FUNimation's finally climbing up the ladder, I see.

I always side eye the people who say "Now my kids/today's kids can experience what I did as a child!" Nigga, who gives a fuck about your childhood? You're an adult now and it was at least 15 years ago. Let the kids have their own experience instead of picking at a corpse.

I kind of want a Ford Focus now.

Wow...that was pretty amazing.
On another note, I could have sworn I heard Nadolny's voice at the very end of the video though but upon repeated viewings, it sounds like it was Clinkenbeard after all.

Too bad we can't get flying cars like in Dragonball though...

I...just...what even is this world.
I mean, as far as I know, we've never - never - had Dragon Ball used to advertise something here that wasn't at least already related to the series in some way. We had toy ads, game ads, ads for Shonen Jump, etc., but a completely-unrelated-otherwise vehicle? That's the kind of thing that happens rarely enough for US made shows. I would never in my wildest dreams have expected something like this to ever even come to someone's mind, much less be made.

Yeah, it seems it is Colleen doing a Nadolny impression I guess? Which is odd since they have the Japanese music in the background.WittyUsername wrote:Wow...that was pretty amazing.

Re: The Dragon Ball Ford Focus ad on YouTube
Is that a Kikuchi track? I don't remember it being used in Z. I thought it was generic music Sony provided because well, frankly Sony seems to be a big part of this ad too.Baggie_Saiyan wrote:Which is odd since they have the Japanese music in the background.

Well confession time I haven't seen Z with the Japanese music so I assumed I just assumed it was, that makes more sense now.LuckyCat wrote:Is that a Kikuchi track?

Re: The Dragon Ball Ford Focus ad on YouTube
I'm far from an expert on this kind of thing, but as far as I could tell, the music is something they cooked up for the commercial. It certainly doesn't sound familiar to me at any rate.
Has Kenisu3000 seen the ad yet? He'd probably be the most likely to recognize it if it is from a previous Japanese source.

My wildest theory on these is one of 'um is gonna air during the Super Bowl, simply because of how strange all this is.SSJ God Gogeta wrote:It seems they released another one.

Was that Faulconer dub music in that ad?

Kind of disappointing in comparison to the last one honestly. Not sure I approve of this if it becomes a common thing, especially if they're just recycling old animation from the series.
With a company like Ford you'd at least expect them to afford animators for a commercial.

Now all we need is Tullece in a Taurus commercial.

Re: The Dragon Ball Ford Focus ad on YouTube
I no longer know how I ever lived in a world without Dragon Ball vehicle advertisement. This is clearly one of the greatest things to come out of the franchise since it's inception.

Re: The Dragon Ball Ford Focus ad on YouTube
It sounds like it, but it's really just a synthesized piano hitting two or three notes so anyone could've composed it. I think it's funny Sony isn't mentioned in this commercial, and suddenly the music quality drops.precita wrote:Was that Faulconer dub music in that ad?
