In a similar shot from a similar time period in the series, Gohan appears to be that size as well.

Just a thought.


P.S. -- That's not a bootleg set. That's a custom set someone made for themselves.

Is that an extra "with" before #18?

I don't remember #16 being that gigantic though.

I was more talking about the front two rows with Goku and the other heroes. The rest was added onto the original piece.

I don't really mind the Anoyo-ichi Budokai reference. I am, however, annoyed at the recap. Why just include Kai? I would have loved to see a recap of the entire series. I guess the recap was merely added in for filling time. Or they didn't have enough time to add in a montage covering all of Dragon Ball.
So mondo lame.

I just wanna throw this out there, thanks to Puto I put up a gallery of screen shots from episode 98 from the Blu-ray!

It's pretty awesome that this episode is full of flashbacks, you get to see a lot of scenes from different episodes in Blu-ray glory!

This upcoming month is going to be DBZ Kai Season One and Season Two's turn and then the last part of the Parts' version, Part Eight.

I seriously thought about purchasing the DBZ Kai Season sets for Kikuchi's music but it's too repetitive just like on Cell's arc.

Toonzai's dub uses/used the temporary replacement sound which was a lot better (BGM from Boo's arc) than hearing Cell's BGMs constantly.

Isn't anime/Blu-rays quite expensive over there?

It honestly depends on what exactly the content is.

The Orange Bricks and Remastered GT Seasons at normal retail will run for about $49.99 NZD and the Blu-Rays of Z go for $39.99 while the Kai parts run for about $36 - 38 with the double features behind at about $16.99.

And then there is stuff like the One Piece collections which go for $49.99, yeesh.

*sigh* I'm at least glad we actually do get Anime sold here so I don't have to resort to piracy but the prices are ridiculous.

This is spoiler-ish but what did Mr. Simmons translate Goku on the subtitles at the end of Bonus Episode 98?

I remember seeing a fansub of BE #98 with "Until we meet again!", well, it makes sense since DB games are a yearly thing, so it's fitting.

I finally got around to watching this one today and I really enjoyed it. Not sure why Nicktoons wouldn't air it. It ended the series the way it should have, since they were going for ending it with Cell. I really like the very end when they re-animated the sequance from the original DBZ.

I think it was the same thing, 'Until we meet again."

Probably about time someone un-stickied this and the Ep 97 thread, eh?
