The quality of the Bardock special isn't dependent on if it is canon. If people disregard it, that's there loss, but I don't think that many will. It's not that hard to find. I'm not really seeing anything particularly about the pacing specifically. Take a look at the back of the box for the first ...

The Bardock special may not be canon anymore. How many people really care that much if it is in continuity with the rest of the story or do they care more that it's a good story? Kai's appeal wasn't about "canon" it was about pacing. Something can still be canon but have horrible pacing. ...

Most casual franchises in the past have very little continuity in order to make the show more accessible to newcomers just jumping in. I think you are confusing the issue of continuity and serialization. Star Trek: TOS wasn't heavily serialized, but the show had a continuity. I was't confusing them...

I can't remember what exactly caused the epiphany, if you can call it that, but not that long ago, I realized that few people actually care about what is or isn't canon - certainly not enough to make much of a difference in anyone's bank account. Film goers don't care if Bond movies have any contin...

This is actually quite surprising. I was fully expecting VIZ to milk this release for all its worth and put out a volume 5 and 6 with 2 volumes each. Now I'm left wondering if they'll continue this style and release 2 four in ones for the end of Z. If so, then we'll actually benefit from the splitti...

Wait a second VIZ, a PAPERPACK for 24.99? Aren't the Hardbacks usually in this price range? The SJ Profiles Book series are usually $14.99, and the Hardback Art Books usually run around $19.99 - 24.99. Some Ghibli art books go for around $29.99-$34.99, but since this is supposed to be a SJ property,...

Well its a disc so of course its going to have a hole in it. What do you mean "why does the ring interupt the image"? If you have a image on a disc the hole is going to interupt it. Its to be expected. :shock: I don't think he means the hole in the disc, but the ring around the hole. For ...

I recently mentioned to some of my friends that this movie was gonna be made. Whether they were dub fans who had watched it casually on TV back in the day, to new fans who were watching the Season sets for the first time, to people who watch the JP version, the general response was, "You're kid...

Urg. I bought the set and immediately went to episode 20 to hear Mind Power Ki in the English dub. Suprise suprise, they pulled ANOTHER damn Mezase Tenkaichi. :\ Silencing the whole scene's background music while allowing dialogue to occur, while the Japanese version features the vocal song and the...

This was the first AMV I ever watched, and the video that that got me into AMV's like a year and half ago. Although I've long since watched this vid to death, it still remains one of my favorite AMVs and a standard at which to compare most other AMVs to. Imagine my disappointment in finding that not...

I've been hearing fans bicker about video compression due to the episode count per disc, audio tracks, etc. I've been doing a little thinking after watching the trailer, and I have another theory: there probably won't be, at least for the first couple of sets, the redub score or Faulconer score. Th...

Well, they are calling these season sets so... I'm figuring they'll break where the seasons did. So box 1 will end shortly after Vegeta's defeated. Box 2 will be right after Goku gets to Namek. Box 3 *might* include Garlic Jr. If not, it'll end with Freeza and Garlic Jr. will probably be at the sta...

So you must know japanese to saythat the interview is fake? I though it was legit. :cry: I don't think one needs to be very knowledgable in Japanese to consider the name "Nirazaki Tihashiberi ", and the interview, a fake. Not to mention that El_Diablo is right, part of this was posted her...

Wow...I am completely surpised at how this thread turned out. I guess the best answer is "It depends on what you prefer - Romanization loyalty or Pun loyalty" So...anyone got anything on that "Warlock" thing? I'm assuming it was just the VIZ translators going out of their way to...

Dr. Briefs wasn't not even in the Trunks Special, so he could never built a new spaceship. He probably died of old age with his wife. He wasn't in the Trunks Special, which took place when Trunks was 13. He was, however, alive in the majin Buu Arc, where Trunks was 8. Therefore, assuming chaos theo...

Anything saga with more than that just got a starter set, except the Freeza Saga, which has nothing. (Box Set Wise) Besides, without thin-paks, a 12 volume Set would be HUGE. If anything they'd Release it in a book, and that wouldn't really match up with the rest of the series, not that the UU foll...

Did anyone figure out if Funi was planning on releasing the Vegeta saga in one box? I would rather buy one big box then two little ones. Sorry, but this isn't going to ever happen. The largest box sets Funi has put out there so far are the Majin Buu and Fusion Saga sets, each containing 7 Volumes. ...

Does anyone else have any thoughts on just how destructible the Dragonballs are? We know that Tao can't damage the ball with his most concentrated Ki attack, yet Yajirobe can put a hole through them, and from that point on in the series characters either threaten to destroy the Dragonballs or worry...

People can't just shout to Kaio-sama. He spends more time seeing how far he can pee then he does watching Earth. Heck, when Goku shows up asking about "New Namek", Kaio has no idea about what's happened on Earth in the past 3 years. No one knew where New Namek was - no one had the telepat...

Didn't some kid and his mom write some dbz novel many years ago? I remember we ridiculed the crap out of it on planetnamek. Holy Shit! An unautorized guide to Dragonball Z! I actually have that book sitting on my shelf. That is the biggest piece of trash that ever was graced with the title of Drago...
