Personally, I think it would interrupt the flow of the show.

Re: DB in live action: what does and does not work (pics)
Exactly, it's about realistic expectations when going from drawn page to live action medium. I love Batman the animated series, but I'd never expect a live action Batman to have sharp edged eyes or a literal square head, that's a given. How about chracter's like Bulma? You'd probably have to tone d...

Re: DB in live action: what does and does not work (pics)
I think one of the biggest issues Dragon Ball (and a lot of anime) has when it comes to adapting it to live action is the art style. Ghost in the Shell managed to work in visuals because the original designs (at least no the manga) weren't cartoony and looked more realistic and thus easier to adapt ...

Re: Non-thread-worthy discussions
With the passing of Hiromi Tsuru, who do you think will voice Bulma in the future?
My personal pick is Umeka Shouji. Hearing her for the first time Digimon Universe: Appli Monster as Eri Karen fooled me to think it was Hiromi Tsuru doing the role but ended up surprised it was a different actress.

Whoever runs the scouter manufacturing department in Freeza's empire should be fired for constant explosions of their products in which goes against the Product Liability Law.
But then again, would Freeza even care?

Good bye Champa and Co. (Until the predictable reset button to come) Although chances are less, Toriyama might decide to go for Universes not being restorable once zeno erases it.. If not, it might be an invitation for potential plot hole of if SDB really can do anything, why didn't they restore al...

Manga Entertainment UK DVD question
So I was shopping one night and found some anime DVD and Bluray on sale, but I also found these Dragon Ball Z DVDs that I have no idea what they are besides being published by Manga Entertainment UK: https://images2.imgbox.com/26/1f/KnxoAzCm_o.jpg Are these the same as FUNimation's remastered 16:9 r...

Ouch! What a punch to the guts! Hisomi Tsuru is, if not the other big voice of the franchise and this really hurts. Her final line recorded carries a whole different meaning now.

VegettoEX made some posts regarding this one on Twitter, but I really hate the trend of taking screenshots of Super or any other current Dragon Ball animation and mess it up with photoshop filters and call it "What if [blank] was made in 1990" and all that shit.

Re: Sony To Acquire Majority Stake in Funimation
From my understanding, Sony is leaving FUNimation's crew as it is, no changes to the simulcast nor simuldubs, nothing will affect the partnership between them and Crunchyroll, for now anyway.
It could've been worse... could've been EA who bought them instead.
