Kanzenshuu

I don't think it would differ much from the Funimation dub. The whole point was to "adapt" the series to an American audience.

I don't see the problem with it.

Maybe it seems off to you because it's one of the few moments where the characters actually act smart and use everything they have at their disposal instead of choosing the dumbest and hardest route to solve their problems


The only thing that's off here is your ...

It's highly unlikely that Toei would make a series that renders Super non-canon.

That is a H-U-G-E point of contention, my ...

I loved where the Kid Boo finale was headed. Earth exploding, the fight moving to Kaioshin's realm. The fighting, Vegeta's "hats off to Kakarot" (best moment in the saga), and even Fat Boo suddenly returning all made excellent stakes.

Namek was the problem. The moment Vegeta brings it up, the ...

The anime isn't something I ever thought to revisit in full, but the movies are good for a rewatch and Super does a good job of serving for highlight/clip fuel at least.
I have no desire to ever rewatch GT or Daima again. I could go the rest of my life forgetting they exist, Daima especially ...

I don't remember exactly, but I think animes like Gundam from '79 or the '80s have good audio quality, also because they're from Sunrise, and that company did preserve the good audio for decades.


Macross from 1983 had great sound quality.

Aoki Densetsu Shoot (1993) and Slam Dunk (1993) were ...

This has nothing to do with "mono" or "stereo". Only GT and the last two movies were even mastered in stereo. All of original DB and Z have only ever been mono. All that means is it just has one single audio channel, so no directionality. It has no impact whatsoever on the clarity of the sound ...

The most recent DBZ sets I own are the Dragon Box DVDs, released over a decade ago. I've yet to watch DBZ on blu-ray (or any hd form) because of the Japanese version's Mono problem. As far as I know, the blu-rays don't solve that issue since the Stereos are gone for good. But are there any ...

The main thing holding it back though is Goten and Trunks as the leads.


The unpopularity of these two characters is startling when u consider they're Goku and Vegeta's kids. People even blame them for messing up the Boo Saga even though Gotenks was a decent character, and the saga as a whole is ...

it's the natural progression of things
"Natural" has little to no place Super . Goku and Vegeta as pals has been a staple in fanfic since the days of DBZSC and Saiyan Island. If Super can cater to internet memes (which it does in spectacular fashion), it can certainly cater to that .

it's a ...

Great work.

Because you're not using live instruments/ brass sections, however, the style sounds closer to Kōichi Sugiyama's work on Dai no Daibouken (1991) than Kikuchi's.

Do you know of any reimaginings of Kikuchi's score using modern instruments? Always wanted to hear DBZ's japanese ost played ...

Keeping him near Goku's level has been one of the best decisions Super made as far as I'm concerned

Keeping him near Goku's level is logical. Keeping him near Goku's person is what baffles. He may not hate Goku as much as he did before, but it's still out of character for him to follow Goku ...

Daima felt too experimental and spinoff-ish for me, so it's not even in the running.

As a Vegeta fan, I'll have to pick GT for the simple reason that it respects the "closure" he had in Z .

Unlike in Super , Vegeta in GT kind of holds to his "Kakarot, You Are Number One!" admission. There's no ...

I don't know about playing up his innocence. For me personally, Goku developed a kind of fakeness during last 5-6 episodes of DBZ, when after beating Kid Buu he regained his place as the undisputed hero (a position he more or less shared with/ passed on to Gohan prior to that). Suddenly, the old ...
