Shit! This is GREAT! Basically the best English DBZ experience since I don't think Kienzan's Z Recut's dub option is gonna use any Kai audio (could be wrong).

Thanks mate! And I can see where you're coming from with the title cards. Basically, the challenge would be creating great high quality recreations of DBZ's Japanese style of Title Card with Kanji for all 167 episodes. That's not something I can devote a lot of time to doing and I don't want to just reuse DBZ's title cards as I want them to be named after the Kai episodes themselves. If down the line, someone can receate the old style of title card but with nicely drawn kanji that matches the episode title, I would definitely pop it in a version 2, but for the meantime, I decided to go with my personal preference of English title card which is the Orange Brick style font. :)

It's pretty unlikely because of micro cuts and lip flap changes actually occurring during dialogue.

If there's a version with the Kai dub down the line (much further down), it'll be a separate project with the video being dictated to by the audio rather than the other way around, and it'll still be a hybrid dub due to some cannon scenes that were cut from Kai 🤷‍♀️
