I see what you did there.

Anyway, I doubt that'll be necessary. "Protection" or not, things are ALWAYS snaggable by people with the right skills. There'll be fansubs available by December.

I have no idea what you're talking about

I asked this earlier, but I don't think anyone answered. If this special isn't released in Japan on DVD because of the streaming, will that affect any chances of an American DVD release?

Well, if Toei for some reason didn't want the movie to be released on DVD, sure. But again, what does streaming in online have to do with a DVD release?

Under some circumstances, yes. Japan let FUNi release all three anime and the movies loooooong before they did, so it doesn't seem like other countries releasing them when they won't/won't yet release them is a factor for Toei.

Now since digital copies and transfers via the web are so common these days regarding copyrighted footage I wouldn't be too surprised if Toei does let FUNi release the special on DVD but doesn't let them release it with the Japanese audio track.

I'd rather it be cel animated just for the fact that's how Dragonball was originally animated. I'm just worried if it's digitally animated, it'll look kinda weird for DB. Either way, i'm ready for the 24th!

I too have wished it had been cel animated from the bginning (and for similar reasons), but it wasn't. It's not totally bad, I really liked the look of the Budokai intros and there are lots of other pros to digital animation.

Any fear I shared with DragonbaI|Z just vanished.

The majority of the complaints people have with digital animation are completely baseless, because they have nothing to do with the process itself and everything to do with the time and effort the animation studio puts in.

It's similar to records vs. cd's it's fine if you prefer the way a record sounds, and the way it's packaged to that of a cd, thats fine, but that doesn't stop it from being an inferior process to record music.

FUNi needs to cash in on this.

...in widescreen.

It might already be... it is being shown in theaters right?

I think so... Besides, their more recent anime (at least One Piece) are made in widescreen now, so I assume that this special is in widescreen too.

Watch us get it in 4:3. Pan & Scan.

Or even worse, a cropping 16:9 format on top of 4:3 pan-and-scanned masters Toei gives them. >>

I think you're forgetting that's the way it was MEANT to be seen.

I dont' know if this is common knowledge, but it seems TOEi has romanized the name as Tarble. http://www.jumpland.com/animetour/db/db_en_chara15.html

Which means that FUNimation will "translate" (read: mutilate) it into something dumb a la Tullece. I dunno-- somehow I just don't see them sticking to the pun on this one.

Hebert tells me via AIM that he hasn't dubbed the special so assume it'll be a raw or subbed.

Li'l Lemmy · Post by **Li'l Lemmy** » Mon Nov 10, 2008 3:29 am

I would have been more than just mildly shocked if it turned out FUNimation had done any dubbing with this special so soon after its initial release in Japan.
