Re: Dragonball Kai (FUNimation English) Dub: General Discuss
Newbie-to-Kai comment, but I'm assuming that's an insert song from the Saiyan Saga? Sounds decent, though in general I don't really have that strong a connection with many insert songs in shows. In general, I've been keeping away from Kai in all forms (the whole idea of the same video, but different...

Re: If Trunks showed up on Namek?
It'd be so anti-climatic and Deus Ex Machina like. ^ My first reaction. Though considering that at that point in the series, no one even knew what a Super Saiyan looked like, I could imagine everyone just thinking Trunks was just some other breed of warrior and Trunks just rolling with the idea for...

Re: What would happen if Goku chose to be God?
I feel like the whole concept of Goku being god would have been an interesting idea to play with, if only for a short while (completely agree that he'd get bored of it fast, though). Honestly, interactions between Goku, and Kami are few and far between, which is a shame since I feel like such a thin...

Checking the price on walmart right now, it looks like it's plummeted to a cool $24.96 for the two. Sounds like a deal to me .

Re: DragonBall Z Kai - Cable TV Version (NickToons)
Haven't caught some dubbed Kai (or any Kai, really) in a while, so I figured I'd DVR some of the episodes during the marathon the other day. Holy crap. In general, I hate the idea of them re-using footage from the old series and rehashing it as this new hotness, so I was never all that big on Kai wh...

Video Project: Chronologically Confused About DB DVDs
Hey, daizex'rs I've actually had this idea floating in my head for some time after seeing AVGN's Chronologically Confused Videos, but it wasn't until now that I've started actually setting some things up. I'm sure you guys are the last to be told just how confusing DB's DVD releases are. So, based o...

Re: Why did Vegeta turn to stone?
I saw the scene in the anime first, so I always thought that him turning to stone was some kind of side-effect of still being under Babidi's control (or lack of it at this point). Vegeta does mention while fighting Goku that he fell under Babidi's magic on purpose to gain a bit of boost in terms of ...

Re: FUNimation VS. FUNimation: Dead Zone.
Always with the awesome threads, Tanooki :D. Completely agree with you on going with the Ultimate Uncut release here. In general, I feel like whoever did the overall style for the Ultimate Uncut releases did an awesome job of keeping the overall American "badass" flair FUNi's connected wit...

Re: Where would the Artificial Human arc have gone?
In general, the Artificial Humans Saga (and even the Cell Saga at the end) was something of a throwback, making a point of how no matter how pure Goku's intentions were in defeating the Red Ribbon Army were, evil is still able to worm its way back from the destruction left. Minor characters from the...

Re: Path of Power style
I always find it absolutely shocking to find that some people aren't fans of "Path to Power." While it takes mainly from GT's better animation style, it's still able to portray the earlier DB stuff in an appealing way... dunno how to word it really, but yeah, I definitely woulda loved some...

Re: Dragon Ball Movie 4-Pack
Really wish they didn't go with the Season Set template. Blech. While I'm not that big into the Season Set template myself, I will give FUNi props for consistent cover art throughout all three series as of late. As smexy as the cover art is, I'll probably end up buying it only when it hits around $...

Re: FUNimation's DragonBox Menus: Secret Messages!
They use their already bought products to make people buy their products? That's basically what their trailers that show up before the menu screen do, right? Makes perfect sense if they were to take it one step further and put 'em in the menus themselves... not that I'm complaining. Funimation's pr...

I know people got over it a couple pages ago, but I still don't get why that picture of SSJ Vegeta on the last disc is even an official image for the series. I always come across it every now and then and it looks like they just snipped off SSJ Vegeta's hair from a different picture (from an obvious...

Re: Kaioshin names in the manga
Leave it to desirecampbell to spice up the topic. Also, just for the sake of comparison, the FUNi dub had Gohan on one occasion refer to him as "Kibito-Kai." In a later episode, though, Vegeta refers to him as "Kibito-shin." Guess the the switching between "Dai Kaioshin"...

Re: DragonBall Z Kai: Vol 2 DVD Set - Dissection / Discussion.
My word, three versions of the opening? Feels like FUNimation's really digging into every nook and cranny to find something they can re-do. I personally would have enjoyed something like interviews (at least with the dub cast; they could even just put in the mini interviews they air as commercials o...

Re: Kokoro No Hane (DBK Outro Theme) Single. Dissection!
Again, Tanooki's outdone himself with his show-and-tell .
I get that that wasn't an actual recording session, but is it normal for more than one voice actor to be able to record with another voice actor? From what I've picked up from American shows, that's a pretty rare thing to be able to do.

Re: Dragon Box Volume Four (Pre-Orders available from RightStuf)
Found it kinda strange that we don't even see Trunks in the trailer itself, but hey, it's a fourth DragonBox, so yay! I'm personally pretty excited for this set onward, since (believe it or not) I haven't seen a majority of the episodes until the Buu Saga stuff starts off.

Re: Dragon Ball Z Kai 2 DVD and Blu Ray out Sept 14
Well, at least we're getting consistent cover art, which can't exactly be said for earlier releases of the other series. While I don't find the new artwork super-awesome, I am somewhat digging the whole "minimalistic" style of design for the US Kai releases, especially for the discs themse...
