Re: How would you introduce Dragon Ball to Gen Alpha?
As a kid, I was exposue to worse stuff than what I see in anime like DB. I had to read the Bible at a young age because my family was Roman Choathic and the stuff that read was truly shocking and disturbing.

Re: How would you introduce Dragon Ball to Gen Alpha?
I [*] Tao being referred to as a "General" even though he was merely an assassin hired by Commander Red to defeat Goku This was only in the Z dub. The original Dragon Ball dub "fixes it" by changing his name to Mercenary Tao. While that's not really correct either it was closer ...

Re: How would you introduce Dragon Ball to Gen Alpha?
I think most kids over the age of 8 can watch uncut Dragon Ball just fine as long as they haven't been brought up to be disrespectful little shits and understand boundaries and personal space and consent Pretty much this. Kids are a lot smarter than people give them credit for. When I was a kid, I ...

Re: The end of era: Sony discontinues that the Funimation brand on April 2
The same kids who got into anime through Dragon Ball Z would have just gotten into it through Naruto or Gundam or Yugioh Probably not Naruto Naruto, One Piece, Bleach, etc already had fans in the US before their anime was dub. If DBZ didn't air on TV and was a direct to video anime title, I bet the...

Re: The end of era: Sony discontinues that the Funimation brand on April 2
The "Funimation made anime mainstream by bringing Dragon Ball Z to America" lie is up there with "Dragon Ball Z was a commercial failure until it aired on Toonami" and "Funimation had to fire the Ocean cast because they couldn't afford them without Saban" in fan miscon...

Re: Ocean Studios' "Dragon Ball Kai" Dub Turns 14; Still Unreleased
This thread is almost 15 years old and yet no Ocean Kai dub. I think All American Massacre has a better chance on being released than Ocean Kai at this rate

Re: According to Daizenshuu 7, Goku has knowledge about "se*".
Goku had to read Roshi's magazines as a kid. I think he has a clear idea on what sex was.

Re: Do you like fusions?
9 out of 10 times, the result is that the fused is too cocky and refuses to just kill the villain before it's too late, so no. 9 times out of 10 being...Gotenks? Because it didn't really apply to Gogeta in Z Movie 12 or Super Broli where he was the trump card (and I'm fuzzy on his appearance in GT ...

Re: Is a Budokai Reboot possible ?
Maybe, but I don't see one happening anytime soon seeing that we get a new game once every two years now. Many people are still hoping for DBF2 and XV3 to happen.

Re: Actual Celebrities doing dubbing on Dragon Ball (Star Talents)
If they want another celebrity for a character, I would want Tony Todd as Moro. His voice would be perfect for the character.

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)
I don't think any Super Saiyan form will be in the show. I think they really go back to the rots of Goku fighting on his own without any power ups.

Re: Favorite DBZ arc?
The Saiyan saga for me because 1. I love the general tone of the story. Giving us another darker arc and open a big can of worms for the series. Goku being an alien is a big shocker for the readers and the characters living in the DB universe. It really changes Goku as a character and Raditz is a te...

Re: "Sparking! ZERO" Official Announcement & Pre-Release Discussion Thread
Tapion has always been a big fan favorite, so it made sense to make him playable. We never had Bio Broly either probably because his sludge body would be hard to animated back then and he is also very dislike with most fans.

Re: Any FUNi dubisms you still find yourself saying from time to time?
Sometimes I still say Solar Flare than Taiyōken because at least the name makes somewhat sense. For over 20 years, I have seen Gyarikku Hō be translated as "Galick", "Gallick", "Garick", "Garrick", etc. So Galick Gun doesn't feel that bad to me.

Re: "Sparking! ZERO" Official Announcement & Pre-Release Discussion Thread
I feel like DBZ version of Broly will likely be added. They are two seperate characters with a different set of moves.

Re: "Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot" Official Discussion Thread
I feel like the end of DBZ part of the DLC is going to be super short. What can you do in a DLC story that was only a few chapters long.

I could see Goku getting his tail back later in the show. If they really want to do their own SSj4, now they have the chance too.

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)
Goku is not shown as a Super Saiyan. So it's likely his power has been strip down which adds some risk to the story unlike GT. In GT, Goku's power didn't age when he was turn back into a 11 year old.
