Re: Why do so many Z fans refuse to watch the original Dragon Ball?

They're idiots for not preferring something? Yeah that does make you an asshole, no offense. No they're idiots for being willfully ignorant for only wanting to see half of a story. This thread isn't about people who prefer the "Z" portion, this is about the people who refuse to see the fi...

Re: Why do so many Z fans refuse to watch the original Dragon Ball?

Because they're idiots . I hate to sound like an asshole, but that's the truth. Who in their right mind would voluntarily decide to skip out on nearly HALF of story? And on top of that, debatably, the better half of the story? They're idiots for not preferring something? Yeah that does make you an ...

Re: Why do so many Z fans refuse to watch the original Dragon Ball?

Because it's honestly pretty bland and uneventful compared to Z? It also lacks all the kinetic action and fights the latter had. There's just so much talking and uninteresting character development in a franchise that's suppsoed to be about crazy big fights, etc. There's plenty of big fights also a...

Re: Dragon Ball VHS Question

I'm in a similar position where I'm trying to track down if whether a 4th tape of the Legend of Zelda cartoon exists or not. Supposedly it was only available through a mail-in order with Nesquik, along with two other Super Mario Bros Super Show tapes (which those do exist). My advice would be to try...

Re: "Jump Force" Official Discussion Thread

Looks interesting, but until we actually see some game play footage, or at least something more other than what was shown in the teaser, I can't really get that excited about it one way or another.

Re: Is being able to watch original DBZ in a non-cropped format for a reasonable price too much to ask?

My biggest regret in terms of Dragon Ball, was falling out of the franchise right before the Dragon Boxes were announced. By the time I got back into the series it was too late to get them. I did luck out and find Box 7 at a gaming convention for $4 and then later won Box 5 on eBay for $40, but as t...

Some things never change. Remember when the dub use to make Vegeta and other characters say stuff like "Mondo Cool"? Doesn't sound like they've progressed that much in regards to unnecessary script changes.

Viz's failed attempt to look hip by trying to connect to the younger generations by referencing memes aside, I'm more annoyed that this got announced literally just a few days after I spent money buying the Japanese version and it being delivered. Just my fucking luck. Oh well, guess I'll be buying ...

Re: Super Episode 131 (25 March 2018)

What can I say about this episode that hasn't been said already. This was easily one of my favorite episodes of anything DB. Never in a million years would I have thought that Goku and Freeza would team up like that. My absolute favorite part was when they were rushing Jiren and Freeza turns to Son ...

Re: What made you switch over to the Japanese version?

I started watching the "Ocean" dub, but would always watch those 10 second Quick Time/Real Player blurry-ass video clips that populated all over the old fan sites back in the day, so I had a little bit of familiarity with the Japanese version. However I mainly just stuck with the original ...

Animation-wise: The best I've seen from a Super episode and definitely in the top tier of the whole series. Other thoughts: Was surprised to see that 17 was still there, but glad he was. He is definitely the MVP of this tournament, and while I never really cared for him before, he has become one of ...

Really enjoying the art style so far, hope to see more of it as time goes on. Watched the teaser a few times now and love that part at the beginning of Goku just bouncing around. It just looks so damn fluid!

And he was one of a number of voices in the last 20 years. I like Schemmel's performance, but Goku's popularity was not because of him. He's been the main voice for the character for almost two decades at this point. Yes he's one of the major influences on the popularity of the character in this re...

You keep thinking he has this sort of power. He doesn't. You do realize he voices one of the, if not the, biggest character in animated history right? Its not that implausible to think he could use that to influence who comes and who doesn't. He could have easily told them he wouldn't do it and may...

Great that Kelamis is back in.
