I really like Piccolo's angry voice lol. He really sounds imposing well talking back to the androids. Cell is doing pretty good too! :mrgreen:

Yeah, which is yet another reason I hate the orange bricks. Of course, this is nothing compared to the terrible image quality and scratchy Japanese audio, but still, they just had to go with the normal ones.

... Did they really just edit out the little smooch noise when Goku and ChiChi had that one and only off screen kiss?!

Yo my friend told me that they edited out a makeout scene between Android 17 and 18. Is that true? I hope they didn't cause that would have been hot.

There certainly is! It's just a little peck noise, and it happens off screen, but it's there. It's the only time we are ever aware that they even kiss.

EDIT: I'm an idiot! :P

Dragon Ball doesn't involve itself with incestuous relationships. :lol:

Was... this dub only from Z? I can imagine it, if it was.

Well, looks like I was wrong. I could have sworn that noise was in there, but I just watched the Japanese version of the episode and it looks like it's not. My bad. :?
(I made sure to fast forward to that very spot so I wouldn't hear Yamamoto's score and then start to cry uncontrollably.)

I'll check my DVD's later to see if it's in the Japanese version of Z.

A few comments on this week's episodes:

What's up with the doorknob imagery when Goku's talking about surpassing the base SSJ state? I vaguely remember seeing something similar in Bleach when the subject of surpassing your strength came up, but can anyone explain it any further than that? I'm assuming there's some kind of saying about doorknobs and getting stronger that I'm unaware of..?

I also noticed that #17 flicked his earring in a similar way that #19 did back when he was fighting Vegeta. Such a thing didn't show up in the manga, so I was wondering if this is just some kind of weird action akin to something like twiddling one's thumbs and if it suggested anything about that person's personality.

In terms of BGM, I noticed that they've been playing that slide whistle BGM quite a bit these past couple episodes. Not much to say except it's somewhat distracting just because I never really expected such a piece during a fight scene :/.

As for dub lines, Piccolo's "Game Over!" just made me think of another WeeklyTubeShow video. I'm guessing it has to have been an edited version only line since well... it just seems so weird for Piccolo to say it.
10-30 minutes have most likely passed between my clicking to comment and actually posting. Curse my habit of thinking how to word my posts for too long!

Things just got so much more confusing!

It seems after replacing the music on the Nicktoons version of DBZK, they some how let some uncensored lines slip in. I don't know if this was on purpose or just an accident. Probably just an accident...? Because of this though, every now and then I'll be updating some episodes on the Nicktoons Edits Guide with images of these retroactive unsensorings like this:

Now. On the flip side to that, they're also retroactively censoring lines! What? I'm figuring since they don't have an unedited line to put in it's place they're... well, they're doing this...

Kinda reminds of when Poochie (from The Simpsons) had to go off to space because his planet needed him. Pretty hilarious stuff right there.

In any event. I would appreciate if you happen to come across one of these retroactive censoring\uncensorings to maybe post them here so I could just update the Nicktoons Edits Guide (and perhaps to have a few laughs). Man what a mess this turned out to be!

What happened in that youtube clip? It goes from one voice to another and then cuts off.... :|

I noticed the same thing for some Saiyan saga dialogue too, Tanooki.
Yamcha: Do you remember the spell to release him - do you know all the words?
Bulma: Of course! I'm not gonna pull a Frieza and screw it up!
Master Roshi: Bulma, I think Frieza failed because he wore too many clothes!

I like how on Episode 74's description on the Nicktoons site it says "Room of Spirit and Time", I guess they didn't double check that.
But, as the episodes go on, I've been really enjoying Dameon Clarke back as Cell. He was one of my favorite casting choices from the original dub and loved his performance then.
So, this is only better than ever. It's good to see that an amazing Freeza and the Cell from the previous dub back in this for Kai!

Wow, they edited out Cell's blast to Piccolo. They even showed that on Cartoon Network.

Anyone got a link to the new episode on Nicktoons website? I don't know the name of the title so I can't type it myself. :P
