Actually, since someone mentioned piracy websites, 9anime.to actually has the Dragon Box version uploaded on their site, listed as "Dragon Ball Z (Uncropped)." It's subbed only, but for most users here that probably won't be a problem.

I'm also glad this thread isn't just blind Nozawa worship. I get that she's the original voice, but that doesn't mean she's the only valid voice. And that's not even getting into the "is it a good idea for a 30 year old man to be voiced by a 60 year old woman" argument. As for me personall...

I'm a big fan of the Angels from Shin Seiki Evangelion, so I think enemies like Ramiel and Armisael would be cool because they would change how Gokuu and the others have to fight while also being simple to draw. So glad someone else is an Eva fan in this forum. I agree, the Angels are pretty cool a...

I mean, Chichi doesn't want her four-year-old to end up like her unemployed husband and his buddies (Kurilin, Yajirobe, Roshi, Oolong, etc., etc.). I think it's quite reasonable that a normal parent would choose to have their young child to go into academia than running off into the woods to chase ...

To a certain extent. I haven't watched them back-to-back or anything but from what I understand they kept a majority of the filler to get to a designated episode count, meaning things like "Happy Ghost Dabura in Heaven with Videl and Chi-Chi looking for Gohan" and "Goku's always late...

It was anime-only. As I've noted a couple of times now, there are many moments in the Buu Arc that feel like they SHOULD have been in the manga, but actually weren't. Things like Videl's ki training, Goku meeting Goten, Trunks searching for the Dragon Radar, Boo killing everyone at the Lookout, Got...

Yeah, I have to agree that Bulma is pretty obviously better than Chi-Chi, from both a writing and likability standpoint. I mean, Bulma is a fleshed-out character with a positive, proactive role in the story, while Chi-Chi’s only two character traits are yelling and hating martial arts. And like some...

Okay, sorry for making assumptions then. I guess the most negative comments stand out most. Like I said, I should probably shut up.

It was to serve as an example of Goku's nudity. It is frequently shown in original DB (also in DBGT btw) and for many years no one cared because no one would sexualize babies, but apparently that changed. The Nirvana baby cover album came out in 1991, those years are far behind, now if you put kids...

1. Toriyama is not the only creative force for the series. I'm here for the work of many people, Toriyama include. 2. Criticism makes DB better. I know Toriyama isn't the only guy behind the show, but you've made equally hateful comments towards other people associated with the franchise. And a lot...

Toriyama's writing of women is just as shitty as his writing of men Why are you a Dragon Ball fan, exactly? Not trying to take the piss, just genuinely curious because of how much you seem to hate anyone associated with the show. If you seriously think Dragon Ball is a horribly-written pile of bigo...

You're better off tracking down the Saban/Ocean releases and then switching to the original broadcast Season 3 and onwards. If you're gonna watch dubbed. Lol no. I have my gripes with the Ultimate Uncut and revised dubs, but they’re much better than those piles of garbage. I can’t recommend the Sab...

I have to admit, some of those one-liners in the Saban dub are actually pretty funny. I remember reading the "cowardice, bad haircuts, and military insurrection" quote before, and I thought it was a quote from Abridged. It's really crappy as a serious dub, though.

Checking back on this thread after a long while, and Jesus Christ it's even worse than it was before. Like, what the hell does Super being edited in Latin America have to do with the moral implications of socialism? Stuff like this is why we need an off-topic section.

My heart stopped when I read the news a few minutes ago. Such a shame: Ayres was a great actor, and he captured Frieza’s personality incredibly well. Any future installments of the dub just won’t feel the same without him. See you in the next dimension, Lord Frieza.

Yeah, let's not even start with the can of worms that is the Vic allegations. I have no idea whether he really is a creep or not, I'm just tired of the flame war that mentioning his name inevitably causes.

I thought Season 2 doesn't start until October 10th? What's this rating for? It's for a TV miniseries re-edit of the "Mugen Train" movie that broke box office records last year. I guess the movie's just as insanely popular on TV as it was in theatres. I honestly have no clue why Demon Sla...

I honestly have no idea why people are still hoping for a redub. I mean, even if they stuck to the original series, Z, and GT, it would still be 508 episodes, 3 specials, and 17 movies they would have to dub. No dubbing studio would try dubbing such an inhuman amount of material in a reasonable time...

The job of a dub isn't to sound like the original. The so much of the way people are judging the dub actors is by how closely they resemble the OG actors and that';s not fair. That's not their job. Their job is to play the character because that's what acting is. Mimicry is hollow. Ayres isn't grea...

On the subject of YYH, I do have to agree that the dub there still includes an insane amount of rewrites, almost as many as in the DBZ dub. But I think the reason why people like that dub is the same reason why I enjoy the Cell and Buu dubs more than the Frieza and Android dubs: The changes they mak...
