Upon registration, a prospective member could write a short post introducing themselves, stating why they're here, and generally providing an example of how well they can type. People who are lack...

I think it makes sense to keep using the theme song until it changes in at the proper point in the actual show. Just my opinion, though.

Most people who I went to school with knew about and enjoyed the series from when it aired on Toonami back in the day. It was a pretty common and pretty popular trend, honest--just like Pokémon, merchandise was rampant and everybody would watch it daily whenever it came on. I guess I was pretty luck...

Isn't that less of a legal grey area? Thats direct distribution of copyrighted work, seems like even worse of an offense than just posting it on YouTube. That and the lack of direct feedback might not be the best moral booster. It's about at this point of ridiculousness that I generally give legali...

You could always try a different website. DailyMotion and Viddler are pretty decent alternatives, and as far as I can tell they have nowhere near as many issues with videos being taken down. It's still just another variation on security through obscurity. It doesn't change the fact that, for all in...

I'd always known about the Japanese audio for the longest time, but I never really got into listening to it regularly until I watched one of the double feature releases of the Dragon Ball Z movies. What bugged me is that the BGM volume on the dub track with Japanese BGM was very low, lacked several ...

Man, Kaboom, you're totally doing it all wrong. You've gotta do it like this: HEY. Cut the shit or the thread is getting locked.

If the Dragon Box Z is successful and they make a lot of money, they absolutely will realese the DB Dragon Box. Actually, they probally have already planned to realese footage from all 5 Dragon Boxes here in the states. What I'm looking foward to the most though, is Dragon Box the Movies. Over at K...

Not to rain on your parade, but didn't we just have a thread like this? I distinctly remember expressing my interest in a special that explores what happened when Majin Buu was first created and ravaged the galaxy.

No idea! There's been no official word on it yet, so we really have no way of knowing until FUNimation makes any sort of announcement... if they're going to make any sort of announcement, anyway.

Sure would be nice, though. :)

If it's talking about Bardock and Freeza, I'm pretty sure they're just remastering the Bardock special like they are with everything else. It's a shame, though--some new animation would be awesome.
