Re: Episode #0500 (01 April 2023)

Congrats on 500 episodes!! Notes as I listen...! I can kinda relate to this clip show format; back in my Weta Digital days having a Kanzenshuu episode to listen to on the bus home was a daily ritual for me, and while I kept up with the latest episodes, I also went back through almost all of the old ...

Please people, READ OUR TRIVIA! We're joking about in the opening of our post but we legitimately spent four hours making sure our Trivia was right for both the movie and the leaked script! It's actually our third-longest set of Trivia, after End of Z and End of GT!

Re: DragonballZ Rewatch, Week 420 - Dragonball Evolution (CURRENT WEEK)

Something that my memory stored as cool is Yamcha. Maybe I'm being fooled by my brain, but I recall him being quite enjoyable. HAH! Hard no on that one. It's a celebrity singer doing a REALLY bad version of Funimation's Yamcha? Y'know how people call him Surfer Yamcha? Evolution's version cranks th...

Re: DragonballZ Rewatch, Week 420 - Dragonball Evolution (CURRENT WEEK)

Agreed, I don't feel the need to ever watch this movie ever again. That said, there were a few ideas I rather liked about it: Having some time with Goku and Gohan before the latter dies was really nice. As far as I can recall we've never actually gotten scenes like this outside of brief flashbacks, ...

Re: Dragon Ball Rewatch, Week 115 - GT 64, Path to Power (CURRENT WEEK)

I’ve never once heard this supposed rumor that Toriyama came back for the Evil Dragons until just now, and I can’t say I buy it. It simply does not seem like the kind of thing he would come up with. When Robo brought it up I figured it was in the mentality of "well the good bits were done by T...

Re: How could the anime fit around the movies? My thought experiment!

The best way to explain Broly's first movie is to say it happens after Cell became perfect, but before Cell games, even that has its own issues, but compared to other movies, they're minor. The main issue with this is that Vegeta, Piccolo, and Trunks were all taking turns training in the Time Chamb...

This was really cool to look over and I bet it was a ton of fun. It was!

Re: How could the anime fit around the movies? My thought experiment!

Fun idea but I don't like Vegeta killing the gang when Goku is alive, he'd fight first and they'd only jump in when Vegeta is wounded and they had another year of training. He'd be harder to forgive. This is the same Goku who let Frieza go after he killed Krillin right in front of him. Not really s...

Re: Dragon Ball Rewatch, Week 115 - GT 64, Path to Power (CURRENT WEEK)

Couldn't resist noticing one more piece of trivia:
  • GT Episode 64 is the first time somebody physically touches a Dragon God, with Vegeta also being close enough to touch Shen Long's head. It's a stark contrast to the characters spending 40 years keeping their distance from him.

MyVisionity's post inspired the following Mamba trivia!

Re: Dragon Ball Rewatch, Week 115 - GT 64, Path to Power (CURRENT WEEK)

If you DO end up doing a Rewatch of the modern stuff, IMO you should start with the Jump Special, and also include Episode of Bardock and Plan to Eradicate the Super Saiyans, since it's what me and Robo would have done I'm sure (the only things we abjectly skipped were the safety specials and Plan ...

I would be up for doing a "Revival era" series of rewatch threads covering Super and the new movies if anyone would be interested in collaborating with me, just DM and we can go from there (although be warned we'll need to work hard as Robo and KBABZ did :lol:). Robo4900 and KBABZ most ce...

How could the anime fit around the movies? My thought experiment!

Okay, so, with me and Robo's big Dragon Ball Rewatch thread concluded, I can finally share the fruits of my labour! The Rewatch was a fantastic reason for me to dive into the movies, because it allowed me to try and answer a thought experiment question I've had for a while now: Assuming all the clas...

Re: Dragon Ball Rewatch, Week 115 - GT 64, Path to Power (CURRENT WEEK)

I don’t get why people voted to cover the movie alongside episode 64, but since episode 64 has already been talked about to death for the past 20+ years, I guess I’ll focus on talking about the movie. This was actually an idea that I had very early on and I'm really glad it's what wound up happenin...

Re: A Kai Version of DB (1986 OG Series)

I've been working on a "Dragon Ball Kai: The First Chapters" project that cuts down the show, but it's very much a spare time thing so it won't be done for a long, long, long while. And it focuses on the Funi dub, so those wanting the Japanese original will be left out of the loop. I think...
