This kinda works too if you make the words really short, except instead of sounding dramatic, they sound commanding...

Sci-fi channel dub, huh? I looked it up on the Video Website, could only stomach the voices for about a minute. Kamina's voice... just not manly enough. Not nearly.

And why do they call Simon "see-mone"? It's an English name that's mispronounced in the original Japanese, why in God's name would they keep it that way in the English dub?!

Although Yoko's voice is OK.

How do people not know this?

SERIOUSLYYYYY

Maybe it's a Spanish Simon.

Seemoan

KHHHHHHHAAAARNNN

Lol, me and my buddy bought the volume 3 DVD of TTGL.

Never going back to dub Simon voice again *twitches*

LEEERROOOOYYY JEEENKIIIN!

Close.

Funny, in my opinion, TTGL can make anyone feel manly.

Probably partly "staying true to the original" and partly because of this:

Simon's name comes from the Japanese word for "below" (下 shimo), tying in with a theme for most of the main characters to have names based around location, direction, or distance. This implies a bit of irony, as Simon controls the Gurren-Lagann from on top of the Gurren inside the Lagann, while Kamina, who is named after the Japanese word for "above" (上 kami) pilots it from underneath the Lagann inside the Gurren. The kanji for shimo and kami are nearly identical, except kami is vertically flipped.

KHHHHHHHAAAARNNN

I had a feeling someone would say that.

Now that I think about it it's only some consonant sounds that screw up a "dramatic vowel." Like c, k, ch, t, x, d. Others don't, like s, n, m, th, sh. You can hear the difference when you pronounce them out loud.

YES. IT DOES. EVEN IF YOU'RE NOT A MAN.

OR SO I HEARD.

It's also getting me through college apps since I've resolved not to get hooked on a new series until I'm done with all my applications.
