I'll say what I said in the Patreon Discord, which is if you were like me back in 2019 and the 4:3 + Faulconer + all 291 in one purchase makes sense to you, I'd say go for it. The remaster job is pretty absymal, but I've found it's not a deal breaker for me. I was fine paying $350 for it, so $270 fo...

Ah, Brice Armstrong. If I had too much money and he was still with us, I would be tempted to hire him to narrate my own life.

I was your bog-standard Toonami kid starting with Funi DBZ from '98, with the added twist that I was a literal toddler and was really watching with my parents. My dad was what you could call an earlier American anime fan, with him really latching onto Star Blazers and Robotech back in the 70's and 8...

If I've got this right, this was all to...promote a livestream tied to the home release of Super Hero.
Sounds fun, but nothing too groundbreaking here.

I've said it before on here, and I'll say it again: Dragon Ball is entertainment, and thus it should be a good time. If you're not having a good time, you absolutely should invest your time and energy elsewhere. Life's too short and there's too many cool things out there for any of us to be wasting ...

This thread got me thinking: what if Pearl Jam existed in the Dragon Ball universe?
What Italian food would the characters be served, and what ailments of theirs would be cured?

Funimation are well known in several English speaking countries though, not just the US. Canada, Australia, the UK and Ireland, the Netherlands, South East Asia, and South Africa have all had Funimation's dubs to some extent. I don't think "If you live in one of these five countries you might ...

Funimation are well known in several English speaking countries though, not just the US. Canada, Australia, the UK and Ireland, the Netherlands, South East Asia, and South Africa have all had Funimation's dubs to some extent. And the Funimation brand has been around considerably longer than Crunchy...

It's a fair point to say that... well, the entity "Dragon Ball Super" isn't an exclusive Toriyama work. Some of it starts with him, some of it doesn't, and none of it ends with him. If you want to talk about Toriyama's "touch" and if he still has it, then you really have to star...

Sure, make the distinction. There's some truth to it, but it's not altogether true. Then why rag on dva_raza so much for it? Once again , where are they making the argument about "fundamental" differences? After reading the debate, the excuse "time is valuable" is out of any mea...

But to claim DB and DBZ are two fundamentally different shows which is exactly what was being claimed is erroneous. Again, was it? Where exactly is dva_rasa making this claim? I'm seeing that they're making a distinction between DB and Z, but not that they're fundamentally different. If they made a...

Your point was they were fundamentally different. Was it? I'll I'm seeing from dva_rasa is that they see OG DB as being different enough from Z for them to not be interested. And then you're surprised and confused that they're pissed off at you for exaggerating their position, and I really don't kn...

Total shot in the dark but you wouldn't happen to be in New York City would you? Then again if this were the place I'm thinking of you'd be far more likely to comment on the giant Goku model in the storefront lmao. Nope, I'm clear off in the other side of the country, near Portland. I'm eventually ...

I've got too many other stories to share to let this thread simply fade away, so how about my most recent ones: Throughout my entire life, I think there's been scant few times where I didn't have a DB t-shirt somewhere in my wardrobe. The most recent lapse in me having a DB shirt available ended sev...

Sure, but in that case it's not about the episode count. Those are the episodes that are closest to the look and feel they are used to. While the episode count no doubt makes it seem daunting, it's the worry that the payoff isn't worth the investment in One Piece that keeps me from watching it. I w...

I don't think it's that much of a bigger ask than 300 episodes. Once you cross a certain barrier, I think you on board for it all, so why should 150 more bother anyone? As the old saying goes, "Time flies when you're having fun," which means 300 episodes of something you really enjoy is w...

Yeah, I remember having similar feelings of missing out on the heyday of some of the stuff I was into, notably the 80's era of Transformers. The only DB thing I'm really disappointed in missing the boat on was getting a full set of Funimation's Dragon Boxes when those were reasonably priced. But on ...

But this isn't a matter of taste. This is a matter of people characterizing the original series as 1 thing which is highly inaccurate. Of course taste is subjective. Are we not clear on this point? We're not calling into question anyone's taste for thinking the latter part of the story is better. I...

To everyone who's saying that people's reasons for not watching pre-Z "don't make sense", "aren't reasonable". etc., I'd like you to consider the quote that goes something like "You cannot reason someone out of a position that they didn't reason themselves into." Now, t...
