Earlier this year we updated with a great batch of new Dragon Ball song lyric translations. Included at the time were lyrics to the short versions the “Galaxy Mission” and “Evil Dragon Mission” theme songs from the Dragon Ball Heroes arcade game updates. This month’s “Limited Edition” release of the “Kuu-Zen-Zetsu-Go” CD single came packed …
While the staff here at Kanzenshuu unfortunately could not personally make it out to California for the event, we have a great group of friends that were able to help coordinate a whole bunch of excellent coverage from the North American debut for the film Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods. Before the evening’s festivities …
Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods, the first new film for the franchise in seventeen years, debuted in Japanese theaters 30 March 2013 with a home DVD and Blu-ray release 13 September 2013. There was a good deal of material left on the cutting room floor back in the planning stages, but some of the material seemed to …
The date was 20 November 1984, and Akira Toriyama’s new Weekly Shōnen Jump serialization, Dragon Ball, has just hit magazine racks across Japan for the first time. There was no internet, at least nothing like the modern internet as we know it today, and there was very little thought of documenting these domestic releases at …
The April and May 2014 issues of Saikyō Jump each contained one Q&A session between Dragon Ball SD‘s Naho Ooishi and original manga author Akira Toriyama. The short “Tell Us, Toriyama-sensei!” series seemed to come to a close after those two issues, but the July 2014 issue — released this week in Japan — picks …
One of our favorite sections here at Kanzenshuu is the “Rumor Guide“. Carried over from Daizenshuu EX, it has continuously been revised and expanded with new information as well as entirely new entries such as “Akira Toriyama Hates Vegeta“. An entry we always loved was the “All DBZ Video Games Are Rushed, Unfinished Products” section …
Each of the first three “Full Color” volumes of the “Artificial Humans & Cell arc” (released together in a batch last month) came packed with some general Q&A sessions along with some special, bonus exposition by Toriyama again. We learned a lot about No. 16 and No. 19 last month! Released this week in Japan, …
Akira Toriyama has been on a roll divulging new bits of Dragon Ball in-universe information. Last year’s lead-up to the new film Battle of Gods gave us plenty to absorb, but even this year has seen the reveal of Goku’s mother Gine and new tidbits such as an explanation of Dr. Gero’s deceased son being …
It is not often that we get new manga from Akira Toriyama. Jaco the Galactic Patrolman started as a fun little story back in 2013 with a new trio of characters, but by the time its collected edition saw a print release in Japan, we not only had a full Dragon Ball prequel on our …
With the revival of Dragon Ball Kai for the Majin Boo arc now a couple episodes into its run, it made sense to tackle its new opening and ending themes for our “Lyrics” section. The TV-sized version of the lyrics for both “Kuu-Zen-Zetsu-Go: Like Nothing Before or After” (Opening #2) and “Dear Zarathustra” (Ending #3) …
