Re: Dragon Ball Z more violent than Dragon Ball?

I remember an example of bloodless carnage in the General Blue Saga with the aforementioned Blue's troops getting killed by that trap in the cave. There was no blood at all. :lol: There wasn't blood on the spear either that killed Oopa's father, which was thrown by Tao Pai Pai. Yeah, I remember tha...

Re: Hilariously bad DB voice acting

No mention of Big :mrgreen: yet? I heard there are versions for DB Movies 1-3, too. Anyone know where I can find clips from those? I can only find Z clips here.

Re: Why did Goku stop killing people?

It's interesting that no one is mentioning a specific outlier: Black. Now here's a guy who Goku did not have a specific revenge motive against. He's someone who offered to not fight Goku in the first place. And he's someone who technically surrendered. He tried to run away, similar to Jheese, yet G...

Re: International Song Replacements

Dragon Ball: Revenge of King Piccolo also has Tenkaichi music in the Japanese version because it was a budget game. Dragon Ball: Advanced Adventure does have music of the series but it's exclusive to the Japanese edition. You can download it here: http://www.kanzenshuu.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&...

Re: What if 4Kids got DB?

Japanese Sonic X also had leitmotifs (including one used for almost all Eggman appearances), So, basically, I didn't hate the 4Kids score for Sonic X because it replaced the original that I later came to adore. It's really bad on its own. I can't really say the same for any other dub replacement sc...

Re: International Song Replacements

Advanced Adventure has different title screen music but I don't remember if the in-game music was different. Same with Origins but with the opening too. Revenge of King Piccolo in US used BT2/3 music so the JP Version most likely had different music. Attack of the Saiyans is exactly the same OST So...

Re: What if Kai was the original TV airing?

Batman: TAS, Superman: TAS Not that much if you think about it. Batman's more or less the same from episode to episode. The biggest change in the characters is probably Robin becoming Nightwing. As for Superman the animated series, I don't remember a whole lot there either. Don't get me wrong, both...

International Song Replacements

Not sure whether I should put this under Video Games or Music, but I went with the former here, so correct me if I'm wrong, by all means. I haven't played a Dragon Ball game yet, but am looking into a few potential ones right now. The ones that interest me the most currently are the ones based on th...

Re: Why are people so obsessed with DB returning to CN?

Also, what is this whopper of a lizard you speak of? I don't think I recall this line. That was quietly re-dubbed when they put the "season" sets out (shame on them), but in actual season three, when Vegeta wakes up and sees Porunga for the first time, he belts out that unintentionally hi...

Re: What if 4Kids got DB?

4Kids would've had a really bad score for this series if they had done it. Imagine this with the type of music in the Sonic X dub. :shock: And it would have voice actors almost as good as :mrgreen: . Remember how in the Sonic X dub there were a few notes which acted as Sonic's leitmotif, and they s...

Re: Will you buy the Majin Boo arc when it's released on BD/

What do we reckon Funimation will release this as? If it really is 69 episodes. Three Season sets? Six individual discs? Both? They haven't done singles for Kai, at least not in the US. I think you might mean Parts here. I don't know if they'll do Parts (and this is assuming that they're doing this...

I have a feeling that this isn't happening :( :x . I know, the whole idea seems strange. Back in the day there was the whole "Canadian Content" thing, but I don't think there's any rhyme or reason to do a completely different English dub of the series, especially after the Funi dub has al...

Hmmm, this sounds interesting. So, do you think us few fans who actually like the US scores would like Sumitomo's work? Hell no, the US score is a million times better than this crap.

Re: What's the opinion of the JP fans towards the Orange Bri

That also makes me wonder what native fans think of the English version that's on those sets. Especially the US music.
