Geodude]

Apparently there's been an Alex, but he wasn't named in the episode, he only showed up in the closed captioning...according to Blackjack, anyway. He was the guy in the Shroomish ep.

Interesting about the Japanese name staying...

 

[Misty]

They've used my name in every ep to date minus the first.

Naturally, it's James.

 

[Blackjack Gabbiani]

Mine was used for a girl who was dead before she even showed up (Amber).

 

[Cybersai]

My name (which is also my username) is used for the big fat party animal known as Scott who owns the Battle Frontier.

I seriously hope Scott gives Ash something special after he defeats the Brains, in the games all Scott gives you is a freakin' berry! All that hard work battling and beating tough trainers for just some lame berry.

If there was ever a ripoff in the Pokemon games, that would be it. Hopefully the anime does something different.

 

[Blackjack Gabbiani]

Scott has a pimpin' car.

And that certainly would be funny if they elected to keep it a berry. Although I think the last Brain may do a tournament sort of thing...
