Quick question about the season 1 set

Post by Flamzeron » Fri Jan 11, 2013 12:52 am

All season 1 sets being sold on Amazon and Rightstuf have the Kikuchi score, right? There's no mix of the Yamamoto DVDs and the Kikuchi DVDs (meaning they are selling both and it's a gamble as to which one you'll get, unless stated otherwise), correct?

You'll get Kikuchi as long as you buy the ones direct from Amazon.

Are there any other differences between the Yamamoto and Kikuchi DVDs?

Uh, yeah. One has music by Kenji Yamamoto and the other has music by Shunsuke Kikuchi. :P

In all seriousness, you can tell the difference on the case because the UPC differs between the two. But like I said, order direct from Amazon, and you're getting Kikuchi.

Actually, there are two listings on amazon right now. The link that Metalwario provided seems to be for the more recent Kikuchi-score release. The following listing is fulfilled by amazon, but sold by a company called MN Media.

http://www.amazon.com/Dragon-Ball-Kai-S ... Ball+Z+Kai

As you can see on the product details, the release dates for the two are not the same; the quantity available is also indicative of a more limited release. That being the case, I'd say it's worth checking into.

What do you mean it's worth checking into? I said as long as it's direct from Amazon, it's Kikuchi. That other listing is from a 3rd party seller's stock, and it's the older Yamamoto release listing. You'd be taking a chance ordering from that one.

Isn't there an something about this on the site anyway?

I meant no disrespect; I simply thought I would build on what you had already covered by providing a bit more clarification on the subject.

When taking third party sellers into consideration, it is a gamble as to which release you will actually receive. I thought I'd better the original poster's chances of hunting down a particular version of this set (should he/she wish to do so) by supplying another existing page where the item in question is listed.

I'm very sorry if I've caused any confusion.

Well, yeah. I already knew that.

I meant besides the music change.

Only difference besides the music is that Kikuchi is credited instead of Yamamoto within the episodes.
