Re: Criticism
FYI, I never left the forum. I just never see the point in posting here anymore. The English dub can suck balls for all I care. 😂😂😂 If there's constructive criticism I'd like to add, it's the fact that this forum leaves no room for forum members to talk about off-topic subject matter. Stuff other t...

Re: Ideal English Goku Voice?
Not gonna lie, Sean's perfect. It's the voice I grew up with. The way he can go from goofy to Godly is super cool. "Bring it on. Gohan." :lol: You get a REAL feel for the Journey To The West Son Goku. He's silly most of the time, but he can be an intimidating force, too. I honestly never ...

Re: New Dragon Ball Z Blu-Rays From Crunchyroll Coming August 1st
To the fandom's defense, their decision to put it in a fundraising campaign of sorts and the framing of 4:3 being the "premium" option for years (yeah, because their normal OG and GT DVDs were totally in wide-screen) made it practically impossible to defend Funimation during that debacle....

Re: Ideal English Goku Voice?
I agree with Corlett. He has a very natural delivery (sounds like a voice you'd hear in real life) and has the range to play childish/silly/lighthearted. That's all I could ask for, honestly. I can't imagine what an English version of Noxawa would sound like nor do I think I'd like it.

Re: New Z Blu Rays
I just want to say that there is no official product that has the Japanese broadcast audio and I don't foresee that changing. There's a sense that anyone working on Dragon Ball uses the "Eh, good enough" approach. Not true as of last year. France is putting out releases with the Broadcast...

Re: Why exactly is everyone saying that GT has good ideas all the time?
I never took it that Goku is absorbing the Dragon Balls. And as a consequence of overusing the DBs, Goku makes a deal with Shen Long to become a god? I don't think Super contradicting GT is disrespectful. Why would it be? As for a reason to reach the finish line on GT, if you enjoy it, why not fini...

Re: Criticism
*Looks to the left field* Is that where this came from? I always felt like this place was a cut above the rest when it came to discussing Dragon Ball. Not because of name filters or a skew toward the Japanese version--which is totally the site owner's prerogative--but because there was a zero tolera...

Re: Why exactly is everyone saying that GT has good ideas all the time?
Goku isn't devine, he's just dead. That's the point, he's going away because he made a deal with Shen Long. I think that the two things that make Goku seem "devine" by the end of GT are the fact that he seems to absorb the Dragon Balls (which would absolutely make him basically a god) and...

Re: A Dragon Ball Hollywood reboot HAS to be inevitable now
I really don't think Evolution needs a reboot because nobody cares about that movie. It's not like that was Dragon Ball's one true chance to make it mainstream. It was a bad movie and we all just kind of moved on from it.

Re: Love interest are overrated now in dbs.
Well, it's Toei's cartoon, they should be able to break away from Toriyama. Anyway, Vegeta unexpectedly getting a romance was neat. It lets any female fans attracted to him to self-insert! I would personally prefer to see him have a romance with Gokuu, too! It really doesn't open the way for that s...

Re: Love interest are overrated now in dbs.
In the most respectful way possible, I'll just say that I disagree. I don't think that the relationships are the kiss of death for Super. I think that Super is just plagued with ooor writing and quite honestly, I don't think that the main protagonists are all that likeable. Goku was so fun in Dragon...

Re: Was it ever explained away why no one in trunks time in the afterlife help out at all?
But this is why I think the return for a day thing is pretty dumb. See how much drama builds when we don't have dead people just coming back to life whenever they feel like it? As if the drama of death wasn't lost enough because of the Dragon Balls, we have alternative ways to bring someone to life...

Re: Was it ever explained away why no one in trunks time in the afterlife help out at all?
Androids killed Baba in one of the attacks. It honestly falls apart a little, to be honest. I we see that fighters can be brought back for one day as far back as Dragon Ball. I can understand Goku keeping his body and not knowing what is happening on Earth (because he died of natural causes). The re...

Re: What are some overlooked quotes or moments you enjoy?
I do like the filler scenes work the orphan kids or the space nomads. Secretly kind of wished they make a little cameo at some point in the series, but of course, they never have.

Re: Are you sick of Goku?
I'm definitely not sick of Goku and most definitely don't want the series to try to bend itself all out of shape to try to recapture the magic. If the series insists on continuing, I'd rather they'd stick to their simple formula that seems to work than to try to recreate everything. Ideally, I would...

Re: 20 years ago today Dragon Ball GT premiered in the UK and Ireland
No matter what anybody says about the Blue Water dub of GT, at least you didn't get the replacement score that we got in the US. While the main theme was kinda catchy (despite the "rap"), the repetitiveness, the instruments, and the overall dark, depressing feel of that monotnous score mad...
