Re: OG Z vs Kai - Subtitled Version
Japanese Kai is definitely a bit of downgrade from Japanese Z but its still overall better than Funi Kai Although I wouldn't recommend Kai in any language. I personally love Kai's English dub. If you're watching DBZ in Japanese then I wouldn’t watch the Kai version of that. It's my opinion but I do...

The Last 3 Movies Been Z Era Villians, Opinions?
Howdy! Something that came to my attention is that the last 3 movies have been DBZ villians. Cell Max while not Cell himself...is a remastered version of him for lack of better term. Broly is a remake of Broly(movie 7). Freeza...well everybody knows Freeza. Now prior to modern Dragon Ball, the movie...

Re: What if Masako Nozawa dies? (God forbid)
Not to be that guy and be a pretend moderator..but we recently had a topic less than a month ago about the Japanese cast in general. General consensus seems to be that they will just move on and replace her. Nature of the business. Especially with an older series like Dragon Ball https://www.kanzens...

Re: The Current SAG AFTRA strike and dubbing
The pessimist in me says that this could be a forever strike. Why? Because the studios LOVE AI. They won't stop gushing over it. AI has nothing to do why people are on strike. My cousin works for the film industry and has told me that payment is why people are on strike. AI does play a part in the ...

Re: Kai coming to Hulu on July 1, 2023
Reason #2547 why Dragon Ball is a cursed franchise. How long has the franchise been cursed? The day it was licensed through nepotism Howdy. Do you mind explaining how nepotism plays a role in this? I generally don't know the history of Dragon Ball's releases. I always rewatched Dragon Ball via Yout...

Dragon Ball Fandom Treatment of Each Other

Cure Dragon, like me, is exceptionally socially awkward and has a hard time expressing and explaining himself in the threads well enough. This is something I struggle about an...

Re: Racism in the Dragon Ball fandom
Dragon Ball is popular among Non Japanese people. It's loved by other Asians, the African(Black) Diaspora, Latinos, European Diaspora, and everything in between. While I do think the fan base as whole isn't intentionally racist, there is more ignorance or accidental racism within the fan base. It ha...

Re: Anyone here wish they did a spin off series on U6
If I'm being honest, no. If Dragon Ball ever had a spin off I don't want it to about Saiyans. Our main character is a Saiyan. His rival is The Prince of All Saiyans. His son is a Biracial who switches from Super Saiyan to "Fighting as an Earthling" depending on whatever the writing staff t...

Re: Aren't they worrying the original Seiyuu's not going to be with us forever?
I know it's "easy" to replace voice actors but the problem is with Japanese conservative culture.. I've heard in the past they simply stopped producing certain animes if it's iconic seiyuu's died, out of "respect". Hope this will not be the case with Dragon Ball if main voice ac...

Re: DBS Anime Future
Potential hurdles right now (all conjecture): DB appears to be doing fine financially just based on games, films, manga and merch, so the resources and timeslot that might be spent on a new anime would be better spent cementing other properties A direct sequel to the first run of Super would be too...

Re: What colour would you like the next SSJ transformation to have?
Who cares if they keep introducing more transformations? They can literally do both transformations and battle strategies. Tomioka Atsuhiro proved as much when Super Saiyan Blue Gokuu was fighting Jiren in Dragon Ball Super Episode #123 . They should do both so that we can get both . I prefer a les...

Re: What colour would you like the next SSJ transformation to have?
I too think they need to stop with the transformations and get back into more skill based fights. All these SSJ forms is ridiculous They need to have a Baltimore Blue Crab transformation. The hair is a gradient that goes from blue to red just like a crab gettin steamed from blue to red. The aura is...

Is Norihito Sumitomo A Good Middle-Ground Between Kikuchi, Kenji Yamamoto, and Bruce Faulconer?
Howdy! I will like to start to say that this isn't a debate about which composer is better. This isn't the thread for that. Before Dragon Ball Super existed I always felt like many English-dub fans liked Kenji Yamamoto because it was in between Kikuchi and Faulconer. The best of both worlds. Granted...

Re: Let's be real. Future Trunks is wasted potential
To be fair he did defeat the Androids and Cell in his timeline in the end. He got the happy ending he deserved until DBS did him dirty and screwed it up. That was pretty cool, I admit but to me the damage was already done. It would have been so much cooler if he kept using the sword. Maybe infuse i...
