Re: Dragon Ball and Centrism disguised as "A Desire for works to stop being political"

What exactly is your proposed topic (beyond what little we can glean from the thread title?) What do you have to say about it yourself? What context can you share about it? Why is it important to you? To be honest this was made because an anti vaxxer derailed a thread I made and I just got tired of...

Re: DBZ's TV Ratings reign is over.

On second thought I think the ratings tanked NOT due to Kai but Naruto reaching a REALLY BORING final stretch of episodes.

Dragon Ball and Centrism disguised as "A Desire for works to stop being political"

Sorry for once again breaking my promise to not make more than one thread per month but unlike my infamous "Dragon Ball and racism" this one has an actual point to it since SO GOSH DARN many mistake (or pretend) a work is only political when its a message ONESELF doesnt like. And so many t...

I agree with the talk about presented here and ITS ABOUT TIME someone said it... But this was not a thread intended for this purpose.

Re: Your watching experience on Toonami

The YTV airings are quite unique, not only were they the only channel outside of Europe to air the Westwood and Blue Water dubs but for episodes 53-167 of Dragon Ball Z, when the Funimation inhouse cast was still being heard on Canadian TV you got a separate cut of that dub than what Toonami US got...

Re: Your watching experience on Toonami

As a Canadian fan we of course didn't have Toonami as DBZ aired on YTZ and the end product was a mishmash of the Saban sub, the original funimation dub and finally the westwood dub from somewhere in the middle of the Cell Games onward. Having said that we were still exposed to "toonamiisms&quo...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

I think Toei and Fuji TV allow One Piece to have blood because all attempts at marketing it for kids in the west flopped. Super is made with international kids channels in mind. Dragon Ball has a major kid audience in the west,even if its massively succesful with Adults.

Re: Akira Toriyama Passes Away.

He was there before anyone else. He was there before Toei Animation, Masako Nozawa, Hiromi Tsuru and Joji Yanami. He was there before Funimation, Ron Wasserman, Bruce Faulconer,Ocean, Scott Mcneil.

And now he isnt anymore.

Re: Dragon Ball Super is FINALLY being streamed.

I... think it would help clarify that this is about the English dub specifically, since the original Japanese version has been up and streaming since the simulcast began back in 2016 . (And this same English dub was previously available on FUNimation's own streaming service, which has since been sh...

Re: Actual Celebrities doing dubbing on Dragon Ball (Star Talents)

I was under the impression that anyone (i.e. Hellspawn28) who criticizes anyone for questioning the COVID vaccines (i.e. Reuben Langdon) loves Bill Gates, and listens to everything he says. Yes. You got us. We are the evil scum that thinks Bill Gates can absolutely do no wrong and is only second to...

Re: Did Trunks' maternal grandparents (Bulma's parents) die in EOZ?

Never noticed this before, so there are no scenes of Bra and her grandparents? aside of DBS that is. In GT, Trunks is president, Dr. Briefs is at least retired. If GT happens 10 years after EoZ, then Briefs is definitely dead, but it's 5... so he could still be alive. The MCs are in their 50s and 6...

Re: Your watching experience on Toonami

Toonami didn't shape my personal fandom in any way, but it certainly shaped the general fandom at the time, and it was impossible to ignore its reach and impact. As a quick recap, I got into the series with the second DBZ episode in syndication, so we're talking late September 1996 here. I started ...

Much like AB VIdeo, the channel that airs DBZ Kai is a proud licensee for Toei.

I think MeTV could still pull it off and they are going to do an animation channel, but cable is dead.

Re: AB Video to release original Dragon Ball on Blu-Ray

I forgot to give DBI context, but that's the Toei Animation Europe website on OG Dragon Ball. Which confirms they are a loud and proud licensee and that Toei loves working with them.

You guys can see by yourselves.
