Re: Why are the English dubisms far too ingrained into the fandom?

Yeah, THAT is bullying, no ifs or buts about it. Dubs get a bad rap and treating people the way Adamant did is absolutely unnaceptable.

I think we CAN dislike the sub OR sub without the insults, its the insults that go too far, not just disliking or liking anything.

Re: Why are the English dubisms far too ingrained into the fandom?

To be honest, I would NOT say mocking Goku's voice is as innocent as Masenko Ha thinks it is, not only mocking fans of the original version BUT ALSO NOZAWA. I mean, if I talk about Nadolny's Gohan sounding like a chainsmoker or mock the Funimation's cast idea that forced raspy tough guy voice=actin...

Re: Why are the English dubisms far too ingrained into the fandom?

Over (a really short period of) time I've come to realize that this is the most sensible position to hold considering that it goes both ways, with the problems of one side mocked by the other. I would however like to ask though, when it concerns a lot of plain unnecessary elements such as bad home ...

Re: Why are the English dubisms far too ingrained into the fandom?

But mocking anything is wrong, period. Pointing out what you dislike about something is fine, but that's where the line should be drawn.

Re: Is Goku hitting his head a relevant detail for his character anymore?

You could argue the head bump explanation was always pointless. Goku was a baby or toddler when he came to earth he wasn't going to remember shit. Goku becoming peaceful could have just easily been explained away as Grandpa Gohan's influence. I know you didnt specifically quote me but this is exact...

Re: Is Goku hitting his head a relevant detail for his character anymore?

I think the head bump gets so much love because it got that filler only sequence in the anime, much like "Gohan is a rebellious kid who loathes studying" is an anime invention, that sequence was probably not a thing in the manga. EDIT: I know the head bump was in the manga narration but I ...

Re: Is Goku hitting his head a relevant detail for his character anymore?

I think the reason Goku acted out as a baby in the new continuity is because he didnt accept Grandpa Gohan as a parent and wanted his old parents back, once he hit his head he forgot them and was able to accept Grandpa Gohan.

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

Yea…good times lol I would say the main difference is that Vegeta had an identifiable character arc where he had to atone for his sins and learn to make peace with his life on Earth. Which is why his speech at the end of the Buu arc is often cited as being one of the best moments in the series. I'm...

Re: Do Toei no longer license Z to broadcasters in favour of Kai?

I was on reddit today reading through the reactions to Toonami Rewind, and I came across an interesting comment made by 2 separate people. Supposedly Toei no longer offer the license to broadcast original Z, and now only offer the license for Kai. Neither of these people provided a source, but one ...

Goku and why Roshi was more right than we ever could imagine.

Re: The Kix Broadcast of Kai

I really wish Pop (Which is THE highest rated Traditional Kids Channel, the last of its kind) aired Ocean Kai. Sure, Funi Kai did 44 but I think if they aired Ocean on Pop it could reach heights like 255k which is INSANE in the UK. For comparison, the legendary tv run of DBZ Topped at 300k on cartoo...

Re: DragonBall Super in Greece

Great to see Super Hero still getting dubs. Hopefully Greece gets Daima soon. I think Daima will INDEED be the first time Dragon Ball will be a world wide product, the usual suspects like USA And Latin America are givens but I think they will also be doing dubs for Greece and even Poland, plus all ...

I think I was wrong. DBZKai's ratings must have been good enough to make Adult Swim give it A WHOLE HOUR on their new block.
