Dragon Ball Z Being Re-edited and Re-dubbed for HDTV

Yeah, I can tolerate animation-clashing with the themes, because they're pretty much separate entities from the actual episode, but the eyecatches just frustrate me.

That's all I've really gotten out of it, if they're going to do something like this they might as well go for it all the way.

Now if you'll excuse me, I am now going to go watch episode 001 for the third time today.

As soon as he landed, I noticed the sound was different and quality was better.

The energy sounds were different during the Freeza scene too.

I'm pretty sure we'll be getting new sound FX for the entire series.

Speaking of that Bardock flashback, was the whole thing from the TV special? Or was the part where Bardock is actually being killed from the flashback seen in the Freeza Arc of the TV series? That specific part seemed more like it was from the flashback in the TV series than the much better animated TV special...

That's exactly what I've been thinking. I feel it would've been better to just reanimate the show

It's probably overall too expensive a process for TOEI to reanimate the entire series even if it is digitally re-lining

So are we going to be getting a full version of "Dragon Soul" or are we just stuck with the short intro song. I'm starting to like it more and more every time I hear it.

Exce-fucking-llent! I think in one of my earlier posts I said it wasn't one of my favorites. I retract my previous statement.

Damn it, this is a very nice day in Dragonball history, but I still didn't see it. Can't wait for the raw in Hd or fansub in HD.

Just to make sure: Episode 2 is coming out at the same time next week, right? Because sometimes there are weeks where new episodes don't air.

Just making sure.

Nappa does not approve of being put on the same level as Raditz.

Erm... Well, you know, if he were still alive.

(Seriously, though, that's a cool shot.)

It's shots like that, that make me really want a newly re-drawn series!

There's a post on the V-Jump blog about the first episode, but it's mainly about that one commercial that we already knew about:

Raditz doesn't look like Raditz, he looks like Super Saiyan 4 Vegeta...
