For the most part yes, but they actually did a fairly decent job of the English dub this time compared to most of them. Like Kakashi, Sasuke, and a few others but Ochimaru(sp) sounds good on the Japanese version though I can't remember if he has been on the English dub, Sakura's voice is annoying on both versions.

I just flicked on the TV and they're going through the first 26 Episodes for the first time, I can tell they are trying to turn it into another DBZ but I just got annoyed so started watching the American Dub through the Chunin exams (I think they're still up to there) but it didn't get that far so I am now watching the fan subs, currently I am up to...

Spoiler:
bit when Itachi Uchiha comes to the hidden leaf village looking for Naruto and Jiraiya go to that town to look for the women who is to become the Fifth Hokage.


I mean I am not that far into it yet but at least I am not stuck way back when they fight Zabuza or on the Chunin exams right
