Re: Manga Entertainment UK DVD question

From what I remember on a old Manga UK podcast episode Jerome Mazandarani said that they created this release for mainstream stores which would normally not stock Manga UK titles. I remember him saying he had a deal in place with retailer Sainsburys to stock these discs because of the performance of...

Re: Dragon Ball things you never want to hear again

not really a thing I don’t want to hear again but what I hate is: people who bash or attack fans of a particular version of Dragon Ball. fans who purposely deceiving each other eg. Dragon Ball Hoshi. I also hate that reoccurring "i hate the Japanese version of Dragon Ball because Goku is voice ...

Fandom & You

Ok, so as part of my Media Studies degree at University I am looking into aspects of media fandom, discussing how a piece of media is used by its audience and what people who actively consume that media get out of it. Partly why I am bring it up is that in discussing how different fans have approach...

Re: DBZKai comes to the UK

It is doing well but I'd still feel better if it was the number 1 show. Yeah so would I, but considering the show has been off television for around a decade and there is no real promotion for it anywhere I’m glad the show has done as well as it has. Edit: apart from a few social network posts from...

Re: Anyone know any good DVD price comparison sites?

there are no real price comparison sites for UK import items, just check the main sites Amazon, Play.com and ebay. (although play.com is starting to remove some of their import item listings) Amazon UK is normaly the cheapest, looking at the prices for those movie boxsets on amazon UK today i wish i...

Re: The first time that you watched the Japanese version?

I know it’s not 'watch' but the Pal version of Budokai 1 had the Japanese voice overs. and that grew on me so much that when I imported the orange bricks i tested out the Japanese audio and have not regretted it since. (Although I do watch the dub at points due to nostalgia)

Rory did you order from moviemars? could you tell me if there is problems with your order.
I intentionally didn’t order from them here because they cancelled my order two times previously because their listings of box fours being stock errors.

Re: FUNimation's Dragon Boxes have indeed been discontinued

I’m really confused has Funimation put out another batch of box four considering the price cuts on multiple online retailers. just saw a listing yesterday for it on amazon uk for about £40 and ordered one from a seller in canada which has just dispatched (so not a ghost listing like the previous two...

So glad this is finally happening. Thinking of a way in which I can support this despite owning three different versions of the series including the orange bricks.

Re: DragonBall Z Abridged

One of the things that got me hooked when the first episode came out was the fact Piccolo sounded just like Sabat, or I should say Lanipator. I also notice his Vegeta voice is starting to differentiate with Sabat's Vegeta a little bit. yeah, I loved the fact that certain characters were similar to ...

Dependant on my mood I will watch I will watch the dub, but it’s come to that annoying point when I do watch the dub I need the Steve Simons subtitles which makes the dub seem worse.
