Re: What's the video source for DBZ on BD from Kazé in Germany? Anyone has screen captures of SV and DBZ 30A BD releases

It's also weird that CR, who took over FUNimation wouldn't be using the 30A BD set that FUNimation released that I believe CR releases in the United States... Not anymore, it appears Funimation wanted to keep the 30th anniversary discs limited edition exclusives in the US. They rereleased them on t...

Germany got Dragon Box masters for their DVDs right? Probably Kazé's own upscale of those or imported pre-upsxaled video tracks from Selecta Vision.

Re: Ocean Studios' "Dragon Ball Kai" Dub Turns 14; Still Unreleased

I guess the proportion between Calgary and Vancouver in the cast is more varied than I thought. Maybe we can also expect the new Krillin being from Calgary... well, when this dub gets released... I think the majority of the cast is from Vancouver because this Kai dub is primarily a production of Oc...

While I appreciate you asking Karl Willems for an interview Kirbopher you do need to let guests like him talk more. Interviews are always about the guest, first and foremost because they are ultimately the ones your viewers want to hear from.

According to AnimeNewNetwork (who are generally not bad as a source) Dawn Harvey is Baba. The LostMediaWiki is also now listing Michael Daingerfield as Recoome. I recall this was a rumour but don't remember where it came from. Someone also wrote that Tim Hamaguchi (i.e. James Beach) is the new Zarb...

Long have I waited for this.

Toriyama only deserves the best, I'm sure this won't disappoint as you have all been fans long enough.

Re: Hope you're having a great birtday party in afterlife, Akira Toriyama-sensei!

Hopefully wherever you are you are being celebrated - Akira Toriyama. The afterlife shall remain the greatest mystery for most of us (especially on the fence agnostics like me) all until our time comes but I'd love to think if there is one Toriyama is being treated well there and is reunited with an...

Dragon Ball-related Conflations

For those unaware a conflation is when two or more pieces of information are combined to make one, and is an easy way for rumours to form and spread because the sources alone are accurate without the context of the other piece(s) of information. I've considered the possibility this has been the caus...

Looking forward to the interview, Karl seems like a very down to Earth, fan-focused guy (based on what he's said about disputes with engineers and producers). Aside from the cast it would be great to know who any of the writers for the Ocean dub of Kai were, if Karl can dig that up. If any of the sa...

Re: Did toonami use the OG dragon ball dub opening

Although it's not specified I am going to guess this question is referring to Toonami US, as we need to keep in mind there was the Toonami UK channel that aired original Dragon Ball exclusively with the dub OP between 2003 and 2005. It was the Blue Water OPs (both UK and Canadian variants) this chan...

Plenty of Dr Slump characte4s also exist in the Dragon Ball world too, like Se...

Re: Akira Toriyama Passes Away.

If the OST is phenomenal, as in the case with DB and LOTR, I consider the composer on the same level as the creator/writer/director/etc. Most definitely, Shunsuke Kikuchi brought Akira Toriyama's manga to life, its just the perfect score whether it's the adventure, comedy, action or tranquill momen...
