Re: FUNimation dub of Kai vs full/original DBZ accuracy

Everyone has to remember that the script they were using for the show is ancient. They were using the Ocean Dub script for the early episode if I remember correctly, thus the reason of "Over 9000" being in both English dubs before it was popular (Instead of Over 8000). I really think Funi...

Re: Kai Episode 47 (7 March 2010)

I still don't get why there's so much flack over "no insert song." I'm not even saying it was the greatest thing ever, but what inherently makes a vocal song better than background music? I know a lot of people were hoping for Super Dragon Soul, but for some it sounds like any song with l...

Re: U.S.'s Nicktoons TV Adds Dragon Ball Z Kai in May

My expectation was always that they'd get it for multiple reasons, biggest of which is that CN doesn't like airing externally owned series anymore. But that's not true. Cartoon Network has had no problems with importing cartoons from Cananda, which are owned by Teletoon. What's crazy, is that DBZ K...

Re: What's your most recent Dragonball purchase?

Dunno, still not convinced. Mine's not as big as those figures. Mine might be a repackaged, smaller version since it has the copyright logo on the figure. Not as big? the HSCFs are 4-5 inches tall. And of all the variants of the figures released, (Super Saiyan, transparent, Crane-game) I have yet t...

Re: What are some weird assumptions that you've made?

During the original Funimation airing when I was 10. My younger sister and I used to think that Androids #17 and #18 were 17 and 18 years old respectively, and maybe the same for #16, can't remember. #19 and #20 were just different so I don't think their numbers reflected their ages. Dude, you reme...

Re: Dragonball Kai dub?

I think he took the voice clip from the German dub of this scene and lowered the pitch and removed the "t- t " at the end. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v55t5jnhz5s Wasn't this the infamous "OH SHIT" clip? I thought people made a big deal out of it because no other dub did this....

Oh man, I love it if Funianimation re-dubbed the intro to DBKai with a "Rock the Dragon" Remix. Every fan would be so fucking pissed but I'll be the only one singing "Dragon, Dragon, Rock the Dragon. Dragon Ball KAAAAAAAAAAIIIIII YAAAAA ! " Now for some reason I want to set the ...

Re: FUNimation Announces "Kai" License ("DBZ Kai")

That's where I disagree. To me it's the same show. Nothing has changed, the plot is still the same, the characters are still the hero's. The actions are still the same. The video is uncut. They still do the exact same thing. I agree the script is not always accurate, but not to a degree that the ac...

Re: FUNimation Announces "Kai" License ("DBZ Kai")

That's dumb. All they'd have to do is just emphasize the 'S' sound instead of a 'Z' sound. "JheeSe." That's how I wish they'd done it, honestly. Tora -> "Toma" Selypa -> "F a sha" Totepo -> "Sugesh" Panbkin -> "Boros," or something. I guess "Su...

Re: FUNimation Announces "Kai" License ("DBZ Kai")

I don't think they gave two shits about puns. Considering the horribly-mangled FUNi names for folks like the Ginyu Force and Bardock's crew... No, I'd wager they didn't. Well, I know that they intentionally changed "Jheeze" to "Jeice" to sound like "juice", even though...

Even if the pun is more or less lost, "Krillin" still works as his name. It's all still there. I think they changed the pun from "kuri" (chestnut) -commenting that he's bald, to "krill" (animals similar to shrimps) -reflecting that he's short. The "lin" from ...
