Kanzenshuu

An interesting tweet summarizing an interview with mangaka Eguchi Hisashi (not to be confused with the Dragon Ball animator) came across my timeline earlier this morning. Former Weekly Shonen Jump editor Kazuhiko Torishima revealed in a recent interview that "Stop!! Hibari-kun!" by Hisash...

To be fair, Japan did make a necrophiliac cannibal rapist into a ""wholesome mascot"", complete with TV Shows, interviews, and pornography with actresses who had no idea of his criminal record. Key difference here is that the victim was herself Japanese, while with the other per...

Be careful that Adult Swim has different schedules, DBI! In South America (Paraguay and Argentina) some of the schedule is different because of the Horario de Proteccion Al Menor (Minor Protection Schedule or Watershed.)

This is a great thread and there is a question I want to make. What Media Rating did the final airing of DBZ in the final years of USA Toonami? As in back when the block died in 2009-ish? TV Y7 FV? I doubt they were PG because I dont think CN was keen on Keeping Roshi's antics, and the show was alre...

I really mightily disagree but there are many Kai recasts people liked better. I dont agree. The closest I have is Bulma in the Boo saga but not that Rocio Garcel was bad but Monica Manjarez take sold the fact Bulma was older now better. And ANY Mr Satan Latin American voice until Kai, NO VOICE of h...

I haven't been as active here in the last few months but since I started dropping back in, I fell under the impression Kanzenshuu had become a dub fan's paradise. I see hardly any sub/dub elitism. Every new topic seems to be about some obscure Peruvian, Yugoslavian, High Elvish dub that two, three ...

Even shows that were legit big hits like Digimon Adventure and OG Yu Gi Oh had terrible viewership . Do you mean original Yu-Gi-Oh on the UK Nickelodeon? I don't recall it airing on any of Nick's channels in the US, I always thought it did well here though. On the US side I can't imagine it did wel...

Actually, they did, Dragon Ball GT flopped so hard that it destroyed any good will the Dragon Ball franchise had on Nicktoons and along with it any other anime. Nicktoons started to hate anime because GT was such a failure. Oh yeah, I remember you saying that. I was thinking more along the lines I'...

Sorry, didn't mean to be such a downer. If a new fan wants to experience the show with no broadcast, what do they go with? I'd probably still say Kai. Don't think even the more iconic branding would convince them to go for Z over Kai, besides internationally its labelled as "Dragon Ball Z Kai&...

It should definitely be uncensored and include all Latin American dubs (OG DB, DBZ. DB GT, AND SUPER) but no Kai.

I'm not trying to be a bitch or anything, but the title of the thread literally says Furuya Tooru, who is not exactly a voice actor in in the English dubbing industry. I was going to say the same, but I didnt want to look like I wanted to erase dub actors with asian names... Because I did it a long...

Both the fandom and the Idolized can be bad. This time it was Furuya, the Idolized who was bad. The fandom can be too, like the fan who murdered that one Anime Fan Song Dub woman he admired.

I'd guess it would be Dragon Ball Kai because the current generation raised on TikTok, Youtube shorts and "influencers" love their instant gratification. Sadly I don't know any stories of someone who did get into the series recently, young or old. Dragon Ball Z is a tough sell between hav...

Forget Syndication, Toonami, forget Nicktoons, forget Toonzai, forget Vortexx. When new fans (It can be both young and old, but people who dont know the series beforehand) want to watch DBZ dubbed, what dub do they go with? Feel free to share your take here. And DO share if you know what a new fan d...

True, I guess then it must be because the Arabic dub NEVER got to the juicier parts of OG DB like the Piccolo Daimao Saga. One thing that is interesting is that the comedic early parts of OG Dragon Ball actually saved the show in Latin America (All the sexual humor got edited out like you said SHIN...

It just occurred to me why OG Dragon Ball would be unpopular in the Middle East. So many reasons specially the sexual humor, without it Dragon Ball is sorta boring (Until about the Red Ribbon arc) and devout Muslims wouldnt like the female nudity. TV censorship was brutal in the first arc and the e...

To contribute something to the original idea of this topic, Dragon Ball in the Arabic world isn't that popular either despite airing a significant amount of episodes (around 1/3rd of the series). I'm going with second-hand info from some of my peers but Dragon Ball Z was also known way before Drago...

Welp, nevermind I was wrong its even worse in full. I do hope this is a thing you grew out of tho. ...You're absolutely free to come over and observe our supposed thriving dub industry for adults, I'll reimburse the travel cost if you can find it. I know this is a double post but IT FINALLY DAWNED ...

...No? Why are you bringing up the dub when this has nothing to do with it?

Welp, nevermind I was wrong its even worse in full. I do hope this is a thing you grew out of tho. ...You're absolutely free to come over and observe our supposed thriving dub industry for adults, I'll reimburse the travel cost if you can find it. Why is it so hard to just say "Sorry, but dubs...
