Re: Episode #0311 (30 September 2012)

Super Butouden in two words: fuck yeah. I kinda missed out on the last couple podcast episodes for several reasons, but when I saw "Super Butouden" pop up in my Twitter feed this morning, I scrambled to put it on my MP3 player. I friggin' love these games. I'm surprised that when you went ...

Re: DragonBall Z Abridged

Cooler Abridged is here!

I enjoyed this one. The beginning was a bit slow, but I absolutely loved Cooler by the end. The part with the bird was nicely done as well, I always thought that scene was weird as hell.

Re: Moments When Dragon Ball Shows its Age

Also, the Funi version of Maka sounded even more 80's than the original. I really don't agree on that point. FUNimation's version of Makafushigi Adventure has a very "dry," reverbless sound. In the 80s, basically everything was drenched in reverb. Plus, it has all real instruments unlike ...

Re: Budokai 1 Vegeta What-if's original dialogue?

IIRC, the original was a parody of the "You mean Kuririn?!?!" scene. Yajirobe says he'd get killed like "that Saiyan," to which Vegeta replies "You mean Nappa? YOU MEAN NAPPA?!?!?!" and turns Super Saiyan.

Re: Instances where FUNi removed dialogue?

I recall one in episode 191 while Cell is being blown up by Gohan. You can see his mouth move, but in the dub he doesn't say anything (I don't recall what he said in Japanese.)

Re: DBZ Budokai HD Collection: Official On-Going Thread

I've never really been interested in these HD collections before because I'm a bit iffy on how much better they look, but given that Budokai 2 is the only one in the trilogy I've never played, now I have absolutely no reason to check this out.

Re: Why does FUNi release DBZ on BD/DVD when they'll cancel

FUNimation's headquarters is actually powered by a dark god. To keep it in FUNimation's employ, every so often a sacrifice of several hundred gallons of delicious fanboy tears must be given to said evil deity, in exchange for which it allows them to license new titles.

The closest you could get is to check the Japanes VHS and Laserdisc releases, I suppose.

Re: Sound effects and their origins..

Usually fighting sound effects are done by hitting things like meat or fruit in various ways and then processing the recording, I think.

There's just one part I can't make out. What does Goku say at 4:02, just after "I'm not immortal either. And I'm okay with that."

What's a good place for Europeans to import US merch?

Despite being a Dragon Ball fan for over a decade, I only started collecting stuff fairly recently--mostly because there's absolutely zero merchandise available where I live, and importing is kind of difficult and expensive. Between shipping costs and import tax I regularly get screwed over. That is...

Re: Could the filler have been useful to the Anime?

Filler is definitely a mixed bag. Even in the Saiyan arc filler there are some episodes I like and some I don't. I think Gohan and the robot is really overrated and I've never been a big fan of Goku's adventures on Snake Way. I remember being really pissed off for a good five seconds when I first wa...
