Sorry to double-post, but something else I've noticed: the Japanese audio doesn't use Cha-la Head Cha-la or Let it Burn (the Funimation Blu-rays use them, and they're sung in English on both language tracks). I'm guessing that this is also the case on the French DVD?

And, as I mentioned in the Super thread, Over the Star remains in English on the dub track.

edit: to clarify, it's the same music on the French dub. Presumably they started with the French masters and just added English audio/subs.

The dubs that didn't have the insert songs used the same regular Sumitomo track placements as the Japanese cut. I imagine the Japanese track on the French BDs and here on Disney Plus UK is the same.

It's The Final Chapters, so the opening, eyecatcher, and recap music use Fight It Out. Is there somewhere else where Kuu Zen Zetsu Go would show up.

God, I hate Fight It Out. The Japanese version is unbearable but its much more tolerable dubbed.

They aren't available anywhere else; Kuu Zen Zetsu Go and the five endings are exclusive to the Japanese version and have never been released outside of Japan and I don't think they ever will.
