We last left off where Seth decided to go to Valor on his black dragon Erath. And when he got there...And if anyone forgot the story, Kyan found his long lost friend Seth on Valor, and his black dragon Erath. Kyan is a mamkute that can still use swords as well as dragon stone attack.
Welcome to BEHG. We hope you enjoy your trip through our cesspool of hatred and lies.

No. Why would they? Who would care? "Sorry sir, but you're eating grapes. You're buying $100 worth of food, but these grapes, they're very important. I'm paid minimum wage but you simply have to stop eating those so you can pay the right price for them. Because it is my civic duty to stop grape-eaters everywhere."

No one would do a thing, in fact I usually eat something while shopping. Sometimes it's a bag of potato chips or something, which sometimes I also don't pay for. SOMETIMES GOOD-BYE IS A SECOND CHANCE

The Love Love Tenkyoken was anticlimactic? What's wrong with you?
Aw yeah he saved the chick so now he's gonna wipe the floor with the bad Gundam.
Aw yeah he said 'let's finish this'!
Fuck yeah his hand is burning red!!
Even more fuck yeah, he did Sekiha Tenkyoken with his girlfriend!
Awesome! He...wait? What's that angry fat guy in pink doing here?
Wait, what? Did the fat guy growl? <-- dub only
So, uh, what the fuck just happened?
A heart shaped hole? WTF?
Oh well.
if you don't think that was cool then you need to re-evaluate your take on life.

The dub is... Well, the sound quality is lower, for one. Second, very many VAs can't act worth shit (Domon's Mark Gatha being the prime example, probably because he was a medschool student and not an actor), some of the voices are just painful to listen to (Sai Saici), they removed BGM:s (first God Finger, for instance, doesn't have Waga Kokoro, Meikyou Shisui playing in the background of the dub), there's the censored/changed names...

Oh, and the translation of the Ryuuha Touhoufuhai motto. WTF?

Ryuuha Touhoufuhai wa
Ouja no Kaze yo
Zenshin
Keiretsu
Tenpa Kyoran
Miyo, Touhou wa akkaku moeteiru!

in the dub:

The school of the undefeated of the East
The winds of the king
Zenshin
Keiretsu
Tenpa Kyoran
Look! The east is burning red!

Ignoring the fact that the timing makes the first scene of this look utterly dreadful in the dub, what the hell is up with just translating half of it? They also seem to miss the implyed "is" in the first to second line... gringe might correctg me on this, but I'm pretty sure an accurate translation would be:

The school of Invincible East*
Is the wind of the king!
All new...
Techniques will...
Shatter the heavens!**
Behold, the Orient*** is burning red!

*"Touhoufuhai" stems from Dongfang Bubai (same kanji in Chinese), the invincible, transvestite, neutered martial artist of the Chinese novel The Proud, Smiling Wanderer. The name is usually translated as "Invincible East"; it literally means East-Direction-Non-Defeat, but non-defeat implies invincibility, like no-enemies (muteki) does.

**According to some Chinese people I've talked to, it's actually a Japanese pronunciation of a Chinese idiom, but "shatter the heavens" fits well in with Sekiha Tenkyoken (another untranslated thing), which means "stone-crushing sky-shattering fist".

***Just a matter of preference, "Touhou" here literally refers to "the far East" or "The Orient".


And this is, uh, why I don't like the G Gundam dub.
