Dragon Ball with English subs and Japanese title cards?
How could I get a hold of this? I heard it's possible to import them in the form of two big boxes from Australia on a Geekdom101 video but haven't been able to find them anywhere. Any help?

Rip the subs from the blue bricks and video from the Dragon Boxes.
You could import the madman release, or track down all the US release and the individual madman release of the saga of goku.

FUNimation's original two-disc sets of the first TV series contained the Japanese title cards, did they not? Weren't they still doing alternate angles for that stuff back then?
Obviously the first thirteen episodes are unavailable in that format from that run of production, but you're otherwise good there.

Hmm, ok. I will look into that.VegettoEX wrote:FUNimation's original two-disc sets of the first TV series contained the Japanese title cards, did they not? Weren't they still doing alternate angles for that stuff back then?

Instead of making a new topic, as a question to you or anyone else: Where's the best place to find the Dragon Ball Dragon Box and what's the average price for it?

I can confirm that the Saga dvds give you the option of watching the episodes with their Japanese title cards. Though the opening and ending animations are displayed creditless when watching in Japanese.VegettoEX wrote:FUNimation's original two-disc sets of the first TV series contained the Japanese title cards, did they not?

Your best bet is probably to import the Dragon Box DVD singles re-release from Japan(They were literally just single-disc repackages of the Dragon Box discs); unlike the full Dragon Boxes, they're still in-print.Forte224 wrote:Instead of making a new topic, as a question to you or anyone else: Where's the best place to find the Dragon Ball Dragon Box and what's the average price for it?
As for pricing... It'll probably be pretty high. IIRC it's like £8-12 per disc, which is like... $18-ish?
Honestly, the cheapest option for subs with the Japanese title cards might actually be to buy the UK season DVDs. For the original series only, it's the Madman saga DVDs, but packaged up into sets of four discs. I believe discs 1 and 2(Or 3 and 4, I forget which. Whichever two discs formed the Fortuneteller Baba Saga, it was that one) of season 3 have a glitch, in which one episode is skipped, and one episode has dubtitles, but you can pick up the US saga DVD set containing both discs without that problem for like $9. Only downside will be that the saga DVD will have worse encoding, but it'll be NTSC, so no field blending, I guess.

The point of Dragon Ball is to enjoy it. Never lose sight of that.

I haven’t watched them all on this platform, but the episodes I’ve watched on FuniNow have the Japanese title cards, provided you’re watching with Japanese audio.

Zero context, zero setup. Its in NO way meant to be seen as a "beginning point" for ANYTHING other than the next story arc. It flows precisely and fluidly from where things left off in the aftermath of the 23rd Budokai and mostly hits the ground running from there without really stopping to look back. You're plopping someone into the middle of a book starting at chapter 195 out of 519 for absolutely no good goddamn reason, with very minimal opportunity to look back at much needed context and character/story growth.
