Re: Things that grind your gears

Here are a few things that have grinded my gears to a complete hault: * The green tint on the US release of Broly and the fact that neither Funimation nor Toei bothered to do anything because they are that Kami damned lazy and apathetic. * The green tint in Boo Kai. It is the sole reason I cannot wa...

Re: Funi's Kai dub and accuracy

No need to call him an idiot. That’s so lame. Have a real conversation. I dunno how old you were, but I was in high school and legitimately thought FUNi would be laughed out of the Cartoon Network offices when I first watched that Captain Ginyu tape in spring 1999. To me it was unwatchable then and...

Re: Funi's Kai dub and accuracy

Super comes off like Funimation is aggressively pandering to the Dragon Ball Z Abridge crowd. That's that they are. Specifically, Chris Sabat is as he's the ADR Director for all Dragon Ball material. Let's all remember when he said on Twitter that since everyone had seen Super that their dub would ...

Re: From years to six months was an unnecessary change that still works.

[*]Four months passed ever since Majin Boo's defeat for them to wish people's memories to be erased. It's six months, not four. Battle of Gods is still set 4 years after the Majin Buu arc - in Age 778. The movie is set 4 years after the Boo arc, but the anime says that after Shenron erased our memo...

Re: So, did DBZ Movie 14, and everything after scratched your DB itch?

In Beerus' case, less is more. I think the problem is that he's being overused, resulting in the writers just not knowing what to do with him. I think they would've been able to keep his integrity had he been used for major events only (his movie, the moment you mentioned with Goku, and him killing...

Re: So, did DBZ Movie 14, and everything after scratched your DB itch?

Yeah, it has. I liked BoG, loved RoF, and enjoyed Broly. Super was also a great Sunday morning ritual for me and I miss it. It is different than DB and DBZ, but I still very much enjoy this series and can't wait for more. Moro arc is looking good so far so I have hopes things will just get better.

I've checked and apparently GT has broadcast audio out as well. Holy shit, this is like what Newton said: For every ...

Re: Level 1.1 back...in stock?

Not only were the Season BDs almost certainly mastered using the same rigorous processes (just with a couple of extra steps on the end that totally ruin the picture), but they would've almost certainly spent more on producing them than the Levels thanks to the shot-by-shot reframing. And yet, they ...

Re: What is your opinion about the artistic style of Dragon Ball Super?

I only wish that Super didn't change art styles in episode 77. It should have stayed the same the entire way through whether it's pre-77 or post-76's style. The change bothers me, although consistency is one thing this series has never had thanks to the morons in charge of it domestic and abroad.

Re: Team Faulconer - Singles vs Orange Bricks

Friendly heads up. The voice filters were removed as part of Funimation's revisioning of the series when they released the OBs. I believe they did what they could to make it more like the original product without scrapping the dub and redoing it. I've seen people on YouTube make comparison videos sa...

plagiarism was common then. Future Trunks' theme when he first turns Super Saiyan was also plagiarized (the bass part) . The entire song "Battle Point Unlimited" is plagiarized. Kenji took 3 different songs (all by the same group) and combined them into one and called it his own. Someone ...

Kei17 is quite legendary on this forum. He lives in Japan and has contacts with Toei, it seems. 1.

He only tried giving it...

I'm not sure. I take "sudden and unexpected" to generally mean randomly without warning. Imagine if there was a show where a character had a quest to do something but was stopped by something (wall, forcefield, etc.) Then suddenly, out of nowhere and without warning, got past it with a si...

I was talking to my friend a few days ago and he, despite never having read the manga, says he thinks Faulconer's score is more true to Toriyama's intentions than Kikuchi's score. What is the proper response to this? I told him that most of Funimation didn't even know who Toriyama was when they dub...

Re: Does the fact the DBS anime is not returning make you loose intrest in DB?

Deus ex machina does not mean "asspull" and never has. If an outside power resolves an otherwise hopeless plot situation then it's a deus ex machina. It does not matter if it was foreshadowed much earlier in the story. Foreshadowing does not preclude something from being a deus ex machina...
