Re: Do you want a spin-off about Gohan?

I'd be down for that. Frankly, I'd even be OK with spin-offs about Piccolo, Vegeta, or even Kuririn. Not that I don't love Goku--I do--but ever since he Kamehame-yoinked that victory away from Vegeta in Resurrection F , I've always wondered would it be like to focus on one of the other characters go...

Re: Ocean Studios' "Dragon Ball Kai" Dub Turns 12; Still Unreleased

So from what I've been told YTV is to air Mary and the Witch's Flower, which will mark the first time in about a decade the channel has shown any anime. I would urge anyone to reach out to YTV now about airing Ocean Kai, because you never know, they do have a history of airing not just Dragon Ball,...

Re: Will we see a Latin American Kai redub before its streamed?

Also interestingly, it seems that the English audio tracks on HBO Max (as well as Latin America's Warner Channel via SAP), have select episodes with the Yamamoto score; 7 and 55-65 (with episodes 64 and 65 never having been broadcast with Yamamoto in the States). As the music scandal dragged on, I ...

Re: Will we see a Latin American Kai redub before its streamed?

I hear The Final Chapters is to be added when HBO Max gets there. It will be the debut of Funimation's edited dub, which is kinda neat too. Really? I thought the Latino Spanish dub of The Final Chapters was based on FUNimation's uncut dub. I know the pre- Final Chapters stuff was based on the censo...

Re: Will we see a Latin American Kai redub before its streamed?

So after several delays HBO Max finally uploaded Kai to Latino Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese speaking regions of the world starting with the first 54 episodes. Unfortunately for many fans in those regions, it's the existing dub rather than a redub, complete with the Nicktoons censorship. That's ...

Re: Rurouni Kenshin case - Would you stop supporting DB?

Hoooo man, that is... not a scenario I'd ever want to have to deal with, considering how much DB means to me. The Dragon Ball universe will always hold a deep place in my heart no matter what, and nothing Toriyama did would take that away from me. That said, if this horrible hypothetical did happen....

Re: USA got it worst with anime/manga releases?

I can't speak for the manga since I haven't finished reading it and am not that familiar with the various different releases there, but as far as anime releases? Oh gosh, we didn't get the worst release at all -- not even close! For a few reasons. -If one counts the Japanese audio track on the DVDs,...

Re: Why is Kai disliked a lot/ not as popular?

I was amazed at how many fans didn't understand back when Kai was airing that the versions seen on Nicktoons and Toonzai were edited versions. I saw tons of comments to the effect of, "All the blood's gone, now it's for little kiddies!" I convinced a fair number of people to check out Kai ...

Re: Does Sabat do commercials?

Oh sure, most voice actors have done a commercial at some point. Some do them more frequently than others, but most voice actors are taught that their most important demo is their commercial demo since it's one of the more lucrative genres of VO (hell of a lot more lucrative than dubbing, that's for...

Re: Ocean Studios' "Dragon Ball Kai" Dub Turns 12; Still Unreleased

So not Kai-related, but could lead to it as we now have Ocean's newest anime dub Dragon Quest Dai . It's currently only available for UK residents through the BBC iPlayer, but I suggest anyone who can watch it legally do so, it may lead to future anime Ocean dubs. More importantly, as I was told Ke...

Re: Were the fixtation on Earth after Frieza and the dropping of the Humans behind in the dust the franchise's BIG MISTA

That's a superhero story which DB is not. And once Freeza is gone, that should've been it for him and his empire. Honestly, that strikes me as great material for a spinoff. One of the things I wondered later as a kid was just what happened to Freeza's empire in light of his death. I have a hard tim...

Purely and entirely to see what an edited dub of Super would look like. Worth noting Funimation's edited Super dub has aired in the UK and Ireland on Pop. LostTimeLord has documented the various edits , which is really cool. I know Super also aired on kids channels in Australia, South Africa and Pa...

As far as him being a decades-long abuser, it would only be fair if I mentioned that I honestly didn't know about his sex pest behaviors prior to the #KickVic floodgate being opened. I had heard plenty of rumors beforehand of him being a diva and a jerk--and being masterfully skilled and not appear...

These are real people causing real ...
