Re: Why wasn't DB Kai a completely new animated series?

I don't know about you, but I enjoy a good remastering process, and the use of original cels blown up to modern resolutions, cut for the intended viewing experience, because the old remasters did it without reason, is a sound strategy for art that was already so good! In Dragon Ball Kai, there's no...

Re: Toei Animation celebrates 30 years of DragonBall Z with new licensing deals, products and events!

I don’t think “Faulconer fanboys” are really a thing outside of the Internet. I mean, even though most American fans are dub fans, the percentage of them that even know the name “Bruce Faulconer” is an extremely small niche. No one is gonna go to a DBZ concert and boo it, especially for a reason lik...

Re: Dragon Ball Z "Composer" Shuky Levy accused of attempted murder by Sarah Brown

Huh? Are you arguing that males don’t have a size and weight advantage over females? They definitely do. And yikes. It’s definitely reasonable to be against putting male and female inmates in the same prisons. I’m not even sure why that was brought up in this thread. No no, see, that's the thing. I...

Re: Close to Toriyama but not Toriyama

I thought Toriyama wrote Battle of Gods and Resurrection F, which Super is largely based on. So aren’t we sort of talking about the same thing, except for Future Trunks arc and Tournament of Power arcs? Also, I think the Internet gives a false impression of how “hated” the Star Wars prequel trilogy ...

Re: Looking to buy all the Japanese Dragon Boxes

At this point, all I care about is having the show in 4:3 full screen. If you nitpick over everything else you’ll never be happy. I obsessed over that stuff for years and it just made me miserable. lol People even talk crap about the Dragon Boxes now. It’s a shame that there is no optimal release, a...

Re: Dragon Ball Z "Composer" Shuky Levy accused of attempted murder by Sarah Brown

What makes you think we aren't? I also feel like people are assuming we don't have experience with this issue simply because we don't agree. I mean, I agree with your logic. Adolf Hitler is worse than Vic Mignogna, for obvious reasons. It's also frustrating, when you're making what you think is a l...

Re: Dragon Ball Z "Composer" Shuky Levy accused of attempted murder by Sarah Brown

It's crazy how the people behind the English dub for Dragon Ball often turned out to be such disturbed individuals. First we have Bruce Falconer the credit-stealing hack. Then we have Sean Schemmel and his hilariously fragile ego. Vic Mignogna and his fiendish ways. Now the composer for the Ocean d...

Re: Kanzenshuu Members' Favorite Manga

I haven’t read many of these so my opinion is worth squat, but from the list I’ll go with Dragon Ball Super as my favorite. It’s good that the original series was excluded because then 99% would’ve chosen that and this poll wouldn’t have much meaning. lol Also I know it’s not on the list, but I saw ...

Re: DragonBall should do more with politics

The politics in Dragon Ball just shifted from the Earth to the entire cosmos in Super. You still have politics in Super, but they are the politics of the Gods. The bickering between the Kais and Destroyers, the competition hosted between Beerus and Champa, Zeno serving as the ultimate monarch of th...

As a big Yu-Gi-Oh fan I’ve known about this for a while (my username is a character from the show lol). It’s cool to see this brought up on a Dragon Ball fan site. I think it’s awesome that they did this.

Re: Toei should promoto Piccolo more as a LGBTQQIP2SAA character

We're talking about recognizing him as asexual, not gay. 'Lol nah' is a rude, flippant attitude to have towards your fellow users and LGBTQIA+ folks.
