'Excel Saga' and 'Those Who Hunt Elves' are both better dubbed than subbed.

Yes, Dragonball/Z/GT are pretty bad in Japanese. Goku and Gohan both have VERY high pitched voices. Although I still find subbed superior because FUNimation destroyed the series by cutting most of the adult humor and changing the soundtrack.

Kenshin's voice is done by a girl in Japanese, but it actually fits how I imagined his voice very well. J Shanon Weaver, who voiced Kenshin for the Samurai X OVAs and movie, is also very good.
