Dub moments you find amusing rather than annoying/bothersome.

Whether it's to censor something intense or make the show more intuned to the countries culture, edits are usually received with frustration and scorn.

But every now and then, there are moments which can and are unintentionally hilarious. You know you should be disappointed, but you can't help by find it amusing.

For myself:
1. DBZ/DBGT: Since the villains are occasionally shown in their afterlife, they naturally show Hell in the show. Since the place is unallowed in a children's show, we get Home For Infinite Losers (HFIL). Whether it's to tone down things to be child friend, amusingly enough it does fit the humorous aspects of the Dragonball world more than Hell.

2. Digimon Savers/Data Squad: Episode 7 has an amusement park attacked by a Nanimon (Borab type Digimon). For whatever reasons, it was decided that a Borab based Digimon was unacceptable. So rather than just skipping the episode, we get a Digimon chocked full of Vitamin C, or simply Citramon. I can't even explain why I like it. It's just funny.
 
does every moment in duel masters 1.0 count? There's just far too many in that series
for instance
a moment with kokojo and shobu in their first battle (I believe) and kokojo says I am vengeance I am the night I am...and shobu cuts him off saying wrong network
gah so many moments!
 
Sailor Moon:
The girls arguing who gets to play Snow White, with Jupiter pointing to her chest.

Original: Because I have the biggest breasts!
Dub: Because I have the greatest talent!
 
Anything that came out of Might Guy's mouth in his debut episode of the Naruto dub. He's so hilariously over the top, and has such amusing extra bits of dialogue.

"RUN... RUN INTO THE SETTING SUN! RUN AND SUFFER.... but don't mess up your hair."
 
From Rahxephon:

"Get me...Col. Cookie!"

I also loved Citramon,not only is he a sillier and fun character than the original, but its basically Don Patch making a cameo!


Thus a Crowing Moment of Awesome

Disco Guns, mostly because it just so kooky and glowing that it just becomes awesome. Also, it actually gets mentioned in the revised Anime Encyclopedia!
 
In the episode where Ash and his frienRAB are being chased by that Mankey, Brock throws what is referred as a donut, instead of a rice ball like this:

Brock: "Donut go!"

Mankey crushes the "donut"

Brock: "Ah! I wasted a donut."

It might have been the way Eric Stuart delivered that line, but it just sounded so funny when I watched it earlier today. It might also help that I wasn't really annoyed with the way 4KiRAB edited the riceballs in their dubs, but this still was pretty funny to me.
