Re: The reason Goku stayed dead that no one talks about

He didn't get possessed due to Goku only being on earth for 1 day. You're missing his point. If Goku hadn't come to earth for one day Vegeta wouldn't have given himself to Bobbidi's power to close the gap between him and Goku. No Goku on earth for 24 hours No Vegeta choosing to get possessed to be ...

Re: goku won the fight against cell, cell surviving is a plot hole and the english dub is to blame.

Yes, you are wrong in your thinking. Goku didn't blow Cell up, Cell blew himself up and Cell came back so I'm not sure why it matters? You're gonna hold onto a line that makes no sense in spite of what actually happened on panel/screen? Goku also wasn't fighting Cell anymore. Gohan was and Cell blow...

Re: The reason Goku stayed dead that no one talks about

It's not a matter of intelligence. Vegeta only agreed to fall under Babidi's spell because Goku was only in the living world for a day. So no, without Goku, the Buu arc doesn't happen. He didn't get possessed due to Goku only being on earth for 1 day. You're missing his point. If Goku hadn't come t...

He's referring to this one: https://youtu.be/TuFd5a_XLhc?si=rs2PNnJr6XnNkcrB It does get confusing when Funimation has like 5 different themes for one series. Oh, he also said "ending" rather than "opening", my bad. Huh. My bad, my brain read opening. He's probably referring to ...

A certain anime cartoon that didn't start airing until the late 90s in the U.S? Actually neither original Dragon Ball or Dragon Ball Z premiered in the US in the late 90s. For the former we obviously have the 1989/90 Harmony Gold dub and for the latter Nippon Golden Network began airing it, albeit ...

Re: Did Fuji TV air the original Dragon Ball anime completely uncensored?

I.....how else do you think people knew the show was being censored for American kids when it didn't get a home video release until 2003 in Japan?

Why do you think other countries had to edit the show if a censored version for Japanese television already exist?

Re: Faithful English covers of DBZ openings, endings, and insert songs

All of GT's dub was scored by Mark Menza. Menza did the music for Z movies 1, 6 (which is where the movie theme used for the remastered dub came from) ,7 , 8 (mixed with recycled Faulconer tracks and licensed rock and metal bands) , 11 and all of Dragon Ball GT. I see, I guess that's the only DB se...

Re: Faithful English covers of DBZ openings, endings, and insert songs

Honestly, the only reason we probably even got covers for the GT opening and ending songs is because all they had was Step into the Grand Tour which was too short and didn't go with the unaltered animation forcing them to put in a minimum amount of effort for GT's Green Brick release If I may digre...

Re: Faithful English covers of DBZ openings, endings, and insert songs

Yeah, see? It's SO weird. Ngl, it's part of why I just can't bring myself to care for the Orange Brick redubs from 2005-2009. The fact that they simply used the 'Z' movie theme as its intro, just... no. It's frustrating because it appears Funimation was slightly inconvenience by Toei and came up wi...

Re: Faithful English covers of DBZ openings, endings, and insert songs

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't CHA-LA HEAD CHA-LA and WE GOTTA POWER the only DB songs FUNimation HASN'T dubbed? If not, that's REALLY ironic to me, given how 'Z' is more-or-less FUNi's bread-and-butter in terms of DB stuff. As far as opening songs go yes. They also never dubbed Zenkai Power o...

Re: Would a complete DBZ English redub be necessary?

While GT is by no means perfect, it's also the victim of a lot of retroactive reception outside of Japan, where it genuinely flopped. It averaged a viewership rating of 14 percent. It didn't flop in Japan. Hell, the highest rated episode of GT pulled a viewership of 19.7 percent https://www.kanzens...
