For the third time: same guy. I've been talking with him over YT about how well received the music seems to be, and he's glad as he thought it was too cheesy. Contact the man yourself with an comments or suggestions.
Well, I figured that it was the same guy. What I'm saying is that it sounds like the same song.

By the way, what's his YouTube account? I'll hit him up after subscribing to him.
Bah, sorry. Shouldn't have been as grouchy. Anyhow: http://www.youtube.com/user/welchcompositions

Thanks. No worries on the grouchy bit. I didn't take it personally. :D

God, I'm making up nicknames for them now! :shock:
Sounds pretty cool, here's hoping that whatever FUNimation rep comes on the show will be able to clarify some details regarding the release as to how many audio tracks will be included (I'm still guessing two), a release timetable, availability, stuff like that.

Since everyone's gone and sent in letter, I'll post my post from Toon Zone's FUNimation Rep thread: http://forums.toonzone.net/showpost.php ... count=3556
Heya Rojas/Lance,

I'm sure you've already received a copious amount of emails on this already, but I also throw my hand in for extending the DBOX disc count from seven episodes on six discs to six episodes on seven discs. It'll help the quality of the picture and will neatly match the Japanese single DVD release if you guys wanted to take that cover art for the disc art.

Also, which English track will be selectable? The English with Japanese score, English with broadcast score, or both? Truthfully, I think it's time for the English with Japanese score to be the sole track (and preferably in 5.1) but alas...that's out of my hands.

Also, will there be a marathon feature available? Thanks a bunch!!

Sincerely,
Jacob!

There "should" be a Marathon feature. If I remember correctly, the Japanese Dragon Boxes had pretty much the same feature called "Story Mode".

The Dragon Boxes' version of Marathon Feature is Story Mode.
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!

Yeah, I'm just making sure something like that is retained.

Man, when I get my copy...it's gonna be hours of this stuff!!

Well, I was looking through my old laptop and came across a bunch of old videos I had forgotten about. I decided to throw these up since they seem relevant at the moment. All the other videos I found will make their way up eventually.

So, I just came back from Night 0 at Comic-con, and they had the DBox on display in the corner of the booth, all alone, nobody caring for it. I saw the cover of the book, which says "Dragonbook" on top just like the Japanese one, but the cover was Vegeta in the style similar to Kanzenban #16. Sadly, on my way, I realized I forgot my camera for the 2nd year in a row, but it looks awesome!

I should just pimp-slap your for that. :evil:

Was Vegeta in the same pose as Kanzenban 16 or was it just a similar art style? If it isn't form the Kanzenban, I wonder where they got a Saiyan-era Vegeta picture in the proper art style.

Didn't you know? The Dragon Box's remastering is so extensive that it even makes people who stand near it look better.
