Re: Choices, choices, choices..

OK. So since the Dragon Box sets are coming out here, I have a choice to make. GET: These? http://www.daizex.com/guides/dvd_guide/images/small-dbz_tv_remaster_box1.jpg Or these? http://www.daizex.com/guides/dvd_guide/images/small-dragon_box_dbz_funi_1.jpg Now, I really don't care about the aspect r...

I think any dub in English of any anime is sub par only because it's a translation of the original language. Next time you rent a movie go and watch the Spanish language track and have the Spanish subs on too. Most of the time the words used in the audio will be attempting closeness to the character...

This almost makes Dragonball worth watching again. I might buy this if and when it hits store shelves where I live. I don't see that happening though since Dragonball had a good run in Mexico. I might on the other hand go and get it from one of my cousins who lives in Arizona. That would be a nice t...

Re: Is this the worst DBZ opening?

This is the opening song that's used for many versions. I think around 3 or 4. I'm not saying Rock the Dragon is good, I don't like that song either but this is terrible. I appreciate the uniqueness of the song, it's interesting that they took a different approach and made a really happy cheerful s...

Re: Looking back at DBZUncensored and DBZOA, what do you thi

It's been a few years now. I went and looked at DBZUncensored, DBZOA and DBZUncensored 2 recently and I can't help but think of how overboard these sites were. They were honestly embarrassing. a lot of the stuff written on those sites, especially DBZOA and DBZUncensored 2 was so hateful and so extr...

Re: Is Goku a Psychic?

The main difference between magic (and similar) and things like psychic powers is that psychic powers are scientifically based while magic is supernaturally or mystically based. I always question this. Psychic powers aren't very scientific. Just saying 'it's because of something in the brain' doesn...

I used to contribute here a great deal. I then found other websites and better things other than Dragonball. I still like talking about it and doing a look around here every now and then. It's really just a nostalgia thing and not like I just lurk here. I wish I had a reason to stay around more and ...

I don't know how it would go over if they made a new thing to go with the Dragonball series. After one live action movie and all the stuff with that, we can only take so much in terms of retail garbage. Have you seen the videogame for the movie? It's like Budokai Tenkaichi had a lovechild with the m...

Reading through this thread has reminded me just how out of the loop I am. In one place we have a re-release of DB and somthing new (Dragonball Kai? what's that?) and a movie (which is no surprise to me as I knew about this for a while). I am hoping that this won't be a dissapointment. Maybe if I ca...

Doesn't bother me one bit that it's a kids show. I mean, it does get a bit AWKWARD at times, yet it's all good. No need to deny somthing that is now a fact well known by most and if not all. This movie that is coming out only makes my point ever stronger that it is indeed written and produced for a ...

Is there a DragonBall -related discussion to be had here? If not, I'll be closing the thread. Thanks! It vaguely reminds me of Toriyama, so there is a good chance he did it. That would disprove rumors about his death (ha ha ha ha or more accurately for me ja ja ja ja) and stuff. Maybe it also says ...

While I'm here, Goku first used the Taiyo-Ken in the 23rd Budokai against the four Tenshinhans, not against Vegeta. ;) Nice catch! I totally forgot about it! Interesting that I own the whole story arc that this is a part of. The thing is that while it's the first time we see him use it, it's signif...

Very interesting new material. The thing I noticed was the look of everything and how nice it all kind of blended in. The pics brought back some nostalgia from old times and that more than anything helped to sell the little tidbit to me. Overall good work.

Somthing tells me that this movie is the setup for the Live Action Akira and what better way to get this past the minds of the anime fandom? Hide it underneath a worse movie!

The character Bardock combined with Mexican made up the name "Bardock the Mexican" and that's the story behind the name. Not much, but it's not just a name for me. It's an identity and a interesting take on the character. It's a shame that much of what was Bardock the Mexican is not seen a...

This sounds pretty awesome from the get go. I can't wait to see how this is going to pan out with the final result and all. Or how Funimation is going to respond when it goes up on YouTube. Ojala que seria tan bueno por la fanaticos del doblado original y japonesa. I hope it works out for everyone.
