Re: DBZ Remastered Dub
People really don't give it enough credit. It sounds almost like Kai in terms of VA work, especially the Ginyu Saga. Now, of course, there are weak links (Linda Young's Frieza and Goku, since the majority of their voice work is from the 1999 OG dub), but it holds up well. What do ya'll think? (This...

Re: Long Live Chris Ayres
Aww damn man . R.I.P Chris Ayres.
I grew up with Linda Young voicing Freeza but Chris Ayres to me was the best English dub voice actor for the character

Re: Shunsuke Kikuchi has passed away
Man Rest In Power Kikuchi. As a kid I was more of a Falconer fan but as I got into my 20s I became a fan of Kikuchi's music and realized that it fit the vibe of the show much better.
My condolences goes out to his family.

Re: Dragon Ball Z 4:3 Steelbooks
i just got my Season 7, and It looks amazing. i ordered the final 2 steelbooks so i have to wait 2 more weeks Agreed. Even though these sets are not perfect they're still the best DBZ Blu Ray release since the Level Sets. I still find it odd that FUNimation released these sets quietly with any prom...

Re: What's your most recent Dragonball purchase?
Got seasons 8 and 9 today and finally completed my collection. Even though this isn't a perfect release I'm glad that I now own all of DBZ in the original 4:3 aspect ratio. This will probably be the final time that I'll buy a DBZ home release. https://i.ibb.co/BBSTM4p/IMG-20210306-190342892.jpg http...

Re: Is anyone still holding out for a new HD remaster from TOEI?
Nope I gave up a long time ago lol. Toei is just like FUNimation, they don't treat this series with the respect that it deserves.

Re: What's your most recent Dragonball purchase?
Got Seasons 6 and 7 last Wednesday. Only two more sets to go. https://i.postimg.cc/W1SGDVZc/20210121-160739.jpg Oh man, these things came out so quickly! They'd usually do a release once every three months. I'm impressed. Guessing for the 2013/14 Blu-Rays Funimation spent the time between releases ...

Re: New Blu Ray sets? Let's compare!
I actually really love the new cases a lot and since I have both the Dragonboxes and the 30th set, I will not be buying this. AGAIN. I can't keep buying Z over and over and over from Funimation. I've paid more than my dues when it comes to supporting the Z portion of the series. Honestly, I feel no...

Re: Funimations 30th anniversary collectible home video release
I think the packaging is better than the puny paper box, even though I'm not a fan of steelbooks. My only gripe is that it was advertised as a limited release. Only a few thousand in the world!!! I guess Funimation thought that the fans who bought it cared about that shitty paper packaging, because...

Re: Dragon Ball Z 4:3 Steelbooks
so Are these sets still good or no? i pre-ordered my copies I've been watching through the first season. While there have been better remasters in the past, these look perfectly acceptable. Some artificial grain was applied to the picture from when footage was first shown, and I think that masks so...

Re: Dragon Ball Z 4:3 Steelbooks
Back in January, MangaUK came to me and said Funi were putting out their 30th sets in seasonal packaging for the mass market. They wanted to know if they should do that too or go with the old 16:9 release. I told them 4:3, obviously. Did they mention if this is going to be a limited release? Or are...

Re: Dragon Ball Z 4:3 Steelbooks
Just got the 3 steel books and they do look a lot grainier then the 2013 Blu Rays. From the clips of the 30th anniversary set that I saw on YouTube it didn't have this much grain in it. The picture quality on these Steel books looks a lot better then the 2013 Blu Rays though. It's a fake grain filt...

Re: Dragon Ball Z 4:3 Steelbooks
Wait, so these are somehow a worse transfer of the 30th discs? How did Funimation fuck this up again? All they had to do was use the same fucking disc image. :wtf: The people at Funimation are the kind who could accidentally kill themselves getting out of bed in the morning. I think they also messe...

Re: Dragon Ball Z 4:3 Steelbooks
they did not. these are just the 30th a masters, but with a lower bitrate. Interesting is there any noticeable difference? These are an option to replace any of my discs if something happens to them so I want make sure. Yes, they look noticeably worse. Even the fake grain is more smeary. I'll never...
