There was a poll and 'after episode 64' won.
No that was "The Path to Power". He meant "A Hero's Legacy".

Re: Dragon Ball Rewatch, Week 104 - GT 11-15 (CURRENT WEEK)

I know it might not be appropriate to post this right now since we're apparently going to watch "The Path to Power" after the GT rewatch is done, but I still feel the need to say it: am I the only one who felt that the way that movie ended seems pretty abrupt in comparison to, say, "C...

Re: Is censorship still needed to keep Dragon Ball Relevant to younger people?

Why mutilate a show so much to make it suitable for pre-schoolers when it's not meant for them to begin with? Oh my, imagine what any of the Dragon Ball series would have been like if it WAS edited to fit that demographic! https://youtu.be/HfBBbR4Z_RU Nah, I'd say this opening is more babyish: http...

Re: A theory regarding the lost Frontier dub

I have no faith in TOEI to still have a copy considering they don't even care to preserve their own audio masters, so why would they treat a once-off attempt at dubbing Dragon Ball into English any better? To add to my opinion on your thoughts regarding why Toei would still have a copy of that dub ...

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

I'm personally not expecting this to be better than Selecta Vision's release, because the French masters aren't the best, but who knows. Well, there's always the chance that they could use the Japanese masters and splice the French dub audio on. What’s digibeta’s? From my research it is a variation...

The earliest DVDs did that to pretty much every character name. It was eventually discontinued later on.

According to Kanzenshuu the gap is 5 years. She was 5 in EoZ, meaning she's 10 in GT.
Ah, my mistake. I wasn't certain about whether I did see that claim that she was 16 anyway.

Re: Dragon Ball Rewatch, Week 102 - GT 1-5 (CURRENT WEEK)

To a certain extent, I feel like whenever Pan gets cross about being treated like a kid, my response is "But you're 10." But yeah, I can sorta understand where she's coming from. I think this would work better if she was 13 or 14, but it's not exactly a bad angle to approach a character, ...

Re: The many lost dubs of Dragon Ball

Supposedly, Speedy Video released a VCD of The History of Trunks under the name "The History of Trunk", which, assuming that Speedy's Dragon Ball VCD releases came out around 1999 (at least according to TV Tropes's page for The Tree of Might ), would have contained an in-house dub like the...

Re: A theory regarding the lost Frontier dub

Well, anything's possible. Who knows.

I also have to wonder how much of the dub was cut, if it was even cut at all. Personally, I think it would have been uncut.

Re: Why did the early Westwood dub never air in Canada?

I read somewhere on a YouTube comment that YTV had already bought the FUNimation dubbed versions of episodes 108-167 by the time the Westwood dub was in production.
