The Funimation DVD for OG (Blue Brick) and GT (Green Brick) had option for English version of OP and ED, which were pretty good.
I'm curious what Z English OP and ED would have been like and who would have been singer?

The English version (not English version by Kageyama) does exist in Pilipino release; I don't think they did "We Were Angels" (ED2), as far as I'm aware. I'm curious if Funimation did English version, if it would have been similar to it.

If Z ever gets a re-release on Blu-ray, with English version of OP and ED (which seems very unlikely), I wouldn't mind getting one... even though most people are already tired of owning same series over and over on various formats.

It would be cool but... unless paired with them taking all the Kai dialog files they have and finishing the rest of Z (I mean why not? It wouldn't be a complete redub.. you have over half of the lines needed) I just wouldn't really bother, especially since with CR and Toei's track record (ANOTHER shitty upscale Toei? Seriously?) I would expect it to still be the same shitty optical Japanese audio, still no actual dub broadcast audio and some massive video issues.
