"DragonBall Z Kai" TV Broadcast Talkback

[dragonpiece]

According to Chris Sabat, Sean Schemmel, and a few people who responded when they pointed this out, Nicktoons seems to be airing sort of "Behind the Scenes" bits with some of their VAs for Kai, though I don't know when. Nobody seems to have recorded any either, so I haven't seen myself, but apparently, they're out there.

I saw the promo myself last week, I was wondering if anyone would point this out. Basicly, it was just Sean Schemmel,Chris Sabat and Justin Cook talking about what Dragon Ball Z Kai is and how the plot is like a roller coaster that never stops. It really isn't anything you haven't hear about already. If you care though that much, the tv screen they were recording during it had Goku in the spaceship.

Also for what Super Sonic said, it isn't a tv special or anything. At most is lasted for 1 minute. It really isn't nothing to get excited about. They did this with Fairy Odd Parents,Iron Man,Avatar and Xmen. No big deal.

So...Anyone else ready to see the first episode of DBZKai's dub as edited for 4Kids' TV block? I got my DVR ready for this...moment...in history.

It's this coming Saturday at 10 AM central, according to my guide, btw.

I simply cannot wait. Edited beyond edited - Kai is the first case I've ever seen this happen to an anime. I guess if you want to count Kai's early editing from Z, then it was edited three times.

That's just impressive.

Wait, so it's going to be an edited version (Z -> Kai Sub/Uncut Dub), of an edited version (Nicktoons) to be a triple edited version? Damn. Well, I don't know how to respond. Wasn't the editing for Nicktoons enough? I mean I know asking that is dumb given 4Kids track record; but, still.

[Innagadadavida]

Nobody said for sure that there would be edits. The only thing anyone has said was that "if there are futher edits, it will be because the network mandated them."

It's possible that the edited version we have right now will do well enough. Although it will be quite humorous if they gave Mr. Famer a pop-gun.

[Budogenkai]

I haven't been watching a lot of Kai on TV, but my friend heard of that Behind the Scenes promo they were showing, didn't know if he was kidding around.

About Kai on CW4kids, that's gonna be something.

That's true, though since the standards between cable and broadcast still have some differences, it's possible we're going to at least see a few. Granted, I don't know exactly what they could still edit out, since the edited version that exists now is...rather edited enough, they'll always find something. Usually it's something nonsensical.

They could rename it "Dragon Friends Z Heart" =/

I didn't realize it was this Saturday but now I got it recorded on my PVR and am all ready to see this triple edited show.

Well I am guessing that 4Kids will take out the chocolate milk blood completely and stuff such as that.

I would totally watch that, and I know many of us here would do the same. Morbid curiosity rules us all. =P

[El Diabeetus]

Even though it doesn't reveal much, pretty common knowledge; but, interesting nonetheless. I went and recorded the promo from Nicktoons mentioned in the upper posts.

You few who are planning on watching this travesty are just setting yourselves up to rage. Really? Why would you watch another 4kids dub?

[Metalwario64]

Why would you watch another 4kids dub?

It's not a 4Kids! dub... It's still FUNimation's dub. We are simply curious to see what's been edited, if anything at all.

woa woa woa there. W/e. If it's FUNI or 4kids, it's still going to be played on 4kids station, so it might as well be...DBZKai is edited enough as it is don't you think? They edit out any trace of blood and even replace the color of it with a grayish shade. How much more can they edit away?

[Super Sonic]

Will have to say as Kai's a Jump series other than Ultimate Muscle, things look bad for it on 4Kids channel.

I want to watch it on 4kids for fun and to laugh at it. Plus its the only way in Canada to watch it on TV (only if you have a Digital Cable box though).

As mentioned above, it's just curiosity.

Seriously man, you really need to be more informed, it kinda blew my mind someone even said the 4Kids broadcast would have a 4Kids dub.

And really, it is out of curiosity to see what, if any, additional edits CW made FUNi make.
But in reality? Why would anyone rage? I see no point in anyone getting butthurt over the edits, when:
1) You could easily just buy the DVD or Blu-ray
2) Buy the Dragon Box and watch the original in all its uncut glory. Staggeringly slow paced as it may be.

The only time I see people bitch about Kai on a American standpoint, is on Twitter or YouTube; with people complaining that "Its too edited" or "The new voices suck".

[Budogenkai]

I'm mainly interested in watching the 4kids version just to see how heavy they are still editing shows.

They haven't edited a show in a while, so it'll be interesting to see how they handle it.

Oh and thanks SSJ4 Furanki for showing that clip, pretty interesting to see that.

[penguintruth]

I, too, am interested in seeing the censored version of an censored version of an already censored show. I wonder how much more edited it can get. Perhaps it will just be the opening and closing credits. Though to be fair, that's probably the best part of Kai.
