Re: FUNimation to put DBZ on Blu-Ray

As of now, I still have the first two orange bricks that I haven't managed to get rid of, yet, and they're easily the ugliest things on the shelf. Do what I did when I got the Dragon Boxes: Take the Orange Bricks and put them in the DVD cabinet. Or if you don't have one... hide them in a closet or ...

Re: Why Mr. Steve Simmons left Japanese honorifics?

Same here. The point being is that I agree that anything translated from another country should be translated as smoothly as possible. Some will agree, some won't, and that's okay because everyone is entitled to their own opinions. :) But like you, this documentary really changed my outlook with fan...

Re: Why Mr. Steve Simmons left Japanese honorifics?

In my personal opinion if a translator is going to subtitle a show in any language, I would want them to translate professionally. It is the goal of the translator to make the viewer understand what's going on in their language. So in the case with Dragon Ball: Kaio-sama > Lord Kaio, Kami-sama > God...

Re: Anyone else think he looks like he has Saiyan Armor on?

Is that Juventud or Psychosis? I stated above that it was Jushin Liger. His persona is based on an anime of the same name. He wrestled for many different promotions around the world, and is currently wrestling in New Japan Pro Wrestling. Wrestler: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jushin_Liger The anime...

Re: FUNimation to put DBZ on Blu-Ray

I'm digging yours a lot better, not the font, but the choice of not using Orange. My idea was to keep it as original to FUNi's as possible while making few edits. Who knows, maybe the art and box design will change. You can't get rid of the blue Blu-Ray ribbon at the top, but we'll see what happens.

Re: FUNimation to put DBZ on Blu-Ray

Alright, some simple things were changed. No overhauling done. http://img194.imageshack.us/img194/3152/dragonballredesign.jpg I took out out the quote, and the "Doragon Boru Zetto", and removed the original Dragon Ball Z logo with one that didn't have the excess black shadow. Nothing too m...

Re: FUNimation to put DBZ on Blu-Ray

It's not bad like some people make it out to be. Yes it has a hint of similarity to the Orange Bricks, but I'm digging the art. But I do agree with everyone else with getting rid of the huge Goku dubbed quote and "Doragon Boru Zetto" and then we have a great looking box art. Let me see if ...

Re: FUNimation to put DBZ on Blu-Ray

I rather FUNI acquire the rights to the rest of the Dragon Boxes for DB, GT, and the other movies/specials (if possible), than a re-hash of Z. Those 're-hash' releases of Z are what the counterbalance is to 'risky' releases. Which DBoxes for DB and GT likely are. That's the idea I'm getting with th...

Re: FUNimation to put DBZ on Blu-Ray

From what I know, they did a new HD transfer of FLCL because the Japanese HD masters were supposedly done horribly. I bought the FLCL Blu-Ray, and I have to say that the transfer was quite good, if not better than expected. The quality was clear and crisp in my view. They did a different HD transfe...

Does anyone have the other Funimation blu-rays like some of the Z movies, D Grey man, or that Vampire Dance show they've been talking about? If so, think what were done on them might be the same for Z? From what I know, they did a new HD transfer of FLCL because the Japanese HD masters were suppose...

Alright, I updated the first post with only one known confirmation: Footage will be 4:3 full frame. That's a start for FUNimation, a very good start. You should also update that the Blu-Rays will not be using the Season Set film stock, it will be a a new transfer, and that the masters appear to be ...
