I want to know who the (*&%^)*&%#^#) thought it was a good idea to put every single ad sticker on the actual sleeve of the blurays? Why exactly was that a good idea? So people can rip them off and either leave the sticker behind or tear the sleeve?

Someone PLEASE explain that to me?

I'll take that as you share my anger?


...or was that sarcasm? But yes, theres the pricetag sticker, and a clear sticker on the back, then a HUGE banner across the front about "All action, no filler".

I'm aware of all that, I don't need a messed up front sleev to remind me.

Well I haven't seen it yet.
I'm still kinda of conflicted on whether or not I'll continue to buy Kai since I'm buying the Dragon Boxes.
I still feel its the same show but blah another discussion.

I hate peeling even just the price stickers off and it SUCKS because I buy Kai at Wal-Mart because its actually pretty cheap there but a huge banner sticker? Ouch

I bought mine from BestBuy. I'm sure there are other way of peeling the stickers off; but what I do is get the tinyiest bit of one corner peeled up and then breath hot air on it to 'melt the glue' [like of like you would to fog up a window]' and slowly peel the sticker off little by little. I just got all 3 stickers off without any damee to the sleeve.

I just watched this unboxing video and I have one question. Why did they stick the sticker on the front of the actual cardboard box?

I recommend using Goo Gone or a blow dryer to get that sticker to get it off (if it is stuck on there tightly).

LMAO! I was just about to post that unboxing.
I was pretty interested in the sleeve, nice to see both Zarbon and Dedoria on it.

Yeah, I really liked the way the back of the sleeve looked. I wish the person who did the unboxing pulled out the cover art.

I hate that! I get it, it's uncut and all that jazz. It's such an annoying process and ends up ruining the sleeve. However, thankfully I get them at a point where the glue isn't completely stuck on there. Sometimes I get things where the glue is too strong and pieces are left over. My thing is I get all the security tags off and on almost every Season Set, there's a big piece of the Dragon's picture ripped off from where the security tag was ripped off. Hate that crap.

Finally, someone shares my pain. If you're reading this, EB Games, fuck you! :P

What ? Part 2 has Dodoria and Zarbon pictured inside!! like the Part 2 DVDs! Why is not Raditz on Part 1 pictured alongside with Vegeta ??? And they should put the "all action" sticker on a plastic film outside the slipcase cover!
At the moment FUNi puts the plastic film only onto the blu-ray amaray case but it would be much better if they put it onto the slipcase cover and on this plastic film the "all action" sticker maybe with the "made in mexico" sticker on the backside, too. And the decision that FUNi puts on the EXTRAS section different openings is :twisted: !!!

FUNimation should better plan a constant LAYOUT for their DBZKai Releases!!!
The word "KAI" means in the old North Germanic language Frisian "Kämpfer engl. Fighter" respectively "Krieger engl. Warrior"!

I picked up my DVD copy at Best Buy this past Tuesday. I actually had to go digging for it. There were no copies out anywhere. I was lucky enough to move another anime DVD and there it was behind it. The only copy in the store was hidden. Maybe someone hid it and intended on coming back. I know I have done that before.

Anyway, I have watched disc one and the English dub continues to impress. I have to say though, although I have, and have watched all of part 1, the new Gohan voice still caught me off guard for some reason. I guess Stephanie Nadolny's Gohan is just embedded in my brain.


I think I will pick Kai up on Blu Ray if they ever release a boxed set. But as for now, since I don't have a blu ray player, I will stick with DVD.
