You'll watch GT and not Kai? :shock:

What, he doesn't expect public info on the internet to travel?

Maybe its a hint that Toei is working on a remake of GT with less plot holes :P. I wish but I think it was just Sean Schemmel joking around.

I'm pretty sure he meant that people are only following him to get info, not that news travels.

Like we'd have any other reason to go to Sean Schemmel's Twitter page.

I know that I often ask myself, "Hmm, I wonder what that David Hasslehof-looking guy from Funimation is up to? I guess I'll check his Twitter!"

Did he take down that tweet, because I can't find it?

Edit: Nevermind, I did find it.

I think FUNimation just plans on redubbing the series which is totally fine by me, just use dragon box footage and we'll all be happy campers.

Btw... I just got the GT Complete Series set for Christmas. I certainly hope this is only a joke.

Guys, it's not happening. There is no chance of it happening. FUNimation won't redub the original Dragon Ball GT, either.

They'll do GT Kai then release a show called Dragon Ball Kai...

It's probably just a joke. But, that'd be great to have a Kai quality GT Dub.

I will no longer be revealing any DBZ related info here, because I think some people are here only to mine me for info for other websites. about 3 hours ago via web

If this was a joke, why wouldn't he just say it's a joke, rather than say he "will no longer be revealing any DBZ related info here"?

If it was a joke, I'd figure he'd have said by now "It's just a joke".

And I'm glad I don't own GT yet, lol.

Good point. I own GT a majority of the singles and both Season Sets. I know I'll end up buying it again, haha.

Hellspawn28 kind of beat me to the punch, but I had an idea a while back for a revised version of GT under the Kai moniker that, rather than trimming it down (what the hell would they get rid of?) got rid of plot inconsistencies like using movie villains and such.

Of course, it could also just be a new FUNimation dub...
This will never not be my sig:

I think he means that they're going to simply redub GT with the Kai cast, not shorten it or replace the music. Either that, or he's joking.

My dream would come true if Toei would.
- Reanimate everything
- New Story
- New *BETTER* Characters
- New design of pan....
- More Dramatic Entrance of SSJ4 Goku and Vegeta/ Gogeta.
- and last but not least an extended storyline.

If he was joking, it would be a cruel joke. As he said that comment in response to someone asking for new Dragon Ball content on Twitter.

He was right about Ocean dubbing Kai. Why not this? I imagine its a redub with the original 'touched up' dialogue to fill in some errors. Maybe sneak in some line of how Gohan can go ssj.

Never seen GT, but I want to. If they re-did it then guess that would be cool. Knowing Sean he's either flat out telling us something true (they love doing the show, if they could probably re-do it every year they would) or he's being his awesome self and messing with us.
