I never found any scene particularly too gruesome. Maybe that's just because I'm a desensitized freak. The only moment I really thought went too far was Videl being beaten to a bloody pulp at the tournament but it wasn't exactly the gore that made me cringe there. Oh I forgot about that scene, but ...

Let's say this get picks up by FUNimation... do you think that maybe CN would want dibs? Or are they done with anything that's not Naruto? Cartoon Network isn't going to want to it. It's obvious they're moving away from anime. I'd laugh if 4kids aired it. We might get it on the Funimation channel. ...

With all the ambushing of Dragon Ball Z stuff, I wouldn't be surprised if we see something like this: *Cheap rock music plays* Chris Sabat's voice: "Get ready for the Evolution of a classic..." *A very Americanized-looking cartoon with something that resembles Goku and Bulma is playing* S...

you just said a whole lot... to not really say anything. It's been established that DBZ was published in shonen jump, meant for ages 10-18 in Japan. And if you're going to bring up culture, at least get the facts straight and stop throwing your opinion everywhere. When you turn 13 in America, you ar...

For those of you saying Dragonball Z isn't very deep, I'm not entirely disagreeing with you, but I'd like to share a little anecdote with you guys. I have a little 8 year-old stepbrother who loves dbz right now (and a 3 year old, they both got it from me most definitely) and they watch dbz with me v...

So the guy who composed battle point unlimited will be doing the music now. That is my favorite piece of work for the Japanese BGM, so I'm pretty excited for that.

I would just hope the BGM will not be as repetitive as the current version.

Sorry guys, I obviously thought wrong. I had thought that because of the bood, swearing, perverted roshi moments and other bits and pieces that dragonball was in a way, made for adults. I had thought it was like The Simpsons... in a way. With the simpsons, the show was origionally intended for adul...

DB is a kids show in Japan, and a show for teens in the U.S. due to the cultural divide. I'm pretty sure everyone agrees on that.

The worst coloring choice of all, though, is the yellow hair of a Super Saiyan. So ugly and boring. They look much better in their black-haired base forms. So do you like the "Genji" super saiyan, the one in the otherworld tournament saga where Goku retains his black hair as a super saiya...

*sighs* From now on, I'm just gonna keep my opinion on any dub line to myself. :roll: No, don't do that, you pointed out an added line and pick out great quotes from the dub. Your opinion didn't hurt anyone, and if anything you seem to be the most upset over an argument you aren't even in. Just don...

This is what I was referring to. I know it may not be all that likeable, but I guess I just associate it with my favorite character, Trunks, and it just sounds awesome to me. Thank you. :D

Hotrod, I think that song you were talking about is the theme that was used once when Trunks turn SSJ. I mean't that the Movie 5 bgm was first used in the episode when Trunks turn SSJ and kill Freeza. Not in that scene. The song you were talking about is Battlepoint unlimited, I think, I could be m...

Re: Dragonball Z unique movie Japanese background music.

Movie 5 = This music if famous for having a very Spanish feel, the songs are really catchy and used really well on the fight scenes. First used when Trunks turn SSJ and kill Freeza. I love that song, but I still haven't been able to find out the name of it. Are you sure that It's used in movie 5? I...

How can you say that I child can't comprehend things like Cell's biology when the anime itself does nothing more than say that he has cells from other fighters?

Yeah, dragonball is a kids show. That's why they had to heavily edit and even completely cut episodes to MAKE IT SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN. I'd love to see a child grasp any one of the complex concepts conveyed in the Japanese version of the show. Dragonball is not a show for children, it is a show for...
