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: When will Nozawa and Horikawa be replaced?

Gonna tell you the deal. You sometimes have to start thinking about these things from a different perspective when ideas such as "When" will Nozawa and Horikawa be replaced come into the picture, it's a bad sign from experience you are treating this as if every bad decision that could be m...

Re: Your experience of watching Dragon Ball/Dragon Ball Z/ Dragon Ball GT Dragon boxes on CRT-tv?

I have experience with this. I am going to tell you right now. It's not worth it. Even in the best-case scenario when I had everything set up correctly and watched the Dbox in a pitch-dark room (CRTs have bad contrast when there is any ambient light in the room) the image was still blurrier and less...

Re: Dragon Ball - Finally Fully Color Corrected

Thank you so much for all of your hard work. Looks incredible on my OLED. Glad to hear it. If you don't mind me asking, what is the resolution of that OLED screen? It's an LG C2 so 4k. So far I've only watched a few episodes via Infuse on my Apple TV 4K and it looks great - but there's no support f...

This is what the Dragon Box should have been.

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

If they were first shown in widescreen and that's what everyone in the public first ever saw them in ,then I think it's perfectly fine to have them in that format, although I don't mind 4:3 either. It's not a deal breaker either way. This to me isn't the same as cropping the show to 16:9. (Which is ...

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

It's an order of magnitude better than Toei's overall, like yeah some dark detail is lost but what do you expect? Fans don't have access to the original film prints. Want everything in one package? Impossible I'm afraid, until companies start doing it themselves. (Which they wont) It's time to accep...

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

This is just sad. It’s incredible how quickly the video got taken down by Toei. They are SCARED! Can’t let the fans expose Toei’s laziness and narcissism. It’s fine though, everybody knows Toei have the goods but refuse to share them with the rest of the world, while DB is at peak popularity. Talk a...

This is very neat and no doubt the effort that went into this is monumental. However, the good always come with some unfortunate news as well. I’m not sure if everyone here knows, so apologies if this was already covered, but after looking into the reddit thread from where this movie got found, it s...

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...

What example is there to show for a color chart? Do you even understand what you're asking? I am asking you something very simple. Show us good results of your method working on the Dragon Boxes.

There is no way to know. That’s the thing. His method is so far out there and it is built on layers and layers of wild assumptions that I don’t even know where to begin.

So, in other words, completely unusable on the Dragon Boxes as I said initially, and many others have said over the course of this thread. It has nothing to do with “not knowing how to use them” Thus making the value of the color chart questionable at best, even ignoring all the other caveats. Thank...

One thing I want to add on the subject -- and forgive me if this has already been addressed (perhaps ad nauseam) -- but since the 0-255 values are being addressed, I think it's worth mentioning the standard 16-235 encoding for broadcast, correct? I wish I knew (rather, remembered from my AMV heyday...
