Re: Non-thread-worthy discussions
I've seen a number of threads on this matter around here (including in this thread several years back) but I'm going to ask here instead of digging them up. I'm trying to rip my Dragon Boxes, but for some reason, sets 1-3 won't rip on any software I use (MakeMKV, Handbrake, even VLC has a hard time ...

Re: One Piece Remake, fans are so lucky...
Here's the thing: The announcement calls this adaptation "fresh but familiar" from the anime adaptation. Ideally Netflix is doing this because a bunch of people are now interested in the anime thanks to the live-action show. If the barrier of entry for newbies is the length of the anime a...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 100 - Official Discussion Thread
Alright, movie recap is over, original content starts back up next month. What do you think we're gonna get; Daima buildup, Black Frieza or something out of left field?

Re: One Piece Remake, fans are so lucky...
If WIT is in charge of this remake, I wonder how long it'll be before they give up and hand control of the series over to MAPPA.

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)
I still feel like the show is going to be set before Battle of Gods. After all, why isn't Beerus and Whis not with the others? They love eatting food with Bluma and the others? Seems to be leaning that way, yes. The party is probably going to be Videl and Gohan's wedding, which happens before BoG. ...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 99 - Official Discussion Thread
This chapter could have been resolved in 4 pages. It's like they're actively trying to make me stop liking Dragon Ball. I mean, we all know they can't succeed, but... It still really feels like Toyotaro and Toriyama are just killing time until Black Freeza can get underway. But, with Daima on the h...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)
Well, if the old DB Magic rumors are still true, this won't be much more than 13 episodes so it'll probably be the focus of the whole show.DragonBallFoodie wrote: ↑Sun Nov 19, 2023 4:59 am I don't know about de-aging the main characters, but I need to see what that's about and how long it will last.

Re: Why the Black Frieza saga will not be seen
Why d'you assume that any arc containing Black Freeza would end in this death? Super so far has shown exactly the opposite idea for this character. He will probably live on as long as he is profitable. Unless they really want to try and reset the status quo so that GT can still happen, then he need...

Re: Dragon Ball 2024 40th Anniversary Predictions
You know what, screw it, let's go big and wild. Find a way to solve all of the issues and make Dragon Ball Quest happen. Just straight up make a Dragon Quest game but with actual DB characters instead of Toriyama recycling character designs for similar characters.

Re: Dragon Ball 2024 40th Anniversary Predictions
It seems weird that there's been no official word on a new home release in Japan because I'm pretty sure that the defunct 2019 BD release was being pushed by both Funimation AND Toei. I think IF there was a new home release in the works, this would be a good time to do it. Of course, a new video mas...

Re: Where did the idea of Goku getting the heart virus on Yardat came from?
Well, it was an undiscovered virus before Goku had it because no treatment existed until after he died from it. The most logical solution is that he picked it up on Yardrat since no one else who was on Namek had it, unless he went to another planet in the 18-month journey home.

Re: Buying DBKai Bluray?
It is so bizarre that Funimation would allow anything DB related to slip away from them, but then again, Kai was the wrong product at the wrong time for DB so it kinda makes sense.

Re: When did YTV (Which aired Dragon Ball) stop airing anime entirely?
I just checked their website and they don't list any anime as part of their regular lineup, but I didn't check the full schedule so who knows. YTV seems to be going back to their roots as Canadian Nickelodeon and anime wasn't really a priority for Nick because of their vast lineup of original content.

Re: New Dragon Ball Z Blu-Rays From Crunchyroll Coming August 1st
It's still astounding to me that one of the most popular anime series in North America, probably even the world, is getting such shabby treatment by a company with the backing of the Sony corporation, while a distributor that appears to be five people in a storage unit are knocking it out of the par...

Re: New Dragon Ball Z Blu-Rays From Crunchyroll Coming August 1st
So, how are these blu rays? Probably some repackage of old Funimation stuff? I am turning 35 this year and I will probably die from old age first, than ever getting the show or at least the Z portion of it as a standard non-butchered english release. I have missed on the Z Dragon Boxes back then, a...

Re: The CW's ratings have officially reached rock bottom.
The CW was never really a popular major network to begin with, but they had a very dedicated audience. Of course, once streaming took off and they became a content farm for Netflix, that certainly helped balance the budget. Unfortunately, HBO Max decided they didn't want their stuff on a rival platf...

Re: Were there hard feelings between Linda Young and Funimation after she was recast?
Probably not, seeing as she's doing work for them to this day. Like, she was just in the Yu Yu Hakusho OVAs and Chainsaw Man.
