Re: Ocean Studios' "Dragon Ball Kai" dub seems to be coming.
At this point, I think Nick Canada might be the broadcaster for Z Kai, since it was aired on Nicktoons in the USA. I was considering this as well, however a good majority of shows Nick Canada airs is stuff YTV is currently airing or has aired in the past, so I think they kind of go hand-in-hand. Te...

Re: Thoughts on the Beckett DBZ Magazines..
Quite fond memories, I didn't have too many issues but the ones I did I coveted for quite awhile, I recall having the very first issue (w/ a deformed looking Goku, even then as a 7 Year old I knew the art was bbaaaaddd ), an original DB throwback issue (the one w/ little Goku, Chi chi, and Kuririn o...

Re: First Dragon Ball movie you saw in Japanese?
DBZ Movie 1 when the first steelbook came out, growing up in an area where fansubs weren't floating around to my knowledge (hell, just finding a dubbed tape was a feat!) meant I was kind of late to the party, as I already bought some Orange bricks around the same time (fully aware of the issues, but...

Movie 11 I do like all of them to some degree though except #11, the only good scenes were the few times we see Goten, Trunks and #18 kick ass together. Also,...

Re: Differences between all of FUNi's DBZ releases
The English/Japanese music track does have a slight difference on the DBoxes: the Orange Bricks use the Mark Menza opening music from the movie dubs, while the Dboxes have Cha-La Head Cha-La as it should've in the first place.

Re: Androids
Gynoid isn't just being specific, it denotes a different sex. Andro is rooted in the greek word for "man", and "gyno" being from the word for woman. That is unless you think "android" is sort of like "mankind" encompasses both sexes, in which case you will pi...

Re: New FUNimation DragonBallZ.com
How is Trunks' "exact age not certain"? He outright says (in the Japanese version at least, not sure about the Kai dub) he's seventeen years old after he kills Freeza (meaning he would be somewhere around 18-20 after leaving the ROSAT). I understand they might be going off the original dub...

Re: Ocean Studios' "Dragon Ball Kai" dub seems to be coming.
To get the Ocean dub we will need to run around the star statue in Peaches castle 1000 times after we get 120 stars. Anyway if Dale Wilson does come back as Cell I wonder if he will be able to retain his campyness while still sounding legitimately good. I actually kinda wish they got David Kaye to ...

Re: Some simple questions about Dragon Ball GT
1. Nope, hard to hate something that can seen as an "optional sequel" to the manga 2. Seen everything but the Goku Jr special via two different dubs (Blue Water and Funi) 3. It's a love/hate sort of thing, as I said in another thread there are too many ideas being thrown around with very f...

Re: Piccolo doesn't look right on the Orange Bricks "Season
They probably didn't have any good "newer style" art for Saiyaman or SSJ2 Gohan at the time so they had to recycle some "generic" images of the usual characters instead, seeing as that Piccolo is the same image from one of the Ultimate Uncut volumes (Season Two Goku is the same d...

Re: Dragon Boxes coming in, will keep up to date...
Sad news, disk 22 of dragon box 4 has some scratches on it that causes minor freezing when piccolo powers up to fight 17, will continue watching to see if it's worse. :( Mine's like that too except it freezes near the end of the 17 fight around where Cell shows up. Even worse is that instead of it ...

Admittedly I haven't seen it in Japanese yet (waiting for the hopefully eventual Funi DBox release, but if not I'll guess I'll have to resort to getting the green bricks), but from what I've seen of it generally and not specific to either version (Dubbed or Original): Likes: - The animation style.
