Re: Funimation Buu release guess?

Once FUNimation's new channel comes out, I'm certain they'd start with Dragon Ball Super over Kai . It'd be more powerful marketing to launch a new channel with a new DB series premiering in English on their network as opposed to anywhere else. Aside from the new dub, the Buu saga has been rerelease...

Re: Funimation Buu release guess?

Maybe I'm not understanding how it works, but I thought AS owned the cable rights for Kai, and that's why Nicktoons doesn't air it. And the reason CW could air at the same time as Nicktoons is because CW isn't cable and commercial channel rights are different from cable rights. You are right, the r...

Re: Funimation Buu release guess?

Mike what are your thoughts on the subject? What do you expect or predict to come out of this with any amount of certainty? Yeah, I'd be curious to hear his thoughts as well. I don't really know anything about how FUNimation handles Dragon Ball announcements and don't know what they might be thinki...

Re: Funimation Buu release guess?

Let's all just take a deep breath here. This is just one of many other cons this summer, with many other opportunities for an announcement. Whether it be announced at a con or through their release schedule for the fall, the dub will be coming sometime in the near future (most likely 2016 now, but h...

Re: Funimation Buu release guess?

I think Super and Kai could potentially co-exist. If Super gets FUNi's broadcast dub treatment in, say, mid-to-late August, and Kai gets its first of six parts released the following month, then by the time next spring/summer rolls around the Kai releases will be wrapping up and the Super releases w...

Re: The International Version of the Buu-Kai Arc

Well FUNimation's release schedule for April came out just the other day, and unfortunately no news of Kai . Which means the earliest we can expect see the "The Final Chapters" is now May, so hopefully we hear something before then. http://www.fandompost.com/2015/01/18/funimation-sets-apri...

Re: Funimation Buu release guess?

As much as I'd love for FUNimation to go ahead skip the "parts" and release the series into their season sets, I just don't see it happening. The "parts" are the standard for their releases. Every property they release always comes out in "parts" first, then the more co...

Re: Funimation Buu release guess?

I would say probably spring 2015, probably around April or May. FUNimation usually begins releasing the first part of a new series around the spring season. FUNi currently has their release schedule filled through February 2015 though, so the earliest we can expect it (at this point, at least) is Ma...

Re: DBZ Kai coming to Toonami

True, but it's how the opening and closing credits are presented on the episode (now with the replacement Kikuchi score) posted on [adult swim] On Demand and on their website. If Toonami decides to use the full Attack on Titan opening tonight, this might be what we'll be seeing from now on. Though, ...

Re: DBZ Kai coming to Toonami

It's even possible that Episodes 96-98 have English masters with Yamamoto. After Toei acknowledged Yamamoto's plagiarism, episode 96 was hastily re-edited and got its multiple scenes edited out because of the earthquake, so the Yamamoto score version of the episode doesn't even exist from the begin...

Re: DBZ Kai coming to Toonami

I think it's odd that Toonami ended up getting the episodes with the Yamamoto score. Toei seemed to make it pretty clear that they wanted the score replaced as fast as possible, I think the episodes on Toonzai switched from Yamamoto to Kikuchi within a week or two after the whole scandal broke. You ...

Re: Should FUNimation dub Kai's Final Chapters' OP & ED Song

The songs will most likely remain the same for FUNimation's release. The fact that the songs are sung in English in the first place is indicative of Toei's intentions to market to an international audience. Though I do think they could still subtitle it. They subtitled Black Lagoon 's opening, and t...

Re: The International (/Korean) Version of the Buu-Kai Arc

And what about Nickelodeon? Doesn't it have the rights for DBZ Kai anymore? Apparently they no longer have the rights to Kai . Toonami announced on their Tumblr a while back that they will begin airing Kai in the fall, uncut, and from the beginning. So if "The Final Chapters" is going to ...

Re: Official On-Going DBZ 2013 Movie Thread: "Battle of Gods

Just got back from the English premiere, and I gotta say, it was awesome. The dub was fantastic and very faithful to the original script. My showing sold out too. The theater was packed, so much so my friend and I almost didn't get a seat (buying tickets in advance was a good decision)! The crowd er...

Re: The International (/Korean) Version of the Buu-Kai Arc

I'm really torn on this. I like OP/ED for the international releases a lot, but on the other hand the content of these episodes don't seem to be staying true to the initial rules of Kai . With what we've seen from the episodes airing on Fuji TV, especially with the pacing of the more recent episodes...

Re: Buu Saga Kai

I doubt Fight it out is made for promotional purposes since it was made in-house at Toei... Perhaps we will get a dub to Fight it out? Depends on what Funi does nowadays. Have they dubbed any theme songs since the One Piece situation? If not, they'll probably leave them intact, especially since the...
