Actually kinda cause the Ultimate Uncut discs I think also had a Spanish option.

They did. And it's quite mind boggling, really.

FUNi throws in the Spanish-Mexican dub for the Coola movie out of nowhere, yet hasn't done this at all for the others. Then they include that dub with the Ultimate Uncut Editions and Ultimately Cut them out of production Editions (couldn't help myself).

It's rather inconsistant and annoying. If they're gonna give us the damn Spanish dub, continue doing so. Don't just throw it as us randomly and then take it away. :\ Hell, I like the UUE just for the fact that it gave me the chance to own the Spanish dub on DVD considering Telemundo stopped airing the series long ago (they never even got past Gohan turning Super Saiyan 2 here, either :<).

What is more annoying is that as of now, Mexico seems to be more focused on releasing Saint Seiya than Dragon Ball Z. So it might be a while before they start putting out DVD sets of DBZ.

In the meantime, I'll start buying the Dragon Box singles, my videos are starting to wear out.

Then, Dragon Ball Z remastered DVDs.
- Season 2 available 5/22/07 (35 episodes).
- Points out that it's digitally remastered in high definition, and has a Japanese music track included with English dialogue.
- Widescreen justification: "A ways to rejuvinate the brand with a young audience and introduce them to the greatest action adventure anime ever! There's a nine-year-old born every day."

Yeah...great way to show your faith in the series (and the fanbase) there, FUNimation.

On a more positive note, I seriously hope they find a way to nab One Piece. Please god please...!

"There's a nine-year-old born every day"??

That's both a nonsensical statement and highly insulting to DBZ's existing fanbase of non-9-year-olds to whom they still have yet to release a complete and uncut version of the series.

FUNimation probably knows what its doing with this release.
I'm just amazed that they control nearly 1/4 of the entire market...

Sadly, that couldn't be any farther from the truth.

I'm not all that suprised, really. Considering the number of titles they have (FMA being a very big one) it is quite understandable...now Sony being in the top ten list and even outdoing Disney (who own the Ghibli label) is much more bizarre. Can anyone say FFVII: Advent Children?

Oh, Jesus. This is just ridiculous. I mean, seriously, FUNi just hit a new low.

Dear God! Let's rape your favorite series, rerelease it in a decent format, take that away, promise you the moon and give you a block of cheese instead... Then insult our intelligence and calling the entire fanbase infantile...

Seriously... Christ...

I... Can't take this... Any longer! And now Funimation... You are going to pay! *turns into super saiyan and destroys everything Funimation*

Not everything FUNimation... everything "Dragonball Z" FUNimation.

But if your still intent on wiping all o' the bastards out, save me a set of Fullmetal Alchemist (w/ the tins + S.E. Movie), and Tenchi Muyo OVA 3 (w/ tin).

You can check the rubble, but I think I sent them straight to HFIL.

There's a nine-year-old born every day?

Who would buy this SUUPA-DUUPA UNCUT GODLY BOXSET for a nine-year-old?

Now, if FUNi made these..."improvements", and then sold these sets in an EDITED form for those youngsters, and gave us uncut 4:3 sets, THEN it would make more sense. But they're no longer marketing this show toward little kids, and they haven't produced edited discs of ANYTHING in a long time.

This set SHOULD'VE been for us HARDCORE fans (or at the very least, more serious, older fans), who are looking for a COMPLETE, *complete* collection of the series. But they keep turning us off at every turn.

They are calling us nine-year olds? That it! *Shoots a Kamehameha at them* They are assholes, trying to justifice their shit.

To be honest, I think most their ratings came from 9-year-olds.

In all honesty, man... a response like that kinda justifies their description.

Didn't Dragonball in Japan have minimum required age of 13?

Nope. I assume that age "requirement" are in the same level as some kiddie shows such as Doraemon. It's a show for kids. Hell, I remember everybody was watching DBZ in the first grade in Taiwan, and I assure you, they weren't scared of the "gore"!

And even without censorships, parents didn't complain.
