Re: Cheesiest scene in Dragon Ball

Sorry to say, but the FUNimation Dub is filled with cringe-worthy cheesy moments. The one that springs to moment first is Ginyu screaming in his drill sergeant voice to the Z-Senshi that they'll need a change of underpants, or something like that. That aside, Goku's death by Seru seemed rather chee...

Re: Disproving the 120 number

Yes, but obviously x20 Kaioken is more stressful than x10. Look how x3 and x4 destroyed Goku's body when he used it against Vegeta, yet x2 didn't have nearly as much of an impact on his body. But of course, with training he was able to go to the next level. Imagine if Saiyan Saga Goku tried a x10 Ka...

Re: Disproving the 120 number

Well, how much energy does Kaioken x10 drain? It couldn't be very much if he was using it in instantaneous bursts. Especially if we consider the possibility of him using a lesser multiplier (x4, x5, x6, etc.) which would be less stressful on Goku's body. Remember, Piccolo stated that both were holdi...

Re: Sabat vs Drummond

Drummond was very good in the first 53 episodes. But when he returned, I don't know what happened. His voice did not suit the character anymore. Maybe it was the years listening to Sabat, but maybe it was because Vegeta was no longer the villain so Drummond's voice didn't completely fit like it used...

Re: Moments FUNimation's English Dub Did Better?

The monologue when Vegeta goes into a flashback and finally admits Goku is superior. The scene was a little awkward in Japanese when it is just flashing to different scenes without anyone speaking.

Re: Disproving the 120 number

He caught a glimpse of that hidden power in the Rosat, as was stated. Right. The others knew of Kaioken's existence and have even seen it in action. They knew Goku had it up his sleeve. Whether they considered it when Goku arrived is uncertain however. I know it may be a stretch, but worth consider...

Re: Disproving the 120 number

Well in comparison, During the Cell Games, Goku knew that Gohan had a power deep within him to defeat Cell without seeing Gohan transform into a SSJ2.

Maybe they sensed the locked power without Goku unleashing it yet. They were aware of Kaioken so they could at least imagine his power with it.

Re: Disproving the 120 number

There wouldn't be a problem with this, except the series goes on and Vegeta becomes a Super Saiyan with a base of over 1,000,000 and is just about equal to SS Goku. Isn't SSJ Vegeta superior to SSJ Goku when the androids arrive? Also, is it a possibility that the others sense Goku's power that is d...

Re: Disproving the 120 number

I don't remember his exact quote(s) and I don't have the Freeza fight volumes with me, but I don't think he mentions how much power he's using at the start. He just says he's "warming up", I believe. But Goku doesn't have any aura which indicates he isn't using the Kaio-ken, so for Freeza...

Re: Disproving the 120 number

Because Freeza was toying with him the whole time. Right, that's what I was implying. Freeza was only using like 3% of his power or whatever before he bumped it up to 50%, which is why Goku only needed the basic Kaio-ken twice (I think it was twice) beforehand. Once Freeza went 50%, Goku was being ...

Re: Disproving the 120 number

Because Goku can go toe-to-toe with Freeza before even using a basic Kaio-ken. But the thing is, if Goku is 3,000,000 and Freeza is 40,000,000. How could he go toe-to-toe with Freeza when he dwarfs Goku in power. The comparison works the same when it is 300,000 vs. 4,000,000 (mistranslation). Goku ...

Re: Disproving the 120 number

Yes, he is when he should be stronger than Vegeta and Piccolo, which are both over one million. Goku is stronger... with Kaioken. :D But seriously, I do understand how that can poke a hole in the theory. They were all amazed at his strength before he used Kaioken. Unless, they could feel that unuse...

Re: Disproving the 120 number

The power levels I saw for Goku and Freeza in the past were something like this: Goku: 300,000 Kaioken x10: 3,000,000 Kaioken x20: 6,000,000 Super Saiyan (x50) Goku: 15,000,000 Freeza Form 1: 530,000 Freeza Form 2: 1,000,000 (about x2 his first form) Freeza Form 3: 3,000,000 (x3 his second form) Fre...

Re: Disproving the 120 number

I had thought for years that Freeza was 12,000,000. I still think the 120,000,000 figure seems a tad ridiculous. The increase appears to be way too large. Especially when it is compared to previous transformations. 530,000 (Form 1) to 1,000,000 (Form 2) to ??? (Form 3) to 40,000,000-120,000,000 (For...

I have to agree with Cipher. What is exactly making him a troll? He is completely on-topic in the threads he is posting in. Just because he is expressing an opinion that is a little rare around here doesn't make him a troll. I can't say I completely agree with him. I prefer Chris Ayres' interpretati...

Re: How Would You Improve GT? 2.0

A) Delaying the SSJ4's arrival. This form made every other character (besides Goku) irrelevant at such an early point of the series. B) More SSJ3 Goku and Gotenks. More entertaining fights and helps the anticipation of the SSJ4 when SSJ3 becomes truly obsolete. C) FPSSJ2 for Vegeta. Have Vegeta atta...

Re: How to edit the audio on Kai to whatever you like

I would love to learn how to do this. I was thinking about replacing the Z dub's "I am" speech with Kai dub's speech on Z video (Dbox footage). I thought it'd be too difficult. Particularly, I wanted to mux the Kai dialogue with the Bruce Faulconer music and sync it up with the video from ...

It certainly is possible. Ocean definitely has talented VAs. But there are a lot of variables. Will there be a faithful script, replacement music, etc. Right now, there is no way of knowing. But I agree with Enchanted Leg, let us get to square one first and actually see if they're even going to dub ...

Re: Dameon Clarke vs Dale Wilson

I've only seen clips of Wilson's Cell. Its decent, but doesn't fit the character entirely well. Clarke's voice suits the character very well. His acting was a little inconsistent at first when he became Perfect. However, he gradually improved during the Super Vegeta and Trunks fights. I'm wondering ...
