Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Crunchyroll Home Release Thread

I think Funimation decided years ago that they were not doing "collection" or "season" sets for Super and Crunchyroll is following suit. I'm confident these Wal-mart sets are the closest we'll get for a long time, and they only really exist because.. it's Wal-mart. It's just like...

Re: What chance would Dragon Ball 86 have it was remade today?

I don't expect this to happen as every other facet of the franchise seems to be serving as profitable enough right now. That said, I would certainly be in favor of it. It's true that the original adaptations have a unique style and charm to them, but they'd still be around, and if a new version ende...

Re: Walmart Exclusive Dragon Ball Z Bluray sets

I'm hesitant to jump on this before we know for sure what discs they are, but I guess the worst case scenario is that I blow $100 and can resell them at a slight loss. I still feel the 30A discs are inherently flawed in appearance, they look so "watercolor" for lack of better term, but at ...

Re: 4:3 Steelbooks - Inconsistent Subtitles?

Like most people have already said, this is a practice plenty of anime licensors partake in, though Funimation has been pretty inconsistent about it, themselves. I don't believe they do it anymore, but in this case I think they just re-used the subtitle tracks from their previous Blu-ray seasons, wh...

Re: The Broli movie will use dub names in its subtitles, at Toei's request. Could this become the new "standard"?

I watched the whole thing through today so for anyone curious, I can list all the names used that might be of interest, that haven’t been acknowledged already. Goku is called Son Goku in the subtitles whenever necessary Shen Long is called Shenron Kakarot (instead of Simmons’ usual Kakarrot) And I b...

JohnnyCashKami wrote: Sun Apr 14, 2019 12:25 am The dub very rarely uses Son Goku (much less Son Gohan and Son Goten) so does it mean it'll be always Goku, Gohan and Goten? This is an enormous downgrade.
Don't think it'll go that far. The Crunchyroll subtitles used "Son Goku" after all

Funimation just came out with their own Blu-ray of it, which is what he's talking about. General consensus is, compared to the old Sony BD, audio's an improvement thanks to lossless 5.1 tracks but video is a downgrade.

Re: "Broly - The Legendary Super Saiyan" & more coming to U.S. Theaters later this year!

In fact, doesn't Funimation do both subtitled and dubbed screenings for most of their theatrical runs of anime films? Making Dragon Ball the exception? Please correct me if I'm wrong. The only exceptions I know of are Dragon Ball and One Piece. Makes me wonder if maybe Toei's not allowing them to d...

Re: "Broly - The Legendary Super Saiyan" & more coming to U.S. Theaters later this year!

I sincerely hope that this is a typo. I was banking hard on Japanese screenings. I mean, I don't mind watching Broly in English (so long as it's Kikuchi), but I can't deal with the dubs for Bardock and Fusion Reborn. Best case scenario, these are, in fact, redubs, and I'm completely wrong about the...

Re: Dub lines that you find interesting.

Do dubs other than english count? I'd certainly be interested in hearing about them, as long as you explain it in English :) I always found it odd that they would so often say you needed to "let go of your anger" to become Super Saiyan, even though they were clearly transforming out of an...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" FUNimation Dub Official Discussion Thread

I'm not necessarily against keeping "Hakai", but I feel like if I were to approach it from an outsider's perspective, it doesn't carry the same impact when you don't know what it means. Just my opinion, I'm cool with it either way.

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" FUNimation Dub Official Discussion Thread

There are plenty of times this dub has made changes that are much worse, in my opinion. “I’m the star of this damn show” is no harm done. We already saw how determined Vegeta was to be the one to defeat Black. Yeah, it’s not what he said, but it’s also not distracting or damaging in the slightest.
