Maybe dubbed the original footage.

So I guess it's not a definitive release as some think and wish.

It wasn't really aimed at the Dub audience. Besides, I don't think FUNimation would re-dub 291 episodes of DBZ!

It's definitive to those of us who would rather have, as FUNimation puts it, the authentic Japanese DBZ experience.

For everyone else, the Orange Bricks and the Blu-rays seem to cover a large majority of the English-speaking fanbase. :D

Thank goodness the dub music is not on these boxes since some of the dialogue is mixed around and wrong in certain places on the boxes.

The dub was pretty much an afterthought with the DBox. Honestly, I could've gone with a marathon mode instead.

Ok finally watching the boxset (just got a HDTV & Upscaling DVD player) and just finished disk 1. Just wanna say HOLY CRAP THEM A-HOLES SHOT THEM OLD PEOPLE!!!. This is my first time watching it uncut and I honestly can't believe they did that, Shocking stuff indeed.

Also looks beautiful on my new TV :D

I just watched that episode on my Dragon Box a few days ago on my Blu-Ray player.

Don't worry those bastards get very satisfying deaths.

It is in his character to be rude and a bit crass. He's a hick, with no formal education. That is Son Goku. That is who he is.

Superman in an orange Gi was the bastard son of FUNimation. Its not The real character, it is as false as Chatku.

I watched all of the Dragon Boxes on my FullHD HDTV and wow, that was awesome, the quality was superb and loved it.

Really nice extra on Dragon Box 7, i.e, DBGT NEP #1. :)

Yeah, I guess it could have been better, but he got blasted into nothing at point blank range.
