Re: Funimations 30th anniversary collectible home video release

Disregarding fidelity and quality of the actual master, because that was obviously messy from the start, lets discuss packaging for a moment. Who thinks its a good idea to place blu-ray discs in a paper sleeve? This has caused many discs to come with scratches. While that will probably not effect th...

Re: Official On-Going Dragon Ball Super Movie Thread: "Broly"

I was able to see the movie yesterday and wow, what an experience. This is the best movie in the franchise on multiple levels. As someone who hated everything about the previous iteration of Broly, this rewrite really does the character justice and actually establishes a character that I care about....

Re: What about Super disservice with characters like Goten, Trunks and Yamcha?

I hated that the show ended without even trying to make them look a bit older as the time had passed, I mean Super ended on age 780, EoZ is on 784, so we should really expect that in just four years they grew up from that: [spoiler] https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DB9ODsaXgAABNO2.jpg [/spoiler] To that...

Re: Now that Super is finished, what is the overall consensus of the series?

While the series certainly had it's issues, Super did a nice job of expanding the Dragon Ball universe as a whole. The first 2 arcs were kind of a waste and featured some of the worst animation and direction I've witnessed in the franchise. Those 2 arcs certainly rank down in the GT realm of the fra...

Re: Super Episode 131 (25 March 2018)

A very fun ending to the series for sure. While the overall series itself was marred at times, it still introduced some amazing concepts throughout and expanded the Dragon Ball universe in a meaningful way. It will be interesting to see how the movie progresses these concepts further.

Re: What version did you start off with?

I started off with the Funi dub that aired on Toonami back in 2000. I got hooked and watched all of Z on Toonami when it aired. I watched bits and pieces of the original Dragon Ball when it started airing on Toonami, but honestly found it boring at the time. Funny how age changes things, because now...

Re: Dragonball Z was not that good in the beginning..

The arc itself for me had the best filler in the series and showed some great character development. The fights were also not horribly stretched out. It's the only arc in Z that I watch without skipping episodes.

Besides the things already mentioned, the Proovy Gohan/Goku Kamehameha diorama catches a pretty large sum.

Re: Is this Dragon Ball Figure a bootleg?

I don't see anything in the original OP such as a link or photo... However the SS Vegeta S.H. Figuarts is HEAVILY bootlegged by a Chinese company named Datong. Bootleg boxes have Chinese(?) text on the front. An official box would look like this: http://www.animetoynews.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/0...

Re: Replacement Score Existence

As far as I'm aware, Funi has only done replacement scores for DBZ and DBGT. That would mean they haven't done this since they finished the Z Movies in 2006. The "other anime" I was referring to are the ones that came across the paths of 4Kids or a similar group, like the one in this thre...

Re: Did you come around to liking Mr. Satan?

I absolutely hated him at first. Mainly because he stole Gohan's credit for defeating Cell. However I grew to like him during the Buu arc and as it stands now, he's one of my favorite characters. I like the comedic aspect he adds to the mix, along with the importance he's serves in the story, both i...

I'm a big fan them not placing gold versions in this release. Yeah, I kind of wish they hadn't done that in the capsule figure set that I've got. Two of the figures are gold, when really I'd rather they just be colored the right colors of the characters. :/ Anyway, after some hassle with Wal-mart a...

The soundtrack alone is enough to make me run as far away from this as possible. There's just no way I can justify supporting this type of release. :?

Re: Official On-Going DBZ 2015 Movie Thread

I don't understand why Toriyama doesn't give one of his favorite characters, Piccolo, a bigger role. He isn't strong enough . You shouldn't have to make a character "physically stronger" to give them a bigger role. You simply have to write them in a role that plays on their strengths. Lac...
