English Dragon Box Release
http://twitpic.com/arlvh
Holy shit...
APPENDED NOTES BY ADMINISTRATOR:
This thread is about FUNimation's announcement to release "Dragon Box" sets for the DBZ series in North America. This was announced at their industry panel at Otakon 2009, reiterated with slightly more information in a press release, and covered on the home page of Daizenshuu EX on June 18th & 19th in detail with images and minor commentary.
For additional exposition, please visit the "Newbie Guide" and DBZ TV page of the "DVD Guide" here on Daizenshuu EX, and the (Japanese) "DVD Guide" over on Kanzentai.

This is worth ending my self-imposed ban from the boards for (as well as my 6000th post!).
HURRAH! Looks like I'll be ditching my Season Sets (the Z ones, at least) in the end after all. Wonder what the release date is...

I never thought I'd see the day... I don't even know what to think...
I guess I'm glad I only bought the first four Orange Bricks, though... Haha
In before "WHY ISN'T THE BOXSET YELLOW!!1"
I'm really interested in these hardcover books, though. And I love that it starts up in the original Japanese... This is a sheer for-the-fans release if I've ever seen one.

If it doesn't have the Funi dub, I'm not buying.
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!

As long as this is what they say it is not something wrapped in bullshit. This really is a release for the fans that they have ignored for so long. Don't get me wrong, they tried what they thought would be good, but always the original Japanese version fans were on the side.
Not anyone.

Well I'll be God damned to hell.
Kanzenshuu: Is that place still around?
Sometimes, I tweet things
We might, if they screamed all the time, for no good reason.

I don't see why they wouldn't still include it. Not having it as the default language anymore seems like a smart move, though.jjgp1112 wrote:If it doesn't have the Funi dub, I'm not buying.
Oh I'm exactly the same way. I already loved them for saving One Piece, but provided there's no yet-unseen "catch" with these Dragon Boxes, they'll have essentially righted their wrongs with DBZ, and will own my soul.Haseowolf wrote:It's like...FUNi was a bad bad, evil little Hitler...and now they are...like...what's beyond a Rou Dai Kaioshin?

Okay, maybe not to that extent but STILL.

I mean, I'll hold my breath until we get more info, but I NEED the Funi Dub. If it does, I'll probably sell my Seasons 1 & 2 sets.
Wait, was it Funi who announced it, or Toei? I'm confused. If it is from Funi, then it definitely has the dub. I'm sold, if that's the case.

That made me realize something. Even if you can't afford the entire series of these new releases, they'll at least make a damn great replacement for Season Sets 1 and 2 and their awful video quality.jjgp1112 wrote:I'll probably sell my Seasons 1 & 2 sets.
It's FUNimation. They announced it just today from their panel at Otakon. So yeah, I'd say including the dub is a given.Wait, was it Funi who announced it, or Toei? I'm confused. If it is from Funi, then it definitely has the dub. I'm sold, if that's the case.

*gets ready to put my DBZ season 1 and 2 sets on EBay*
I mean, goddamn. Toei has just been loving Funi since One Piece.

Yeah, man. I'm just fine with the rest of my Season sets, but changing the color settings for Seasons 1 & 2 on your TV can only go so far.SSj Kaboom wrote:That made me realize something.

Or, rather, we now have something to sell to get the cash for the Dragon Boxes. Thus is my plan...snaku wrote:It's finally sunk in. Orange brick buyers got fleeced.

So all of those people hoping for a 4:3 announcement in the Big Announcement thread had reason to believe it after all
