Re: "Dragon Ball Z Kai: The Final Chapters" FUNimation English Dub Official Announcement and Discussion Thread

So, what's the biggest thing everyone's looking forward to for Funi's Final Chapters dub? For me personally, it'll be Vegeta's sacrifice. Same here, looking forward to anything and everything Vegeta really. All his speeches as Majin Vegeta were top notch, looking forward to hearing an accurately tr...

Re: Guys, why is Kikuchi so good?

Arghhhhh somebody please get me the Dragon Boxes so I can watch the show as close to its original form as possible As someone who used to own them, trust me, the DBoxes are overrated. The fact is, Dragon Ball isn't all that pretty of a show to begin with. Even though the boxes are far ahead of most...

Guys, why is Kikuchi so good?

Like, geez. So I'm like so many others that grew up with the OG Funi dub+Faulconer Productions music, and hated anything else. Eventually got past nostalgia and liked Funi Kai way better than OG Funi and loved the Yamamoto score, even using the Yamamoto Revival Project to get the score back into epi...

Re: Piccolo's death: GT vs Super

Honestly? GT's death felt more impactful. Still boggles my mind how Piccolo died in Super. Can't Namekians regenerate a hole like that? Remember how he almost died in DBZ from Frieza's blast, and he would have died if Dende hadn't healed him? He didn't regenerate that. Pretty sure the power differe...

Re: Does anyone kinda miss the Pre-Minus (or Pre-BoG) era?

I don't miss it because it's still there, untouched. The art style and overall direction of the series is so different now that I can separate them in my head, while still at times connecting them, thinking stuff like: "Man, Vegeta's getting owned by Kid Boo, but in just a couple years he'll be...

Re: Do you think the Dragon Ball fanbase is bad?

It really just depends on where you look. Kanzenshuu here might be the best community anywhere on the internet, it's certainly the best I've ever seen. It's full of reasonable, respectful and knowledgeable people that don't disrespect people for their dub, version, and arc preferences. But go to Gam...

Re: Have we ever had villains so reckless and inefficient?

Re: Is the "partial" re-dub of Season 3 worth it?

Sabat's Vegeta actually got worse in the redub compared to his then recent work in the Buu saga. Buu Saga was ok, but then in the redub he went like full Kuwabara. Frieza sounded more experienced but the voice was still bad. I dunno, I could go on, but like others have said Kai is the true redub wo...

Re: At what point does Funimation's dub start becoming tolerable (if not good)?

I think the Buu arc, The Saiyan arc's redub, DB & GT are alright, maybe a 6/10 while the rest of the Z anime is a 4 at best. Z's movies would be 6-7 while Kai, BOG & RF are an 8 at least. I would put movie 8 up there with Kai. The Broly movie? I've gotta disagree with you there. I mean the ...

Re: At what point does Funimation's dub start becoming tolerable (if not good)?

It was tolerable when they started dubbing Dragon Ball. Only tolerable though. Still pretty bad/lackluster pretty consistently. If there's one thing the loud and constant Faulconer music did well in Z, it was that it covered up the bad performances a little. Since Dragon Ball didn't have that, they...

Re: *sigh* Can someone just like...give me their Dragon Boxe

From what I can tell the cancelled level sets are at least a good contender for the Dragonbox. If they hadn't been cancelled the Dragonboxes might not be in such high demand. But instead we're stuck with grain removal and cropping as the only release of DBZ on the market. Yeah most people I have he...

Re: *sigh* Can someone just like...give me their Dragon Boxe

IMO the Japanese Dragon Boxes are really worth the money. You get extras, better video quality and (I think) no out of sync audio tracks unless the tracks are out of sync on both releases. Only problem is no subs... Yeah but no subs is the deal breaker for me. Also I can only ever find the Japanese...

Re: DBZ Kai Dub and Goku's character

A decent enough compromise for the BoG line, I think, would be "you can't just destroy things!" It doesn't sound awkward and isn't overly superhero-sounding. Don't know if that would exactly fit in the mouth, though . I'm very glad you mentioned that, because it's an important thing to ke...
