Re: Dragon Ball Recut [COMPLETE], Dragon Ball Kai Recut [COMPLETE]
Honestly he could probably make the "definitive" version of Dragon Ball Recut with the recent color corrected footage release done by the Seed of Might team. Not that the recent French Blu-ray master doesn't look great. AB Grope's also taking their sweet ass time getting Set 2 done. Consi...

Is there are recording of him doing that?

Re: Iyoku's plan to keep Dragon Ball alive and kicking until 2034.
I'm hoping this could means we can see more short term anime projects in the near future. A new movie every few years is a given at this point, but it would be nice to see more content like spinoffs, or Daima being one of several mainline mini-series. I suspect the Super anime hasn't returned for t...

Re: Inclusivity towards women in Dragon Ball?
As I've been rewatching the original Dragon Ball anime (in Japanese) I started thinking about something that Sean Schmmel said at a panel for the Super Broly movie at NYC. He mentioned that he thought it was a win for feminism that Goku is voiced by a woman into adulthood in Japan. "And, #femi...

Re: Inclusivity towards women in Dragon Ball?
Women have typically voiced young boy characters since the beginning of the animation industry (and if I knew jackshit about the radio serials of yore, I'd guess back then, too). Right. As cool as it is that Masako Nozawa got to voice Goku well into giant pecs and abs of steel adulthood, it says mo...

Re: How skilled are Dragon ball characters as martial artist?
I'm also reminded of a quote from Bruce Lee, who said he is not afraid of the man who has learned 1000 kicks. He is afraid of the man who trained the same kick 1000 times. These repetitive maneuvers hone precision and instinct, and reduce the time wasted through thinking. So if we describe fighting...

Re: Torishima "Son Goku and Blooma should fall in love"
Then again, Blooma herself said main reason she collect balls, is so she can get a boyfriend :) With make me wonder, would Shenlong grant such wish? Is it allowed to mess with emotions and make someone love against their will? I always figured he would just find someone who would already be a good ...

Re: When will Nozawa and Horikawa be replaced?
I finally think I know why stuff like Dragon Ball Super SUCKS so bad on a fundamental level. On paper, it's not that bad. There are some ok things about it but you sort of after a while start thinking about things while watching it like... Why is the sequel to DBZ so much worse in every conceivable...

Re: Has Toriyama Ever Given An Interview About Ultra Instinct?
We know that Toriyama came up with the principles of ultra instinct all the way back in the RoF movie, it being a martial arts technique where you can move your body without thinking. The movie also establishes it as the signature style of Whis. I have a feeling that Toriyama's hands off approach t...

Masterful work as always. Eagerly awaiting the definitive version of Dragon Ball Recut with the color-corrected AB Groupe Blu-Ray discs! I gave Kai Recut a look, and despite being, as expected, an extremely competent edit... Kai sadly just doesn't do it for me :cry: There's barely any hint of the o...

Re: One Piece Remake, fans are so lucky...
Anime remakes have a great track record, Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, Hunter X Hunter, Fruits Basket, Hellsing Ultimate, Shaman King and Jojo's Bizarre Adventure all spring to mind as generally well liked and in some cases surpassing the original. Yeah, but then you have remakes that are so lif...

Re: When will Nozawa and Horikawa be replaced?
They wont be replaced until they literally cant voice act anymore. Not until YOU decide you stopped liking their performances. I didnt want to be mean but these threads are constant and in poor taste. What is in poor taste here? I'm criticizing their performance, not them personally. Whichever way ...

Re: What are the best episode and scenes in DBS
In spite of me despising most of the Tournament of Power that Kefla fight where Goku slid across the beam with the Kamehameha was sick and hasn't been topped. I also really liked Jiren's elimination scene in the anime, and there were a few well animated moments with cool fight choreograph in the Tru...

Re: Dragon Ball 2024 40th Anniversary Predictions
TOEI promoted Funimation's 30th anniversary collection Blu-Ray on Twitter, but I don't think they did any more than that. If I remember correctly I think Funimation described it as a collaboration between the two, with both Toei of America and Funimation advertising the Blu-ray set, but I don't thi...

Re: Toei is throwing uncut and improved dubs at every OLD franchise of theirs (Would you like some for Dragon Ball?)
I personally don't see much of a point in doing that. I don't think that there's a significant market for it. The best case scenario for this would be Ocean Kai since it's already finished, but Toei has no interest in releasing it. Also it wouldn't be the clean sweep dub which you presented for this...

Re: Dragon Ball 2024 40th Anniversary Predictions
Considering that it's Toei I imagine that they'll do something big to celebrate, and they'll most likely screw it up somehow. Why do you thinks they'll do something big? Because that'll make us more angry when they screw it up. Kinda like that 30th anniversary Blu-ray of Z. (Which was technically a...
