      One weird irony of the American Speed Racer dub is the original Japanese show Mach GoGoGo was an homage to Elvis and the dub obscured this connection a lot Go Mifune/Speed Racer is clearly dressed like Elvis' character Lucky Jackson from Leaving Las Vegas

      If you listen to the original theme song, it's much more clearly a pastiche of Elvis' song (the guitars are much heavier) The American version done by Danny Davis and the Nashville Brass is, as the name implies, much heavier on the brass (and more "cartoony")

      And the original VA for Go Mifune (Katsuji Mori) sounds a lot more like Elvis, with a smooth baritenor voice, while Peter Fernandez does a much more nasal "teenage" voice (Possibly because Fernandez, unlike Mori, was 40 irl and having to play a guy half his age)

      It's funny because Speed Racer is so famous for having a horrible dub but honestly in context it's actually pretty good There's bad dubs that are bad because of bad artistic decisions and open cultural disrespect The Speed Racer dub is bad because they gave them a week and $50

      You left out Hap Hazard, the guy whose little sister (Eloise Hazard) desperately needs an expensive operation but Speed famously refuses to throw the race and let him have the prize money

          What I love about that episode, aside from it going viral for the Speed Racer is a Sociopath meme, is that this takes place in a Latin American country and Pete Fernandez plays him with a thick accent but his name is still "Hap Hazard" I guess it's not MORE unrealistic
