Re: Things that grind your gears

Whew, it’s been awhile. I’ve been lurking a long while, but something just happened that really grinds my gears. F’ing Funimation’s episode “limits” on episodes per release. Just finished set 2 and they leave off the LAST episode of Golden Freeza saga!? Really? That really grinds my gears. They were...

Re: What was your first Dragon Ball DVD?

My first home video was a VHS of Movie 2. That is the reason why it is my favorite DBZ movie - purely for nostalgia.

PAL is only in Europe, Australia and parts of Africa and Asia. All of the older (last generation) consoles are region locked meaning that you need to mod them or buy that regions console to play their games.

English version, you can read what is going on, you won't watch the intro because it is crappy quality and the minimal amount of voicework is forgetable.

I actually kind of hoped that Ginyu would be the cover so that each release sort of had a "main" villian (at that time in the show) on each set.

I kind of have an estimated guess on what the sets after the ones Madman reveled might be. This is going off of the assumption that Funimation will stick with 5-6 discs and 30-40 episodes per set range. Season 4 (Garlic Jr - until when Bulma and Gohan find Cell's time machine) Season 5 (Piccolo and ...

Because a broken toaster cannot be brought back to 'life'. In the end, he is an android, a complete mechanical being and Shen Long didn't see him as a living being. Plus, when he 'died' he wouldn't have gone to Enma's place therefore not counted as dead.

Wouldn't it take the Earthlings a really long time to actually reach Namek? From what I remember from the Saiyan saga, Earth's technology was not advanced enough to make it to Namek within a reasonable time. Well, seeing how Capsule Corp. made Goku's spacecraft, I would assume that they kept the pl...

Um...Just some clarification, the new sets MSRP is supposed to be $49.99 right? According to that Navarre Product Info page, the MSRP is $29.99, was it always $29.99 and I was just mistaken?

For me it is a easy buy. I don't own the series on DVD or VHS and haven't watched the show since it first aired on CN, so this will be a convenient and cheap way to pick up the entire series, plus the fact that the quality of the video should be the best we've seen (for those of us not lucky enough ...
