Re: Dubs you've been actively following

They made up for having a better dance around death by being more ridiculous in censorship than the Saban era dub in every other aspect. Goku can't have a halo over his head, it's a ball of light Vegeta and Nappa can't even eat the cricket aliens of the planet they just conquered they have to eat.....

Re: What DB movie would you show a 10 year old who's seen OG DB twice?

I think your lil un loves Dragon Ball so much she wont ever really mind any movie you show her. What you should be doing is curate the experience and remember to skip any scary/too violent/sexual stuff.

Re: Dragon Ball and Centrism disguised as "A Desire for works to stop being political"

Art and politics go together like peanut butter and jelly. Anyone who has study art history (like myself) would know this. A lot of people only see on what is on the surface level and not anything else. Like these examples https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/419/592/211.png https://i.k...

Re: Dragon Ball and Centrism disguised as "A Desire for works to stop being political"

Meanwhile, by contrast, Japan has a considerable degree of mutual animosity with China and Korea... and yet you don't see them making jabs about those places all the time whenever they or their cultures are depicted in most anime/manga properties (including the one that this forum is built around, ...

Re: Dragon Ball and Centrism disguised as "A Desire for works to stop being political"

What exactly is your proposed topic (beyond what little we can glean from the thread title?) What do you have to say about it yourself? What context can you share about it? Why is it important to you? To be honest this was made because an anti vaxxer derailed a thread I made and I just got tired of...

Re: DBZ's TV Ratings reign is over.

On second thought I think the ratings tanked NOT due to Kai but Naruto reaching a REALLY BORING final stretch of episodes.

Sorry for once again breaking my promise to not make more than one thread per month but unlike my infamous "Dragon Ball and racism" this one has an actual point to it since SO GOSH DARN many mistake (or pretend) a work is only political when its a message ONESELF doesnt like. And so many t...

I agree with the talk about presented here and ITS ABOUT TIME someone said it... But this was not a thread intended for this purpose.

Re: Your watching experience on Toonami

The YTV airings are quite unique, not only were they the only channel outside of Europe to air the Westwood and Blue Water dubs but for episodes 53-167 of Dragon Ball Z, when the Funimation inhouse cast was still being heard on Canadian TV you got a separate cut of that dub than what Toonami US got...

Re: Your watching experience on Toonami

As a Canadian fan we of course didn't have Toonami as DBZ aired on YTZ and the end product was a mishmash of the Saban sub, the original funimation dub and finally the westwood dub from somewhere in the middle of the Cell Games onward. Having said that we were still exposed to "toonamiisms&quo...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

I think Toei and Fuji TV allow One Piece to have blood because all attempts at marketing it for kids in the west flopped. Super is made with international kids channels in mind. Dragon Ball has a major kid audience in the west,even if its massively succesful with Adults.

Re: Akira Toriyama Passes Away.

He was there before anyone else. He was there before Toei Animation, Masako Nozawa, Hiromi Tsuru and Joji Yanami. He was there before Funimation, Ron Wasserman, Bruce Faulconer,Ocean, Scott Mcneil.

And now he isnt anymore.

Re: Dragon Ball Super is FINALLY being streamed.

I... think it would help clarify that this is about the English dub specifically, since the original Japanese version has been up and streaming since the simulcast began back in 2016 . (And this same English dub was previously available on FUNimation's own streaming service, which has since been sh...
