All rigged up on my 47" HDTV, and it actually looks pretty damn good! I've got the audio going through my sound system, and unfortunately there's a slight buzzing sound, but otherwise this is amazing! Man, I really wish I knew about this program before. I can't believe I'm actually starting to get anxious over this, I mean, I'm actually really fucking excited! :lol:

These are the longest two hours of my life. :(
Yamcha: Do you remember the spell to release him - do you know all the words?
Bulma: Of course! I'm not gonna pull a Frieza and screw it up!
Master Roshi: Bulma, I think Frieza failed because he wore too many clothes!

I'm also waiting, watching these Japanese shows and ads are entertaining :P. Oh and you can see the Dream 9 commercial sometimes, I'm sure it will show more often as it closes in for DragonBall Kai. I'm so excited, I'm actually going to be able to watch my two favorite animes on tv live! xD

I just got KeyHole TV, and it seems I need a password to watch Fuji TV. What is it? :?

Edit: Don't worry, found one that doesn't need a password.

This waiting is torture... I sure hope Kai doesn't start on the dot; It might take a minute or two to switch from TV Tokyo to Fuji TV, and I don't want to miss a second of that new OP.

By OP do you mean One Piece? Kai and One Piece are airing on the same channel, aren't they?
Kanzenshuu: Is that place still around?

I think he means openeing, since he'll be switching to Fuji TV right at 9, and doesn't want to miss the beginning. I think that's what he means.

Yes, I think One Piece airs right after DBK at nine-thirty.

Is that really footage from the series?! The animation in that Kaio-Ken scene seemed totally difference from any of the other commercials, and I think it would seem really out of place in the flow of the show.

I don't think so. It looks like brand new animation just made for the commercial. Definately not in the style of the original series (or at least from what I could tell).

It's probably footage from the opening.
