I'm really surprised this episode got a higher rating than the previous episode, considering the last episode was full of action and this one was mostly dialogue. Maybe the kids in Japan just don't like action these days?!
Interesting. Or maybe it's just random.
If challenge had a taste, you'd be quite delicious.

Maybe the censoring brought the attention of some people and they figured this episode would be the same

I really like Kai. I think it's awesome, it seems to be going at a good pace. It's really good for people getting into DBZ at this stage. The voice actors are still so full of life. Since Kai is just going to be a hundred episodes, it's easier for one to just watch a hundred episodes instead of all 276 whenever one would want to watch some DBZ. I really don't see what people are complaining about.

The only thing I could complain about is that celebrating 20 years could have been done by making 3 or 4 animated movies instead of just a re-dub and a canon version of the Anime like Kai. Apart from that I'm totally digging it.

That's what I'm assuming.

If FUNI does get this, does anyone think it will air on TV? If so what channel? The only 3 I can think of is CN, AS, or Sci-Fi. Watch it go to Nick or Disney. :lol: It could go to Disny XD I guess. LOL

FUNimation Video, or nothing, as far as I can foresee.

This may have been mentioned before but this week DBK got a 11.1 rating and One Piece got a 11.7. The power hour is freaking dominating.

Those ratings are insane! Even a 4 rating is considered good.
