Re: Dragon Ball Genkida Matsuri 2026 on january 25th will have Dragon Ball announcements
One Piece is big in the States too. I’m not plugged into the One Piece fandom to know how it’s perceived globally. As far as I know it’s not a second religion in Mexico like Dragon Ball or anything but it’s definitely not “Only big in Japan” ala Anpanman
I have zero skin in the game in ...

Re: Dragon Ball Genkida Matsuri 2026 on january 25th will have Dragon Ball announcements
I can’t believe their adapting Moro after all these years the rights dispute really did a number huh , how do you think they’ll handle it
I think it'll be a limited 20-25 episode arc like Daima was, which is how I think the franchise will continue moving forward; limited length arcs every ...

Re: Is original Dragon Ball really that unpopular?
I think it has more to do with how the anime industry specifically the old school production companies in Japan, in this case toei’s handling of foreign distribution as a hazard afterthought to then a curated given of which the dragon ball anime adaptation was caught up in the current of that ...

Re: Why did 4Kids One Piece FAIL while Funimation's Dragon Ball succeeded?
Pokemon is a easier anime to edit and localize than Dragon Ball was. That's probably why the dub was consider to be better than what Funimation was doing.
Or maybe it was just because it was pretty well done by that era's standard, while the Dragonball Z dub was utter garbage.
But ...

Re: FUNimation vs 4kids description of the series
] 4kids one piece was literally reviled as it was contemporary, it actually had the outlook towards it soften in retrospect’ the rage was from back then and it died on toonami next to dbz and naruto in its prime, with new dubbed eps having guns acknowledging death albeit euphemistic, was a thing ...

Re: FUNimation vs 4kids description of the series
i stand by the notion that 4kids was one of the worst dubbing companies to ever stumble upon anime, they are the sole reason why one piece reputation in the west is tarnished whereas it's a global phenomena outside of NA.
You say that but somehow Funimation didn’t ruin Dragon Ball Z’s ...

For the sake of constructive criticism, I'm going to rewrite your wall of text with proper pronunciation, with some liberties taken to get across what I think you're trying to say.
Please study this carefully--this isn't something I'll do in the future.

FUNimation vs 4kids description of the series
One issue I see come up on this forum is how misrepresented DBZ is in the English anglosphere. It's conditioning is dissident to the original language version, and its blunders tend to bleed into other foreign language dubs.

Re: How relevant is Barry Watson in any sense
I realize I’m only guessing at what you’re trying to say but Goku was in his 20s during most of Dragon Ball Z he definitely wasn’t anywhere close to 14
Younger Goku in the original Dragon Ball dub (where he was actually around the age of 14)didn’t get the Superman treatment like in Z and ...

Re: How relevant is Barry Watson in any sense
The core thrust of this topic is pretty simple, cut and dry as far as I'm concerned:
Barry Watson is a total zero in the TV and animation industry barring his involvement in the FUNimation Dragon Ball Z dub: thus while he has obviously had no lasting impact or success within broader media outside ...
