I was skeptical at first, but now I'm curious to see how this turns out.

They wanna turn up hours late and steal the show from the pros who had to die for the name." - Yamcha (DBWTF: Z-Rap 3)

"Over saturation is easy. Just drag the slider to the right and there you are: instant interest. And certainly, the majority of the public likes saturated color images. In fact, if you want to quickly create a popular image, simply over saturate the colors and increase the contrast. While you may not achieve a sophisticated image, you will achieve an image that will please a less demanding audience." - Alain Briot

I'm quite impressed by this! The NEP flowed very well! Just a couple of things to bare in mind though:
- The UT cut scene of Gohan powering up was a little jarring due to the different style of the Budokai openings
- The 'Seven Year Time Skip' sounds a little too...'fanboy-ish' for an episode title. Perhaps something along the lines of one of the Manga chapter titles would fit better.

I liked it too very much but hearing h-word's name bothered me, if possible use Mr. Satan, SRB2. :)

Well you know how the uncut version of the dub used both Hercule AND Satan (and Hercule-Satan at times) but at the time of editing the NEP I wasn't even considering the fact.

This all looks pretty good! I'm loving the intro, too! 0:16-0:20 is a bit choppy, though. It feels kind of laggy compared to the rest.

Can't wait to see the first episode!

Since this is a fan-arc, you could edit and make the characters only use Mr. Satan than the h-word name.

It's not fully uncut if it features the censored name.

Thanks for the effort of making a Boo Kai-ish arc. :)

I'm amazed and gratefully surprised at how seamless this all is! :shock:

Obviously you can't have Goku announce the episode titles, but take the right quotes from the episode and that won't matter too much.

And Chaser, finally!

Just a question:
Where did you get the Orange Hero Instrumental?

Wait, did I miss something? Which video is this in? Oh, and it was probably done on Audacity or something.

That would be impossible with some characters. Goku never even refers to Satan by anything other than the H-word. Unless audio is ripped from DBZ Kai of Goku saying "Mr. Satan" (assuming it ever comes up) and is synched accordingly. But even then, the inflection could make things sound lulzworthy, and Schemmel clearly doesn't sound as young as he did in DBZ. Pretty much anyone else who doesn't utter "Mr. Satan" would need to be redubbed by a fandubber.

The Orange Hero instrumental is from a fan-made video on YouTube. Here's the link:

Hey. First of all I just want to say I'm looking forward to seeing the results of this project. I'm really enjoying what you've done so far - the next episode preview was amazing and looks like it was professionally done so congrats for that!!

My only concern though is the whole legal aspect of the project. Obviously you don't own the material you're using and unlike Team Four Star you don't have the parody defense. I'm presuming you won't be able to post the episodes on YouTube so will we see them on your site???

I just wanted to mention this cause no one else has as of yet and I'd hate for you to do all this work and then get shut down or even worse have legal action taken against you...

First new episodes will be stream (can't exactly say where the stream is cause that's against the rules) then the same night or weekend the episodes will be available on the site and for download.

It'll be 480p and 720p, just these two, right?

I don't see the use of 1080p unless it's going to make use of its potential resolution/quality, otherwise it's like those morons from YouTube just god damn upscale everything to 1080p/2K and call it "True HD". :lol:

Just 720p, 480p, I'll see about that.

If you're using Dragon Box footage, I don't see a point in using anything besides 480p.

Well I do a 'remaster' that has it sharper and no grain, and (even though both videos are deleted off of YouTube now) when I did a test 720p looked better than 480p

You're not going to just use the Kenji Yamamoto tracks from Kai, but also from Burst Limit, Raging Blast 2 and the Budokai series (+ others not mentioned) for the Majin Boo Kai arc?

The Yamamoto Kai tracks have been overused and would be nice to hear other Yamamoto pieces on a Kai-ish Boo series (just to not get too repetitive).
