https://i.imgur.com/FdJlgK2.png Yo! Welcome to week 420 of the first DBZ rewatch of the decade. We're doing five episodes a week, and we'll be watching every single episode of DragonballZ and DragonballSuper. All 284 episodes. Plus the movies. We also decided to add the spinoffs (except the first D...

I know that at least once the French dub of GT broadcast with a full instrumental version of the Japanese TV-size recording of Dan Dan, so weirdness with the OP sounds pretty normal for the French dub as far as I'm aware.

A few things that came up that don't really fit as trivia, but are worth noting: KBABZ is fairly sure VegettoEX once said in a podcast that Minoru Maeda animated the final shot of GT episode 64, but we couldn't find the source of this. If anyone knows where that is, please do let us know. There's a ...

That seems less of a continuity problem and more of the GT special is supposed to occur in the main tv series timeline. Mystical Adventure does not. Sure, but it becomes a continuity problem if you buy into the concept KBABZ was trying to deliver here. (And personally, I think it's a rather fun tho...

So, I was looking up information on some Super episodes the other day to check if Naoki Tatsuta continued to voice Kaio and the Narrator for all episodes of Super from 12 onwards. The fastest way to navigate several episodes at a time is to just change the URL in the address bar, and I was quite sur...

While we're on our 5,788,989th Can Dragon Ball work in live action thread?!?!?!?!?!?! elsewhere I just want to reiterate that if Hollywood were to make a live action Dragon Ball film Path to Ultimate Power is basically a perfect blueprint. Just excise Hachan entirely (I suggest inserting Gyumao and...

Kunzait to the rescue! :) I feel very strongly about this, and it's always frustrated me that people insist it just wouldn't work in live action, but I don't have the patience to argue my side on this at the moment beyond the short posts I've done so far here. Glad to see Kunzait say everything I wa...

https://i.imgur.com/sbdWpTQ.png Hello, ladies, gentlemen, and everyone between and beyond, and welcome to week 115 of the first Dragon Ball rewatch of the decade. We watched five episodes a week, and we watched every single episode of Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, and Dragon Ball GT. All 508 episodes...

It feels like people were programmed to think a certain way on this specific topic after Evolution, it's so common to hear the exact words "DB doesn't translate well in live action". Yes it does. Any animated franchise does with effort. It's a martial arts fantasy manga, nothing about it ...

I've been saying for a long time that there's no reason the right director couldn't do a good Dragon Ball movie. But it seems a lot of folks are still bitter about Evolution.

Ocean had translated scripts for anime previously so it makes sense that they'd have done the heavy lifting in that department. The main difference in Ocean's adaptation was if Barry Watson was involved or not. If he was (like with the Saban/Funi and in-house dubs) it would lean into heavy re-versi...

It's also worth noting the credits of the original uncut movie trilogy list Pioneer as producers, which implies that they had some hand in the creative process, and by all accounts they did plan on doing a full uncut dub for the series with the Vancouver cast. Had the DBZ dub continued in the exact...

Sabat discussed this in his interview with Geekdom six years ago. Regarding the translations - they had Japanese translations directly from Toei, but the quality of the translations just weren't very good, so they had new translations done in Texas, but they didn't have great translators on hand unt...

How does the Cell Games not make sense logically? So, Cell decides to hold a tournament rather than just kill everyone. Why? Well, that's his character at this point; he's a showman, he wants spectacle, he wants the whole world to know that he's won and they've lost and they're doomed. Okay... so w...

though granted that isn't a Super high bar to clear. I see what you did there :lol: :lol: I hoped someone would. :D Overall, it's weird and honestly can feel like an asspull, it's one of those story moments that's carried more by the emotion of it, and/or sense of wonder, than logic, because logica...

But you know, now that Funimation is no more an Crunchyroll is large and in charge, I'm sure they'll fire everyone from Funimation and make the perfect release complete with the Blue Water and Westwood dubs! Dare to dream, huh? People need to email/tweet Crunchyroll to make sure they know all the C...

I’m pretty sure the idea in episode 63 is that Goku is indeed killed by Yi Xi Long, but that through some sort of divine intervention from Shenlong, Goku’s spirit is able to live on long enough to destroy him for good. The final episode pretty heavily leans towards this interpretation, without stat...

The Blue Water dub of Dragon Ball episode 71, at least the first half is still lost. I've heard mumblings about fans who claim to have a recording, but I have not heard about it circulating. I do hope it will be found and shared soon so we can have the complete collection of Canadian dubs for proje...

The subs in the Ocean version are CLOSE to the Funi scripts, it seems Westwood used the scripts and sanitized them up a bit for kids, toned down references of killing and death, replaced some words here and there The sanitisation is actually 99% from their scripts being based on Funi's TV edit, rat...
