Lawl, I have found out the personalities of the LFO characters, well actually I'll only list the ones that matter.
They are JUST as I have predicted...oh good predictable LFO, how I love thee...and yet hate at the very same time.
I am level.11 with my Stinky now, and have learned a skill, hooray! I do awesome combos with it, =D. Of course LFO crashed three times today oddly, which is odd as it usually never crashes, I'm trying to reach level 12 (and beat the first goddamned stage...>>, the bosses are hard) and figure out another skill. (One is kind of boring really) I have planned to make someone, particularly my brother, use PAYPAL and buy me a deck of those TCG cards of LFO to get a better character than Stinky. Yes, I am so goddamned in love with this game I will actually for once in my life pay for it.

Anyway, here are the stupid badly translated summaries of characters that matter:

"Henry-desk Henry Archer 』" br everywhere "br everywhere Sex : Male" br everywhere broad character : an open mind, informal details,
為人率直,平易近人。Human blunt, charming.
絕技 : 五連矢、穿空矢<br />Music : five consecutive arrows through the air arrow "br everywhere" 


Basically: Henry is a bold, tolerant traveler who has an open mind, and likes to learn. He is charming. Music means his talent, basically shooting arrows at you.
To Spot is: BORING. OMG. I HATE YOU LFO. I KNOW THIS IS THE PERSONALITY I PREDICTED, BUT WTF IT'S BORING.

Notes: Human blunt...LMAO. So his talent is that he can shoot 5 arrows at the same time into the air arrows! This translation sucks.

Rudolf - 『幻忍』 石谷 忍<br /> <br /> 性別 : 男 <br /> 性格 : 為人泠漠,不愛談話,Rudolf - desk 』Point Mirage patient patient" br everywhere "br everywhere Sex : Male" br character : they are everywhere Jammu Ling, do not love talk
目無表情,難以捉摸。Head blankly, elusive.
絕技 : 刺虎、五連鏢 <br />Music : le Acanthogobius flavimanu, five consecutive 313 "br everywhere 

Basically: He is Jammu Ling, omg, xD. He is not talkative, so basically...quiet person. Head blankly either means he's stupid, which I certainly HOPE he isn't, or he seems to 'agree' to things without caring because it never affects him or something. He's a complex character, and very sly.
To Spot: Oh, so your typical ninja...but because of my giggly fandom, let's say he's a closet emo too. =D

Notes: Wth's acanthogobius flavimanu? *checks google* IT IS A FISH WITH A LARGE HEAD AND A LONG SKINNY BODY, THAT BASICALLY DESCRIBES RUDOLF'S APPEARANCE YAH. So Rudolf is a fish...or a reindeer. We don't know anymore. I won't comment on anymore.

John - 『魔術師』 小約翰<br /> <br /> 性別 : 男 <br /> 性格 : 斯文得體,熱愛研究,John-desk magician 』John" br everywhere "br everywhere Sex : Male" br character : He's already been everywhere, love,
為人風趣,開朗健談。Human witty, open, talkative.
絕技 : 防護牆、治療術。Music : a protective wall therapy.

Basically: He's a smart lovable person who's intelligent and talks too much. Or, say, that annoying geek behind you who don't shut up, and secretly inside everyone's minds they hate him and wish for him to die but don't say it out loud because he's seriously emotional and it would make him slit his wrists.
To Spot: Fah.

Notes: Okay, I would've accepted, "protective wall" but then I see therapy....
John: Hello! What seems to be the problem?
Man: I have horrible dreams of raping and murdering my wife and children!!! And most of my dreams come true! OMG! HELP ME!!!!
John: AH! Every mental problem can be solved by PROTECTIVE WALL!!! My new drug that protects you from all the EVIL AND BAD EMOTIONS! Like...like...SADNESS!! And...and...sorrow! And omg *starts crying and consumes an insane amount of his own drug, then seems 'normal' again* ALRIGHT! NEXT PATIENT?

Deep - 『劍俠』 達爾<br /> <br /> 性別 : 男 <br /> 性格 : 不怕困難,喜愛挑戰,Deep-desk fencer 』Darfur" br everywhere "br everywhere Sex : Male" br everywhere character : not afraid of difficulties and challenges of love,
為劍而生,外冷內熱。Health and sword, Raisin.
絕技 : 破空斬、霸皇斬 <br />Flying skills : chopped, chopped imperial hegemony "br everywhere

Basically: He's brave and well, wtf is challenges of love?
To Spot: ...

Notes: RAISINS! They are good and true! RAISINS! They are the grapes in you! RAISINS! NANANA RAISINS! They are the things that improve your STRENGTH! *nice guy pose*

Firen-fire fortunes were noble Philippine cloud "br everywhere" br everywhere Sex : Male "br everywhere character : the pursuit of power, and be good at fighting,
頗重情義,帶點不羈。Quite hospitable, and occasionally poetic.
絕技 : 火焰彈、烈火焚身。Music : flame bombs, burning the ages.

Basically: He wants POWER?! OMG! He's nice and poetic...poetic huh...
I like fire.
Yes I do.
It's quite dire.
That is true.
I am poetic.
Oh so much.
This is pathetic.
Such and such.
To Spot: I want him to have Dennis's personality with a little more arrogance to it. ><

Notes: Burning the ages, indeed Firen, burn history. We never learned anything from it, who cares anymore.


Freeze-ice fortunes were noble Fraser "br everywhere" br everywhere Sex : Male "br appearance everywhere : cool character, seething inside.
善於戰鬥,對邪惡絕不姑息。Good at fighting, evil must not be tolerated.
絕技 : 冰鋒之劍、白色龍捲。Music : ice front sword, white tornadoes.

Basically: What the hell? COOL character? So what? Your average Sasuke/Kai/Hiei/some random bastard with secretly a nice heart but hides it beneath their hotness and awesomeness so well that fangirls jump all over them?
To Spot: They're SO good with personalities, huh?

Note: My only complaint is "Fraser".

Anybody notice the "DESK" in Deep, Henry, John, and Rudolf? OMG THEY'RE ALL BROTHERS AND THEIR LAST NAME IS DESK!!! (It probably means they're weapon users but who cares, because this translation sucks) OMG THEY'RE BROTHERS WHOOT.

*goes to play LFO*

Wow.

Someone needs to remind me to rant on my LJ and not in the comments of other people's LJ's...xD.
I wrote all this as a response on something Shiroi wrote. xP:


Anyway, I don't think Neji's quotes are stupid, in fact only one or two felt misplaced. (And not the come one, either) Because it's really hard for the dubbing company to use words to match with how their mouth moves, because the movement of the mouth is originally supposed to match with Japanese, thus they used what they had in the English language. Also, it wasn't that bad.

However, I watched 60 and 61 in English on Youtube, and I do have one complaint.
IT WAS NOT NEJI'S VA THAT VOICED YOUNG NEJI!
I have experience with Neji's VA, AKA Enjyu, and Enjyu had the most ADORABLE little kid voice ever when there were flashbacks with him. And Enjyu's flashbacks are SAD, TOO.
Why did they use such an overused kid VA (that sounds a little too DEEP for a four year old) instead of Neji's AWESOME KIDDY VA?!?! It sounded so stupid! And instead of saying, "She's cute!" He said, "She's nice!" THAT TAKES OUT THE MOMENT AS WELL!
They BOTH FIT THE MOUTH MOVEMENTS TOO! I mean seriously, that dumb VA sounded so stupid saying, "FATHER!" And Enjyu, who's little kid flashbacks also involved a FATHER GREATLY, did his job BEAUTIFULLY. Hinata voices her own little kid voice!!

If this happens with Sasuke with such a dumb voice like that, I'll scream, as much as I don't like Sasuke, he definitely does not deserve a retarded cliche american kiddy voice like Neji did. THAT IS A CLEAR OUTRAGE!!!

Seriously, I am glad I watch the sub. I only watch the dub to check out how my favourite VA's are doing and they DENIED the POTENTIALLY CUTE NEJI VOICE and replaced it with all the LITTLE KID VOICES YOU HEAR IN EVERY SINGLE DISNEY MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry I ranted in your comments. Good day to you.

One more thing, if someone punched you while you were explaining how horrible your past was, you'd be pissed off. Seriously, the whole POINT of explaining is to tell them WHY you are acting like a suck-up prick. Besides, it is a VERY DIRTY TRICK to be hitting someone while they recount their bad memories. It would be CHEAP! I for one like explaining my actions so they don't think I'm being a complete moron for no reason like Neji's doing. I mean it's perfectly legal, but I believe in honour on the battlefield, which is like honour in checkers. If your opponent was talking to you about how Bob got his head stuck down the toilet, you would not do a double jump to eat his pieces while he's telling you that, you would do it when he was LOOKING AT THE GAME. Because that would be VERY RUDE. I play cards with my friends a lot, and we sometimes talk about other things, but we don't play the card while we're talking, perhaps we do but then we STOP TALKING.
But Naruto is not a person who would run and punch Neji while he tells him that his dad died, that's just plain mean. Neji probably wouldn't do the same even if he was a prick.

I mean you certainly do have a point, but nothing will ever be explained and the whole show would be PURE ACTION (AKA DBZ) without knowing why someone's like that.

It's called character development my friend.

Sorry again. >> Just opinions.
-
Sorry once again.

Naruto just got all 64 of his chakra holes closed, so attacking would be pretty stupid too. Besides, the time used while Neji is talking couldallow Naruto to THINK of a plan and defeat him, sort of like how Shino sounded completely arrogant at Zaku in the preliminaries, but it was merely a distraction, well this situation is similar but perhaps reversed. And, Neji has like, ABSOLUTE DEFENSE and 360degrees vision, so when you're badly injured and can barely stand, I think it is WISE, to try to heal standing there while hearing how crappy and emo-y your opponent's life is.

It is AFTER all this does Naruto's kyuubi chakra finally get in, when he becomes super angry. And BTW, Naruto TECHNICALLY, in a WAY, NEVER beat Neji, kyuubi did. Naruto should've lost there and then, but only stood up because of the kyuubi chakra. Also, Neji was being an arrogant bastard, so he wasn't doing his best while against Naruto, since fate is awesome and in his favour in this match.

Then he gets paralyzed in one hit in the jaw, which teaches him the lesson, leads to the Kidoumaru-spiderman fight where every Neji fangirl jumps around screaming and suddenly less people HATE Neji because they disliked his prickness of people (you are obviously not one of these people, as I think you like him both ways).

So not ONLY is it character development, it moves the story along, it is good for you Neji fangirls. For all I care Neji is overpowered, he just gets bad matches for him because people constantly have miracles to prevent them from losing to the 64 palms (Naruto's kyuubi and Kidoumaru's icky golden armour he made from sweat)

Neji fans should be happy, VERY HAPPY. And I being a semi-Neji fan since I am also half with Shino, am satisified, for now. Obviously we all know Neji (and seriously Shino) needs more manga time in the current manga arc.

Oh, another thing I hated about the dub (or in general, basically) was that Tenten would not shut up. I understand she was explaining Neji's skill but she wasn't even TALKING to anyone, except the screen, and that breaks the fourth wall. I mean if you're going to explain Neji's techniques, at least explain it to someone there and not DIRECTLY at the viewers on TV. That and I despise NejiTen (almost as much as ReiMao!) and Tenten's voice was annoying.

I am SO SORRY again. ><


MY BIRTHDAY PARTY IS ON THE 15TH! HOORAH! HOORAH! Oh, I started a VERY SLOW MOVING LF fanfic a few days ago. I figure I should write its plot and details or I'll forget here:

 

That is all.
