- (FBE) We asked die hard anime fans to go head to head
performing their favorite characters' lines
in real time from memory.
This is the Impossible Anime Dubbing Challenge.
- I wanna be a voice actor, that seems really cool,
and just anime in general, I [censored] love anime.
- Actually being an anime watcher,
and that's literally the only thing I watch,
I feel like this will be very easy until we get to it.
- It's the memorization that's really gonna throw me off,
'cause if I forget,
I'm gonna get flustered, I already know it.
- Even if I don't win,
I feel like I'm just gonna have fun with this one.
- (FBE) Matthew, do you watch any anime?
- Oh, not too much, no, not really, I'm gonna be honest.
I respect it though.
- (FBE) Yikes, well, are you ready to learn your lines?
- Yes! - Let's rock and roll.
♪ (rock music) ♪
- Ooh, ooh! - This is such a good scene.
- Oh, is that gonna be Naruto?
- I don't know if I've seen this episode.
- I need to cut you out of my life.
- This is like so much towards the end,
when Sasuke already has his Rinnegan.
I'm not gonna remember the relationship between them two.
- Ooh, ooh!
- Sasuke!
Good thing I have Sasuke, I love Sasuke.
- (FBE) How hard's it gonna be to say those lines from memory?
- That one is difficult. That one's gonna be hard!
How am I supposed to put that in my own words if I forget?
- I might just make things up, Jaxon. - That's fine, fine by me,
and I'll just go along with it. - Yeah.
- In the dub, a girl does voice Naruto.
- Right!
- So I think you should be fine. - Same as Ash Ketchum,
but I hope I can get that like... - Ash Ketchum!
- Yeah! (both laugh)
- I know your heart, and you know mine Naruto!
- I know your heart, and you know mine.
(Emily laughs)
I need to cut you out of my life, Naruto.
- I've always loved you, Sasuke.
- Naruto, your [censored] is so nice right now.
- And you still wanna fight me?
- More, because it's you. I have to cut you out of my life.
- I have to cut you out of my life.
- But there's no guarantee that the world you will rebuild
will be the same, something like that?
I don't know.
- You know, there's no guarantee that severing the world of the past,
that it won't be like it was.
- I'll continue to keep watch over the world
so it doesn't happen.
- I know I have to watch over that world, so it doesn't.
- I don't know the last part. (both laugh)
I don't know that last part.
- Just because you want to rebuild this world
doesn't mean it's gonna turn out the way you want.
I love you so much.
And Sakura does too. (Jaxon laughs)
- God Naruto, you talk so nice. Thank you very much.
But I need to cut you out, like I just said.
- That's fine with me. (both laugh)
- That [censored] difficult, oh my God.
Once I started to do the oh, there's no guarantee,
I thought oh, I kinda got it,
but then once it got to the end, I was like no, I have no idea.
I have no idea.

- Okay, One Piece. - One Piece!
- This is like early on, before he even met Nami.
He's so sassy, I love Monkey.
- (laughs) Good luck, Red.
- (laughs) That's perfect. - Nice.
- Like, I don't know what's going on, but cool.
- You got 900 episodes if you wanna watch it.
- Okay, bring it.
- You beat people with sabers barehanded?
- Hey, you're that, who?
- Hey, you're the guy who beats up people with their spear!
- Uh, who are you again?
- I'm Nami, hey, do you wanna team up with me?
- I'm a thief who steals from pirates.
The name's Nami, wanna team up?
- Huh, why would I want to team up with you?
No thank you.
- Uh, nah, I think I'm alright. (Emily laughs)
- No, I don't feel like teaming up with you right now.
- (FBE) Guys, that was a perfect score for both of you.
Congratulations! - Let's go!
- Yeah, we're going in strong. - Hey, pound it, pound it.
- That's right. (laughs)
- Damn, I should have threw some voices in there.
- I definitely got a little more in character than I expected.
- (FBE) The only one you missed
was I'm a thief who steals from pirates.
- That's right, I'm a thief who steals from pirates, yes.
Well, I'm gonna get zero in this next round,
I know that for sure.
♪ (rock music) ♪
- Oh Bleach, I love Bleach.
- I get all my favorite characters, that's pretty sweet.
- Why are you here, why are you still alive?
- He's got like one of the coolest weapons in the show.
- This is the easiest one for me.
- Okay, let's try it. (Matthew laughs)
- Why are you here?
- Ugh, because I'm your lieutenant.
- Because, I am your lieutenant.
- You're probably wondering why, how is he still alive?
- Why are you still alive?
That's what you're probably thinking, huh?
- No way.
If you die, how could I aim to be stronger than you?
- No way, because if you die, how can I aim to be stronger than you?
- No way, because if you die, then who would I have to compete with?
Something like that. (laughs)
- Something, I mean... - (FBE) Perfect scores!
- Yo, yeah! - Oh sweet! (laughs)
- I can't do a deep voice very well.
I'm, peppy characters, whoa! Ha ha, funny, yeah!
- (FBE) Ed, I did have to deduct a point for why are you still alive?
That's probably what you're thinking, huh?
Since you sort of inverted the meaning a little bit.
- Oh.
- We got it, but you're going down, Ed.
- I'll take it.
- (FBE) Will, you were like stone serious, I felt.
I felt the drama. (both laugh)
- I was like I'm your lieutenant. - He was like...
- No, no way! - I'm serious bro,
what are you talking about? (laughs)
♪ (rock music) ♪
- Oh! - Cells at Work. (laughs)
- I have no idea what anime this is. I've never seen this.
- We sure do run into each other a lot.
- Okay, that one I'm pretty sure I got.
- I can do Red Blood Cell, no problem.
- White Blood Cell?
- White Blood Cell, is that you?
- We sure do run into each other a lot.
- We run into each other a lot.
- This is fresh tea!
- Are you lost again?
- This is fresh tea!
- What are you trying to do here, anyway?
- (FBE) We got perfect scores there.
- Alright. - Yay.
- (FBE) Perfect scores. - Gimme my point!
- (FBE) Emily, your rendition of White Blood Cell
was, I think, legendary.
- Ah! (speaks in foreign language)
(both laugh)
♪ (rock music) ♪
- Oh yay! - Oh, okay.
- Pokemon? (laughs) - Oh wow!
- This must be like the newer stuff.
- This is my partner, Pikachu. Pikachu!
- Aw geez, okay, okay okay. Hopefully I got this.
- Oh no, I think Matthew won this one.
I, for some reason, just forgot.
- Let's do it!
- (laughs) You're quite the character!
- Oh, why's that? - I accept!
Accept being your friend. - (laughs) Let's be friends.
- I'm Go from Kuchiba City!
- I'm Satoshi from Masara Town!
And this is my buddy, Pikachu!
Nice to meet you. - It's nice to meet you!

- Ah [censored], I'm Go from Kuchiba City.
- (laughs) Nice to meet ya. - It's nice to meet you!
(both laugh)
- I just went over your lines!
- I'm so sorry, I butchered it!
- Oh my God!
- I thought that one was one of the easiest ones too,
but I guess not, that was hard.
- I think you just missed like one line in the middle, Ed.
- Yeah, like it jumped really quick in the middle, I think.
Like, it blipped like a second, and I didn't really get it.
- Yeah it did, it was really quick. (laughs)
♪ (rock music) ♪

- Woo! (bell rings)
- Hey, that was a good one though. - Gimme that crown!
- That was a good game. - Oh yeah, I'll give you that.
- That was a good one.
- (FBE) Matthew, you don't watch anime and you won.
Are you surprised?
- Very surprised, and I've never tried memorizing lines ever.
This was totally new, but hey,
I have to catch up on my anime now.
- (FBE) Emily, big question.
If Jaxon goes into voice acting, will you be his scene partner?
- Oh heck yeah, if he would have me!
- Hell yeah, that's how we do it!
