Re: Isn’t It In Toei’s/Funimation’s Legal Right to Use The Original Broadcast Audio on Future Releases?
If you are aware enough of the existence of the Broadcast Audio on torrent sites, then you already have access to things that will never be on an official release. Both Toei and FUNi have an abysmal record on remastering Dragon Ball so it's probably better if they never touch the classic series' aga...

Re: Absurdities of claiming that canon does not exist
I feel like I'm wasting my time here but its generally accepted things written by Toriyama are canon anything that isn't directly written by him is not. The first Bardock tv special is considered non-canon because he didn't write it. The character Bardock is canon because he does show up in the man...

Re: Color Correcting the Dragon Box - 3 Part Spectacular
Animation works the same way, different film stocks will make the cels look different. Now once again, and I cannot stress this enough but I feel like I must, I have never said the cels, or more specifically the color reference charts, should not be used as a source, which is where I think the disc...

Re: Color Correcting the Dragon Box - 3 Part Spectacular
So you came up with this idea of a phantom film-color that you claimed to be the original intended color by the animator over cel color but then you don't have anything to back it up? I am stating a fact about the nature of film stock and animation in general because I actually work in this field a...

Re: Color Correcting the Dragon Box - 3 Part Spectacular
Point is original broadcast video is the final product, not cels. If you want to color-correct and/or remaster the dragon box to make it look like the real full intention, use the original fuji tv broadcast as reference. NOT cels. 16mm scans can look more stretched than cels, it's only natural. Esp...

Re: Color Correcting the Dragon Box - 3 Part Spectacular
I know is difficult to find cels that look identical to each other, because they were scanned in different ways, that is why I told you that the best source I've seen is this, because they look pretty homogeneous https://lineup.toei-anim.co.jp/ja/tv/dragon/episode/ https://lineup.toei-anim.co.jp/ja...

Re: Color Correcting the Dragon Box - 3 Part Spectacular
Maybe I don't like it because is cleary wrong? How come nobody used a cel as reference? But I'm still open mind on it, maybe the opening has a different aspect ratio compared to the episode? Using the cels as a reference is like saying a demo version of a game is the actual final product. Animati...

Re: Where can i find dragon ball z with original colors?
are there dvd singles with the japanese dub? https://streamable.com/q6wnxv for example. this is spanish but probably it was placed in a dvd single. This is 100% the Dragon Box. The colors are inconsistent during the course of the series. The Boo arc's biggest problem is that the episodes tend to ha...

Re: Source of Rumor that FUNi's Early Z Masters "Came From Mexico"
While talking about that, Sabat went on to say that when they were dubbing the show, the audio they had on-hand was the Spanish version, not the Japanese version. The odd thing is, the film they were receiving from Toei would have had the Japanese audio on it (which is how they had Japanese audio o...

Source of Rumor that FUNi's Early Z Masters "Came From Mexico"
This came up in a discussion today and I thought I'd ask here about it since others are more resourceful than me. For quite a while there has been a rumor that Funimation received its early DBZ materials for Season 3 (the first episodes they did in-house) from Mexico due to Toei not "sending th...

Re: DBZ Westwood/Ocean dub UK/YTV/EU [ENGLISH SUBTITLES] collaboration thread.
(is there even a Funi DVD release with ENGLISH transcripts? There are Japanese translated English subs, but I'm not sure if there is English scripts, lemme know) DBOX-synced dubtitles for the FUNi dub already exist for the entirety of DB/Z/GT, it would be far easier to start with those than to tran...

Re: Dale Kelly narration
I have never heard anyone use the argument that Dale Kelly sounds "natural" to describe his narration. If you like it, that's fine, but he's got the most unnatural and over the top performance of any of the English narrator VAs, which was obviously FUNi's intention with his casting and how...
