Yep. Thank god for Seed of Might.


I view SOM is to Dragon Ball in much the same fashion as what both Petr Harmy and Team Negative 1 has respectively done with the amazing Despecialized and 4Kxx fan restored versions of the unaltered theatrical/Pre SE editions of the original Star Wars trilogy ...

Buu's Funimation dub voice is the worst voice in that whole dub. The Teletubby talk is horrible, but the voice is much worse.

I hate that voice. I get giving him a childish voice, but the voice is just grating . It doesn't help that the Japanese Buu voice actor was incredible with nuanced ...

Nozawa has also been doing voice work for anime (among others) since the mid/late '60s, so she's by far one of if not the longest running VA's still active and Japan in particular.

I know in one of the Tenkaichi Budokai arcs either 21st or 22nd there’s a fighter who is clearly modeled after either Jackie Chan or Bruce Lee, and given Toriyama mentioned numerous times over the years his enjoyment of those kinds of classic martial arts films (kung fu.etc) especially starring the ...

The OG Dr. Slump anime is currently in the process of being fansubbed in it’s entirety, by a sub group known as “shiteatersubs” and as of the latest posting (back on April 30th) the sub release is up to episode 185. So about fifty some odd episodes remain before the complete series will be fully ...

I was doing a rewatch of the Android arc recently and, yeah, once you get into the 17 and 18 part of the story, it sounds like the actors are trying to sound less and less like they're just doing impressions of the Canadian cast. Sabat's modern Vegeta performance kicks in around Vegeta vs ...

Yeah, and even well before SOM’s color corrected release had started coming out i was surely fine with the Dragon Boxes for DBZ, the Blue Bricks for Dragon Ball and the original single discs for GT even with their flaws as the best available options at the time a few years ago. It really is ...

The US DBZ Dragon Boxes are overrated. Way to expensive nowadays, the audio sync with some episodes is off and it just looks meh visually. I sometimes find the Orange Bricks look better to me. I don't have the US DBZ Dragon Box but i don't like it either.

I think the Marathon play feature ...

The muffled JP audio of OG DB & DBZ is good as it feels like you're watching it from a far vantage point in the show


Um, no. That’s not the way DB and DBZ in Japanese is supposed to sound. The only reason it’s that way to begin with is because Toei binned their master audio recordings of the ...

The dub can be alright nowadays but the "legacy cast" - the guys who have been around since 1999 really bog it down. There's a large segment of the fanbase that would riot if that happened so you know that's not happening anytime soon.

Mmmm I think Schemmel is fine as Goku thoguh his Kaio HAS ...

Holy shit, the animation in these specials was a fucking war crime. Recession era Toei... :sick:


Um yeah, Toei was definitely having major budget issues with their anime productions in the early to mid 2010’s, which is why One Piece in that era but especially DB Super’s animation early on ...

Yes, and even now that still doesn’t make any sense to me almost seven years later. So, apparently he was cagey about it to the point of causing one of the previous Goku voice actors from the Ocean/Saban days to be barred from the aforementioned convention? I dunno what the issue was, as it’s ...

Yeah, and I’ve never quite understood Schemmel’s possessive attachment to his role as Goku and that having fueled his actions at times. It’s not like he was and is the one and ONLY English dub voice for the character in FUNimation’s dubs of the DB franchise over the years (that being all the ...

Regarding your second para, start sentences like an adult, maybe? We're usually polite here to others.

Secondly, I said, "for fun" and I know Sabat has mellowed down a lot lately, but these guys were hella insecure about their roles as these characters way back when. As long as there's ...

The Saiyaman stuff, his Next World training with the Elder Kaioshin and the Z-Sword among others had some potential but then his character arc pretty much petered out after that point.

I still don't see any of this as his character arc petering out. The culmination of Gohan's throughline in ...

It really feels to me as though Toriyama didn't fully think through the long term ramifications of the "passing the torch" aspect of trying to succeed Goku with Gohan in the Cell arc, and then come the Buu arc after trying to make him have a meaningful role more or less fumbled then he effectively ...

I think it's odd (and kinda funny) in retrospect nearly 20 years later how FUNimation had only went so far with the partial re dub for the orange bricks. While the preceding re dub a few years earlier made sense for the first 67 episodes for the UUE broadcast (and sadly canceled DVD release) which ...
