Hopefully the remastering process for this set will be better than the process used for AB's movies boxset, but since they are getting the next episode previews, I guess anything would be fine.
Hopefully the french subs won't be added to the actual frames of the next episodes previews, so that you can watch the previews raw...

Updated first post with a couple of modifications. To reply about the remastering. No, it's not the same as the movies boxsets.SSj_Rambo wrote:Hopefully the remastering process for this set will be better than the process used for AB's movies boxset, but since they are getting the next episode previews, I guess anything would be fine.

Re: Gigantic French DBZ Box 1/3 Officially Announced.
Ok I was amazed when I watched the picture, very nice. But I was even more amazed when I saw that. Fans are allowed to touch the film??? Just because they are FANS? OMG, I hope something like that happens in Holland.sangofe wrote: More specific information:

FUNi do that with the Double Features, too.Innagadadavida wrote:I like how they put the Toei animation logo on the cover.
But, yeah, it looks rather nice...
Now, only if it had English subs, I'd be all set...
New to the forum? Just want to know when you'll hit your next posting rank? Ever wondered why some users have special titles, and what they mean? The answers to all these questions and more are waiting for you in the Kanzenshuu Member Hierarchy Guide!!

It also seems like you'll be able to get the box for 150 euro's at certain stores.

This makes me wish I didn't give up on French in High School.
Anyway, I suppose we can mark another country down on the list of ones that have big Dragon Ball boxsets that look better than the Season Sets.
*gazes at season sets on shelf*
Well at least they're better than... well... uh... well, the GT sets look okay, right?

Wow, those "digi-packs" sure look amazing! I love how the packs use the names in Japanese, but it kind sucks how their pronunciation for Freeza is a little off. I also found it weird how for the attacks for Gohan and Goku that they listed, they used accurate French Romanization, yet for the one Freeza attack they listed, they seem to have just translated it. Oh well.
I also really like how the menus so closely resemble those of the Dragon Box; close enough to be an obvious reference, but different enough to be its own thing.
I also decided to align all of the side panels of the revealed "digi-packs", which was a lot harder than it should have been, since the three scans they gave us are different sizes and ratios!
Looks very nice, and Vegeta in his Saiya-jin armor (which is a pretty weird outfit for him to be in, considering what episodes will be covered in the ensuing packs) is clearly going to be the next character featured in the spin-image. I also found it weird how the red Toei Animation logo is so much higher up on the spine of the third volume than it is one the first two, but the case was similar for the DBGT Dragon Box.

Hmm... if this is pitch-corrected, I might consider picking this up. If not, color me uninterested. PAL just really, REALLY bothers me.
[quote="Brakus"]For all the flack that FUNimation gets on this forum for their quote about DBZ, there's some modicum of truth to it: a 9-year-old is born every day. Or in some cases, "reborn". DBZ may be a kids' show, but it's been so close to so many hearts all over Japan, America, and quite possibly, even the world.[/quote]
