Re: New Dragon Ball Z Blu-Rays From Crunchyroll Coming August 1st

why are they going back to the 2013 masters after making such a huge fuss about the 30th anniversary sets being in 4:3? I know "the way it was meant to be seen" is a meme around these parts but COME ON... Most likely the same reason the level sets were canned even though Steve Franko conf...

Pilaf Gang shouldn't be revived (Spoilers from Full Color manga, Piccolo volume 3)

I've just read in DB Full Color Piccolo Saga Volume 3, that Crane Hermit and Tao Pai Pai were killed after 23rd Budokai and because they were bad guys, they weren't revived in Buu Saga. Now, why Pilaf and his gang, who tried to conquer world, attempted to murder bunch of teenagers and kids and free ...

Re: Does Toriyama regret the racist caricatures he included

To add to this, he actually gave a shit about all their soldiers that ended up dying for such a petty desire so he's at least a somewhat better guy than Red. Also, kudos for trying to win Goku over, even willing to give up on world domination wish, so Bora could be revived :) But then...why he thou...

Re: Does Toriyama regret the racist caricatures he included

To think anime made some stuff even more eyebrow raising, like giving Black Sanbō (Staff Officer) title or making General Blue pedophile... I also wonder, if he regrets making Lady Red? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JaqepnU-Ft8

Re: Dragon Ball Kai to air in Poland in April

Agreed :)

Also, watched 1st episode, translation is based on Japanese original (No Piccolo comment before attack, Bulma mouth moves, but no sound :) ) voices for Radditz and Gohan are pretty good.

Re: Dragon Ball Kai to air in Poland in April

A promo for the show aired today on Polsat Games. We can hear Piccolo and Gokū's voice actors from DBS as well as the voices for Nappa and presumably Raditz. The promo claims the show will air today, but as you can tell from the video, DBS aired instead. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kSxXRLdcriY ...

Re: Is Post EoZ Content "Forbidden" Because of GT &/or EoZ serving as Toriyama's official epilogue?

It's "forbidden" because Toriyama thinks the EoZ characters are too old. That's why events of Super happened during "10 year gap". I find his thinking stupid, but he's the author, so... whatever. His thinking is stupid and just one more example of how weirdly restrictive his app...

Re: "No, there’s nothing you can learn by reading Dragon Ball"

They argue at length about the wisdom of letting Vegeta go. Goku says that it would be a waste to kill him at this point, and it wouldn't solve anything. He says that Vegeta deserves mercy, that he's learned his lesson, and also that this is the strongest opponent that he has ever seen, and that he...

If i remember correctly, in shows like Batman TAS, they first record lines, and then did animation. Kaiser even mentioned matching dialogue to moving lips is real pain. And in parody you can at least adjust lips, but not in official dub...

As previously announced, the show did not air today but Kosmowski left an interesting comment: The thing is that Toei hasn't delivered all the materials, and they need further approval of the terminology. I'm not sure if we'll have everything for April 24th, but we are asking the Japanese side to b...

Re: DragonBall Z Abridged

I don't think TFS ever muddled the argument anywhere near as badly as the actual dub of Z. Because Abridged has a disclaimer in every episode that "This is a parody. Dragon Ball belongs to Toriyama. Support the official release." Like, if anyone actually thinks Popo is an evil overlord of...

Re: Has Dragon Ball used things from other materials?

As well as everything already mentioned, everyone seems to forget Roshi's blatantly plagiarised flying steed Baby Gamera, who's literally just a miniaturised copy of the turtle kaiju of the same name owned by Daiei Film. It's no surprise Baby Gamera's appearances are very sparse. Previous Toriyama ...
