Re: AB Video to release OG Dragon Ball on Blu-Ray

The broadcast audio is straight up lifted from the group of fans on that synced the BA to the DBOX and released it on the internet. It has the exact same fixes and corrections that they did themselves.

Re: Rebuilding the Dragon Ball Z Character Color Design Sheets for Color Correction

Also Edit: Can someone create a thread similar to the Color Correcting one? I got disappointed when I came back to the site and saw it locked. Our group will make a thread here once we complete one of our color-corrected series releases since it'll be more useful than comparing 50 different variati...

Re: Fan group scanning/remastering of multi-generational film prints previously owned by FUNimation

Not sure if this counts as piracy or not since it's only part of the movie and it's literally the only way to see it like this, but the full reel was uploaded to the Internet Archive. It's quite something.

Re: Dragon Ball on American TV - A Concise History

Funimation aired their test dub of OG Dragon Ball where Goku was named "Zero" in August 1995 at a 1pm timeslot on KtZZ. I have never heard of the test dub actually airing. Do you have a source for this? Cartoon Network aired the three episode version of Tree of Might on 29 January 1999 at...

Re: Time Frame On a Dragon Ball/DBZ/DBGT HD Remaster

I fear that you could be right about this. I just cannot fathom in my mind how all of these anime classics, and even cult classics have received the proper HD treatment, and the #1 money making anime franchise in the world has to sit there and be subject to this bad level of treatment.

Re: Time Frame On a Dragon Ball/DBZ/DBGT HD Remaster

DBZ has already been "remastered", in Japan it's called Kai, in America it was "remastered" for the FUNi BDs. Both of these came from new film scans. Regardless of how shitty they are, people bought and are still buying the FUNi BDs so there is no incentive to release any other k...

Re: Goku is disabled

Goku is just a country hick who didn't interact with the "real" world for most of his child life. That, combined with his natural laid-back nature, pretty much explains his entire personality. There is nothing more to it than that since I doubt Toriyama was thinking more than "haha fu...

Look at the green tint around the lines of her hair and eyes, also her skin is generally kind of blotchy with green spots in the raw DBOX, all of which are a product of chromatic abberation, which is removed in our version.

Not quite sure I understand your response.

No. I don't think I will. I don't trust any of the current creatives, including Toriyama himself, of being able to craft any type of coherent and engaging story with these characters anymore.

Re: did Yamamoto's plagiarism contribute to the dbz = rock music mentality?

I mean, I'm pretty sure many English speakers associate DBZ with rock music due to the rock music (or rock-like music) used as the replacement score in DBZ. The "Next time on Dragon Ball Z..." electric guitar riff likely being the most iconic. It's nice to reminisce about some fan videos,...
