I believe he means the sentence he quoted from dbboxkaifan. From what Kojiro tells me, they have people who can read English-language feedback.

Re: Want to identify a music cue from the anime? Go here!

So... I've started documenting the currently-running Majin Boo arc of DragonBall Kai. So far, 9 episodes have aired, and I've got full documentation for each one up on my site. A couple of interesting observations: - The recap theme is taken from the prologue that kicks off the extended Battle of Go...

Re: GT's Music Significance On The Series

Does that mean that there are probably some unused tracks or are the tracks heard in the series all he composed? Interesting. I'm sure there's at least some unused material. That calm Dan-Dan arrangement I mentioned earlier? Like I said, that's the one and only time in GT that cue ever gets used......

Re: Why is Toei reanimating Sailor Moon but not DBZ?

Anyway. I like how SM fans gets everything DBZ fans want - an actual remake, uncropped Blurays, a redub, a decent live-action, etc. Let's not forget a massive 10-CD box set containing not only everything from the music score they were able to include, but also complete cue sheets in the liner notes!

Re: GT's Music Significance On The Series

OP & ED aside, GT's BGM pretty much fails. Misfit for the most part actually. While its supposed to sound Heroic (Goku becoming SSJ4 for the 1st time), it sounds nostalgic. When Super 17 beats down Super Saiyan 4 Goku, BGM completly ruins the moment. Instead of heart-thumping BGM's we used to h...

Re: Should they ignore GT?

I have the series and can watch it whenever. As far as I'm concerned Toei can ignore GT all they want.

After they release Akihito Tokunaga's musical score.

I'll go back to dreaming other impossible dreams now.

That part from the 21st Budokai when the announcer says that before the first match begins, we'll have a word from the temple priest - then the priest (an anthropomorphic dog) takes the microphone... and barks. What's even funnier is that I like it better in the FUNi dub, which I almost never prefer...

Re: Kai Episode 104 (11 May 2014)

That cue from Kaioshin's introduction is certainly better on average than what we've been getting... but I'm just going to say it, it still seems to suffer from the same meandering "not-quite-a-melody" problem that plagues so many modern shows. Sure, it's atmospheric, and that's sort of th...

Re: Question for fans of the Japanese soundtrack only please

I kind of hate the new score, then again I'm kind of OK with it. It has a bit of an '80s cartoon flavor to it, which is a plus for me as I grew up with and enjoy that kind of music. On the other hand, Sumitomo really seems to just be phoning it in. There are about three or four cues I can genuinely ...

Guess it's time for me to quit lurking through this thread and actually weigh in with my thoughts on the new score: I was a little depressed when I found out the new Kai BGM would be Sumitomo (though I expected it would turn out that way), as I really hated most of the score from Battle of Gods, and...

To be honest, I don't know where those titles come from, unless Kenisu made them all up himself. For the most part, yep. I knew names would be the quickest and easiest way to identify cues, so I took the liberty of creating fan-titles where no "official" titles existed -- though I hope no...

Though at some point, since he used it so much (Vegeta's pink scouter, Freeza, Cell's pink eyes, Boo...), you'd think the Z Warriors would see the color pink and be like "oh shit, this guy's definitely bad news!" To quote MST3K (from"Circus on Ice"), "And now, when you see ...
