Re: Do you still care about the end of Z?

You make it sound like Kai was meant to usurp Z. It's just a recut of the show. In a bubble, I would agree with you - but Dragon Ball Super literally premiered the week after Kai's "Final Chapters" finished airing in Japan, as if it were a continuation of the show for fresh-faced viewers....

Re: Do you still care about the end of Z?

I think the real question is... why did they keep EoZ in Kai if they were just going to retcon it later ? In fact, they'd arguably retconned it as soon as Pan was born in RoF, as she's four years old by the time EoZ happens... and according to Bulma, she hadn't seen Son in "five years" - t...

Re: Episode #0455 (07 October 2018)

The YouTube video is down! I was saving it for this morning, when I sat down at work with some coffee and a load of paperwork to burn through. I am so deflated. D: I can listen to it, sure, but this still rubs me the wrong way if this was removed by a third party. I hope that's not the case. The tab...

Re: Dragon Ball Movies HD Remaster - Amazon Video/Netflix Japan - Discussion Thread

So actually, this release does exceptionally well in that regard. Couldn't agree more. Personally, I'm hoping Toei remaster all three original series in this kind of way. If they do that, I think the only time I will watch Kai is for the Ocean dub. Oh, for sure - if they stuck to the transfer metho...

Re: Dragon Ball Movies HD Remaster - Amazon Video/Netflix Japan - Discussion Thread

I'm happy with Kai but I'd love for the original DB to get that kind of remaster. I really hope they don't stop at the movies as this could end up being the best thing to happen to the franchise if they go all out. I would have been happy with Kai if it had covered OG DB and Boo. As it is, it's mos...

*high fives* Hell yeah. Can you imagine, living in a world with DAN DAN at the end of Super... and FUNi's eventual dub replaces it with their 10+ year old English cover, featuring Vic Mignogna? *shudders*

Mezase Tenka’ichi FLOW's Cha-La Head Cha-La during Goku's finishing move would be cheesy as all Hell... but you would find me grinning from ear to ear while it played. Honestly, I don't have a real answer for this. Outside of the current opening ( Limit Break x Survivor ), I wouldn't expect them to...

Re: Filler Material

Great topic! One that immediately comes to mind is Gohan's first real transformation into Super Saiyan, while Cell was attaining his Perfection. I really enjoyed Goku basically deciding that he needs to push Gohan like this. Cell is such a monster and only getting stronger by this point, so death is...

I'm surprised this game still receives updates. I wonder if this means Xenoverse 3 isn't going to be for a long while? Why? Did you think FighterZ would surpass this game? lol lol Has nothing to do with FighterZ, but okay. It surpassed Xenoverse 2 already, since day one. Unless "surpass" ...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Official Announcement & Discussion Thread

For the sake of discussion, now would be a great time to mention: Piccolo never had his rematch with Goku. While Vegeta did eventually get his rematch, the battle itself was a sideshow to the bigger picture - not to mention a huge downscale in girth and outcome. Their first fight felt like an outrig...

Just watched the teasers. So let me get this straight - every Saiyan in FighterZ begins their fight with a transformation of some kind (including Adult Gohan, if you're on the side of believing his "unlocked potential" is a transformation)... until now. Bardock's intro is a proper referenc...

...August 31, 1999 was the release date for dubbed episodes 67-72, which would be Volumes 22 & 23 (Frieza tapes 3 & 4). So I guess I'm still wondering when Volumes 20 & 21 (Frieza tapes 1 & 2) were released. The earliest Amazon review for Volume 20 was August 4th, 1999 so based on t...
