Except Gero could probably absorb the Kikoho.

Re: Could foreign dub casts be a thing of the past?

I only show excitement for the Horikawa one. And that's because I found it pretty crazy to hear Horikawa's voice speaking English and I much prefer that over every English dub Vegeta voice we've ever gotten. For the record, Horikawa actually does speak fluent English. Horikawa speaking English .

Re: Why Do People Think Goku Wins All the Time?

Ginyu stole his body and left him bleeding and barely able to move. It’s a loss by any metric that doesn’t require death or unconsciousness.

They obviously do, since they used it for their DVD release ages ago.

Re: Colorism in Dragon Ball

I’d be interested if someone had an example of this cultural norm getting flipped on its head, e.g. where the color white was viewed negatively and so too the inverse, or some more nebulous interplay. I know the impression of other colors changes wildly from region to region and people to people, b...

Re: Extremely annoyed by English language credits and episode title cards on DB Super blu-rays.

For what it’s worth, in recent (last few years) FUNimation anime releases, the trend has mostly been “squeeze the dub credits into the first one or two pages and leave the entirety of the rest of the ED for the original staff.” While having the English staff first isn’t ideal, at least they try to g...

Re: Extremely annoyed by English language credits and episode title cards on DB Super blu-rays.

I'm the exact opposite; I prefer for the BDs to have translated credits like the Kai/Super releases do (NOT just crediting the English cast like the old series' US home versions) — the point of the credits is for people to be able to read them and know who worked on the show; if you leave them in Ja...

Pretty sure that’s not Amazon Japan, but FUNimation’s streams. The Amazon Japan streams are widescreen.

Re: Original Dragon Ball anime to be released on Blu Ray in Spain

Selecta Visión aren't exactly known for the amazing quality of their remasters... Their latest DVD release was a ton of awkward filters thrown on top of the Dragon Box masters. So you probably shouldn't get your hopes up too much.

For what it's worth, the Portuguese DVD release spells his name sanely in the subtitles. Even though it's the only thing they actually spelled right...

Re: Why weren't the NEPs of DBGT included on the Green Bricks?

I'm too tired at the moment to check my GT singles, and I've never watched them in English, but I'm willing to bet, assuming the English version contains the previews at all, at the very least, they chopped off the "Next Time on Dragon Ball GT" logo that precedes all previews. They've nev...

Considering the movie only has three female characters total, and they never share any screen time, it doesn't seem that important.

Re: Dragon Ball Movies HD Remaster - Amazon Video/Netflix Japan - Discussion Thread

For most mainstream users, fixing the 4:3 ratio is as easy as clicking stretch to side/window on their tv and quite a lot of people actually do this. Destroying the video by cropping it to satisfy a minority who already has a solution to their problem is unacceptable. Worth noting though that Kai h...

Re: Can I buy Yo! Son Goku and his Friend return DVD?

Ok if I have to download it, does it have good subtitles? Are there multiple versions with varying subtitle quality or just one? I imagine there very well may be fansubs, but at one point Toei streamed it on their site with their own official subs, so there is at least one good sub track for it. Na...
