I wonder if they had issues with the content. They clearly had access to Sleeping Princess since they inserted bits of its footage into the opening and used a frame of Devil's Hand for their eyecatch. Was something about Sleeping Princess objectionable to Harmony Gold? Or maybe they thought movie 3 was more interesting and just decided to combine that with movie 1 nevermind "Bongo" and "Marilyn "come out of nowhere.

I wonder if they thought that the 'devil' was too suggestive? Or they couldn't make the pilot longer than 85 minutes?MasenkoHA wrote: ↑Tue Nov 08, 2022 1:05 amI wonder if they had issues with the content.

Nice to know we can finally have a definitive presentation for the Harmony Gold dub. Considering how brief it's run was and how long the episodes were lost its a small miracle that it was found.
Much appreciate the hard work of KBABZ as well as Tom_Servo in this lost media saga.

Do you have any info about international non-English broadcasts about the Dragon Ball anime or manga translations/editions? Please message me. Researching for a future book with Dragon Ball scholar Derek Padula

I thought it was because of content, namely Goku appearing naked towards the end... but they could've easily cut that out.MasenkoHA wrote: ↑Tue Nov 08, 2022 1:05 am I wonder if they had issues with the content.

Yeah, it's great that the dub was found.Dragon Ball Ireland wrote: ↑Tue Nov 08, 2022 6:29 am Nice to know we can finally have a definitive presentation for the Harmony Gold dub. Considering how brief it's run was and how long the episodes were lost its a small miracle that it was found.

I knew there was a chance (though very unlikely) that the episodes of the dub would come to light, considering that there were a few people who claimed to have recordings of the episodes.
The dub itself is surprisingly faithful to the original source material (besides the name changes of course). It's pretty decent compared to other 80s english dubs of anime (Robotech, Voltron, etc).

For the movie(s)? Yes. For the tv show? Barely a line of dialog is the same and most of the time the characters are just prattling on about nonsense.
Re: Are There Any Updates On The Harmony Gold Dub Of Dragon Ball?
That is true. Though I do remember that they butchered Master Roshi's "Kamehameha" line pretty bad in the movie. He did it like "Ka-Me-Hameha.. Hyah!" Like, what the heck?

It's weird and kinds cringey but other than that I pretty much enjoyed the movie combo. But I may be biased since it uses my tape audio.inninnin wrote: ↑Sun Dec 04, 2022 9:50 pmThat is true.
