This is the moment of truth, Kenji or no Kenji?

Not really. All over Japan there have been reports of viewers watching and noticing the BGM changed, which means, in Japan, it already took place. Therefore, the answer is "no Kenji". Even Fuji TV and Toei's Kai websites got Yamamoto out of the picture for good and changed the staff listing to "Kikuchi Shunsuke" in place of "Yamamoto Kenji" for the Music section.
So mondo lame.

Can anyone help with a quick link for download or watch Fuji TV online?

Google didn't help.

Its broadcast starts in about 30 mintues.
Do you use KeyHoleTV? It's a nifty little application for watching Japanese television on your computer.

I think a lot of people, myself included, would like it to be Kenji Yamamoto's music, but we'll see.

It's pretty surreal watching Kai with Kikuchi's score.
Kentai wrote:Son Gokuu is a fascinating character anyway, because he is - at face value, anyway - an idiot savant. The victim of violent head trauma as an infant [...] he's a simple bumpkin with a fair share of brain damage who's natural talents to work out what's wrong compensate for his broad lack of common sense. But he's also a fighter, through and through [...] he fight until he has, in no uncertain terms, beaten his enemy on terms they can both acknowledge. He doesn't want to kill anyone, or even prove that he can win... he just wants to know he can. He's an ineffably charming bastard who's manly leanings were really incendental, and yes, the fact that he was voiced by a squeaky woman made the combination perhaps all the more charming.

It's feels kinda pointless watching Kai with the old score, and they changed the narrator.

Thank God they're using the same piece when Goku talks to Gohan, as in the original. And I like what they used at the episode titles.

No real point to it, just to add bits of info to the discussion, if that makes any sense.

I think the music selection works well with the scenes accompanied.

Yeah this music placement is waaaaaayyyy off for my liking. I just don't feel like this particular scene shouldn't sound so angel-like. Well Gohan's charging his Kamehameha. Music should not be so slow-moving. Dammit Toei! Why couldn't you acknowledge the rip-offs after Kai was finished. XD

Well first half of the episode is out of the way, and I can honestly say I would rather enjoy-OH FATHER SON KAMEHAMEHA :D

EDIT: I realize that certain piece was playing in the original, but I still don't like it. The Kai score had some fast-paced music, and Faulconer is what I grew up with, therefore, I'm used to fast paced pieces playing, like Cell's defeat just shouldn't sound so heroic.

EDIT 2: No moar flashy flashy when Gohan does the Father-Son Kamehameha?
GT isn't bad, just sucks ass in comparison to the other 2 animes.

I think the music choices have been fine, but maybe there's a little too much music.

Damn I love Kikuchi's score but watching this now makes me feel as though the music is out of place. The scene where everyone is fighting Cell should sound more "edge of my seat-ish" if you know what I mean.
