I was impressed with the dub....which I think says a LOT since I usually avoid dubs at all costs (so many fans of the Inuyasha dub yet I think it's one of the worst out there). The mispronounciation of Suzaku was to be expected - that happens ALL the time in dubs (just look at the Tsubasa dubs and the name murders there, Inuyasha even more :-p) But as far as actual casting goes, they did a fantastic job. Yeah, Lelouch sounds a little "soft" a lot, but his "I accept the terms of the contract" was veeeeeeery good (I won't say perfect, but it was close).
I LIKE Kallen's voice. So far anyway. That first line of hers sucked, but everything else she sounded just like I imagined she would in English. So I'm pleased. Everyone else sounded decent too - um, except C.C. She's tolerable, but the voice is off a little. I dunno.

OH yeah, and did anyone else who waited to see the dub on tv totally LOL when they rushed through the ending?
I was all "what the hell is wrong with the song?" and then when I noticed the images flashing by.....yeah. Classic. Made of fail, but classic anyway.

They did that with the OP as well. I got excited when the song was about to come on and then when it did, I was like "Wait--something is off!".

And the ending was awkward...seriously, it's only a few seconds more; Adult Swim isn't going to die because of that.

mmm I thought it seemed strange too, but I think it was just a taaad less noticable than the ending so I guess I thought I was losing it lol

meh I guess it's better than not showing them at all like CN used to do on toonami (I *hated* that :-p hehe)

I noticed the ED, but not the OP! =O

I thought I knew COLORS by heart, so when I was singing it [XD] and thought I said the wrong lyrics, I doubted myself, but apparently I wasn't the one who was off X3

AS has always been dumb about OPs and EDs T_T If they cut off part of the second ED (that and COLORS are my favorites), I think I'll punch a wall >_>
