Correct, it is not the dub that is on Disney XD. I didn't even know an alternate dub existed, let alone the fact that it would be this bad.



Whereas the XD version of Whisper (which is the same voice used in the 3DS game and Wibble Wobble) has this authoritative deep timbre that's juxtaposed with his overly expressive tonality and penchant for always being wrong, this version's whisper sounds like a prepubescent Meowth. I'm not even joking.



Jibanyan no longer sounds adorable, Nate no longer sounds relatably awkward, and the line I've been very vocal about being in love with from this series, the one line that always gets me to crack up no matter what... Komasan's "Oh my swirls!"... has been flat out removed (at least in the few instances I've checked, which have admittedly only been a couple of scenes.)



There's Japanese text for the titles and Yo-Kai banners when they show up, the songs that play are all in Japanese, and the original release date listed on Netflix says 2014.



Just a bummer all around. I hate the idea that so many kids will be checking out this cartoon for the first time and seeing the severely watered down version.
