Kanzenshuu

[...] and sound effects (and anything not within dialog boxes) in the original Japanese script, with notes added in the margin if needed.
Perhaps a good medium would be to add the sound effects in English in small text near the actual kana (as is popular in some scanlation projects; I'm not sure ...

I would love to see an all new English translation in a kanzenban style release.

To be perfect for me it would need to have; full colour pages with all the extras (ask me anything etc.) included and sound effects (and anything not within dialog boxes) in the original Japanese script, with notes ...

For me it really has to be the EU Budokai 2 cover. Really loved the art on that one.

I would love the next Dragonball 3DS game to be a sequel to Advance Adventure. Imagine seeing stunning 3D visuals in the background while running through a platformer/beat 'em up hybrid game.

I would buy a game like that on release day.

My personal answer to the opening question is that (from my own experience) it's a lot easier to get a non fan playing Budokai 3 or Infinite World than the Sparking! games. I always had great fights with one of my friends who absolutely didn't get Dragonball in any shape or form.

Except Budokai 3 ...

I just couldn't help it... Mike, it's though as in flow...

Didn't you invent the rules?

[edit] Just to be on topic as well as a snide remark , I've always pronounced it E X in English, just as you would with two consecutive capital letters, full stops (periods) or not.

I'm game for a general meet-up too.

If we get enough people, we should make this happen!

Budokai 1 for the PS2.

Then I went and got all the VIZ manga, and I still haven't seen most of the series, though through Kai I will.

Just thought I'd mention, the 'Download the show now' link on the home page directs to a download link for episode #183.

I copied mine from the manga.

Laughed out loud in the cinema when I heard that.

I don't know if this belongs here, but I recorded a track and I had Dragonball/the Budokai games in mind when I put it together.

This guy has to be a troll folks.

No feeding!

Yeah, mine has arrived from Play and I live in Northern Ireland, which usually has a bit of a delay compared to England/Scotland/Wales.

I live in Northern Ireland and ordered from Play.com, mine arrived yesterday.

Sop you should be able to find it somewhere.

Still have to get round to playing it though.

Well, my first two volumes of the DBZ manga were no. 12 and no. 18 so....



Yeah, the language on he inside does sound very Shakespearean.

OK. On the back cover illustration of this edition, there's a full colour picture of Piccolo towering over Goku after he has become gigantic.

The speech bubble to the right of the illustration reads: "Gya ha ha! Don't you think you should ask your friends for help?"

The speech bubble to the left ...

Touché!

But I don't think it really captures the scene as well as brangeta's pic did!

Any 4-year old who can recreate brangeta's final pic deserves the utmost praise!

As far as I can see (from the VIZ-translated manga), a Yamcha/Kuririn potara fusion wouldn't be significantly 'less powerful' than from a 'rival' fusion, ratio wise.
