The series doesn't start with the arrival of Raditz. Stop being lazy and watch Dragonball.

Google jumpland (all one word). The English description is obviously the link to the English version. From there, they let you see the French, German, and Japanese versions of the site as well.


Since they went to the trouble of translating the site for those outside Japan, I'm betting the browser will offer the following: Japanese with no subs, Japanese with English/French/German subs, and maybe even Japanese with Japanese subs (to be used like captions, obviously).

I'm too frightened to download the browser before anybody else. :P

Downloaded the browser. I'm interested in seeing how it's remotely relevent to the movies; it's just Jumpland's manga browser translated into English. :?

The Anniversary, right? I don't remember much about this. So can someone refresh me on this, please?

It is Jump's 40th anniversary, so they decided to produce a few newly animated anime specials of some of their most popular works.

Thanks. Man it's been so long since I've heard about this.

Only 3 more days left, since Japan is 13 hours ahead of my time xD. Man I seriously can't wait! This is going to be so cool, I'm going to watch all three specials, I don't know anything about that Letter B one, but it wouldn't hurt to watch it.

Nice, when you open it, do you see anything? I get a browser open, but don't see a page.

shotkeeper: If you read the directions next to the browser download, I think it's saying that you click on the anime you want from your regular browser, and the Jumpland one will open automatically. Maybe it doesn't do anything until the movies are streaming though?

SonEric84: The download's only 1.8 MB, but once you install it it's 22.2 MB.

Oh ok thanks a lot. I hope that's the solution. I can't miss the chance of my life just because of a stupid computer. Also I hope there will be fansubs.

No. XP/Vista only. But you could use wine, or virtualization (e.g. Boot Camp, VMware, or Parallels).

BTW, where is your avatar from?

Yeah, I already tried most of those applications but they don't work on a Mac OS X Tiger PowerPC G5..., but the special probably is on the internet a few minutes or hours after it is released so it doesn't matter that much.

And the avatar is from Final Bout like VegettoEX already said.

Yes, downloaded it weeks ago, now just waiting patiently for it to be released ^^, and no I don't plan to figure out how to rip it so everyone can watch it, who doesn't have a pc (mac users). I'll leave that up to other people ;).

Does the browser change any of settings for any program? Or does it just affect how you can view the Jump website?

Thanks. I know Ultimate Battle 22 had an animation sequence like that, having bought it, but I didn’t realize there were any others. For a second there I thought it was a really good fan edit. :P

Wine should work on PowerPC-based Macs. You should try it out.

I know it’s off-topic, but have you played the game? If so, is it any fun? UB22 was fun in its own right, albeit somewhat… underwhelming. Wondering if the other Playstation games are any different.
