Vegeta vs. Jeice image request

Post by Saiyajin and Juice » Wed Sep 26, 2012 7:24 pm

There are a few episodes in the Namek Saga where the quality of the footage is just ridiculously good, I think because they were recorded on film. It looked great in Kai, and I'm sure it looks amazing in the Dragon Boxes too. Anyway, at one point Vegeta and Jeice are fighting in a lot of red tinted clouds/explosions. Here is one moment from that:

I'd be grateful for any screenshots from these red cloud moments, but specifically multiple high res shots from 2:27 to 2:30 of this video would be really helpful. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B6H7ys4Wz7M

Thanks to anyone that can assist with this!

The whole series was recorded on film. The reason these episodes are so much sharper is because Toei has the 35mm film negatives for these episodes, whereas the rest of the series is only on 16mm film.

I'm hoping someone with the Kai Blu-rays can get you your shots. :)

Interesting, it's really a shame then that they don't have the 35mm film negatives for every episode.
PERFECT! Thank you, this is exactly what I had in mind. Probably my favorite piece of art from the entire series run...

The Saiyan Saga has the best picture quality of the entire series.

That cap of Vegeta coming out of the blast is pretty awesome.

I figured I'd ask this here instead of starting another minuscule thread, does anyone know where to find the chapter title pages in high resolution? Kanzentai used to have them all, but they are not available now on the media section of the Kanzenshuu main page. Mainly looking for the colored title pages like this one:

Any images of the Tankobon covers would be cool too, all these watercolory style pieces of art really make for good source images to look at.

Sorry can't quite agree with your opinion, but it's definitely great, the best for me was on the Namek arc and Friеza arc. After these three, I feel like the PQ dropped a lot afterwards.

Better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than to open it and remove all doubt.
