Our “Tidbits” section is one that we love a lot; it gives us a great place to collect random bits of information that do not make sense to flesh out into an entire multi-page “guide”, but still allow us to document some really great material. An upcoming addition to the section will cover a wealth

Here at Kanzenshuu, we covered the Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods original Japanese theatrical release back on Episode #0328 of our podcast followed by the Japanese home release back on Episode #0344. This time around on the show it’s time for our third major “official Battle of Gods release” celebration: North America! This week’s

Once again, Dragon Ball Kai is turning out to be an absolute mess, this time courtesy of its Majin Boo arc revival/extension. We recently detailed how the version currently being broadcast on Fuji TV in Japan appears to be a further-edited-down-version from what is being sent out to international licensees. This time around on our

It has been a crazy week for in-universe informational bombshells from original manga author Akira Toriyama. From the Boo arc-related tidbits in the June 2014 Saikyō Jump Q&A to the Artificial Human back-stories in the “Full Color” comics, all of fandom has scurried to go back and compare details to see what fits. This week

It’s all Bardock all the time this week on the show! Our buddy Lance joins us to really dissect the character across all of the primary media he comes from: the 1990 TV special, the 2011 manga/anime “sequel” to the TV special, and the recent bonus chapter. Who was Bardock? Who is Bardock now? Can

It sure has been a crazy month! It would be impossible to catch up on each bit of individual news since the last podcast episode, so we will likely break everything out into individual topics. To start things off, Kirran joins us again to review J-Stars Victory Vs on the PS3 and Vita. It is

While we have a brief moment to catch our breath before the Majin Boo arc of Dragon Ball Kai kicks into high gear, we decided to take a momentary and somewhat random look back at Dragon Ball Z Movie 8. We still have a full podcast episode dissecting Broli (the character, the obsessive fandom, etc.)

Being only about a month out from the revival of Dragon Ball Kai in Japan for the Majin Boo arc, it is to be expected that we will be crashing into walls of news left and right over the next several weeks. Some of the recent voice recast announcements along with the appointment of Norihito

Back in December we brought on Kirran / @LordMoonstone to do the job that the developers of the new video game Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Z were seemingly unwilling to do: explain what the heck the game was. Fighting game? Team-battle game? Both? Neither? This time around, Kirran joins us again to discuss the

The year is off to a strange start! Dragon Ball Kai is (finally?!) coming back, more books than you can shake a stick at are due out around the same time, and Dragon Ball Heroes continues its stranglehold on the youth of Japan. If you somehow fell asleep in 1997 and just woke back up,
