They really should of continued this series. There was no reason to dis-continue it. I would of liked to see Green-Namek covers... Or else I'm insane.
If the Spanish FUNimation releases continue, we'll get to see the rest of the covers.

Heh, I almost forgot about that.

Tell me about it, if GT was as convoluted purchase-wise as Z is, I wouldn't bother getting it.

You Americans have it better, we get dual audio consistantly at the end of the Great Saiyaman arc

After buying the 3 Buu boxes, apart from the odd single here and there in the cell/androids saga, that is all of the dual language releases (not counting the movies, season sets and UUE's) you can get here in Australia.

Though I did get the last Z box for cheap today (Merry Christmas to me!)

I'm from aus too, i didnt realize that they werent releasing dual audio until that late in the series. so the american versions have the japanese audio from the beginning is that right? also, are these the ones youre talking about?

Why was that not the Season 1 cover?

Pledge, those are the Ocean dubs. They're edited...heavily in fact.

Read the text on the DVD-spines. They're the Ginyu-and Freeza-arc-DVDs. Ocean never dubbed that part.

Gyt Kaliba · Post by **Gyt Kaliba** » Sun Dec 23, 2007 1:23 pm

Yeah, the dubbed that part I'm pretty sure, but it was for Canadian viewers. I know they Ocean eventually dubbed the Majin Buu Saga, so I don't see why they wouldn't have dubbed Ginyu/Frieza Sagas as well.

That said, I dunno if that's what those are or not though.

TheGreatness25 · Post by **TheGreatness25** » Sun Dec 23, 2007 2:04 pm

Whoops missed that. Hmm...well Ginyu and Frieza in the US would be either 11 or 12 DVDs. Wow... That's good I guess. But are they uncut? I guess I automatically thought they were Ocean dub because I'm used to FUNimation and Ocean dub came out with something that looked like that for the Namek Saga. Sorry my mistake.

Possibly so that Funimation could attempt Spain into buying their releases and get them out of the dark with those over the top bleeded out coloured masters of theirs :3

Jap was a racist term used in WWII, its the equivilant of the "N" word.

Yeah but FUNimation doesn't have anything to do with the Spanish dub. I mean sure, it's featured on the Ultimate Uncut, but that's about it. Unless they bought the Spanish dubs. I remember watching the Spanish dubs when they were still showing Ocean dubs. It would be as if they would release the Japanese version of the show. Just because they feature it ONLY on Ultimate Uncut, doesn't mean anything. I don't get what they're trying to do. I mean they didn't even finish coming out with all of Ultimate Uncut in Spanish. Imagine how many years it'll take for them to release the whole thing, if they were going in that direction? Least they could've done was put the Spanish dub AND SUBTITLES (which they forgot to do on Ultimate Uncut lol) in the Season sets. But they would sell it to me even better if they had an Ocean dub version on their Season sets too. Ohs well. What can ya do.

No, apparently the Freeza-arc was the one part that Ocean DIDN'T dub. The Ocean-dub shown in Canada and the UK started with the Trunks-episodes.

TheGreatness25 · Post by **TheGreatness25** » Sun Dec 23, 2007 3:32 pm

Yup. The way I understand it, the Ocean dub dubbed the Saiyan and Namek Saga, then FUNimation took over the Ginyu and Frieza Sagas. Then Ocean went back and dubbed the Trunks Saga and onward.

In the USA, from Captain Ginyu onwards, they were given a dual language release.

For reasons unknown to us, when madman distributed those dvd's over here, the ditched the Japanese language track, so every boxset until the Buu saga, is dub only here, apart from the odd dvd being dual language in the Cell/androids saga.

So basically if you're looking for dual language boxsets in 4:3 here of Dragonball there's the Ultimate Uncuts, the 3 Buu box sets, all of GT, and all of the movies (although the first movie boxset here is the old pioneer releases we didn't get first strike) and also all of Dragonball collected in two boxes.

Dragonball Z is even more impossible to get here (in 4:3) than in the US, it's annoying because there isn't a single good reason to drop a language track on a dvd already authored in another country.

FUNi's DBZ movie 5 release also has the Spanish dub, albeit with its own English translated subtitle track. Also, keep in mind this is the Mexican-Spanish dub, not the Spain-Spanish dub. There's a considerable population in the US as well whom speak Spanish and also a portion out there whom have much love for this dub, Spanish-speaking or not (such as our own Mike/EX). Anywho, the Spanish dub is so incredibly accurate to the Japanese version, it's very easy to make do with the Japanese version's subs for episodes 1-27 on the UUE DVDs. It's not a big deal and frankly, I don't see what your problem is with it. Other anime have had multiple language options beyond English dubs and Japanese, it's not like FUNi made a bad call with DBZ for the few material Spanish was included in.

thanks for clearing that up Captain Awesome. back on topic

they say uncut on the dvds and the box, so I'm guessing they arent the ocean dub. heres more box sets from the 'series collections' as they are called.

these may have only been released in australia for all i know. they are uncut. they include the uncut singles that were released with 3 eps on them, grouped into boxes. but i dont think all of them have the japanese audio. plus they only started making these from the namek saga upwards, so they would have continued on from the ultimate uncuts if funi had released them all.

those two boxsets DO have the Japanese audio, those are two out of the three Buu saga box sets, I have no idea if they are available in the US in boxes like that, but they are reasonably priced ($70-$75) (compared to paying like $25 for the singles)

I've got both of those on order at my local comic book store, can't wait to get them, because it means If I do choose to keep going with the season sets, I only have to go until the end of the Great Saiyaman saga.

In the US we got boxzed sets for the buu era for "world tournament", "Babidi", "Majin Buu", "Fusion" and "Kid Buu" series of discs (see the DVD guide on the site @ http://www.daizex.com/guides/dvd_guide/ ... ndex.shtml for more info there). "Great Saiyaman" never got a boxed set oddly enough.

TheGreatness25 · Post by **TheGreatness25** » Mon Dec 24, 2007 3:12 am

Actually, I saw a Great Saiyaman box-set at an FYE (or whatever it's called).

Never noticed for the dvds., but did see a box of them for videos.
