Re: AB Video to release original Dragon Ball on Blu-Ray

Bro, judge AB Groupe by their own standards with past releases, not FUNi's is all I'm saying. If that's all you were doing, I can see your point. I'll put it this way. Discotek. They've been licensing various Toei shows. However, they don't announce things until they're very close to release. They ...

Re: AB Video to release original Dragon Ball on Blu-Ray

I don't think it does any company, entity, or anything any good whatsoever to blatantly ignore or write off ANY frame of comparison whatsoever just because the idea of the former looking inferior by comparison is uncomfortable. Granted, the comparison has to be fair, and mine was. I even said that ...

Re: DragonBall Z Abridged

I think my favorite thing about Kai 2.9 is what they admitted: That this was them putting in what they believed as funny. Almost everything was on the table. It reminded me back of the peak abridging scene. and the best part was with this completely unfettered episode, they had the technical know-h...

Re: AB Video to release original Dragon Ball on Blu-Ray

AB also has a history of communicating nothing. Fine, but 14 months? What are they doing over there? Even with Level 1.1, Level 1.2 came out the following month. And they even had dates for 2.1 and 2.2 before they ultimately got the axe. Granted, I'm not even asserting that AB should be that effici...

Re: AB Video to release original Dragon Ball on Blu-Ray

They used the broadcast audio without permission? Can you back that up? It's true. I didn't draw attention to it in the video on purpose, but they straight up just grabbed a group's version off of a piracy website that was pre-synced and had all the issues patched out. It's completely 1:1. Ballsy m...

Re: AB Video to release original Dragon Ball on Blu-Ray

as much i hope that you are right about them asking for "raw scan" for box2 and give a better care to this last part, as much i don't trust at all cause i know how "poor" they are nowadays, (they've lost most licence that they used to have cause they couldn't renew them), that t...

Re: AB Video to release original Dragon Ball on Blu-Ray

So, I've rewatched AnimeAjay's video on the first set & have come up with a shortlist of reasons why the second has taken so long. Which, if you guys haven't watched or rewatched this video recently, you should. Also it could be all of these points at once, or a small number of them holding up t...

Re: AB Video to release original Dragon Ball on Blu-Ray

Off topic but where is this new cut without fillers available? I tried to Google it and best I found were fan cuts. It's not new. They put it together after the original series ended back in like 2008 or something. I'm trying to find where I read about it, but it's called Naruto Hen or some shit li...

Re: AB Video to release original Dragon Ball on Blu-Ray

I'm fine with the Viz Media Blu-Rays for Naruto, Bleach, & other anime because they're decent. Not great because they're clearly usually their DVD masters upscaled to 1080p, then thrown on a disc, but the rereleases are also just better than the DVDs because they have more episodes per set &...

Wow. Looks like they vastly overhauled & improved the combat system. I like BT3 as much as the next guy, but 1 of the things I didn't like even when I was a kid was how shallow the combat was.

Re: DragonBall Z Abridged

Also, I'm rewatching the first part of Totally Not Mark's retrospective on the Buu Saga. When did Goten ever pronounce it "Keme-kame-ha" instead of "Kame-hame-ha"? Was that in the English dub? I know Lani's mentioned that Goten did that, but when? I don't remember it. He explici...

Re: AB Video to release original Dragon Ball on Blu-Ray

It's why Toei hasn't remastered more of their older shows they had shot on film faster. They don't have the money needed & it'd take a while. Dragon Ball from DB to GT is 508 episodes & 3 TV specials. Discounting the openings & endings, as there are only 5 openings & 4 endings acros...

Re: DragonBall Z Abridged

Goku didn’t “learn a lesson” in my eyes. He just said “yeah all of these guys were coming after me, so if I stay dead then they’ll stop.” That’s it. And yeah, Goku said he maybe could have beaten Fat Buu, but we really don’t know for 100% sure because he’s making an assumption. Was Buu going all ou...

It really isn't. Remastering old film takes a lot of time, effort and money. It's why Toei hasn't remastered more of their older shows they had shot on film faster. They don't have the money needed & it'd take a while. Dragon Ball from DB to GT is 508 episodes & 3 TV specials. Discounting t...

Re: AB Video to release original Dragon Ball on Blu-Ray

Like, let's be completely real here, guys. Why would Toei give a single solitary shit that AB Groupe or any other company that licensed the older Dragon Ball shows use the broadcast audio for their home releases? And, why is anyone assuming without confirmation 1 way or another that the hold-up is ...

Re: AB Video to release original Dragon Ball on Blu-Ray

This is good. It shows that they're on track to releasing it. However, I doubt that's what that meant at the time. Packaging design is usually done separately from what the people remastering the episodes & programming the discs are doing & I assume is usually done quicker due to packaging ...

Re: DragonBall Z Abridged

1. Calm down 2. Because again, you’re missing some much needed context that clarifies Goku’s decision. 1. He doesn’t say he could beat Buu, he specifically says that he’s not sure he can even when pressed by Piccolo. 2. He’s leaving Goten and Trunks both because he literally does not have time, but...
