Ok, so no links here. That is clear.

BUT: can we make a semi-casual general statement like "the new episode for DBKAI is on the well known torrent sites" or something like that?

No link is given this way, and people are informed.

Well, that's just common sense. Saying there's anime on a BitTorrent tracker is like saying the sky is blue.

That says 「次週予告」, which means "next episode preview". Check out page 70.
Since I can watch it, I guess that you can't access the video exept people in Japan.

You just used the .wmv file kei17 gave us and upscaled it, right? Or did he give you an actual HD version? Either way, thanks for posting it in such good quality!

I took it, threw it in WMM, and then published it using the this method.

Does Fuji TV have and HD channel? Like how channels like ESPN have a standard broadcast channel, and then an HD channel that broadcasts the same thing at the same time in actual HD?

Fuji TV does have both an analog and a digital channel. You may notice in TVants that it says "アナログ/Analog" in the upper right hand corner of the stream.

That's good.

Anyway, I found this cool video that features just the 14 seconds of BGM from that first Kai trailer, without the voices:

jurikavantasia posted a videoof a clean version of the complete BGM piece used in all of the commercials so far, with the voices and sound FX's removed.

I know what you're thinking, and I've already asked him about an .mp3 version, so I'll let you know what he says when he gets back to me. *crosses fingers*

Those "clean versions" aren't clean at all--somebody just ran them through a program with a vocal removal effect. It's removing various bits of the song's actual waveform, and messes with the volume at multiple points in the song. It sounds like shit, basically.

The only way you're getting a "clean rip" of that song from the preview alone is if you manage to get the vocals themselves from some other source and subtract the waves from the recording in the video. Outside of that, you're going to want to wait until you can get a recording from the actual show or something once it airs.

Yeah, I know it's nothing great, but it's the best we have thing we have so far. Can you do any better? Until you do come up with anything better, I don't think it's right to talk shit.

Less than twenty hours!! I'm so pumped, best idea for a new Dragon Ball series that could have ever been conceived! I'd like to watch it live but I'll be away from the desk and my internet is ridiculously slow anyway.
In any case, tomorrow begins a new run of Dragon Ball hype that I can't wait to dive into.
