If there's one cartoon I want to take EVA Unit O1 to and obliterate all trace of it, it's that damn Inspector Gadget! :shock: Dare I say, "Wowzers?" How about Rocko's Modern Life? You can't go wrong with that show. Zackarotto: Spongebob can be funny sometimes, but I always thought Invader...

Man, I remember Samurai Pizza Cats! That show was great. Apparently one anime company owns the rights to the show but for whatever reason can't release it on DVD. Speaking of old shows, did anyone else ever watch Inspector Gadget when they were little? Or how about Count Duckula? Nickeloden used to ...

tablet the eunuch:
Huh...I always thought they did the dubbing themselves. Guess I didn't pay much attention to the credits...

Anyway, was that "dickhead" line in the Japanese version? I'm a little curious about that myself.

Heh...beats the hell out of me. Actually I just thought of something. If hell is HFIL in the dub, and 666 is the mark of the beast...would it be 999 in the dub?

I really need to go to bed...

Yeah, Manga does some bad dubbing. I'll never forget one line from the film that always made me laugh because of it's delivery: "Talk? And just what exactly are you going to talk about? You don't even know your own name you STUPID DICKHEAD!" :roll: I've also heard that some of the subtitle...

I've used the term "gateway drug" to describe Dragonball a few times. I can say without hesitation that it's the truth. After watching it for a few weeks, I wanted to know all about Japanese animation. Nowadays, I consider myself to be a casual anime fan; if something peaks my interest I'l...

No bids... Not that I'm going to, seeing as I'm not anywhere near Japan.
Well, then perhaps he could interest you in the four or five star Dragonballs...he has those up for auction, too (that and Kakashi from Naruto's eye). Check his other auctions.

Hoo boy, fond Dragonball memories? Well, here goes... #1- Waking up that fateful Sunday at 6am and seeing a one-armed Piccolo firing his "Special Beam Cannon" at Raditz and Goku. That was the moment I became a fan. #2- Buying Idainaru Dragonball Densetsu for my Sega Saturn, and finally hea...

*phone rings, Scouter goes off*

Me: "A power level of 322..."

Yea, I got a kick out of the Tao Pai Pai episodes. Actually I just get a kick out of Tao Pai Pai himself...when a guy can kill someone with his tounge, you know you don't want to screw around with him. Actually, I think Freeza, Pilaf,and "Ginyu-frog" are patients there too. Heh...I could j...

Anybody else picking up the Cell Games Starter set?

I just pre-ordered it at DeepDiscountDVD.com. For $25 with free shipping, it seems like a good deal. And apparently, the next Cell Games disc is $15 there...$15! Now this is a box set deal I can keep up with (unlike RahXephon...-_-).

Well, discuss. 8)

I believe he is Toriyama's favorite (American Shonen Jump 1 has an interview where he says that). Though he does seem to be a bit absent minded at times, so his favorites could change.

Hola, I'm new here.

Now that that is out of the way, I have to go with my old stand-by: Piccolo. He was really the first character I had seen from the series and was the reason I kept watching. He also has this badass-osity to him. :D
