Kanzenshuu

I much prefer the Z score. I have enjoyed some parts of the Kai BGM, namely Goku's death and Goku and Piccolo's arrival against Raditz, but the music at the lighter moments feel totally out of place for me. I thought the fifth episode was the worst for this, too loud or just not the right tone. It h...

Out of all the cast members I thought Marsters was the best which is unfortunate as Piccolo is the most underused character. Marsters comes across well in the interview too. His enthusiasm is great.

Harmony Gold had a couple. Off the top of my head.
Goku was Zero and Karin was Whiskers.

- Debating whether to get GT.
- More manga.
- Getting the One Piece Funimation sets.
- Maybe buy more Daizenshuu.
- Getting the double features.

Other than that just odd bits of merchandise.

Watching the first episode again, I noticed the clip with Piccolo Daimao. They did not sensor out the hole in his body (though its only on for a short time). However, they censored Goku's hole against Ma-Junior but still left in some blood. My opinion on Kai censoring is that it isn't terrible as lo...

Funimation, I believe, got the H-word from the french dub. I think they should have called him Mr. Saturn or something similar (as pointed out in another thread). While it still sounds like the name, it doesn't offend people.

The Funimation translation is Kakarot, yet for some reason they kept Vegetto's name the same. My question is simply this. As a non-Japanese speaker, is the Funimation translation good or should they have kept Kakarotto as the name?

My favourite ending was the GT one. Although fitting that into the series would be strange, I'm sure if you changed the way the Boo fight ended to in some way incorporate Shen-Long and other small details you would get a nice ending to Z.

In the manga Pilaf isn't introduced until Goku, Bulma etc meet them. So anything in the anime before that is filler.

Those Madman DVDs look beautiful! You see guys, this is why we hate FUNimation. They have the same exact masters, but somehow, they manage to make them look like crap, when they could easily crop the damaged edges off like they did during the original DVD releases, and encode the video at a decent ...

Funimation have released 16:9 movies as double features at about $20.

I always thought her attitude change from Gohan to Goten was strange. As someone who was so focused on Gohan's studies, it seems that she gives up on Goten a little bit. My thoughts are that, maybe, we just didn't see her being strict to Goten. Another point which was touched on was Goten being allo...

I thought the Kuririn to Krillin was a good one. Kuririn is harder for the 'kiddies' to say.

The Frieza to Cell stuff was unspoiled. My most vivid memory is when I saw Trunks and thought who's that guy? I was also shocked when Kuririn died at the end of the 22nd Budokai.

I have both Madman fat-packs and my opinion on them is below: VIDEO: The quality isn't the best. The conversion (NTSC to PAL) gives a 'ghosting effect' where the frames combine. This is not apparent while watching however they are very noticable when its paused (shown below). It is certainly not unw...

Vegeta was born to the Royal bloodline. He would have gotten away from being sent away to fight if it was not for Freeza. Nappa was in charge of the Saiyan army so he would have been the guy to train and boss the weaker Saiyans around. I always did wonder about Radditz however; I don't think he was...

I'd really like a DBZ/One Piece crossover.

I remember watching a programme with The Simpsons and they said it took 9 months to create an episode. This, though, included planning and storyboard so for DragonBall you could probably cut a few weeks or months off that as they, of course, had the manga for the story.

I pick Tambourine, the first villain to kill anyone major.

Whenever something is popular and something new comes out you will always have people who 'hate' it and those who like it. Although with Kai I'm sure a smaller proportion will take exception when compared with the season sets.
