I have never seen a non-terribly pathetic dub of an anime show ever! I can only stand Dragon Ball Z (Only Z) Dubbed, because I grew up with it and I see the original Japanese version and American version of two completely different identities. Every single dubbed anime i have seen has had a bad scr...

Re: Shonen Jump offering DragonBall manga for free download!
[quote="SSj_Rambo"]It seems that Shonen Jump is offering downloads of single chapters of a select few popular manga series', including Dragonball!! It's available in both English and Japanese, but since I don't own the first chapter, I'm not sure if this is the same translation as VIZ, or ...

Yeah, at 2:56 and at 3:23, you can really hear the Goku come out. Sean Schemmel has played a number of different roles and never sounds the same twice. He has quite the vocal range, too. Even if you dislike his Goku (or his King Kai), you've gotta admit he's a fantastic VA. On another note, what the...

As much of a Dragon Ball fan as I am, this makes me happy as an even bigger One Piece fan. A truly epic tale. Right now, I'm in the Skypeia Arc in the Skypeia Saga, and the story is just freakin' amazing. One thing I like is how Oda (the author) seems to have story arcs planned ahead and throws litt...

Actually, Future Trunks displays a lot of Saiyan-Human hybrid characteristics. He turned Super Saiyan for the first time at about 13 (possibly earlier according to the manga's version of Trunks' story), and Gohan first transformed at about the age of 11 (give or take a year, damn RoSaT). He was stro...

Honestly, I can't imagine why people would hate the name H-ercule so much, though I do see both sides of the argument. Funimation really had no right to go in and change the character's name, since it's not their work (yes, I know they hold the LEGAL rights to it in the USA, but Funimation didn't wr...

....Depth? Compared to what? Paper? Indeed. Dragonballs plot is about as think as the paper it's printed on. Anyway, I think the reason most people think that Dragonball isn't a kids show is because they see tons of American kid shows like Ben 10 and then go to DBZ and see something like this . You...

I support The Abberation's theory. The first time, Goku had a golden opportunity and could not afford to pass it up. But the second time, he probably assumed that Raditz was injured and desperate. He figured that if he grabbed Raditz in a full nelson, Raditz wouldn't be able to power out before Picc...

And no company would ever get away with doing the kind of horrendous work you'll find in those scanslations. I don't follow Viz' OP release (Carlsen's Danish translations are far far ahead of them), but I did flip through a volume at Barnes and Noble once, and it seemed decent enough. Watch out for...
