Well that's my motto. You can spend your time overanalyzing something in DBZ that really, you will never answer, all your "analyzing" and "theories" will be gone to waste because it will all just be an opinion in the end Yet you waste plenty of time in threads questioning why pe...

I'm just giving an UNBIASED opinion. How are you?, have you even seen the dragonboxes in motion?, or is all of your objective reasoning based on some ugly jpegs?, you're giving your own HONEST opinion that is very much biased towards the set you own, and the set you enjoy. I bet if TOEI would relea...

this "YOU'RE ALL EVIL ANTI-FUNIMATION JERKS" thing is getting tiresome. People could say the same thing about you going out of your way to praise FUNi's sets. And I'll do it, because it honestly sounds like you're just trying to find any reason to validate the season sets, and refuse to h...

Re: Australian Season 2 remastered boxset questions

The sounds like a problem with YOUR set. I've already watched my set upto Vegeta getting the four star ball, so I might not be 100% accurate since I left that episode a while back. You're probably right, my current dvd player is known to be craptacular (refuses to play the Funi DB sets intermittent...

Australian Season 2 remastered boxset questions

Hey guys, Just today I received Funi's Wide screen season 2 set (as an early birthday present) and after opening the set and popping it in, I have a few questions (having the Australian set might help) For starters, where is the booklet?, not that they were great, but it seems that they have either ...

What are you talking about? I have an HDTV and am perfectly fine with watching other anime in 4:3. Just because there are bars doesn't mean that it's bad. People who have 4:3 TVs still buy widescreen movies so they can have more footage. I'll never understand people's problem with the black bars, I...

Nice. I really don't like the fact that every CD looks the same with a zoomed in picture of eyes and just says, "Disk 1," "Disk 2," "Disk 3," and so on and so forth. That sucks. They look really cheap. The good news about the sets is that they're not completely useless...

Well you can go on a crusade to find out "the truth behind Dragon Ball Z" and along the way your "logic" is truly nothing more than speculation. Yes, we should all apologize for discussing the show we love. Speaking of crusades I gather yours has something to do with stating the...

I just Youtubed some of those tracks, and I was surprised to find how much more I liked them when they were just standalone tracks.

Some of his music is quite good, but it still doesn't fit the show properly for me.

Has there been any confirmation for the music in the US and European releases yet? I remember the interview with Donny Clay or whoever claimed that they had the instrumentals.. If we don't get the Japanese music, it's pretty pathetic, I mean half of the comments on Donny Clay's blog say something ab...

Do you recall them having their limbs torn off? LOL For some reason I find the idea of seeing Saichoro and Muri's limbs getting ripped off to be rather entertaining, but then again I cheered when Saichoro died, he reminded me too much of Jabba the hutt. Anyway, my thoughts were basically that Daima...

My personal thoughts on the "Super God water" (Is that the dub name?, I thought the Japanese name was something like "Super sacred water") are that it unlocked Goku's maximum fighting potential at that point in time, meaning that because he still wasn't an adult, it took his stre...

This may have been mentioned already I think the best thing they could do, is to make a theatrical movie retelling one of the story arcs from DB or DBZ with better animation, like what was done with One Piece(Is that what they did? I'm not fully into One Piece yet :p) I agree, even though I think m...

The FUNi sets look good when they're still shots - but what happens in motion? Let me go in order, for my set (default settings on my TV) a. Black skin is PURE black, so black it's not even funny (I hope no one takes that as an offense). Has to do with brightness I assume b. Everything is very dark...

I have to agree here, call me nuts but I like the color scheme on Funimation's sets a little more then the Dragonbox. I'm not sure why it just seems more natural looking to me. I'm sort of halfway, I think the Dragonbox colours are a little too subdued for my taste, but I find FUNi's colours to be ...
