Re: Funimation's 30th anniversary collectible home video release

So, it seems like a Spider-Man 2099 thing where his suit's supposed to be black, but with blue highlights, but people confuse it to be all blue. Saiyan's are supposed to have black hair, so the highlights thing makes sense. Raditz and Vegeta were given blue and brown hair respectively in the anime ...

Re: Funimation's 30th anniversary collectible home video release

Toei don't even have the film masters themselves. Pony Canyon has them who are notoriously reluctant to give access to camera negatives for remasters. Even Akira has had both of its remasters done from prints. I wouldn't be surprised if Kai was done from an inter-positive or a first gen positive......

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

This shot could look something like this https://imgsli.com/MTQ2NTYw I think this thread has good intentions but it's not going to go anywhere realistically. The idea is interesting, of taking the exact measurement (of the colours) and apply them to the footage, but as many people pointed out you ca...

Upscale or new remaster? I've watched a review & seen some screenshot comparisons. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ppuCmaH_gk8 https://twitter.com/fredjfrancis/status/1530278831210303488 It seems to be an upscale of SD materials, but at least a more competent one than VIZ's 2014 version & t...

I'm not sure if everyone is aware of this, but the first seventeen DB/Z movies are available in HD on Prime Video Japan. If anyone's interested, I can post screenshots to compare some of them with the Dragon Box DVDs. In 2018 Toei released the Movies and TV specials in HD. https://i.imgur.com/sMxnW...

Toei green tint

This is something that I've been thinking for a while so I decided to make a thread about it. To here your opinion on this. A lot of the Toei home releases have been green tinted? Why, before jumping to conclusions I will give two (potential) explanations. - The first explanation is that there expor...

Re: Why Do People Think Goku Wins All the Time?

Like many people point out here he doesn't win all the time. it's just people's perception that's it (because he's one of the most popular shonen characters). And practically whenever a new powerful character becomes popular they always ask "but can he beat Goku"
