Re: Funimations 30th anniversary collectible home video release

Yeah they really are - aside from the fact the singles are interlaced and have a low bitrate they compare very favourably to the Japanese Dragon Box GT release. The green bricks look pretty lousy by comparison. I mean personally I'd take bluriness over interlace combing ANY day. There's some during...

Re: Why does the Garlic Jr. filler arc exist?

I'm slowly working my way through the series and I'm actually a few episodes into the Garlic Jr. arc. It's odd that they brought Garlic Jr. back of all people but what is even stranger is that they tried to tie it into the Demon clan stuff with Piccolo and a Demon planet and it all feels so weirdly ...

Re: Funimations 30th anniversary collectible home video release

I think the Dragon Ball Blue Bricks are fine (awful colour grading though) while the GT ones are actually REALLY good, managing to strike a nice balance between grain removal and keeping things sharp and detailed. Of course the main difference is that Funimation got the Dragon Box scans for that on...

Re: Funimations 30th anniversary collectible home video release

This set has such terrible visuals, there's probably more visual detail in the Dragon Boxes, even. Probably? There’s no question - even if you ignore the black crush that Funimation love to do there is significantly more detail in the Dragon Boxes than in these sets. Especially the R2s with their m...

Re: Funimations 30th anniversary collectible home video release

I didn’t think these would ever be any good after the initial reveal but I did hope for a subtle improvement.

But nope they’re irredeemable trash.

Re: All-purpose Dragon Ball sale/trade thread.

For Sale Dragon Ball Z Dragon Box 2 Hi everyone - I'm selling my Japanese volume 2 Dragon Box. It was damaged during a break in last year (it was kept in a storage unit and the was dropped out of the sealed tub onto the floor) which led to a tear in the top of the box and some scratches in the foil...

Re: Dragon Ball FighterZ: season 3 predictions?

I'd like to see:

Muten Roshi
Chichi (with a 23rd Tenkaichi Budokai costume)
Piccolo Daimao
Caulifla & Kale (keep fusion for ultimates)

I would like to see Ultra Instinct Goku, but we have too many Gokus already at this stage.

Re: Dragon Box Audio Vs. Broadcast Audio — How is there even an argument?

I’ve been out of the loop on the broadcast audio thing. I don’t think anyone had the entirety of Z when I was last up to date on this stuff. Is there an effort being made to overlay that audio on the DBox footage? (as in, done by fans) That would be awesome. It's been done, it's already out there. ...

I'm looking forward to the omnibus bar complaint. There's been so many red flags (at least they are in my jurisdiction) that at the very least would lead to your practicing certificate being suspended if not being struck off the roll of lawyers.

Re: If Manga UK Were To Release 'Rock the Dragon'

A proper box set, preferably using Madman's PAL DVD masters for the show, and using the uncut Pioneer movies would be perfect IMO. Anything else is a step down from that. Honestly, the RTD set itself was a little iffy; video quality was utterly awful, the TV cut versions of movies 1 and 2 were an a...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread

I actually enjoyed this chapter, I loved the Galactic King comedy stuff.

There were a few Goku drawings during his spar with Meerus that looked like a huge step up from Toyo's usual work too.

You’re right about the statute of limitations but you’re conflating statutory limitation periods for civil actions with criminal charges. A statutory scheme will set out the limitation period for a civil action in tort, contract etc, however criminal actions depending on the severity generally have...
