"Plan to Eradicate the Super Saiyans" Official Discussion

[Coola Yagami]

Though, did they really have to reference Broli in the movie? :S

When was this???

[JulieYBM]

Gokû mentions that Hatchihyakku is more powerful than Broli around the time he learns of his weakness.

[penguintruth]

Why don't people point out the hundreds of errors from the original episodes? Every episode at least has 100 mistakes.

The original was made decades ago.

[Chibi Mystic Gohan]

Gokû mentions that Hatchihyakku is more powerful than Broli around the time he learns of his weakness.

He said that same line in the original, for the record. It had nothing to do with Broli's massive fanbase.

[Piccolo Daimaoh]

I liked the movie itself. The subtitles, on the other hand... dub names, left-aligned (as opposed to center-aligned), and too many subtitled "graaah!" and "ahhhh!"s for my taste.

You said it. It's not enough that they didn't dub it, but they had to fuck up the subtitles aswell.

[Cold Cobra]

I enjoyed it, sure it was all action and little-to-no plot, but hey... it was new Dragon Ball! Just for that I'll enjoy it for the next few watches, when ever they'll be. If this thread still exists in a few years I'll be able to look at it by itself without the glow of "New Dragon Ball!!" on it...

[GS7X7]

As long as this is being remastered Ramza should remaster his "Am I Evil" video.

[Makaioshin]

The art was a bit weak at times but its worst was nowhere near as bad as the worst art in the original version. The score was also much, much better. And while the original dragged on and on this one seemed much too fast with the heroes knowing about the gas almost instantaneously, Vegeta correctly assuming that a member of a thought be extinct race was behind the whole thing, and skipping the whole voyage to the Dark Planet. Overall it was better than the original but still wasn't good forgetting that its new Dragon Ball animation. But hey, its a pretty cool for a bonus feature.

I don't like how they had huge gaps between events...Like when they destroyed the first machine, they instantly jump to the dark planet...

Haha, no. The only way you'll get one of those is if you "hug" an admin.

Well, you won't find it here. Or should I say, you not find here.

Oh boy..


So back to the topic at hand...it's only 30 minutes long? Does the pacing feel rushed since it's only about 8-9 minutes longer than a standard anime episode? It's a little sad that there seems to be so many animation mistakes (as minor as they may be) considering this is the first new animation in what, two years?

[Ahiru77]

PtEtSS was really awesome.

- The animation was really neat when they were fighting.
- I'm really glad they kept the Mecha Freeza part in it. Even newcomers will know the truth now. As if they wanted to make up for RB1.
- Bulma proved her worth, yay!!
- Guess who revealed the solution ?....a really nice bit there. They even "action-replay"-ed it for you.

And the magic word for this special was DODGE!!! You'll know when.
I think you can see that effort was put in to this and I like it better than the old one. They showed history, comedy and the real power of teamwork.

[SHINOBI-03]

I bought the game, and the first thing I did was watching the movie.

The pacing was better at the beginning, but felt rushed when they went to Lychee's planet. Like they've skipped a scene or something.

I liked the usage of the NES version's map sound effect with the machine. And I really liked how they handled the ghosts scene.

And of course, the soundtrack. It was waaaaaay better than the original and felt like a genuine DBZ movie. Especially at the beginning of Hatchiyack's fight and they all seemed to be loosing. Totally loved it.

You know, instead of forcing you to look at the rules of the forum, I'm just going to post this video as my answer to that post:
Nope.avi

Anyways, back on topic:

So back to the topic at hand...it's only 30 minutes long?

Actually, 29 minutes and 21 seconds to be exact. I timed it. But yeah, it's close to the half hour mark, so Namco-Bandai wasn't lying about that!

[Chibi Mystic Gohan]

Well, I watched it. It was actually pretty good! The part where Bulma pops up out of nowhere and saves the day was pretty odd, but everything else was just fine. They cut out all of the bullshit from the original OVA.

The music was really good, too. Especially the track that played during the final attack. I miss some of the original OVA music, believe it or not, such as the haunting organ-sounding piece that played while Hatchhyack was being formed, or the end credits song.

I give "Plan to Eradicate the Super Saiyans" a 7/10.

[Choice195]

I hated it... The original was awesome, they fucked up the remake.

[Travis Touchdown]

So did the FUNimation cast dub it or is it just subbed?

No dub has been released.
