Kanzenshuu

I really did not want it to come to this, but I'm going to play my hand, "shoot my shot" as the kids say to try to right this personal wrong for myself.

If anyone is in possession of a Vegeta Saga II Starter Box from the Ultimate Uncut Special Edition releases, I'd be very interested to deal for ...

This really doesn't make any difference at all. Kai aired and re-aired in other places after they got newer properties already. The last movie also played in theatres here, so we're in no different position than we were a year ago.

That is a good point, but for one thing, movies are a separate ...

I would have shown pictures of the original, but the only difference is that on original copies, there is no logo on the front cover and the back and spine have the 1994 FUNimation logo, whereas here the front, spine, and back all have the 2005 logo. And that is by all accounts the only superficial ...

I just want to bring up a recent development that may seem irrelevant at face value, but I feel brings the current situation of this particular topic in perspective better than anything else.

Well no. Funimation did not have a hand in producing the Saban dub. They DID produce it. It's their dub. Not Saban's, not Ocean's, not Pioneer's. Funimation's. They are the key players in the existence of that dub. The fact that the main people involved with that dub are no longer associated with ...

What a surprise, they didn't like the broadcast audio out in the wild! :roll:


Didn't GT air in stereo on Animax Japan and get released on DVD in Taiwan?

I do apologize to all for the semi-necropost, but I really felt the need to respond to this one point since it was brought up and that ...

A few words to the wise for you:

1) Kanzenshuu has pretty staunchly always set a precedent against file sharing and download links, so you may be seeking this stuff out in the wrong place.

2) If you're going to seek out file sharing on a board that's against it anyway, both you as well as your ...

Does anyone know between the image comparisons of the VHS releases shown in this thread, which one would the be the letterboxed tape and which one would be the true 4:3 version?

My instincts tell me the original releases are letterboxed and the the re-releases from 1996-1997 are the 4:3 issues, but ...

I don't think it does any company, entity, or anything any good whatsoever to blatantly ignore or write off ANY frame of comparison whatsoever just because the idea of the former looking inferior by comparison is uncomfortable.

Granted, the comparison has to be fair, and mine was. I even said ...

Fair enough, I see what you're saying. I think it's best to ignore people who have taken it upon themselves to get mad at something being leaked online when it would otherwise never get released.

I get the "support the official release" mindset, but there has to be an official release to support ...

Snip


With the examples you gave it sounds like they those shows were getting released and hackers just leaked them ahead of schedule.

I know many people are still stuck in the denial stage but Ocean Kai isn't getting an official streaming or tv deal ever. It's been 13 years and Kai is long ...

On the Internet Archive, at this point it might as well just leak online instead of expecting a tv deal to ever happen

Apologies for the odd timing, but I'm only quoting this now because something just occurred to me regarding this concept.

Even if a leak, by some once in a lifetime alignment of ...

Sorry, but that's probably not something for you or any other single individual to decide.
There have been lots of unexpected releases of pre-Y2K media restorations by different companies (particularly in JP itself) with no word of what may or may not be coming next. It's by no means an abnormal ...

AB also has a history of communicating nothing.

Fine, but 14 months? What are they doing over there?

Even with Level 1.1, Level 1.2 came out the following month. And they even had dates for 2.1 and 2.2 before they ultimately got the axe.

Granted, I'm not even asserting that AB should be ...

Yeah I'm not sure I buy that they were trying to trick fans.

By 2005 the US had the Texas cast for the vast majority of the series. Part of the reason for the redub was to make those episodes more consistent with the rest, and also to hype up the re-release as a new experience.

I'm mixed on ...

Funimation was pretty straight forward that they were releasing these episodes with their in-house cast. I believe they even went as far as saying "The voices fans know and love"

They weren't trying to trick anyone into thinking it would be an uncut version of the Ocean dub with the Ocean cast ...

Here's something I never see anyone bring up or discuss.

When Pioneer's contract with FUNimation completely expired and FUNimation was free to release 'that' portion of Dragon Ball Z uncut, their marketing for it was... interesting to say the least.

[APOLOGIES IN ADVANCE FOR THE INTERLACING IN ...

They used the broadcast audio without permission? Can you back that up?


It's true. I didn't draw attention to it in the video on purpose, but they straight up just grabbed a group's version off of a piracy website that was pre-synced and had all the issues patched out. It's completely 1:1 ...
