Was the Budokai Series OST Inspired by Bruce Falconer?

Ever since I was a kid, I thought Falconer was responsible for the soundtrack because of how similar it sounded. Growing up I found this wasn't the case, but is there any traces linking the two OSTs?

Do you really blame them? That was one of the first Black Goku / Goku Black we've ever had.

Dragon Ball is more like the Spider Man of anime.

It did, actually. The dub was pretty good, too.

Oh, wait. You meant that Saint Seiya.

Re: How do you feel about this Gohan/Yamcha look similar fad

I don't know how I feel about everyone using this "So what, Toriyama takes designs from his other stuff too" cape that seems to be popular in this thread.

The Gohan <-> Yamcha thing has always been very jarring for me, personally.

Re: Do the Chinese Editions of DB Convey the Japanese Nuance

Not at all. No offence to Chinese/Mandarin fans here (even BruceLee collector from Youtube), but their voices & acting would give Speedy Dub a run for their money Absolute no effort was made to grasp the characterization of Goku, Cell, Majin Boo anyone Without possible exception of Gohan & ...

Do the Chinese Editions of DB Convey the Japanese Nuances?

Basically, do the Chinese adaptions convey things like Goku's faux-hick nature, Freeza's faux-politeness and mannerisms, etc.?

It's noteworthy how memorable a setting Namek was that Toriyama based that gag comic there.

Re: Super's manga by Toyotarō

It's annoys me when they said that the Yellow Bear is a copy of Buu. Other then being fat, they are likely have nothing in common with each other. Monster Buyon and Buu are both pink and fat too. No one calls Buu a copy of him. Seriously, this. I don't see how everyone just started calling him a Bo...

Re: What was the first piece of content you saw of GT?

First EVER piece of GT I saw was in my dreams. No joke When DBZ ended, I was 12. A show which was my heart, life, soul, H20, O2 came to an end without me even realizing it was the final episode (Goku flyin with a random kid). I tuned into Channel to watch the following week. The telecasted fuckin D...

Re: What was the first piece of content you saw of GT?

A neighbor used to print out Dragon Ball GT pictures, so a lot of Super Saiyan 4 Goku pics. Then I remember seeing a bootleg GT VHS set at one of those DVD stands you see in the mall. I think this they had the episodes where Goku had just become a SSJ4. Wow, SSJ4 was a huge marketing thing for GT, h...

Re: 20th Anniversary of Dragon Ball GT

Add two things: 1. Re-animate the series from scratch, but unlikely. 2. The series already recycled some stories from DB/DBZ but basically a rehash from the Freeza arc (Bebi), Cell arc (Super #17); and Buu arc (Evil Dragons). I don't get why they did this since GT ain't an original story. The reaso...

Re: Why is Piccolo Considerd "The Black Guy"?

Is this really a thing? I don't think I've ever encountered it before. No, trust me, it is. Among a lot of other fellow black fans of the show, there's been a longstanding joke that Piccolo has always been the black guy of DBZ. I don't even know when we "realized" this to even make it a t...

Re: Does anyone feel like they "grew up" along with Gohan?

I imagine Japanese fans felt this way about Goku, but for dub fans or anyone who started watching DBZ before Dragonball, did you feel this way? Gohan was only 4 years old when DBZ started, and I imagine most of us were young kids when we first watched DBZ too. As Gohan was aging throughout the seri...
