Oh I have that issue Dues. I could send it to you. Actually he looks quite a bit like Darbura. It's frightening. :shock: In a similar vein, does anyone here who have the Japanese version of this? I'd really like to know if what he's reading is actually "Faust" or not. Don't ask me why... ...

Not to my knowledge. That's not to say it's out of the realm of possibility, but I don't really see it happening, myself.

Movie 12...lol I can't wait to see how FUNimation dubs that. I'd say their's a snow balls chance in HFIL that their going to use Hitlers real name in that movie. Actually, that character is never referred to as "Hitler." Daizenshuu 6 lists him as "Dokusaisha," which means "...

I totally agree with that!! Info was something they never found in short supply, especially from the daizenshuu's.

Is Funi's DBGT opening sequence completely changed (like DBZ was)? Yep. And the commercial eyecatches, too. :? That part is kind of annoying, too, because the English return eyecatch is a split-second longer than the Japanese one, so at the very end, you can always hear a snippet of the English sou...

You've got me curiouse, what exactly does it say? From what I understand Toriyama didn't have a high opinion of it, and even joked around about bringing back DBZ because it was so awful. Just google "Shenron Times". When you see the two words side by side, click that site. There are actua...

It's not that it was colorized for the daizenshuu... it's just that it was de-colorized for the tankoubon release.

It's back in color for the kanzenban version, though. :D

Re: GT incidental tunes available anywhere?

Are the tunes used during the GT episodes available anywhere? Were they ever released on CD? A lot of them are just instrumental variations of Dan Dan Kokoro but I think they're all pretty well done, particularly the prologue, the one done to a marching beat, and the one played when Goku transforms...

Van Hellsing (notice the "VAN") is about the demon-slayer (Vampire Hunter mainly), Van Hellsing , from all the Dracula related books. The Hellsing manga was just HEAVILY influenced by these books as well. Note that Alucard is a psycho-assed Vampire in the manga. Van Hellsing is supposed t...
