Catchup time, loving these episodes, this is where the fun really begins in GT: Episode 16 - Machine Planet M2… Gill the Traitor?! In this episode we get some more good character moments between Pan and Giru, as she gradually continues to develop a liking for the little robot, in addition to some mo...

Has Funimation put out anything in 4K? And I'm not just talking what ifs for DB, but sister series? They released Akira, as well as Transformers the Movie and Ghost in the Shell in the UK. I imagine they will continue testing the waters with classic movies like that, and maybe Super Hero on 4K, but...

If Funi were planning 4K DB releases, they'd probably start with Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero ; whether they'd then go back to the classic movies or upscale the other three modern ones first, I'm not sure. The double features are still the most recent American BDs of the classic movies, so repacka...

I think having a clear Latin American dub (like they started with Ultimate Uncut) would be great. But, I don't expect it. And I definitely don't expect alternative English dubs on those either. I do wish they at least took a crack at Dragon Ball and GT on Blu-ray. Not that it would make any differe...

I'm quite certain that at one point Funimation will use UHD Blu-Ray as an excuse to milk Dragon Ball Z again. There wouldn't be any point in releasing another 2K Blu-Ray as the "291 episodes in full frame" gimmick has already been utilized, so a new format (which is starting to take on and...

Well I fell behind a bit, but finally catching up: Episode 11 – Lood’s Curse?! Pan Turned into a Doll With more exploration for the cult of Lood and the God of Destruction’s self-named home world this episode is a promising addition to Goku, Trunks and Pans’ journey and to GT as the series continues...

Been thinking lately about what the story could have been surrounding this dubs production and distribution, if it did indeed exist to begin with. Since we've had a thread asking what the Japanese think about the west's version of Dragon Ball I've considered what if the Frontier dub was only ever ci...

At any rate, Dragon Ball doesn't need an anime constantly airing to stay relevant. It's influence on the industry and probably even the media in general is too strong. Outside of the shonen demographic what influence has Dragon Ball really had? Especially on media in general? It’s biggest influence...

I am pro Club Dorothee and I will die and rot on this hill. Yeah, honestly while the Club Dorothée airings were infamous for the numerous edits the block arguably brought Dragon Ball and anime to the mainstream in France. A 55% and 60-86% audience share of the 4-14 year old and entire demographic r...

It’s like the anti-English dub. Instead of trying to make the show a “bad ass show for whiny preteens and edge lord teens” they made it come off like a Nick jr preschool show. The Italian opening is a banger however https://youtu.be/ozKql_qd8E4 I don’t think teens were much of a priority for FUNima...

Never heard any cases of it myself, there was one case of a parent who initiated a Facebook campaign to have his son named after Goku and was successful, but as of yet I've heard nothing about that child being forced to like the series, and I doubt he will be. I'd never force my own kids if I had an...

It's often assumed to have been AB Groupe, based on the following comment from the actor who played Goku himself: Yo, I do play some of the games I'm in. As for Z, none of us knew the series at all when we did it. I bought a ton of eps and watched them after, but it was too late. We could have been ...

Just started this batch of episodes now. Have to say this is my favourite Tokunaga track but its placement at the beginning of this episode as Pan and Giru were being blasted off didn't work for me. Looking forward to getting to episode 63 as its placement then for the universal Genki Dama was perfe...

That's my thinking too.

It seems we're losing so far, though!

To clarify, "Rematch" was a typo, but it's funny now you put it like that

I'm going to vote for between episodes 15 and 16, because I think this rematch should end with where the original run finished.

Episode 6 - It’s Going to Hurt?! Goku the Dentist Another fun side adventure that does a decent job of further establishing the chemistry between Goku, Pan and Trunks with the former two being very carefree, and the latter taking a more serious approach, as well as offering a new obstacle for obtai...

PS.Sorry for bringing SW every so often, can't helpt it. My relatives call it "the other dragon ball" because of how I get with it as well XD It's okay, those two franchises are really easy to compare with each other. I often think of Dragon Ball as being "Japanese Star Wars" be...

their reactions are mainly about how Goku sounds weird with male voice actors. It's funny some Japanese people think that considering the fact a lot of western fans feel the exact opposite when it comes to Nozawa's Goku. it would be kinda strange if absolutely nobody in Japan liked the Faulconer sc...

I brought my wife (then girlfriend) to see Super Broly when it was in theatres. Probably not the best introduction to Dragon Ball because its such a fan service fest, she's also very much a girly girl (kinda ironic but I always more attracted to them than nerdy girls) so there wasn't much to like. S...

Kei is also a Japanese fan and as far as I can tell he doesnt like the Funimation dub. If memory serves Kei said he doesn't like the constant music playing in the dub or Funimation's history of making the show too cheesy and "badass" for teens and thinks it ruined Toriyama's more universa...
