FUNimation Entertainment has returned to the beginning of Dragon Ball Z. The first 63 episodes have been remastered and rerecorded, and were recently released the as Ultimate Uncut Special Edition. Now fans can see Dragon Ball Z the way it was ...

FUNimation probably knows what its doing with this release.
I'm just amazed that they control nearly 1/4 of the entire market...

Yes, seeing as though the latest 3 releases of the Dragonball Z DVDs managed to chart on Oricon (that's some indication right?).

The 16x9 really doesn't bother me all that much.
What's really noticeable though is that dirt and glue, it's all over the place. I've never seen any of FUNimation's Ultimate Uncut releases, so I'm wondering if they were similar?
I recently bought Viz's latest Ranma 1/2 release of Digital Dojo, which ...

The manga is defintely as popular as Dragonball was, if not more so.
The anime, I'm not so sure. I believe it mangaes to land in the top 10s of Animation, but I have no idea how Dragonball/Dragonball Z/Dragonball GT did. DVD sales though, not sure on that, the Dragonbox singles are selling pretty ...

Unfortunately, I think FUNimation will probably continue this, seeing as casual fans of the show may pick it up for the price. Even BestBuy is selling it for about $35, which isn't that much more than the MSRP of a single R1 anime DVD.
Simply because of the cheap price, it probably will sell.
And I ...

What's the overall quality of the picture/sound?
Better than the original Funimation take? Worse?

I really don't think Naruto is too big among casual fans. I believe as well it's appealing more to the more anime-oriented individuals in the US. I'm not saying it's just limited to that, as there probably are a good number of the casual fans. This may be due in part to the anime market having ...
