IGN has what appears to be the final opening video sequence for the upcoming “Dragon Ball Z: Burst Limit” for the Xbox 360 and PS3.

Viz’s listings for the “Viz Big” (ombinus, three-in-one) releases of DB volume 1 and DBZ volume 1 now say 03 June 2008, as opposed to 06 May 2008 which they had previously been listed at — that is a delay of about a month.

Episode #0126 of the podcast is available for download! As you know, the “Chouzenshuu” set finally came in, so we gave some more thoughts on it during the course of the show. We also talked about all the big news from the week, hit up some great e-mails, and gave away that Commander Red two-disc

Episode #0125 of the podcast is available for download! It’s funny when we record on Friday and things happen over the next couple days that completely contradict statements made in the episode… like the Chôzenshû showing up, and Julian being alive. Anyway, this week Meri and I took a look at another fun inconsistency between

Episode #0124 of the podcast is available for download! We were out of town all weekend, so I recorded an episode Friday afternoon with Jeff. That’s right, no Meri or Julian! While it’s quite blasphemous, the episode that was intended to be short ended up being normal length, and the episode that was intended to

This is the kind of article and analysis I can get behind. Before anyone gets all upset and wonders how on Earth such obviously-die-hard-fans of the series can criticize it to such an extent, please remember the first part of this sentence: die-hard-fans.

Big thanks to Futabatei Shimei for digging up information on a new CD for us. With what will hopefully have better results than the “2005 Ver” releases of “CHA-LA HEAD-CHA-LA” and “Makafushigi Adventure!”, TEAM Entertainment will be releasing a “21st Century Version” mini-album consisting of the Dragon Ball opening and ending themes, an old image
